Why Metabolic Health?
Metabolic health is how effectively your body uses the fuel it receives to maintain optimal levels of blood glucose, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, and blood pressure.
Metabolic dysfunction can lead to serious health conditions including diabetes, heart disease, stroke, liver disease, and cognitive decline.
Metabolic dysfunction can lead to insulin resistance, a state where your cells no longer respond well to insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar.
Insulin resistance sets the stage for chronic inflammation, weight gain, and chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
The Link Between Metabolic Health and Inflammation
Chronic inflammation and metabolic health are closely connected. Inflammation, which occurs when your immune system is in a prolonged state of alert, can disrupt insulin sensitivity and fat storage processes. This leads to a vicious cycle where poor metabolic health fuels more inflammation, and inflammation worsens metabolic function.
