🎧️ Listen Why Fasting Isn’t A Fad: Discover The Surprising Health Benefits How fasting can improve your metabolism, hormones and overall well-being while helping you burn fat, preserve muscle and boost longevity.

Fasting correctly can boost your metabolism by promoting fat burning and improving metabolic health. Insulin, the fat storage hormone, makes it difficult to lose weight when levels are high. Intermittent fasting (IF) can help lower fasting insulin levels, making it easier to lose weight and prevent or even reverse type 2 diabetes.

Most people can benefit from 12-16 hour daily fasts. This could mean finishing dinner around 7 p.m. and not eating until around 9 a.m. the next day. This type of moderate intermittent fasting also works wonders for your digestive system, allowing it to rest and reset.

📽️ Watch Is Fructose a Driver of Alzheimer’s Disease? Research shows that Alzheimer’s is driven by insulin resistance in the brain, often referred to as type 3 diabetes. By eliminating sugars, processed foods, and high-carbohydrate diets, we can protect against the development of Alzheimer’s as well as many other chronic diseases. We have the power to prevent chronic conditions such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s through the choices we make with what we put on our fork.

💡 Know 93% of Americans are metabolically unhealthy, and more than a third of U.S. adults have pre-diabetes. If you’re reading this, there’s a good chance you might fall into that category!

Poor metabolic health is at the root of most chronic diseases, including cancer, Alzheimer’s, diabetes, and heart disease.

Symptoms of poor metabolic health include:

Fatigue

Brain fog

Depression and anxiety

Lack of endurance

Infertility

Hair loss or balding

Erectile dysfunction

Acne

Chronic pain

Increased appetite

Hormonal imbalances

Insomnia, and more.

The good news? Metabolic health is entirely influenced by our lifestyle. This means we can improve it through daily habits, enabling us to feel incredible today while preventing the onset of metabolic-related chronic diseases (which account for most chronic illnesses). Here’s how:

Focus on a real, whole foods diet.
Prioritize organic proteins, vegetables, healthy fats (nuts, seeds, olive oil, avocado), and low-glycemic fruits like berries. Limit processed foods, sugars, and refined carbs like pasta, bread, and baked goods.

Move your body!
Aim for 10,000-15,000 steps daily and integrate resistance training into your routine using bands, weights, or body weight.

Get quality sleep.
Aim for 7-9 hours of restorative sleep each night.

Limit toxin exposure.
Avoid plastics when possible, switch to non-toxic beauty and personal care products, and invest in air and water filters.

Manage stress effectively.
Practice meditation, journaling, mindful breathing, and nurture your relationships and community. Chronic stress can raise blood sugar and is linked to insulin resistance.

Practice early dinners and avoid late-night snacking.
Finish dinner by 6 or 7 p.m. and skip nighttime snacks. This can improve your sleep, stabilize blood sugar, enhance digestion, and promote fat burning.
