Powering your future now….. and for a very long time.
Powering your future toward a vibrant, robust and long life is within your reach.
Fat gain and metabolic disease, most often go hand in hand, BUT metabolic disease can exist without being overweight and being overweight does not always represent poor metabolic health. The first step is to read the article on this website titled, ‘Do you have metabolic syndrome.”
As far as metabolic disease is concerned, the NIH has stated that 88% of adult Americans are NOT in optimal metabolic health. The sooner all of us understand how to prevent and, yes, how to reverse metabolic disease, the healthier and longer we can live. Metabolic disease effects the following: cardiovascular disease; strokes; vision; type 2 diabetes; malignancies of the kidney, gall bladder, colon and prostate; eclampsia; cognitive performance and higher medical bills. (National Institute of Health, Swarup S, Goyal A, Grigorova Y, et al. Nov 2020)
The reason I say it is within your reach is because, the two most important things that fix metabolic syndrome or disease are nutritional decisions and exercise decisions. Yes, you may need help from your medical team, but all the really beneficial fixes are under your control. The decisions you make and the actions you take will directly impact the quality of your life. Become a student and study about how exercise and nutrition effect your body. Learn why resistance training is critical, learn how to do VO2 max and Zone 2 training. Learn how to be stabile and nimble. Learn what a gram of protein is so when your coach says to you to eat more protein, you know what that looks like. Learn the value of fiber. Learn the difference between saturated fat and say, olive oil. Learn what energy balance means. Learn what you can do to help prevent dimentia and cardiovascular disease. Learn how to make your food environment better so you always have easy to access health foods. Learn how to read food labels. Learn the difference between added sugars and natural sugars protected by fiber.
We have at our disposal, plenty of YouTube, Instagram and Facebook type information but we also have unlimited access to real scientist, physicians, researchers and true experts to help us. Embrace being a student of your SELF and live a robust, sexy, vibrant and exciting life, for a very long time.
Understand metabolic disease and it and stop it! The sooner the better!
