Addressing Metabolic Health Concerns
Are you experiencing metabolic syndrome, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, hypertension, high cholesterol, coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes, or have family history of coronary artery disease? Our team won’t ever say “Exercise more, Eat less”. We will tailor specific training recommendations to help maximize your metabolic health in order to feel healthy no matter how you age.
Biochemical Foundations: Understanding Energy Metabolism
Understanding the intricacies of biochemistry is essential before delving into strategies for preventing cardiovascular disease or aiding in weight loss. The body primarily derives energy from three sources: carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, with mitochondria serving as the powerhouses of cells responsible for harnessing this chemical energy. Healthy mitochondria are crucial for generating sustainable energy. How a person can utilize and burn these 3 forms of energy will either make them metabolically healthy or efficient or metabolically unhealthy or inefficient.
Optimizing Metabolic Health: The Role of Exercise
Individuals vary in their ability to metabolize fat and carbohydrates. Long periods of low-intensity exercise, known as Zone 2 training, is the most powerful longevity tool to favor fat utilization over glycolysis. This exercise promotes the creation of more efficient mitochondria and the recycling of inefficient ones through mitophagy.
Tailored Recommendations for Metabolic Flexibility
Once you have improved your metabolic flexibility and mastered your age specific Zone 2 and Zone 5 training, we will then discuss weight loss medications.
