5 Reasons Metabolism Impacts Your Health

Here’s the shocking truth: 88% of Americans have metabolic dysfunction

What is Metabolic Dysfunction?

Metabolic dysfunction happens when your body's normal metabolic processes are disrupted. This dysfunction affects multiple aspects of health - from nutrient absorption and energy levels to weight management and heart health. Not addressing this dysfunction can put you at increased risk of health conditions like heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease, and liver disease.

Signs of Metabolic Dysfunction

A combo of lifestyle components influences your metabolic health, and a metabolic dysfunction can stem from various factors like diet, lack of exercise, gut health, stress, etc. You might have a metabolic dysfunction if you:

  • Feel tired all of the time no matter how much sleep you get
  • Struggle with gaining weight and/or losing weight
  • Have intense food and sugar cravings
  • Experience frequent bloating and digestive issues
  • Have constant skin issues like dryness or acne
  • Have high cholesterol and/or blood sugar levels
Now let's explore how metabolism impacts your health

5 Reasons Metabolism Impacts Your Health

1. Producing Energy

Metabolism is your body's energy factory. It converts food into energy, powering everything from breathing to thinking. A slow metabolism can make you feel tired and sluggish, affecting your ability to stay active and alert all day.

2. Maintaining Healthy Weight

Your metabolism controls how your body burns calories, impacting weight gain or loss. A slow metabolism makes it hard to lose fat, while a fast one helps burn more calories even at rest, preventing weight gain.

3. Regulating Blood Sugar

Your metabolism regulates blood sugar by turning carbs into glucose. This keeps your cells fueled and prevents blood sugar spikes and crashes. A healthy metabolism means steady energy and a lower risk of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

4. Maintaining Healthy Heart & Cholesterol

Metabolism helps manage cholesterol, key for heart health. It regulates HDL ("good") and LDL ("bad") cholesterol levels, reducing plaque buildup in arteries and cutting the risk of cardiovascular disease.

5. Controlling Cravings

Metabolism affects your appetite by signaling hunger or fullness to your brain. Hormones like ghrelin and leptin, which are involved in appetite regulation, are influenced by metabolism. A healthy metabolism balances these hormones, reducing cravings and promoting fullness after meals.
