Last week we explained that metabolic flexibility is when your body is able to burn both stored glycogen and stored body fat for energy.  When it can do this, you are considered metabolically flexible.  When it cannot, your body can only burn glycogen, which leaves your body fat ON your body, usually becoming more inflamed and more numerous, which over time, usually ends up leading to weight gain, prediabetes, fatty liver, heart disease, diabetes, obesity and more. Naturally, if we are alive, we want to LIVE, not just survive.  So, how do you FIX Metabolic Inflexibility?  How do we prevent it? That’s what this episode is all about.
