In middle age and beyond, your metabolism changes. It’s easier to gain weight - particularly around your midsection - and it’s very hard to lose it. The same foods that kept you lean when young suddenly cause imbalance. Why? What changed? Aging creates a cascade of changes, but insulin resistance is a key driver that is rarely measured or understood. On this week’s podcast, you’ll meet a health provider whose work is focused on tackling this issue, particularly in older adults.
Listen and learn:
- Why fasting insulin tests are not common but easy to get
- Why we have less wiggle room, metabolically in middle age and beyond
- How stress, sleep, and nutrition all play a role in metabolic dysfunction
- Why your standard blood work might miss insulin resistance
