Assess your Health Status
Most people believe that as we grow older disease is inevitable. Middle-age is not a reason to suffer from high-blood pressure, weight gain, diabetes, cancer or dementia. Even if you present with any of these conditions, you can do something about it. Are you happy to accept more and more prescription medication to treat your symptoms as the years go by or would you like to deal with it right now?
WHAT IS METABOLIC HEALTH?
Like a car, your body runs like a finely tuned engine. Everything works well if you look after it. With an unhealthy lifestyle, such as eating a standard Western diet, your cells and tissues run low on energy, leading to a poor metabolic state called insulin resistance. In time this often results in chronic diseases ….
