The Primal Shift - A podcast by Michael Kummer - Wednesdays

Categories:

If you listened to the last episode about metabolic health and realized you’re not healthy, this episode is for you.   I share that metabolic health is key to longevity and can be improved by choosing healthier dietary options while avoiding seed and vegetable oils and processed carbs. I also highlight the importance of regular physical activity, including both low and high impact exercises, in maintaining muscle and bone strength and supporting hormonal health. Finally, I discuss how mindful lifestyle choices such as stress management, reducing exposure to endocrine disruptors, and regular health monitoring can significantly enhance metabolic wellness.   In this episode, I discuss: 01:09 - The crucial connection between diet and metabolic health, understanding how specific dietary choices can significantly enhance or impair metabolic function   02:52 - How regular exercise and effective stress management can cultivate a more resilient metabolic state   05:52 - The often-overlooked environmental elements that impact our metabolic health, such as exposure to sunlight, sleep patterns, and avoidance of endocrine disruptors like plastic containers   07:28 - The value of monitoring physiological metrics to track progress and make informed decisions about health interventions   09:02 - Guidance on how to sustainably incorporate these practices into daily life for lasting health benefits   Learn more from Michael Kummer: Use code “primalshift” to save 15% on your order at https://shop.michaelkummer.com/ Website: https://michaelkummer.com/ Instagram: @mkummer82   Resources: In-depth post: https://michaelkummer.com/health/metabolic-health/ Blood testing options if you don’t have insurance: Dr. Randy Smith - Antiaging Atlanta: [email protected].
