Unfortunately, with our modern lifestyle—especially with our high consumption of ultra-processed food—many of us develop metabolic inflexibility, meaning we are less able to the right fuel for the right situation.
- Our bodies rely on blood sugar when we should be burning fat.
- Since we can’t store much sugar and we aren’t able to access our fat stores, it feels like we’re always running out of energy.
- With more sugar floating around in our blood streams, we are at increased risk for chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, certain cancers, and dementia.
