Today we are going to talk about metabolism and metabolic health. This will kick off a new series on metabolic disorders...what they are, how they happen, what you can do about them, and even how to test for them.
Metabolic health is one of my primary focuses in my practice because studies have shown that nearly everyone has some level of metabolic dysfunction in America...in 2018 a study published by the University of North Carolina found that only 12% of the population meet all 5 primary criteria of good metabolic health - waist circumference, glucose, blood pressure, triglycerides and HDL cholesterol (or taking medications for any of these). And those statistics were collected between 2009-2016 - so pre-COVID. Many studies have shown the overall population of adults and kids got dramatically sicker during the pandemic (and not from the virus). So it's highly likely that these numbers will be even worse today. Whether you have any of these conditions or not, this information is valuable - because I guarantee you know someone who has poor metabolic health.
