In this episode of the Naturally Nourished Podcast, we focus on three key hormones that can significantly impact metabolism: insulin, leptin, and cortisol. Each of these hormones plays an essential role in regulating energy, hunger, and stress, and when imbalances occur, they may be the underlying cause of a metabolic stall or plateau.
The conversation explores how insulin resistance can block fat burn, how leptin resistance can interfere with satiety signals, and how cortisol dysregulation can drive cravings and fat storage. We discuss practical strategies for identifying when these hormones are out of balance, along with food-as-medicine approaches, lifestyle modifications, and targeted supplementation to help restore harmony and support optimal metabolic function.
