Metabolic Dysfunction and Its Consequences

Increasing levels of inflammation and lack of physical activity can lead to metabolic dysfunction, resulting in conditions like insulin resistance. As metabolism slows, the body becomes catabolic, meaning that muscle and bone tissue may break down. This is particularly concerning for individuals with excess body fat or insulin resistance, who should focus on higher protein intake and resistance training to counteract these adverse effects. Regular exercise is crucial, as it not only helps manage weight and muscle health but also improves mood and promotes healthier lifestyle choices.
