S1E1: Metabolic Flexibility: Burn Fat & Supercharge Performance w/ Dr. Mike T. Nelson

In PNP Episode #1, Dr. Bubbs explores the fundamental concept of metabolic flexibility, your body's ability to switch from burning the carbs you eat to the fat stores on your body, with expert Dr. Mike T Nelson, PhD. If you're struggling with weight gain and poor health, you'll likely have poor metabolic flexibility. Ironically, even some ultra-fit endurance athletes can become metabolically inflexible due to chronically high intake of sugars (for performance), which can sabotage health and contribute to a more pro-inflammatory state.    PERFORMANCE NUTRITION PODCAST (PNP): YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-jYKOZ4ZzlAJfVexEp0NtQ iTunes: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/2juoLlB Enjoy the podcast?
