Energy isn’t just about what you eat — it’s about how easily your body switches between glucose and fat for fuel. In this episode, we explore metabolic flexibility — the ability to shift between fuel sources — and why that flexibility becomes more important after 45.
You’ll hear how genes like PPARGC1A, FADS1, FADS2, and ADIPOQ shape insulin sensitivity, energy stability, and how efficiently your cells use the fuel you already have.
If you’ve noticed more hunger between meals, afternoon dips, or less steady energy than before, this short episode helps you understand why those changes happen — and what they reveal about your unique design.
Please share this episode with other women 45+ if you think they'd benefit from it.
