When you eat too little, lose muscle, or sleep poorly, metabolism slows down. When you train your body, nourish it, and rest properly, it adapts upward.

No supplement or “booster” can replace what your biology already knows: Muscle, protein, sleep, and stress management are your real metabolism reset tools.

If you’ve been dieting for years, overexercising, or living in chronic stress, your body slows down to protect you. But when you fuel it properly, train your muscles, and rest deeply, it wakes back up.

You can rebuild your metabolism. It just requires patience, nourishment, and strength — not another diet. If you want professional guidance, click the link in the comments to book a 15 minute discovery call with me.

If you have tested zinc with me and its low, i would have told you to eat oyster. I was nibblish before dinner. Ate this whole tin whilst cooking. Just olive oil. No seed oil. Recommended by a dear friend to order from iherb. No affiliation.

These are common signs your body has shifted into energy-conservation mode, often after long-term dieting, stress, or lack of sleep.

When fuel intake stays low for too long, your body protects itself by slowing down energy output. The result: fatigue, cravings, plateaus, and frustration.

The fix:
– Eat enough protein
– Build lean muscle
– Get quality sleep
– Manage stress hormones

You don’t fix a slow metabolism by eating LESS, you fix it by rebuilding trust with your body.

Did you know that statins, the most commonly prescribed medication for lowering cholesterol, can have some serious side effects? While these drugs can be effective in reducing cholesterol levels, they can also come with a host of potential negative impacts on your health.

Some of the most common side effects of statins include muscle pain and weakness, liver damage, and an increased risk of developing diabetes. These side effects can be especially concerning for those who have been taking statins for an extended period of time.

Reminder to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice on your cholesterol profile. Do not STOP any medications without medical guidance.
