info_outlineOn the next episode of Redefining Health, we’ll be joined by Christopher Davis to dive into the fascinating topic of metabolic health—what it truly means and how practitioners can effectively discuss it with their patients.
Metabolic health is deeply tied to mitochondrial function, the "powerhouses" of our cells that drive energy production. When mitochondrial health is compromised, it can lead to a range of issues, from poor energy levels to chronic diseases. Factors such as oxidative stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, and environmental toxins all play a role in mitochondrial dysfunction.
In this episode, we’ll explore:
-
What metabolic health really means and why it’s essential for overall well-being.
-
How practitioners can simplify the concept for patients and emphasize the importance of lifestyle factors like diet, exercise, and stress management.
-
The role of VO2 Max as a powerful yet underutilized tool for assessing cardiovascular and metabolic health.
VO2 Max, which measures the body’s ability to utilize oxygen during exercise, is one of the best indicators of mitochondrial and cardiovascular health. Despite its value, it’s not used enough in clinical practice. We’ll discuss why this metric matters and how it can be integrated into patient care to provide a more comprehensive picture of health.
Join us for this insightful conversation as we redefine what it means to achieve and maintain metabolic health.
