Understanding Metabolic Health with Cynthia Thurlow

There’s a silent health crisis affecting millions of people—and you may be one of them. Chances are, you don’t even know it.    What’s this stealth threat? Poor metabolic health. And in this episode, I’m joined by nurse practitioner and intermittent fasting expert Cynthia Thurlow to get clear on what’s causing this epidemic and what we can do to turn it around.    You’ll learn why women are more likely to struggle, the two most pressing changes to make, when fasting might not be right for you, and how you can be proactive about reducing your risk of long-term disease.    Even if you’re metabolically well, someone in your life likely isn’t—and this episode could be the beginning of a journey to better health.    FULL show notes: jjvirgin.com/everydaywellness   Get my FREE Ultimate Health Roadmap: http://jjvirgin.com/ultimatehealth   Subscribe to my podcast: http://subscribetojj.com   Read my book, The Sugar Impact Diet: https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/books/products/sugar-impact-diet-paperback-book   Learn more about Cynthia Thurlow: http://cynthiathurlow.com   Read Intermittent Fasting Transformation: https://amzn.to/46et3oC   Listen to Everyday Wellness: https://cynthiathurlow.com/podcast/   Study: Metabolic Syndrome and Related Disorders: Prevalence of Optimal Metabolic Health in American Adults: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2009–2016: https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/full/10.1089/met.2018.0105   Monitor your metabolic health with YourLabWork: https://yourlabwork.com/jj-virgin/   Own Your Labs: https://ownyourlabs.com/ YourLabwork: jjvirgin.com/yourlabwork    Read The Ultimate Weight Solution by Dr. Phil McGraw: https://amzn.to/3QOmHa2   Study: Cell Metabolism: A Smartphone App Reveals Erratic Diurnal Eating Patterns in Humans that Can Be Modulated for Health Benefits: https://www.cell.com/cell-metabolism/pdf/S1550-4131(15)00462-3.pdf   Reignite Wellness™ All-In-One Shakes: https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/shakes   Dr. Joe Dispenza meditations: https://drjoedispenza.com/?rfsn=6914154.37386a&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=6914154.37386a   Designs for Health Inositol Capsules: https://amzn.to/46m9U4a   Reignite Wellness™ Clean Creatine Powder: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/clean-creatine-powder   Designs for Health CatecholaCalm adaptogenic herbs: https://amzn.to/40KhunZ   Oura Ring: https://ouraring.com/   Whoop: https://www.whoop.com/us/en/   More episodes with Cynthia Thurlow: https://jjvirgin.com/?s=Cynthia+Thurlow   Check out Cynthia Thurlow’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/cynthiathurlow   Follow Cynthia Thurlow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cynthia_thurlow_   Follow Cynthia Thurlow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/_cynthiathurlow?lang=en   Join the Intermittent Fasting Lifestyle/Cynthia Thurlow Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1004505663061383/ Get Cynthia’s FREE Intermittent Fasting Guide: https://cynthiathurlow.activehosted.com/f/27
