What is Metabolic Health?
Metabolic health refers to the state of health where an individual has healthy levels of various markers related to metabolism, including blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol, and triglycerides. A person with good metabolic health is less likely to develop chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and obesity. Some of the key indicators of metabolic health include a low waist circumference, healthy blood sugar levels, healthy blood pressure, low levels of triglycerides, and high levels of HDL cholesterol. Achieving and maintaining metabolic health typically involves a combination of regular exercise, healthy diet, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding smoking, and managing stress levels.
