Metabolic Flexibility

Many individuals may appear to manage their weight but could still be at risk for type 2 diabetes due to metabolic inflexibility. Relying solely on carbohydrates for energy can lead to ineffective fat storage and elevated insulin levels. Transitioning to a fat-adapted state allows the body to utilize stored fat for energy, significantly improving metabolic efficiency. The liver plays a crucial role in this process, capable of producing substantial amounts of ketones daily.
