Metabolic Meals

Heart disease, cancer, diabetes, stroke, and Alzheimer’s disease are all in the top 10 leading causes of death in the United States. These deadly diseases have ties to lifestyle choices, including our nutrition, physical activity levels, and more.

Rest assured you don’t have to live a perfect life to live a healthier one. That would be boring. But stacking up more healthy choices can make life even better because you’ll have more energy, drive, and ability to do the things you love.

👍 Take care of your baseline lifestyle choices: Quit smoking, limit alcohol, get optimal sleep, enjoy morning sunlight, and reduce stress to improve overall health and lower the risk of chronic diseases.

👍 Exercise weekly: engage in 150 minutes of cardio and incorporate at least two strength-training sessions to boost heart health, control blood sugar, reduce stress, improve metabolic health, and build protective muscle mass.

👍 Avoid ultra-processed foods and processed seed oils, as they contribute to poor health and increased risk of chronic diseases due to their chemical additives, high sodium, added sugars, and unhealthy fats.

👍 Manage your blood sugar by reducing refined carbohydrates and sugary drinks, and pair carbs with healthy fats, proteins, and fiber to stabilize glucose levels.

Beyond taking a look at your overall metabolic health, here are a few other things you can investigate:

▪️C-reactive protein
CRP is a marker of inflammation. Higher levels are associated with dementia, cancer, heart disease, and kidney disease.

▪️Apolipoprotein B
ApoB is a structural protein of cholesterol particles. An ApoB test may be a better biomarker for determining your risk for cardiovascular disease than the usual cholesterol tests.

▪️Fasting insulin
Insulin is a hormone made in your pancreas. High insulin levels can be an indicator of insulin resistance a decade or more before glucose levels indicate prediabetes or type 2 diabetes.

Rotating your foods is crucial for preventing nutrient deficiencies and promoting overall health. Eating a diverse diet ensures you receive a wide range of nutrients that different foods offer. Each food type has a unique nutrient profile, and relying on a limited number of foods can lead to missing out on essential vitamins and minerals.

Here’s three examples of nutrient deficiencies, their importance, and foods to combat them.

Protein
🥩 Importance: Protein is crucial for building and repairing tissues, making enzymes and hormones, and supporting immune function.
🥩 Deficiency Symptoms: Muscle wasting, weakened immunity, edema (fluid retention), and poor wound healing.
🥩 Foods to Combat: Chicken, turkey, beef, bison, elk, pork, salmon, cod, shrimp, cod, milk, cheese, yogurt, eggs, lentils, chickpeas, and black beans.

Vitamin D
🥛 Importance: Vitamin D is crucial for calcium absorption, bone health, immune function, and reducing inflammation.
🥛 Deficiency Symptoms: Bone pain, muscle weakness, increased risk of fractures, and in severe cases, rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults.
🥛 Foods to Combat: Salmon, mackerel, sardines, trout, cod liver oil, fortified milk, fortified orange juice, egg yolks, and mushrooms exposed to sunlight or UV light.

Vitamin K
🥬 Importance: Vitamin K is necessary for Mitochondrial function, blood clotting, and bone health.
🥬 Deficiency Symptoms: Low energy, easy bruising, excessive bleeding from wounds or surgical sites, heavy menstrual periods, and in severe cases, bleeding in the stomach or brain.
🥬 Foods to Combat: Kale, spinach, collard greens, Swiss chard, turnip greens, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, parsley, cilantro, asparagus, green beans, lettuce, prunes, and kiwi.

In today's fast-paced world, maintaining a balanced diet can be challenging. Understanding what leads to nutrient deficiency and incorporating the right foods into your diet can significantly improve your health and well-being.

Processed foods are prevalent in the modern American diet. While they offer convenience, they often come at the cost of nutrition. These foods are typically high in calories, inflammatory vegetable oils, sugars, and salt but low in essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and fiber.

A diet lacking in variety, particularly one that does not include a range of whole foods like fruits, vegetables, and quality proteins, can lead to significant nutrient gaps. Whole foods are rich in essential nutrients, antioxidants, and fiber.

Modern agricultural practices have significantly contributed to soil nutrient depletion, affecting the nutrient content of crops. Monocropping, overuse of chemical fertilizers, and soil erosion all reduce the soil's nutrient content. As a result, even when people consume fruits and vegetables, these foods might not be as nutrient-dense as they were in the past.

Metabolic Meals has been committed to the quality of our food and your health and well-being since the very beginning.

"My husband and I both love Metabolic Meals. We both work full time, so time to meal prep is very difficult. I own and instruct a Pilates studio so having a healthy ratio of macronutrients is very important for my diet. We also find that we don’t waste food anymore. The meals taste great too!" -Layne

If the goal is to lose weight, creating a calorie deficit is crucial. A safe and sustainable approach is gradually reducing calorie intake while meeting the body's nutritional requirements.

A good starting point is to:
» Track and figure out your daily maintenance level of calories.
» Reduce your daily calorie intake by 500-750 calories below maintenance level.
» Keep track of your weight loss. A safe gradual weight loss is approximately 1-2 pounds per week.

Bonus Tip: Variety in your diet and an exercise routine are important to overcome weight loss plateaus that may occur after reducing calories.

A calorie is a unit of measurement used to quantify the amount of energy obtained from food and beverages. It represents the energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius.

In the context of nutrition, calories refer to the energy content of food that our bodies can utilize for various physiological functions, such as metabolism, physical activity, and maintaining vital organ functions. When we consume food, our bodies extract energy from the macronutrients-- namely protein, carbohydrates, and fat. Each contributes the following number of calories per gram:

- Protein: 1 gram of protein provides approximately four calories.
- Carbohydrates: 1 gram of carbohydrates provides roughly four calories.
- Fat: 1 gram of fat provides approximately nine calories.

What influences your beach body success and what you can do.

Your internal health influences your beach body success in three profound ways, all three of which you have some control over. Important reminder: this is how you approach a sustainable “beach body” we’re not trying to cut corners or crash diet.

Hormones
The Influence: Our body relies on over fifty hormones, including hunger hormones like leptin, which can decrease after just a few days of dieting, leading to increased hunger.
What to do: To counteract this, strategies such as weekly refeeds with larger portions of complex carbohydrates or pulsing carbohydrate intake throughout the week can help boost leptin levels and regulate hunger.

Inflammation
The Influence: Chronic inflammation, triggered by factors like diet, can disrupt metabolism by impeding thyroid hormone function and promoting chronic storage mode.
What to do: To mitigate this, prioritize anti-inflammatory foods like fatty fish, grass-fed proteins, and plant-based antioxidants, while ensuring meals always include a balance of protein and fat to minimize the impact of carbohydrate-rich foods.

Muscle Mass
The influence: Muscle, our largest skeletal organ, plays a crucial role in regulating blood sugar and increasing resting metabolic rate.
What to do: To support and build muscle, consume high-protein meals regularly and engage in resistance training, which boosts metabolism for up to 48 hours post-workout.
