"Unleashing the Power of Exercise and Nutrition: How They Impact Your Hormones"

Hormones are crucial messengers that regulate various bodily functions, from metabolism to mood. Exercise and nutrition significantly influence hormone levels in the body. Resistance training and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) can increase growth hormone (GH) and testosterone, while endurance exercise may raise cortisol levels. Nutrition also impacts hormones, with high-protein diets boosting GLP-1 and high-carbohydrate diets increasing insulin. Additionally, nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D can enhance testosterone levels. By combining exercise and proper nutrition, you can optimize hormone levels and improve overall health.

Game Changers on Netflix

Is it true? Should I give up on meat?

If you haven’t seen Game Changers on Netflix I would encourage taking the time to watch it. The only thing I ask is that you keep in mind that this video is not perfect and is pushing for a certain narrative. This is not pier reviewed as scientifically proven and some if not all of the writers and film makers have stake in vegan and/or vegetarian products.  Having said that I think it’s a great video to get you thinking a bit differently about the average American diet.
