Confused about dieting and metabolism? When you lose weight, does your metabolism speed up or does it slow down? If you want to understand more about the dos and don’ts of weight loss and improving your metabolic health, this video is for you.
When it comes to weight loss and metabolism, many people focus on basal metabolic rate (BMR) - aka the minimum amount of energy your body needs to maintain vital functions while at rest, such as breathing, circulation, and cell production.
Many people assume a high BMR is the key to weight loss, but since your basal rate scales up and down with body mass, it’s a moving target and probably not the right focus for most. The five key markers of metabolic health - rather than speed - are usually where you’ll find the most benefits.
In this video we’ll discuss those five markers and reveal sustainable strategies that will lead to more effective weight loss and metabolic health outcomes. Let’s get started!

Whole food plant based! It works perfectly!
Reducing glucose and only eating between 12 am and 8 pm did the trick for me. I've never been overweight, but I had been gaining weight steadily so I wanted to figure out how to lose it again.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing your experiences.
All excellent advice. I would, however, also suggest to significantly reduce fast food and processed foods.
Wow. Very enlightening. Thank you
You are getting so knowledgeable Lucas. You should have a side hustle as a nutritional therapist
Thanks so much for your support, Lindy!
That was some EXCELLENT tips.. covered a lot of grounds. Thank you so much, Lucas

Welcome!
This is a very helpful video. I don't think I actually learned any NEW information, but the way it was presented pulled a lot together for me. I am so glad for that. I am saving this so I can easily come back to it. Thank you.
Thanks for your support, Jim!
Very interesting information ❤
Thanks Linnette!
Great video and some really good advice. Just a couple of queries: short walk after meals - approx time would be helpful. Also, is it soluble or insoluble fibre before meals or a combination? Thank you so much
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful. For short walks aim for about 10-15 minutes and as for fiber before meals, it's generally recommended to include a combination of soluble and insoluble fiber in your diet
@@YOGABODY.OfficialThanks Lucas and I am astonished by your speedy reply!

Doctor I was misdiagnosed with psychosis and was put on many antipsychotics for 5 months. And I lost my imagination because of that. I stopped taking antipsychotics 5 and half months ago. Do I get my imagination back? How long does it take?? And why did it stop working??
Actually bodyweight exercises for overweight individuals might be harder than using gym weights/machines.
Trying to force dips or pull ups can even cause injury, and there are appropriate regressions (e.g. band-assisted pull ups) that should be tried first.
That's an interesting perspective, we find it very easy to modify bodyweight exercises with chair / stool and feet (for dips) for example. But it's a good point.
How do you feel about fasting and healthy whole food eating?
Hello S - there is fasting in the old / biblical / hardcore sense where days (or more) are skipped. For most people in the 2nd half of life, the risk vs reward is not there for this. Then there is meal timing which some people call fasting, basically giving your body a 12-16 break between last and first meal. If these tricks work for you without suffering and starvation, do it... for many people it's a very simple fix. But if you're hungry all the time it's hard to maintain.
re: whole foods. Yes, pretty much consensus on that one. Whole foods = good idea. Keep going!
michael phelps said he used to train 18h day 😅

Isn't slow metabolism good? It slows down ageing
A slow metabolism causes me to gain weight like crazy while eating a really small amount of food for an adult human. I cannot see how that is good.
It's not really about good/bad, it's just we all have different and changing bodies. In an attempt to rev up basal metabolic rate, people have used everything from caffeine to amphetamines to excessive exercise. With every few exceptions, this has not produced great results and often backfires.
Tha t is a theory, yes, it's very hard to confirm / negate the theory.
