Metabolic health

# Metabolic Health Domain Description

Metabolic health encompasses the biological processes that regulate how your body converts food into energy, manages blood sugar levels, processes fats and cholesterol, and maintains hormonal balance. This domain is foundational to overall wellness because metabolic dysfunction underlies many chronic conditions including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, fatty liver disease, and obesity. Optimizing metabolic health involves improving insulin sensitivity, enhancing mitochondrial function, supporting healthy body composition, and stabilizing energy levels throughout the day. The aging process naturally involves metabolic decline, making proactive metabolic support increasingly important with age. Metabolic markers including fasting glucose, insulin levels, HbA1c, lipid profiles, and waist circumference serve as practical indicators of metabolic function and can track improvements over time.
