S11 E19: How to Support Your Metabolism in Your 40s and 50s With Samantha McKinney, RD, CPT

“Metabolism” refers to the thousands of chemical reactions required for our bodies to function. It is highly complex — and it’s about so much more than simply being “fast” or “slow.” Although there is no single age when shifts in metabolism start to happen, the natural effects of aging do lead to changes that require us to consider different ways of supporting a healthy metabolism. Many people notice this swing in their 40s and 50s.

In this episode, Samantha McKinney, RD, CPT, explains the shifts in metabolism that can happen and why, as well as the ways we can support an optimal metabolism. There are steps you can take to make a difference no matter your age — whether you’re starting in your 40s or 50s, or in the years before or after them.
