Description

When the demands on our bodies exceed our capacity, we become burned out, mentally and physically. In this episode of Revolution Health Radio, Dr. Molly Maloof joins Chris to discuss the physiology of the burnout epidemic, measuring and managing your stress and blood sugar, when biohacking is and isn’t effective, why losing weight is futile when you are under serious stress, the importance of healthy human connection, and how you can build an effective program for recovery and resilience.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The relationship between blood sugar and cortisol, and their connection to stress and burnout 
• When biohacking can be supportive and when it can be problematic, and why it’s important to optimize sleep and recovery 
• Steps we can take to manage our stress levels, including building social connection, which is a more crucial component to longevity than not smoking or maintaining a healthy BMI
• The link between emotional health and metabolism, and the roles that stress and trauma play in struggling to lose weight
