And while diet certainly serves an important role in metabolic flexibility, one major factor in our ability to burn fat vs. carbs is exercise. Exercise plays a big part in how metabolically flexible we are. And although it may seem that the more we exercise, the more fat we'll burn, it's not that simple. In fact, exercise can also make us metabolically INflexible! In other words, too much exercise can actually cause harm. We dive into all of that with...2021-09-2749 min

The small islands in the South Atlantic were the setting for a defining moment, and on 2 April 1982, Argentina invaded the Falklands, which had been British territory for almost 150 years. What followed was a short, fast paced war, concluding with a British victory on 14 June 1982. Ryan’s research focuses on the empire-related no...2021-07-0628 min
