Is Your Metabolism Working?

Leanne Vogel
About this episode

If you’ve been doing everything “right” on keto but still feel stuck, today’s episode is for you. I’m joined by Chris Irvin to dive into metabolic health, insulin sensitivity, and what real healing looks like on a low-carb diet. We’ll talk about signs of carb intolerance, the role of movement, how veggie oils throw your whole system off, and how to safely reintroduce carbs once your metabolism is healed. No fluff—just the real science behind your fat-burning potential.

 

Hosted by Leanne Vogel.
