Metabolic Minute #19 – Why the scale is a liar

We’ve all been there. You weigh yourself Monday and you’re five pounds more on Wednesday. You didn’t overeat, you exercised, and you’re feeling generally healthy. You can’t blame the scale, can you? Actually, you can.

The scale is a bad tool.

If you’re serious about weight loss or fitness, you can’t trust your scale for accurate tracking. Every time you step on, it’s weighing water, bone, muscle, and fat, with no real specificity. To lose body fat, you must weigh and track body fat. Enter the body composition assessment—the only way to get a true measurement of your progress.

Metabolic Minute #18 – When you’re tired but can’t sleep, you pop a pill

But what do you do when your adrenal glands aren’t at their peak—when exhaustion, brain fog, and illness persist? Is there a magic tablet to take? A simple solution to swallow? Believe it or not, there is kind of, but it’s only a short-term fix to a potentially long-term problem.

The stress of metabolic adaptation, chemical exposure, food allergies, and hormonal imbalance can overwork your adrenal glands, and many people are quick to take adrenal adaptogens for this fatigue. Similar to whipping a horse for a burst of speed, these herbs will certainly boost function in the short term, but what happens when you stop taking them if you haven’t addressed the cause? You’re back to square one—sick and tired.
