insulin resistance
Insulin is an important hormone for our metabolism. When carbohydrates are consumed, blood sugar rises and insulin lowers it again. It converts sugar into glucose and accelerates its conversion to fat. When we fast, insulin drops and the body accesses stored energy, i.e. fat stores. Consistently consuming refined carbohydrates can lead to chronically high insulin levels and therefore insulin resistance. It’s a vicious cycle that not only makes you fat, but can also lead to diabetes in the long run.

Basal metabolic rate
This refers to the daily calorie requirement of a person at rest. Age, weight, size or gender play a role. The type of diet is also important for metabolism. You can increase your calorie consumption with more exercise, muscle building, and a protein-rich diet.

intermittent fasting
Fasting is part of human evolution to survive in times of hunger. Although it means stress for the body, it also activates self-healing mechanisms. If you are healthy, you take almost no risks. Instead of abstinence from solid foods for a week or two, the most common method is to abstain from food for 16 hours a day and eat only for eight hours. When you eat, energy is stored in the liver as glycogen. It takes about 12 to 18 hours to break down.

intuitive eating
Leaning against the diet craze means listening to your gut. So eat when you’re hungry and stop when you’re full. Instead of strict rules, the focus is on awareness and enjoyment, which many people forget. Although it may seem simple, it still requires discipline and daily conscious training.

intestinal bacteria
Microbiome refers to all the bacteria living in the intestine. That’s about 100 trillion living microorganisms and about 1,000 different species. A “species-rich” microbiome has a positive impact on health and weight: the more diverse the gut bacteria, the better the digestive processes work. As various studies have shown, whether people gain weight faster than others following the same diet depends on their gut flora. Their composition has an effect on the increase in blood sugar levels. Fiber (carbohydrates obtained from plant foods) is good for the intestinal flora. They are indigestible for humans but are food for gut bacteria. Antibiotics, excess sugar and alcohol are not good for gut biodiversity.
