Are you Metabolically Stable?

By Deanna Mautz, BSN RN

I started my health career as a Registered Nurse, 16 years ago.  My job as a Nurse is taking care of the sick.  Most of the people I am seeing are not sick with acute illnesses, they are sick from chronic diseases**

But my passion as a Nurse Consultant is prevention and wellness.  My goal is to empower not only myself but others to make healthy lifestyle choices to optimize our path to wellness before we get sick, and LIVE LIFE ELEVATED.  

A few years ago I embarked on the journey of metabolic health.  So many metabolic disorders** that are diagnosed that make us sick are not genetic like some may think.  These chronic diseases are a result of how we eat, how we treat our bodies.  

We have the ability to influence our health through nutrition, lifestyle, and even how we think.  This is the metabolic approach to health that I have been studying, learning, implementing, and empowering my clients to utilize.

MY PERSONAL METABOLIC STORY AND JOURNEY:

Earlier this year I had my annual wellness check with blood work.  I discovered my Fasting Glucose was out of range and my Hemoglobin A1C was not optimal.  These are indicators that my body is not metabolically stable.  That was enough information for me to want to dig deeper and make some changes.

Soon I will share with you what optimal levels for blood glucose and AIC are…but back to my personal journey.  I was able to obtain a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) through Levels Health to monitor my blood glucose levels closely.  This is allowing me to really dial in my nutrition and optimize my health by seeing exactly how my body responds to foods.

You don’t need a CGM to get started, you can take control of your metabolic health now!  Controlling your blood sugar is one of the fastest ways to decrease fatigue, create a stable mood, improve focus, optimize sleep, and improve your health.

Over the next couple of weeks, I will be focusing on metabolic health, balancing blood sugar, and even sharing a FREE 10-day Blood Sugar Reset Program with you.

Not sure if your blood sugar is balanced?  The next post will contain a self-quiz and information to help you assess your metabolic health.

THIS IS YOUR TIME.

INVOKE THE POWER OF SELF HEALING.

As a Nurse Consultant, I work with those with chronic medical conditions.  These chronic conditions include heart disease, diabetes, lung disease, liver disease, kidney disease, obesity, neurological disease and those who are immunocompromised due to chronic infections, cancer or certain medications.
