Are your days filled with anxiety, awaiting the night with dread?
Have you spent hundreds or even thousands on supplements like valerian, melatonin, magnesium and lots of others?
Or maybe you’ve been on sleep medication for years? Have you been taking pills that seem to have offered relief at first, but then stopped working? Have those pills become a crutch that you want to get rid of?
I totally get it. I was once in the same place you were in.
A common thing that I hear is that people don’t know why they can’t sleep. I tried to figure it out myself for a long time.
Then I came upon something that suddenly explained completely what was going on. I found out about how the body works, and how it produces energy. This process of creating energy is called the metabolism.
The metabolism is about the most important thing you have to think of when you want optimal health.
A low metabolic rate can lead to feelings of depression, anxiety, sleep deprivation, increased risk of cancer, heart disease and countless other degenerative diseases.
How Does The Metabolism Work?
Simply put: for our bodies to work properly, our cells need to produce adequate energy to perform the tasks that they are supposed to perform. For your heart to work properly, the cells of your heart have to be able to produce energy. If you want to be able to use your brain to think about things, that also requires energy. If you want to lift a heavy object, your muscles need energy to be able to do that. The cells that your tissues and organs are composed of produce that energy.
This energy comes mostly from the food that you eat. When you eat something, the components of that food are broken down into parts that your body can use, like amino acids, glucose and fatty acids. Those three are called macronutrients, as compared to micronutrients like vitamins and minerals.
