💡 Chronic stress slows your metabolism. In fact, studies show people under constant stress burn up to 100 fewer calories per day after eating compared to those who aren’t stressed.
That might not sound like much, but over a year, that’s a potential 10 pounds gained without changing a single thing about your diet.
Work deadlines, family obligations, aging, and health worries all crank up cortisol, your body’s main stress hormone.
So whats the point?
Managing stress is a metabolic health strategy. 🧠🔥
