In this episode, we dive deep into the debate about the impact of constant, life-time dieting has on your overall basal metabolic rate (BMR). Many believe that repeated cycles of weight loss and regain can lead to a permanently reduced BMR, but what does the science actually say?

We'll also discuss the multifaceted factors that influence BMR, including genetics, stress levels, immune system activity, and gut microbiome composition.

Join us as we unravel the complexities of BMR, debunk common myths about yo-yo dieting, and provide evidence-based insights to help you make informed decisions about your health and fitness journey.
