When muscles are engaged after eating, it helps with your glucose storage, and can minimize your insulin response.Luis suggests some tips on how to integrate exercise sustainably into your life.Youn can find the article Luis references here: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38629807/You can register for the Embodied Parenting webinar here: https://hln.thinkific.com/courses/embodied-parenting-webinarYou can also read more about, and register for, the 6 month program here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/parenting-group You can read more about, and register for, the workshop at Kripalu here: https://kripalu.org/experiences/food-therapy-how-eat-your-nervous-system----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?
