We recently had a visit from Dr Campbell Murdoch talking about the Metabolic Health plan and the benefits of giving it a go!

Metabolic health affects us all. It is the foundation of our physical and mental health.

Metabolic health is the ability of the body to store, release and use fuel, whilst maintaining health and stability.

Good metabolic health means we are more likely to feel well and thrive. Conversely, poor metabolic health causes fatigue, excess belly fat, poor mental health and contributes to most modern diseases.

Fortunately, metabolic health can always be improved.

What metabolic health is and how to improve it with the 28 day plan. Dr Campbell Murdoch
