Everyone thinks burning fat is “calories in, calories out.”

Health Myth #1: Sitting is killing you

Not exactly…
Hunter-gatherers sit just as much as modern people.

The difference is that they get up every 10–15 minutes.

Sitting isn’t the issue; uninterrupted stillness for way too long is. Health Myth #2: You need 8 hours of sleep

Most traditional cultures don’t sleep 8 hours.

Lieberman and his colleagues tracked people with no phones, no electricity, no alarms through the centuries.

6-7 hours per night and naps.
So, where did 8 hours come from? Check Video👇

Insulin controls whether you burn fat or store it.

If you’re insulin resistant, your hormones go crazy, aging accelerates, and you gain weight no matter what you do.

Here’s how to reset insulin (so you "trigger" fat-burning again)🧵: Why insulin resistance means you can't lose fat:

Insulin blocks lipolysis.

That means, as long as insulin is high, fat can’t be mobilized, no matter what diet or exercise you do.

You can be in a calorie deficit, but still not burn fat if you are insulin-resistant.
