In this episode, Dr. David Jockers explores why many people struggle to burn fat despite eating well and exercising. You'll discover how your metabolic environment, circadian rhythm, and meal timing influence fat storage and what changes can help shift your body toward fat burning.

You'll learn why eating late at night can impact insulin sensitivity, liver function, melatonin production, and mitochondrial health. Dr. Jockers breaks down the connection between fasting, sleep, and the body's natural ability to burn fat while you rest.

You'll also discover the seven-day protocol designed to support a healthier metabolism, including strategies for meal timing, hydration, protein intake, and creating the right conditions for your body to burn fat more efficiently.
