Episode 65- Why Knowing the Difference Between Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous System Matters and Why it Might Be the Key to Fat Loss

Episode 65 Show Notes

Understanding the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems could be the missing link in your fat loss journey. In this episode, Tiffany Wickes breaks down how the sympathetic nervous system responds to stress by increasing heart rate, releasing adrenaline, and pulling glycogen from cells—vital in emergencies but potentially harmful if constantly activated. 

On the other hand, the parasympathetic nervous system helps the body rest and digest, slowing the heart rate and conserving energy for optimal functioning. Tiffany explains why chronic stress can hinder fat loss and how improving sleep hygiene can help shift your body into a more balanced state.

Everyone’s metabolic needs are different, and knowing how to support your nervous system can make a significant difference in your health and fitness goals.
