Food, Fasting, and Mitochondria: How Nutrient Timing Shapes Cellular Energy

Food and fasting both send important signals to your mitochondria. Learn how the body shifts between using incoming nutrients after meals and stored fuels during fasting, and why metabolic flexibility matters more than extreme restriction.
