- Do 6-pack abs automatically equal health? Despite how it may appear on social media, you can’t judge someone’s health by their appearance. On this episode of The Sitch, we’re breaking down the science on looking healthy versus being healthy.
Too often we see people on social media flashing their 6-pack abs or showing off their toned bods in size zero leggings, and we automatically assume that because they’re fit, their diet must be ideal. This is so far from the case.
Looking healthy and being healthy are not the same.
On this episode, we'll talk about the measures of healths that can't be seen and why we need to turn to science to understand the best way to fuel our bodies, not people with aesthetically pleasing outward appearances.

Excellent video!
So true looking healthy is not whats going on inside
Exactly!
Incredible channel! Keep it up. I feel so privileged to have found you.
Thank you so much!
your channel deserves more attention! it is so informational
I was a little confused at the autophagy part. Maybe you can help me understand something. You mentioned autophagy is increased during fasting and exercise, but it is inhibited by the igf-1 hormone. I thought igf-1 was boosted by high intensity exercise right? So if you exercise, autophagy is increased but also igf-1 is increased which is a hormone that inhibits autophagy? I'm just learning about this so I'm not sure how it works
oh wait, I think I found the answer. Autophagy is increased during exercise, but intense exercise can precede a delayed release 8-24 hours later of igf-1 so it would be at a different time
or like me feeling all good and beautiful and finding out your DNA is filled with diseases promoting genes
but at least i have wfpb to hopefully feint and avoid the worst ones
