Every year, Shannon releases a "Thanksgiving" episode centered around exercise and food. This year, she's speaking to something that is common around this time of year - using exercise as a tool to "burn off" your food. She discusses why this isn't possible and how to re-wire your relationship to exercise and food. She also discusses how to add gentle movement to manage a glucose spike and feel better after a large meal.  0:00: Introduction  6:00: Why we can’t “earn” our food  13:12: How can you feel better on Thanksgiving? 16:26: How insulin sensitivity can play a role 18:00: How you can use post-meal movement to your advantage  Study 1 referenced Study 2 referenced 14-day free trial Follow Dr. Shannon on Instagram Follow Fit Body, Happy Joints on Instagram To try Evlo for 2 weeks free, visit www.evlofitness.com
