Why Some People Burn Fat More Easily During Sleep Why do some people burn more fat during sleep while others remain dependent on glucose? In this video we explores the science of metabolic flexibilityโthe bodyโs ability to switch between glucose oxidation and fat oxidation depending on feeding, fasting, activity, and sleep. We examine how mitochondria regulate fuel selection, how insulin and glucagon influence overnight metabolism, and why metabolic flexibility depends on the bodyโs ability to transition cleanly between fed and fasting states. Topics covered include: โข metabolic flexibility โข mitochondria and fuel oxidation โข insulin and glucagon signaling โข CPT1, PDH, PDK, AMPK, and PGC1-alpha โข lipolysis and fatty acid oxidation โข the Randle cycle โข mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy โข circadian rhythm and sleep metabolism โ ๐๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.
