About this episode
Only 12% of U.S. adults are metabolically healthy—a sobering statistic Christa Rymal wants to change. With her background in nursing and holistic health, Christa brings both clinical expertise and a whole-person perspective to women’s wellbeing. In this episode, she breaks down what “metabolic health” really means and why it matters as we age. From the science of sleep to the power of protein and muscle strength, Christa translates research into practical steps for everyday life. She also shares how her nonprofit We Care—through the Minnesota Holistic Health Group, wellness retreats, and conferences—supports women and even health professionals in prioritizing their own health. This conversation offers clear, empowering strategies for building resilience, preventing disease, and thriving at every stage of life.Connect with Christa:Email: Christa.r@wecarenonprofitfoundation.orgWebsite About Us | WeCare ----------Thanks To Our Sponsor, Center for Gerontology, Concordia University Chicago.
