Episode 247: The 3 Most Inflammatory Foods For Women Causing Weight Gain & Disease
If you're doing “all the right things” for weight loss but still feel bloated, inflamed, or stuck, this episode is for you. Most women trying to lose weight are unknowingly eating three everyday foods that quietly spike blood sugar, wreck gut health, and send hormones into chaos.
These aren’t the obvious junk foods. You’ll find them hidden in “healthy” snacks, gluten-free products, condiments, protein bars, and even your favorite zero-sugar items. Once you learn what they are, you will never look at your pantry the same way again.
In this episode I’m sharing:
The sneaky reason gluten-free packaged foods (even the “healthy” brands) spike blood sugar, cause inflammation, and overload your system with fillers, gums, and almond flour
Why high-fructose corn syrup is one of the most hormone-disruptive ingredients on the shelves, and how it affects estrogen, liver health, mood swings, cravings, and stubborn weight gain
The hidden sugar bomb inside everyday condiments like ketchup, barbecue sauce, and salad dressing, and how serving sizes trick you into consuming 30–70 grams of sugar without realizing it
How artificial sweeteners like sucralose and aspartame damage the gut microbiome, disrupt insulin sensitivity, increase cravings, and train your body to store fat
Why “no sugar added” products are often worse for your hormones than the real thing
The real reason women who are barely eating still struggle with weight loss
Simple, realistic swaps so you can ditch inflammatory ingredients without feeling deprived
Weight gain is a symptom, not the root issue. If you’re constantly on a blood-sugar and cortisol roller coaster, your hormones simply can’t regulate, no matter how little you eat. This episode will help you understand what’s actually sabotaging your metabolism, how to remove the biggest hidden offenders, and how to rebuild your meals with real food so your energy, cravings, and weight finally respond.
