Episode 55: The Scoop On Sugar + Inflammation: Is It Really That Bad?

I know what you’re thinking when you see this episode title: is sugar really that bad, and can it impact inflammation?

Maybe you’re like me a few years ago, telling yourself, “I eat pretty clean, I don’t really have that much sugar.” (But, you’re still struggling to lose weight, even though you think your nutrition is totally dialed in). Or maybe you know deep down you could probably cut back on sugar, but you have no idea where to start.

Whatever side you’re on, get ready for some major eye-openers. Because sugar isn’t just about the candy bars and soda you think it is. I’m going to pull back the curtain on how much “sugar” you’re actually eating and what it’s doing to your body right now.

I’m talking about the bloat, the brain fog, the stubborn belly fat, and even the joint pain you’ve been dealing with. We’ll explore:

• How certain “healthy” foods can act like a candy bar in your body and why that matters.
• The surprising, sneaky places sugar is hiding in your daily diet (it’s in more than you think!).
• Why that extra glass of wine at happy hour is making it impossible for you to lose weight.
• The vicious cycle of sugar cravings and why ultra-processed foods are engineered to make you want more.
• The connection between sugar, inflammation, and all those annoying perimenopause symptoms you’re trying to escape.

This episode is your kick in the pants to start taking your sugar intake seriously.

But don’t worry, I’m giving you simple, actionable solutions you can start on today. You’ll learn how to track your intake, find delicious alternatives, and use everyday habits to drastically reduce inflammation and feel better fast.
