  • 154. Why Bread in Europe Doesn't Make You Fat — But American Bread Does
    Jun 23 2026

    I’m uncovering why so many people can eat bread in Europe without bloating, cravings, or weight gain, yet struggle with American bread, and the answer has far more to do with ingredients, fermentation, additives, and blood sugar than willpower. Learn how sugar, ultra-processed foods, gut health, GLP-1 production, and hidden food chemicals may be affecting your metabolism, hunger, and ability to lose weight.

    Jun 16 2026

    I’m breaking down exactly how menopause and perimenopause change your metabolism, why belly fat increases, and why the strategies that worked in your 30s and 40s often stop working after hormonal shifts begin. Learn how estrogen impacts insulin resistance, cortisol, gut health, muscle loss, and fat storage, and the science-backed nutrition and exercise strategies that can help you work with your body instead of against it.
