E106 | Weight Loss Lies Exposed
Description
Unhinged weight loss advice is not only ineffective but often dangerous for women's health and metabolic function, with many recommendations coming from authority figures who lack updated nutrition knowledge.
• Extreme calorie restriction (below BMR) triggers survival mode, increasing fat storage and slowing metabolism
• Enemas for "detox" damage gut microbiome and create dangerous electrolyte imbalances
• Pre-diabetes requires specific interventions, not vague "eat better" advice
• Metabolism adapts to underfeeding, leading to decreased energy expenditure and hormone disruption
• Healthy women can thrive on 2100+ calories daily with adequate protein (200g)
• Standard medical testing often misses early insulin resistance markers
• True health progress requires consistent meals, strength training, and blood sugar stability
• Weight loss results take 30-90 days minimum to show in biometric markers
