Summary

Why is it that some people eat well, exercise consistently, and still struggle to lose weight?

If you've ever felt like your body is fighting against you instead of working with you, today's episode may provide the missing piece.

Emerging research suggests that fat cells don't just store energy they may also act as a protective buffer against chronic inflammation.

That means your body could be swelling existing fat cells or even creating new ones in response to internal stress, toxins, hormone imbalances, or immune activation.

So on today's Cabral Concept 3673, I'll break down the research behind how inflammation disrupts fat-burning hormones and share practical strategies to lower inflammation, so your body no longer feels the need to hold onto protective fat.

Enjoy the show!
