Episode Description
In this episode, Linda McKissack shares her personal breakthrough after years of struggling with weight loss, inflammation, and fatigue despite trying nearly every diet approach. Through Dr. Annette Bosworth's 21-Day Challenge, she learned how insulin resistance and metabolic health affect the body's ability to burn fat and produce ketones. By tracking her glucose and ketone levels daily and experimenting with fasting, diet timing, and macronutrient adjustments, Linda discovered how to push her body into fat-burning mode and reduce inflammation, something she believes is key not only for weight loss but also for protecting brain health, energy levels, and long-term disease prevention. Dana and Linda discuss how understanding your body's metabolic signals, rather than chasing quick-fix diets, can help people struggling with inflammation, brain fog, and stubborn weight find a more sustainable path to health.
