Understanding Inflammation, Fat Cells, & Weight Gain || #122 ft. Dr. Lori Shemek

Dr. Lori Shemek is a pioneer in creating global awareness of low-level inflammation and how it is responsible for most illness, disease, faster aging and weight gain. She has been sending out the message about inflammation long before it was a buzz word.

Dr. Shemek has uncovered the pathway to the core cause of weight: inflamed fat cells that not only promote unwanted excess weight gain and belly fat, but poor health as well.

In this episode, Dr. Shemek and Geoff discuss:

• Markers of inflammation and the different types of inflammation (low level vs. high level)
• How insulin resistance and mitochondrial health relates to inflammation
• Pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory foods
