In this episode, Andrew and Kat break down three ways your gut is quietly controlling your weight in ways that have nothing to do with how much you're eating. They cover how your gut bacteria produce their own version of GLP-1, why estrogen keeps recirculating when your gut is off, and a wild twin study that showed the same food can result in completely different amounts of fat gained, all based on gut bacteria alone.
This isn't about throwing out everything you know about nutrition. It's about understanding why eating less has felt so hard, why the weight keeps coming back, and why two people can eat the exact same thing and get completely different results. The answer is almost always in the gut.
If you've ever felt like you were doing everything right and still not getting anywhere, this one is going to make a lot of things click.
