If you’re over 50 and struggling with stubborn belly fat, you’re not alone. Traditional diets often miss the deeper causes of weight gain—mainly hormonal shifts and chronic inflammation that come with age.

In this episode, we reveal the worst foods that keep belly fat locked in place—and why simply cutting calories often backfires.

You’ll learn the difference between the three types of belly fat (and why some are far more dangerous), how stress and poor sleep fuel fat storage, and which foods spike insulin and sabotage your progress.

If you’re stuck in a frustrating cycle of dieting without results, this episode explains what’s really going on inside your body—and what to do instead. It’s not about deprivation. It’s about making smarter, sustainable choices that support long-term health, energy, and confidence.

Your future health depends on what you do today. Tune in to learn how to finally turn things around!
