Why You’re Not Losing Weight on a Whole Foods Plant-Based Diet (Especially Over 50)
Jul 14, 2025If you’re over 50, eating healthy, and still not losing weight… this episode is for you.
We often hear that a whole-food, plant-based diet is the healthiest way to eat. But what if your “healthy” habits are actually working against you—stalling weight loss, raising blood sugar, and keeping you stuck in a cycle of frustration?
In this episode, we break down the surprising truth about plant-based diets, especially for women navigating hormonal changes after 50. If you’re tired of doing everything “right” and still not seeing results, this episode will help you understand why—and what to do instead.
Tune in to discover how to finally break free from the cycle of weight gain, inflammation, and confusion—and learn how a low insulin and inflammation lifestyle can help you lose weight, keep it off, and reclaim your health for good.
