Frequently Asked Questions

Can I lose fat while dealing with chronic bloating?

Yes, by focusing on anti-inflammatory whole foods and identifying specific food sensitivities, you can reduce systemic inflammation which often contributes to both bloating and stubborn fat retention.

Does high-intensity exercise hurt gut health?

For some women, excessive high-intensity exercise can increase cortisol levels, which may slow digestion and exacerbate gut issues. Low-to-moderate intensity training is often more effective for metabolic health in this context.
