Inflammation is the silent thief of youth — and most people don’t realize it’s happening until the damage is already done.

In this episode of Anti-Aging Unraveled, Dr. Lori Gerber, D.O. breaks down the real reason so many people feel like they’re “aging faster” than they should: chronic inflammation.

If you’ve been dealing with stubborn weight gain, fatigue, brain fog, mood changes, hormone imbalance, joint pain, poor sleep, gut issues, or autoimmune flare-ups… this may be your missing link.

We’re not just talking about temporary inflammation after a workout or a cold. We’re exposing the hidden drivers of chronic low-grade inflammation—the kind that silently accelerates aging, disrupts metabolism, damages mitochondria, and increases your risk for long-term disease.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
✅ Why inflammation is connected to weight loss resistance and hormone dysfunction
✅ The “inflammatory triggers” most doctors overlook (gut permeability, stealth infections, mold, toxins, insulin spikes)
✅ How chronic inflammation impacts thyroid function, estrogen detox pathways, and cortisol rhythms
✅ The most important lab markers to test (and what they actually mean)
✅ The functional + integrative strategies that calm inflammation and restore long-term resilience
✅ How Dr. Lori uses personalized protocols—including advanced lab testing, peptide therapy, detox support, and lifestyle medicine—to help patients regain energy, metabolism, and vitality

If you want to feel leaner, sharper, younger, and more energized — it starts with putting out the fire.

Turn off inflammation, and the body can finally heal.

You’re eating clean. You’re exercising. You’re doing everything right— So why won’t the weight budge… and why do your hormones still feel off? In this episode of Anti-Aging Unraveled, Dr. Lori Gerber, D.O. breaks down the hidden detox pathways that silently sabotage weight loss, metabolism, energy, and hormone balance—even in people who live a healthy lifestyle. This isn’t about extreme cleanses or quick fixes. It’s about understanding how your body actually detoxes—and what happens when those systems are overwhelmed, inflamed, or blocked. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why liver detox overload can stall fat loss and estrogen clearance How gut dysfunction and leaky gut recycle toxins and hormones The role of mitochondrial detox in energy, metabolism, and aging Why poor lymphatic flow, sweating, and urine output matter more than calories How inflammation, environmental toxins, mold, and stress quietly disrupt hormones The lab markers that reveal detox bottlenecks most doctors never check Dr. Lori explains the medical physiology in clear, patient-friendly language, so you finally understand why your body feels stuck—and what to do next. You’ll also hear how targeted supplements, peptides, and personalized protocols can gently support detox pathways without draining your energy or slowing your metabolism.

You’re eating clean.
You’re exercising regularly.
You’re disciplined, motivated, and doing exactly what you’ve been told to do.

So why isn’t the scale moving?

In this episode of the Dr. Lori Integrative Medicine Podcast, Dr. Lori explains why weight loss resistance is one of the most common — and misunderstood — health issues today, especially for women over 35 and high-performing adults.

If you’ve been stuck thinking “This used to work, but now it doesn’t,” this episode will change how you understand your body.

This isn’t about eating less or working harder.
It’s about hormones, inflammation, stress physiology, toxins, gut health, sleep, and metabolic adaptation — the real drivers of fat loss that are often ignored.

In this episode, Dr. Lori breaks down:

Why calorie restriction can actually slow fat loss

How cortisol, thyroid dysfunction, and insulin resistance block progress

The role of perimenopause and menopause in changing metabolism

Why inflammation and toxin exposure keep the body in fat-storage mode

Which labs actually matter when weight won’t budge

What to do differently if you’re “doing everything right”

In this power-packed episode, Dr. Lori Gerber, D.O. sits down with Ryan Hewitt of Weaponized Body to break down the most effective and clinically impactful peptides available today. Whether your goal is weight loss, muscle mass gains, improved libido, relief from anxiety and depression, or enhancing mitochondrial and DNA longevity, this episode offers real, actionable insight you won’t hear from your typical doctor’s office.

We dive into the evidence, protocols, and real-world results behind today’s most powerful peptides—GLP-1s for metabolic reset, GH secretagogues for muscle and recovery, PT-141 for sexual wellness, Selank and Semax for anxiety and cognitive performance, and mitochondrial giants like MOTS-C, SS-31, and NAD+ for cellular repair and aging reversal.

Dr. Lori and Ryan also explore peptides that support chronic infection, immune regulation, and systemic inflammation, including BPC-157, TB-500, Thymosin Alpha-1, and Thymosin Beta-4.

If you’ve wanted a straightforward, science-backed conversation on how peptides can completely transform your health, performance, and longevity—this is your episode.

Hormone Health Reborn dives deep into one of the most misunderstood chapters in women’s health: the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study and its long-lasting impact on hormone therapy. In this eye-opening conversation, we break down how the WHI’s flawed design, outdated population sample, and misleading interpretations triggered decades of fear around estrogen therapy—fear that kept millions of women from receiving safe and effective relief for menopausal symptoms.

We explore the science the WHI got wrong, what modern research now confirms about bioidentical estrogen, and why the FDA’s recent decision to remove the black box warning marks a pivotal moment in women’s health. This episode empowers listeners with evidence-based insights, clears away myths about hormone therapy, and highlights what this regulatory shift means for the future of menopause care.

Whether you’re a clinician, a patient, or someone curious about the history of hormone therapy, this episode offers clarity, context, and hope for a more accurate and compassionate approach to women’s hormonal health.

Dr. Lori breaks down how ozone therapy “wakes up” cellular metabolism, the difference between major and minor autohemotherapy, and why it’s used in everything from chronic infection recovery to anti-aging, detoxification, and peak performance medicine.

She also explores ozone’s role in immunity, hormone optimization, energy restoration, and detox, along with what makes it safe, effective, and naturally integrative—even though it isn’t yet FDA-approved.

Whether you’re new to regenerative medicine or already exploring advanced longevity protocols, this episode will help you understand why ozone therapy may be the missing piece in your body’s healing puzzle.
