The Secret Sauce for Shedding Pounds isn't just about diet or workouts—it’s your liver. In this episode, Nurse Doza breaks down how your liver impacts fat loss through detox, blood sugar regulation, hormone balance, inflammation reduction, and mindset. If you’re stuck in your weight loss journey, your liver may be the key.
5 KEY TAKEAWAYS
The liver produces antioxidants like glutathione that directly reduce inflammation and support fat metabolism.
Hormone balance—especially estrogen and cortisol regulation—depends on liver health.
Blood sugar regulation starts with the liver, which stores and processes glucose after meals.
Fat cells become inflamed without proper liver function, leading to leptin resistance and weight gain.
Sustainable fat loss requires mindset shifts—and liver support helps you regain control.
