About this episode
Hey Heal Squad! Ok, we think this episode will blow your mind! If you’ve ever felt tired, puffy, brain foggy or all of the above…basically INFLAMMED…this conversation with Dr. Josh Redd is a total answer to all those questions. Dr. Redd, author of The 30-Day Anti-Inflammatory Reset and a leader in functional and personalized medicine, explains to Maria how tiny, chronic inflammatory responses in the body are quietly driving these fatigue-ish flare-ups. The big aha? Inflammation isn’t random! It’s often your immune system reacting to everyday triggers. The good news: you can calm it. Dr. Redd breaks down how stress, blood sugar, movement, and food can either fuel inflammation or help heal it. For instance, Maria’s jaw literally dropped when Dr. Redd explained how coffee could be contributing to her puffiness! You’ll also learn why sunlight is a powerful anti-inflammatory tool, which key lab tests can reveal hidden inflammation, and the top two foods most commonly linked to flare-ups. If you’ve tried everything and still can’t figure out why your body feels off, this episode could be the answer you’ve been waiting for.
HEALERS & HEAL LINERS
Inflammation isn’t just swelling, it’s your immune system stuck on high alert: Chronic inflammation can quietly drive fatigue, brain fog, puffiness, hormone issues, and autoimmune flare-ups long before you feel “sick.”
Your environment may be as inflammatory as your diet: Sunlight, stress, air quality, water, and even simple habits (like wearing shoes indoors) can either inflame your body or help it heal.
Stabilizing blood sugar & removing top trigger foods can change everything: Keeping glucose steady, and addressing gluten and dairy, can dramatically reduce inflammation, improve energy, and calm autoimmune activity.
