Weight and Metabolism

Your cells are fighting a quiet battle every single day — and most of us have no idea it's happening. In this episode, Dr. Deepti Sharma breaks down oxidative stress: what it actually is, why it's not just a buzzword on a supplement label, and how the imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants can quietly drive insulin resistance, inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction long before labs show anything "wrong." If you've ever wondered why two people with similar diets and weight can have very different metabolic outcomes, oxidative stress might be part of the missing piece. Dr. Sharma unpacks the science in plain language — and what you can actually do about it.
