What If Weight Gain Is Just a Symptom?

What If Weight Gain Is Just a Symptom?

What if weight gain, depression, and chronic illness are symptoms rather than the real problem?


Ethan sits down with Dr.Josh Redd, a functional medicine doctor, to explore why treating symptoms alone often fails. On this episode of American Glutton, Ethan Suplee and Dr. Redd dig into inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, mental health, and why personalized care matters more than one-size-fits-all diets or pills. They discuss real patient stories, overlooked root causes, and what true healing can look like.
