104. Why Your Body Holds Onto Fat (Hidden Toxins Explained) with Dr. Anil Bajnath

Hidden toxins stored in your fat cells could be the real reason you can't lose weight after 40—even when you're doing everything "right."

In this episode of Functional Moms Podcast (#104), Dr. Anil Bajnath, founder of the American Board of Precision Medicine and author of The Longevity Equation, breaks down how precision medicine uncovers the hormonal imbalances, metabolic dysfunction, and stored environmental toxins that drive stubborn weight, fatigue, and perimenopause symptoms.

If you're a woman 35–55 navigating perimenopause, menopause, or unexplained weight gain, this conversation is your roadmap to a personalized N-of-1 protocol — not another generic diet plan.

We cover the hallmarks of aging, biological audits, the 3 detox pathways (pee, poop, sweat), lymphatic drainage, sauna therapy, and the biomarkers every woman should be testing.
