Inflammation or Fat? How to Tell (and Fix It!)

Is it fat… or inflammation? Dr. Shivani Gupta reveals the simple daily shifts that can cool your body’s fire and bring back your energy. Feeling puffy, bloated, or like your body’s rebelling? It might not be “just weight”, it could be inflammation. In this Fit Girl Magic podcast episode, I sit down with Dr. Shivani Gupta, an inflammation-fighting powerhouse, to unpack why midlife feels like a WTF moment for your body and what you can actually do about it. We talk: the hidden ways stress, sleep, and modern living fuel inflammation, how to tell if it’s fat or inflammation, and the 3 daily habits that make the biggest difference (spoiler: turmeric, sleep, and less stress). Plus, Dr. Gupta shares her Ayurvedic wisdom on gut health, metabolic fire, and why your body needs seasonal “downshifts” instead of nonstop hustle. If you’re tired of guessing, Googling, or grinding harder, this episode is your permission slip to slow down, tune in, and finally work with your body instead of against it.
