YouTube video by Dr. Tabatha Barber exploring whether weight gain is simply a sign of aging. The speaker argues that accumulated toxic burden from household chemicals (e.g., Glade plugins, candles) can be sequestered in fat cells, causing or contributing to extra weight rather than weight gain being solely an inevitable part of aging.
The last piece is that you just have to accept weight gain as a part of aging. And here's the deal. I want you to think about the fact that we all have little buckets inside of us, but we, we all do have an ability to hold a certain amount of toxic burden. So toxins from our glade plugins, our candles, all the stuff, all those chemicals get absorbed into our body, and our body has to do something with it. It doesn't have the ability to easily remove it because these new chemicals have been created in the lady. The body is struggling to remove them. And so it will sequester them and it will try to hold them off, especially in your fat cells, because that's the safest place to put toxins. So sometimes we carry around extra weight because we too much toxic burden.
