In this episode of Rethink My Health Radio, Dr. Gez Agolli sits down with Dr. Cheryl Burdette to uncover one of the most overlooked drivers of inflammation, weight gain, and chronic symptoms — food sensitivities.

You may be eating “healthy,” counting calories, and doing everything right… yet still feel tired, inflamed, or unable to lose weight. Why?

This conversation reveals a powerful truth: the quality of our food has changed — and so has the way our bodies respond to it. Due to increased toxicity, reduced nutrient density, and environmental stressors, even foods once considered “healthy” can now trigger delayed inflammatory responses in the body.

Unlike food allergies, which cause immediate reactions, food sensitivities can take hours — even days — to show up, making them incredibly difficult to identify without proper testing. These hidden reactions can lead to fatigue, stubborn weight gain, digestive issues, and systemic inflammation that worsens underlying health conditions.

Dr. Agolli and Dr. Burdette break down why traditional lab testing often misses these root causes — and how a functional, root-cause approach can help uncover what your body is truly reacting to.

In this episode:
-Why “eating healthy” doesn’t always mean you’re getting healthier
-How today’s food supply is contributing to inflammation and weight gain
-The difference between food allergies vs food sensitivities
-Why symptoms can show up 3–72 hours after eating
-How hidden inflammation impacts your metabolism and overall health
-The role of toxicity and nutrient depletion in modern diets
-Why identifying food sensitivities can be a game changer for healing

If you’ve ever felt like your body is reacting to everything you eat — or you’re doing all the right things with no results — this episode will help you understand what’s really going on beneath the surface.
