Could parasites be one of the hidden factors making it harder for your body to lose weight?

In Episode 118 of The Balanced Body Podcast, Monika Eva sits down with functional health practitioner, serial entrepreneur, and parasite guru Jessica Rauscher to unpack the often-overlooked connection between parasites, gut health, inflammation, cellular health, and weight loss resistance.

Rather than focusing on parasite cleansing protocols, this conversation explores how parasites may affect the body, the symptoms that could warrant a closer look, and why stubborn weight may sometimes be about much more than calories, macros, or exercise.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What parasites are and how we can be exposed to them
• Common signs and symptoms associated with parasitic infections
• The potential connection between parasites and weight loss resistance
• How parasites can affect digestion and nutrient absorption
• The relationship between parasites, inflammation, and overall health
• Whether everyone really has parasites—or if social media has taken things too far
• How to differentiate possible parasite-related symptoms from other underlying imbalances
• Why looking at the whole body matters when you're struggling with unexplained symptoms or stubborn weight

If you feel like you're doing all the “right” things but your body still isn't responding, this episode will give you another perspective on what may be worth investigating.
