We live in a culture that assumes most health problems come from eating too much, indulging too much, wanting too much.

But clinically, a different pattern shows up again and again: people who are surrounded by excess yet profoundly undernourished.

In this episode, Dr. B. Rich explores why bodies can eat less, try harder, and still feel stuck. Through lived experience and clinical observation, she unpacks how chronic stress, survival patterns, and long-term conservation can drive weight changes and fatigue—even when intake is low and labs look “normal.”

This conversation isn’t about dieting or discipline.
It’s about understanding why the body conserves instead of responds—and why nourishment often fails in a culture obsessed with excess.

RICH Revelations with Dr. B. Rich explores the real work of healing—through honest conversations, reflection, and perspective shifts that help you feel better, understand your body, and heal for real.
