How to Boost Your Metabolism & Unlock Better Health | Pamela Berrondo

Welcome to another powerful episode of The Dr. Brighten Show ! Today, we’re diving into the truth about metabolic health —why most people are struggling with weight loss, energy crashes, and hormone imbalances despite doing all the “right” things. If you’ve ever been told to just "eat less, move more" and felt like that advice didn’t work for you, then you’re going to love this conversation. I’m joined by Pamela Berrondo , a leading expert in women’s metabolic health and co-founder of Mesa Sana , who has helped over 15,000 women reset their metabolism and reclaim their vitality. In this episode, we’re cutting through the confusion around insulin, blood sugar, and hormones to help you understand what’s really holding you back from feeling your best. You’ll also learn how to boost your metabolism with simple yet powerful lifestyle changes. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: We start by breaking down the myths around diet and weight loss, including why the old "calories in, calories out" model is incomplete. Pamela explains why insulin resistance is one of the most underdiagnosed conditions affecting women today and how it plays a massive role in PCOS, infertility, perimenopause, and stubborn weight gain . We also discuss why most doctors miss early signs of metabolic dysfunction and how women can advocate for better testing and personalized nutrition. Pamela shares her personal journey with PCOS, insulin resistance, and hypothyroidism—and the exact lifestyle changes that helped her transform her health. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by slow progress or confused by conflicting health advice, this episode will empower you with clear, actionable steps to take control of your health, optimize your hormones, and finally achieve metabolic balance. You’ll also discover how to boost your metabolism naturally by making small but impactful changes to your daily habits.
