Chronic Pain Won’t Go Away? The Regenerative Medicine Approach that Actually Works

Chronic Pain Won’t Go Away? The Regenerative Medicine Approach that Actually Works. Most people are told their labs are “normal” — but normal isn’t the same as optimal. In this episode, Dr. Jengyu Lai (board-certified podiatrist and lifestyle medicine physician) reveals why chronic, low-grade inflammation is silently driving fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, and some of today’s most serious diseases — and why your doctor may not be catching it.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
The difference between acute inflammation (your body healing itself) and chronic inflammation (the silent destroyer)
Why your blood work can look “normal” while insulin resistance is already building
The warning signs most people ignore: muscle fatigue after 10 minutes of walking, gradual weight gain, brain fog, skin reactions, and waking up in pain
How chronic inflammation connects to diabetes, heart disease, neuropathy, Alzheimer’s (sometimes called “Type 3 Diabetes”), fibromyalgia, arthritis, and even depression

The #1 sources of inflammation hiding in your daily life — food, sleep, stress, and exercise habits

Why treating symptoms with medication alone is like putting a band-aid on a rusty nail

The functional medicine approach to finding — and treating — the root cause

Whether you’re dealing with joint pain, brain fog, unexplained fatigue, or you just want to prevent chronic disease before it starts — this episode is your starting point.Hosted by Meiping Liu and Dr. Jengyu Lai | Healing Steps to Wellness Podcast
