Daily Inspiration Quote by Suzanne Somers

"That's what the gas is about, that's what the bloating is about and that's what the fat storage is about"

About this Quote

Somers talks like someone translating a messy body into a solvable plot. The repetition of "that's what ... is about" isn’t just emphasis; it’s a sales-ready drumbeat that turns vague discomfort into a single, legible culprit. Gas, bloating, fat storage: three experiences that often feel random, embarrassing, or morally loaded get bundled into one chain of cause and effect. The intent is clarity, bordering on certainty: your symptoms aren’t mysterious, they’re evidence. And if they’re evidence, then a program, supplement, or dietary regime can be positioned as the verdict.

The subtext is older than wellness culture but perfectly adapted to it: control is possible, and you’re one explanation away from getting your life back. By naming bodily processes in blunt, almost mechanical terms, Somers strips them of intimacy and turns them into malfunctions. That’s comforting if you’re exhausted by self-blame, but it also sneaks in a different kind of pressure: if the body is a machine, then any ongoing problem suggests you haven’t found the right fix yet.

Context matters. Somers is an actress-turned-lifestyle brand, a pop figure who made her authority not through medical credentials but through recognizability and persistence across decades of talk shows, books, and infomercial-era persuasion. The line carries that era’s rhetorical DNA: conversational, anecdotal certainty delivered with the cadence of someone sharing a hard-won secret. It works because it flatters the listener as savvy enough to "get" the hidden reason behind everyday discomfort, while quietly nudging them toward the marketplace where that reason can be monetized.
