Description
In this episode of Fat Science, we dive into the highly debated topic of "calories in, calories out."
Hosts Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright take a deep dive into the science behind this widely accepted idea and debunk its one-size-fits-all approach. They discuss the damaging effects of restrictive diets on metabolism, shedding light on the long-term impact of such practices (including "diet damage," where the body's metabolism slows down to conserve energy and store more body fat, ultimately undermining weight loss efforts). Dr. Cooper also emphasizes the need to reframe the conversation about weight management and offers practical insights for fueling the body.
Through personal anecdotes and expert insights, this episode offers hope and a new perspective to those who have struggled with weight management. Tune in as we explore the complexities of metabolism and address the myths surrounding "calories in, calories out."
