About this podcast

Dive deep into the science behind healthy eating, exploring the intricate mechanisms of hunger and satiety controlled by our brain, stomach, fat, and hormones. This episode also sheds light on the optimal timing for protein assimilation and the implications for intermittent fasting strategies.

The host debunks common myths, reviews symptoms, and explains the disrupted brain and chemical systems involved. Discover how anorexics develop hyperawareness of food fat content and the most effective treatments, from family-based models to cutting-edge experimental clinical trials involving MDMA, Psilocybin, and Ibogaine.

The episode further covers the latest research on binge eating disorder, brain stimulation, drug treatments, and thyroid disruption in Bulimia, drawing parallels between Bulimia treatments and those for ADHD. Finally, explore the complexities of "cheat days," body dysmorphia, and emerging novel forms of eating disorders, all grounded in scientific insights and actionable tools.
