About Episode
“Eat less and exercise more” is the diet advice we’ve all been following for the last 50 years, but I have bad news for you…science has proven that calorie counting doesn’t work 95.4% of the time. Our bodies have evolved for thousands of years to naturally balance energy input (eating) and expenditure (activity). So then why is that only AFTER discovering the concept of the calorie have we begun to see the epidemic rise of obesity worldwide in developed countries?
In this episode I have a rapid-fire conversation with New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Bailor, author of “The Calorie Myth” and one of the foremost experts in the health industry on the concept of the calorie. We talk all about the diet myths we’ve been fed for the last fifty years and why they are wrong. And then we talk about the solution to reshaping your diet if what you desire is long term health, energy, and longevity.
