Ever wondered why you're still hungry even after consuming a high-calorie, ultra-processed meal? Could it be your body's cry for nutrients? In a fascinating revelation, we unpack a study by Dr Kevin D. Hall and his team, that sheds light on our body's reaction to ultra-processed versus minimally processed diets. We'll uncover why, despite the same caloric content, individuals consume more on an ultra-processed diet. We will also dispel the myths around counting calories and macros for health, and explore the role of macros for individuals chasing specific physique goals.
But that's not all. Health is not just about what you eat but also about how you live. We move beyond food to discuss why it's critical to focus on other health markers such as sleep, stress levels, and hormones. We'll talk about why eating nutrient-deficient, ultra-processed foods can lead to increased hunger and delve into how we can address this by listening to our bodies and choosing nutrient-rich foods. So join us as we guide you on how to sail through midlife gracefully, not by obsessing over numbers but by nourishing your body with what it truly needs. Don't miss this enlightening discussion!
