January 8th, 2022 Guest: Mark Schatzker

We have all heard that about 1/3 of US adults are overweight and that a bit more than another third is obese. The prevailing theory of the cause is that we eat too much and exercise too little. But, what if that is wrong, or at the least there is a lot more to the story which we are not being told? My guest, award-winning investigative journalist, Mark Schatzker, will discuss his brand new book, The End of Craving: Recovering the Lost Wisdom of Eating Well.** Mr. Schatzker uses cutting-edge food science, psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral economics to help us understand the facts and how to avoid the eat-this/don’t-eat-that diet wars. I recall being very impressed with Mark’s 2016 HBN interview based on his terrific earlier book, The Dorito Effect: The Surprising New Truth About Food and Flavor.** Mark’s optimistic approach utilizes the intuitive intelligence of our brain and body, plus the power of real food, to create a delicious vision of what it actually means to eat well.

Please help. Peter McCullough, MD has looked at the science and told us the truth. The establishment is punishing him. We can help.
