About this episode
In this episode, Dr. Spencer and Dr. Karl sit down with Dr. Kevin Hall and Julia Belluz to break down the science behind metabolism, weight loss, and their new book Food Intelligence. They clear up the myths around the Biggest Loser study, explain why appetite biology matters more than a “broken metabolism,” and explore how our food environment, from ultra-processed diets to cultural norms, shapes health outcomes.
