Meet Sarah Kennedy, CEO and founder of Calocurb, a revolutionary weight management product born from 15 years and $30 million of New Zealand government-backed science. If you’ve ever struggled with your relationship to food, including overeating, yo-yo dieting, or the constant battle with your willpower, this conversation will give you a refreshing new perspective.

We explore the fascinating science of appetite suppression, from the evolutionary role of hunger and the “hindbrain” to the discovery that bitter compounds in hops can naturally stimulate GLP-1 and other satiety hormones. We also get into the history of how Scottish highlanders and Kalahari tribes used bitter plants for appetite control, how modern agriculture stripped bitters from our diet, and why restoring this missing piece could be a game-changer.

If you’ve been looking for a natural, science-backed way to modernize your eating habits and find peace with food, this episode is for you. Visit calocurb.com/lukestorey and use code LUKE10 for 10% off your first order.
