Listen Later

Ever wonder why it feels impossible to stop eating chips, cookies, or fast food once you start? It’s not just lack of willpower — it’s by design.

In this episode, I uncover how ultra-processed foods are engineered to hijack your brain, keep you craving more, and make weight loss feel like an uphill battle. You’ll discover:
