On this episode of Fat Science, it’s time to let go of the old paradigm “calories in, calories out.” Join hosts Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor and Mark Wright as they kick CICO to the curb.
The idea that a person’s weight is determined only by the ratio of calories consumed and calories burned is an over-simplification and often not true, especially for people with metabolic dysfunction.
Dr. Cooper reveals the real key to weight management is not calorie counting but understanding metabolic function influenced by the neuroendocrine system. Through personal stories and insights, they explore why diets don’t work and how acknowledging the complexity of metabolism can lead to better health.
