Welcome back to Real Health Radio. This week is another solo episode and we’re revisiting something I’ve covered in the past – how thinking can affect health. We discuss cognitive dietary restraint (aka dieting) and and see if it can impact our physical health and brain power. We review several studies that have been done in this area and chat about what we can take from these scientific papers and apply to our lives.

This can lead to increased misery, anxiety, and self-doubt, ultimately impacting our overall well-being. In this episode, I look at a number of cognitive distortions that you can be on the look out for.
