Show notes

It's Friday night and you've just settling into relaxation mode for the weekend after a tough week at work.

You rock into the kitchen to rustle up something to eat. You've narrowed it down to two meals you enjoy. Now it's decision time...

Sweet potato and coconut oil or ice cream?

What's the best choice? (The fact you're reading this blog I'm going to assume you care about health and body composition)

Does this seem like a ridiculous question? Do you think there's one obvious choice? Or do you feel it doesn't matter?

I don't think we can answer the question without some further context.

Dr. Yoni Freedhoff talks about why most diets fail, what is important for successful weight management, a healthy approach to eating, advice for parents on feeding their children and the role of the food industry.
