You might have heard conflicting opinions about what causes obesity and overeating. Part of it is blamed on calories, part of it on satiety signaling through this hormone called leptin. However, there is so much more context to how these pathways take effect.

James is a cardiovascular research scientist and the associate editor of the British Medical Journal's (BMJ) Open Heart. He’s also the author of The Salt Fix, Superfuel, and The Longevity Solution.
