Who benefits from making Americans fat, tired, and sick? Big food

and big pharma that’s who. Grocery stores are brimming with

ultra-processed, sugar-laden alternatives to real food, and doctors

benefit monetarily from dolling out pharmaceuticals that only

treat symptoms, not illnesses. To determine what individuals can

do to live a healthy life and make more nutritious food choices,

Positive Psychology Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with

two doctors who have researched the effects of processed foods

and sugar consumption. Dr. Robert Lustig uses six simple words

as a golden rule when it comes to nutrition and health. He dispels

common food myths and chronic diseases as detailed in his book,

Metabolical. And, Dr. Robert Barrett discusses the dark sides of

social media, smartphone use, and the real drug problem in the

U.S., all from his latest book, Hardwired.
