In this solo deep-dive, Vanessa breaks down her full-length interview with Dr. Ted Naiman, author of Satiety Per Calorie: Eating, Solved. This is the episode for anyone tired of dieting, confused by nutrition extremes, or struggling to lose fat sustainably.

Vanessa walks you through every major insight from the episode, from the four levers of satiety—protein, fiber, energy density, and hedonics—to how food refinement hijacks hunger and what we can do to feel full and lose fat naturally.

You'll learn how to build meals that satisfy you for fewer calories, how muscle protects your metabolism, and why protein is the ultimate fat loss hack—especially for women navigating midlife, menopause, or metabolic shifts.

• What satiety per calorie actually means

• Why we're still hungry even while overeating

• How protein and fiber regulate appetite

• The truth about food processing and protein dilution

• Why women in midlife need more protein, not less

• How to build high-satiety meals that support fat loss
