Summary

Dr. Kevin Hall, PhD is Senior Chief of the Integrative Physiology Section of the Laboratory of Biological Modeling at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK).

His laboratory investigates how metabolism and the brain adapt in response to a variety of interventions to diet and physical activity. They carry out studies to better understand the complex mechanisms regulating macronutrient metabolism, body composition, and energy expenditure.

Recently Dr. Hall was lead author on a study titled 'Effect of a plant-based, low-fat diet versus an animal-based, ketogenic diet on ad libitum energy intake', which was published in Nature Medicine in early 2021.

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to another episode of Sigma Nutrition Radio.
0:18.5	As always, I'm your host, Danny Lennon.
0:25.1	This is episode 376 of the podcast.
0:29.7	And before we get into things, I want to say thank you so much to everyone who sent such kind feedback about last week's episode, where we cover the topic of sodium and human health,
0:36.2	an area where there's lots of conflicting information
0:39.4	and oftentimes misinformation. And we went really into a comprehensive detail, I hope,
0:45.1	on this whole area to try and bring some clarity. And you guys seem to really appreciate that.
0:50.7	And there was a lot of positive words about the episode in particular. So thank you for
0:55.5	that. And for anyone who didn't catch the episode, maybe make a note to go back and listen to episode
1:00.4	375. Now, on today's podcast, I'm delighted to be rejoined by Dr. Kevin Hall, who's been on the podcast
1:08.0	a couple of times previously a few years back where we discussed
1:11.6	some of his previous work. But in today's episode, we're going to focus in on a study that
1:17.1	was just recently published. So at the time of this podcast going out, it was last month. So in
1:22.6	January 2021, Dr. Hall and his colleagues published a study titled, Effect of a Plant-Based
1:29.2	Low-Fat Diet versus an animal-based ketogenic diet on ad libidim energy intake, and that was
1:35.4	published in Nature Medicine. And I'm going to link up to that study in the show notes this
1:40.1	episode. So if you want to go and read that study in full, which I very much encourage you go and do,
1:45.3	you can go and find the study on the show notes page, which is sigmautrition.com slash episode
1:50.5	376. And throughout this conversation, we're going to dig into some of the details of that
1:57.9	study, not only the design or the aims behind the study and of course the findings, but also some of the details of that study, not only the design or the aims behind the study and
2:01.6	of course the findings, but also some of the interpretations and misinterpretations of the
2:07.4	study results that have happened in the time since it's been published.
