Summary

Research indicates that overstimulation of your sugar receptors may actually change the foods you crave. What do we do about it?
To help us navigate the thorny world of home cookery and health, we’re here with Anna Vocino, a voice over talent and stand up comic who writes cookbooks and co-hosts the “Fitness Confidential” podcast.
She has voiced hundreds of commercials, cartoons, movies, promos, radio stations, and video games, which is a super cool day job to support her passion of food blogging and cookbook authoring.
And today she’s on the show chatting with me about:
- Why natural and artificial sweeteners are a double-edged sword
- How to ditch Dirty Keto and train your tastebuds
- Why we should try different elimination diets
- Learning how to fast after healing from an eating disorder
- Why comedy is healing
- And tons more…
