Summary

In this episode, New York Times Best Selling Author Dr. William Lee discusses the importance of food as medicine and the role of nutrition in overall health. He emphasizes the dangers of excess body fat, particularly visceral fat, and how it can lead to chronic diseases. Dr. Lee explains how fat cells can be fuel tanks for our body and that overeating can lead to the expansion of fat cells, resulting in dangerous and toxic fat.
