Summary
It's true: we're wired to eat, but what should we be eating? Is there a one-for-all holy grail of diets that we just haven't found yet, or is an "appropriate" diet something that varies from person to person? How much should we be exercising, and does stress really contribute to weight gain? The answers you get will probably depend on who you're asking. Today's podcast focuses on Robb Wolf's opinion on these and a variety of other topics.
As one of the world's leading experts in paleo nutrition, author of two books on The New York Times Best Seller list (The Paleo Solution: The Original Human Diet and Wired to Eat), and former research biochemist, it's safe to say his opinions carry a lot of weight. Tune in for an intriguing and eye-opening conversation that touches on the role of diet, lifestyle, genetics, epigenetics, socialization, and the gut microbiome in overall health and quality of life.
