0:00.0	On today's episode of the Real Foodology podcast, there's this protein leverage hypothesis.
0:04.2	So if you don't need enough protein, your body at some point is going to be looking to make up for the
0:08.1	caloric deficit. And you generally are not craving more protein. What you're craving are carbs and fat
0:13.6	and not the healthy kind. It's usually the process stuff. The things that are, you know,
0:17.9	the ultra-processed foods. And as I know you talk about on this podcast,
0:21.8	helping people build awareness about how ultra-processed foods tease us into thinking that we aren't
0:26.7	eating as much food as we are. But people that eat ultra-processed food eat on average

1:05.4	really respects the power of conventional medicine to treat disease and save lives, she began to think
1:10.1	more about the root
1:11.1	causes of the chronic health issue. So like many of her peers, she was seeing all these sick
1:17.5	people come into the ER, into her office, and realizing that they weren't getting any better
1:23.5	because we were just throwing pills at them. We're not actually in the modern alopathic conventional model.
1:29.6	We're not trying to get to the root cause.
1:31.9	And this is really harming people.
