Summary

This episode is sponsored by Essentia, Thrive Market, and Rupa Health. If you stop to look at the real reasons you’re eating certain foods, it’s not a lack of self-control like the stigma suggests. It is a lack of other things in your life, though.

0:10.3	Don't try and think willpower will be enough because in the long term, it rarely will be.
0:17.0	Hey, everybody, it's Dr. Mark. Let's talk about sleep.
0:23.9	I used to think that MD stood for medical deity, meaning I didn't have to follow the same sleep rules as every other human being. I stayed up late,
