For the past 30 years, conventional nutritional wisdom has recommended eating less and exercising more if you want to lose weight.
In theory, this makes sense – burn more calories than you eat, and the pounds will come off.
I wish it was that simple, but it’s not. To believe that weight is due to calories in vs. calories out is a huge mistake.
Calorie restriction IS NOT the solution for long-term, healthy weight loss and I will explain why in this episode.
"Obesity is a hormonal problem, not a caloric problem."
