My guest in this episode Dr. Chelsea Azarcon, teaches us the ins and outs of our hunger hormones, how insulin resistance and sensitivity play a role and why snacking is not actually great for our health. Over the course of the episode I counted 10 separate benefits from reducing our snacking!
Don't worry--we also tell you what to do instead. Spoiler alert--it's not just to go hungry!
