Episode notes

I've been interested to follow Kevin Hall's work and trying to tease out what is it about these foods that leads to over consumption. They seem at this stage anyway to be kind of narrowing in on energy density, hyperpality, ability and eating rateThese foods are you can eat a lot of these foods really quickly so all allreally interesting stuff. I want to finish here with two other parts of our lifestyle alcohol and exercise. So perhaps we we start with alcohol the the elephant in the room that perhaps perhaps some people don't want me to ask about here but it seems like recommendations vary they've changed a bit.

Episode #254. How does a plant-based diet weigh up against a ketogenic diet when it comes to cancer treatment and prevention? Discover the answer to this question and more in The Proof’s first episode dedicated to understanding cancer.
