Episode notes
INSIGHT

Hunger Is A Hormone Problem

  • Hunger is driven by hormonal signals, not just calories or willpower.
  • Your gut and brain communicate via hormones, so willpower alone loses to biology.
INSIGHT

GLP-1 Is Your Natural Satiety Signal

  • GLP-1 from the gut signals fullness and stabilizes blood sugar and energy.
  • When GLP-1 is released properly, meals end naturally and cravings drop.
ADVICE

Give Your Body A Break From Starvation

  • Stop extreme calorie restriction and give your body a break from starvation signals.
  • Eat structured meals with enough protein and fiber to restore gut hormone cycles.
