206 Never Binge Again with Dr. Glenn Livingston

Apr 22, 2019

Biohacking tech is awesome. Tracking steps and calories is fine but many of us lack the mental techniques to really shape our behavior. 

What if we had a mental framework that could really stave off our biological urge to binge eat? Now we do. 

Dr. Glenn Livingston Ph.D. is a veteran psychologist and was the long time CEO of a multi-million dollar consulting firm which has serviced several Fortune 500 clients in the food industry. He knows how the deck is stacked against us. 

That's why he wrote "Never Binge Again." Born from his journal entries while developing a psychologically informed approach to stop his own battle with food obsession. 

In this episode we cover:

• Why you cannot love yourself out of binge eating

• How calling your urges your "pig" can help you overcome bad habits

• How our reptilian brain, Big Food and conditioning leads to overeating

• The many resources that go into developing food-like-substances aimed specifically at getting us hooked
