338. Does Nature Want Us to be Fat? JJ Virgin on Sugar and How to Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth Without Harming Your Health or Being Hungry
Description
We've hit the year's halfway mark this week — which makes it the perfect time to revisit the New Year mindset, minus the pressure. In this BEST OF conversation, fitness hall of famer and four-time NYT bestseller JJ Virgin joins us to unpack the real roadblocks between us and better health: the difference between glucose and fructose, why "a calorie is a calorie" falls apart outside a lab, how satiety and a little muscle do the heavy lifting, and the food-marketing "health halos" Carolyn knows firsthand from her advertising days. It's the episode that predicted the current satiety-and-muscle conversation everyone's having!
