In today’s episode we are joined by Dr. David Harper, author of BioDiet, for part one of our three-part series, Axis of Illness. We begin with obesity, and the clinical and medical definitions, including why body mass index is an outdated and inaccurate technique. You will learn about the theories of the cause of obesity as we break apart the energy balance myth and provide context for the hormonal role of obesity, now supported in the scientific literature. We also discuss the role of metabolic health, psychosocial considerations, how this is relevant for our current global situation and so much more.
