Hacking Your Mind & Body to Achieve Less Pleasure and More Happiness with Dr. Robert Lustig Mixing Business With Pleasure

Once upon a time, pleasure was scarce and expensive. But now with manufactured food available on every shelf and street corner, we’ve begun to consume massive amounts of sugar for that quick and easy dopamine boost thinking it’ll make us happy. But what if I told you that pleasure and happiness aren’t meant to be treated as interchangeable concepts? Today’s guest, Dr. Lustig discusses how the food industry hacked our bodies which resulted in the present epidemic of addiction and sadness, and provides suggestions on how we can move back towards contentment and satisfaction.
