Too Much or Too Little‪?‬ Inside the Breakthrough - How Science Comes to Life

    • Science

We often complain about having too little of something: Too little time, too little money. But today in first world countries a lot of our problems come from having too much of something: Too much sugar, too much technology.

We point this lens at a pair of historical stories to better understand if tragedies and hardships of the past were really the result of having ‘too little’ of something, or if we need to use a different perspective.

We talk with Dr Jason Fung about his views on fasting and whether we eat too much, too little, or just too often!
