Genius Foods for Health & Wellness with Max Lugavere
Did you know that 60% of the calories we consume come from packaged, processed foods that provide no satiety effect?
As a result, we overeat those foods - and the repercussions are grim. Research shows that 1 in 2 adults by the year 2030 could be overweight or obese. And almost 9 in 10 adults have at least some degree of metabolic syndrome.
In this conversation with Max Lugavere, you’ll learn why the solution lies at the end of our forks. Max – a health and science journalist, New York Times bestselling author, and host of the podcast The Genius Life – talks about how we ended up here… and how to get ourselves out of this metabolic mess.
Max shares with JJ the shocking diagnosis that pushed him to dive deep for health and wellness solutions. Along the way, he learned the connection between blood sugar and dementia, why brain health doesn’t get the recognition it deserves (and the disastrous consequences), what makes us overeat sugary, processed foods (it’s not a lack of willpower!), and why the calories-in-calories-out model has been a dismal failure.
Whether you want to lose weight, support brain health, or look and feel your best (or all of the above!), you won’t want to miss this information-packed episode. Tune in and take notes. You’ll quickly see why JJ calls this one of her top 10 interviews.
