Show notes

In this episode, Dr. Jockers is joined by Dr. Jason Fung to break down why weight gain isn't a willpower issue or a calorie problem, but a hunger problem driven by internal signals. You'll learn why eating less often backfires and why controlling hunger is the real key to sustainable fat loss. Dr. Fung introduces the concept of the "fat thermostat," explaining how hormones like insulin, cortisol, and GLP-1 quietly determine whether your body stores fat or burns it. He also reveals how ultra-processed foods disrupt these signals and keep cravings switched on. You'll also explore the different types of hunger that influence eating behavior, why some foods never lead to satiety, and how small shifts in food choice, timing, and lifestyle can naturally reduce cravings while supporting fat burning.
