About this episode

Is weight loss about willpower and trying harder to refrain from eating? Calories in vs calories out is a message that many dieters receive about losing weight effectively. These are two of the myths that we discuss today, along with some other top diet myths, with a leading expert in the field of health and nutrition. Ashley Koff, RD wrote the book "Your Best Shot" about GLP-1 antagonist medications and other weight management resources, to help people with their health and weight in our obesogenic environment. Rob and Sandra do a deep dive into these issues with Ashley to help understand the complexities about weight and health.
