Mythbusting - carbs, calories, losing fat, "metabolic damage" and more! with Alex Leaf
About this episode
In this episode, I'm speaking with nutrition expert Alex Leaf, someone you may remember from past episodes.
I've been lucky to work closely with Alex for the past few years—he's a highly informed researcher and science writer, and he's rare in the world of nutrition. He's extremely scientifically literate and able to break through popular trends to provide practical and accurate interpretations of sometimes complicated research.
I'm really excited for you to hear our latest conversation…we cover a lot of ground, including what the research says about weight loss and calories in/calories out, low-carb versus low-fat diets, the best diet for fat loss, how a low-protein diet affects life span, and, one topic I know you won't want to miss; Alex's opinion on a recent publication showing that time-restricted eating leads to a much higher risk of death from cardiovascular disease…is this true?
To celebrate Alex's appearance on the podcast, I'm offering The Fat Loss Blueprint for $200 off the regular price of $497. Alex and I collaborated on creating this program, and it's an evidence-based, no gimmicks approach to very effective fat loss.
