New episodes every wednesday

Dr. Jason Fung, MD, is one of the leading voices challenging everything diet culture has taught women about food, weight, and willpower. If you've ever blamed yourself for not having enough discipline around food, this episode is for you.

In this conversation, Dr. Jason Fung sits down with Tamsen Fadal to debunk the "calories in, calories out" myth and reveal how hormones, ultra-processed foods, and different types of hunger play a much bigger role than we've been led to believe.He explains the three types of hunger, why you’re not losing weight, and what’s actually happening to women’s bodies during perimenopause. He also talks about insulin, fasting, and mindset shifts that will make you healthier, happier, and more energized.

Tamsen and Dr. Fung discuss:

  • The three types of hunger: homeostatic, hedonic, and conditioned
  • Why ultra-processed foods lead to cravings and overeating
  • Insulin, fat storage, and energy crashes after eating
  • Perimenopause, menopause, and belly fat: what your hormones are really doing
  • Practical ways to reduce “food noise” and mindless eating
  • Intermittent fasting for women
  • Why women gain weight without changing their habits

If weight gain has you frustrated and nutrition advice has you confused, this episode cuts through the noise and gives you the framework you need to become your happiest, healthiest self.
