Health Advice That Goes Against Everything You Know ft. Jay Feldman
Podcast 45:14 | Download | Spotify| Stitcher | iTunes
When Dan started training for an intense cycling season, he needed more energy... without wrecking his health. That led him to Jay Feldman, a health researcher who believes most mainstream advice is dead wrong.
In this episode, Jay explains why “eat less, exercise more” backfires, and what to do instead. You’ll learn how metabolism really works, which foods help or hurt, and how to eat in a way that actually fuels your life.
