If you’ve ever wanted to lose weight and are on a diet, tried a diet, failed at a diet, or put all the weight back on afterwards, then do we have the myth-busting show for you! Today we’ll talk with Traci Mann, PhD from Stanford, the Founder of the Health and Eating Lab at the University of Minnesota. Her research has been funded by the NIH, the USDA, and NASA, and is published in dozens of scholarly journals. She’s also unique in that she doesn’t run a diet lab, and hasn’t taken any money from any commercial diet companies, She’s also the author of a fascinating new read, Secrets from the Eating Lab.
