Your body isn’t broken — it’s doing exactly what it was designed to do.

[00:00:00]Your body thinks that you're trying to kill it. When we lose weight, the body has this impetus to try to preserve the weight that we have. Why? Because the brain-gut axis doesn't know that we're working on a different paradigm than what it was designed to deal with. So, in prehistoric times, food insecurity and a constant need for locomotion was a daily fact of life. These days, not so much. You're never farther than 5 minutes away from the next set of calories that you're going to consume and assimilate. Well, that's a new kind of reality for the body and the genetics our minds and the brain-gut axis just haven't adjusted appropriately because evolution built your body to survive the famine, not survive the buffet.
