About this listen

 Uncover the truth about metabolism and weight management through the lens of hormonal science. Dr. Ben Synth reveals how insulin, leptin, and ghrelin work as your body's appetite and weight control system, explaining why "calories in, calories out" is an oversimplified approach to weight management. Explore the powerful role of thyroid hormones in controlling your metabolic rate, discover why some people seem to have "slow metabolism," and learn how cortisol and other stress hormones can sabotage your weight loss efforts. This comprehensive episode covers how diet timing, exercise type, sleep quality, and stress levels all influence your metabolic hormones, providing science-based strategies for optimizing your body's natural fat-burning and energy-regulation systems without falling for fad diets.
