QUALITY > QUANTITY

Scientists are now claiming that overeating is not the primary cause of obesity, but that what you eat is of far greater importance.1 They suggest that weight gain is largely down to hormonal responses to changes in food quality. Heavily processed carbohydrates are rapidly absorbed and cause hormonal responses that fundamentally change your metabolism, driving fat storage and weight gain. It turns out not all calories are equal, so fill up on plenty of whole foods and limit the ultra-processed snacks if you’re watching your waistline.
