Food Intelligence: Why Ultra-Processed Foods Make Us Overeat | Kevin Hall, PhD

Why do ultra-processed foods make us eat more — even when calories, sugar, fat, and protein are matched? In this episode, Dr. Kevin Hall, author of Food Intelligence and one of the most influential scientists in metabolism and obesity research, breaks down the mechanisms driving overeating — and shares brand-new findings from his latest NIH study.

We dig into energy density, hyper-palatability, dopamine, food addiction, food policy, and how we can redesign the food system for real health impact — without hype or ideology. If you want clear, evidence-based answers about why we eat what we eat, this episode is for you.
