Each Sunday, TED shares an episode of another podcast we think you'll love, handpicked for you… by us. From metabolism gummies to spicy foods, the Keto diet to intricate exercise routines — it seems there’s always something that is being sold or promoted to speed up your metabolism. But do most of us even know what our metabolism IS? And is there any way to hack it (you know, so we can eat pizza all day and not stress about it)? In this episode of Body Stuff with Dr. Jen Gunter, Dr. Jen outlines what science knows about this process and why the myths and misunderstandings about our metabolism’s ability to change can actually do us more harm than good. Listen to more from Body Stuff with Dr. Jen Gunter wherever you are listening to this.
