E56: Gremlin Hormones
Manage episode 376292218 series 3372488
An amazing new study was published in June 2023 which found an actual biological difference in the brains of thin people versus the brains of people with obesity that can actually maybe explain why some people "can just stop eating" and others can't seem to. This week, Katie delves into that study and what it found, breaking down the different types of hormones including a slightly more in depth discussion on insulin, insulin resistance, and how researchers might have finally figured out why it is SO hard to lose weight and keep it off - AND how that all might relate to ADHD, especially ADHDers who struggle with binge eating and binge eating disorders.
