DR. ERIC SODICOFF
- Certified Internal Medicine specialist
- Also an Obesity Specialist!
- Agrees chiropractors are not real doctors
GYMS & BRO SCIENCE
- Before big box gyms and bro science, people were thinner
- Now, thin is not what it meant before
- Fitness is considered the best way to lose weight — that is BS
- Eating badly = weight gain
- Going to a big fancy gym is no better than getting on the ground and doing crunches for the weight-loss goal
- Europe does not have the same problem as us, largely because bro science and exercise are BS here
- It is ALL ABOUT FOOD in reality
OBESITY MEDICINE
- Low fat does not work!
- He had trouble answering the question at first about people’s weights
- He learned more about diets, and realized the SAD was so wrong
- He had trouble answering the question at first about people’s weights
- Grelin and leptin are the main factors of obesity, and controlled by what you eat
AMERICA
- America is so fat compared to most countries
- We are stuffing people with processed crap!
- Sugar and grain is subsidized by the government
- This is the problem with America!!!
- People with highest BMI are those who buy subsidized crap
- In European countries, they eat some carbs, but they eat REAL food and in smaller portions than Americans, too
- We subsidize wheat, corn, and sugar because it makes America money!
