132. Food Is Information, Not Just Calories
from The Potential Project · host Sean Calhoun
Calories are only a small piece of the nutrition puzzle. The foods you eat influence your energy, mood, focus, cravings, hormones, and how long you stay full, and your body is constantly giving you feedback about how well it is using that fuel.In this episode, I break down the science in a simple, easy to understand way, including why two people can eat the same meal and feel completely different afterward. You will learn why some “healthy” foods can still leave you tired or hungry, how blood sugar, digestion, stress, and individuality all play a role, and how to start recognizing the signals your body is already sending.If you have ever felt like you are doing everything right but still feel stuck, this episode will help you shift from confusion to clarity and start making choices that actually support your body.
