14. Michael Moss on How the Food Industry is Keeping Us Hooked

from The Daily Ascent

In this episode, I have a conversation with Michael Moss, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter, to discuss his newly released book Hooked: Food, Free Will, and How the Food Giants Exploit Our Addictions. We talk about how food is designed to unknowingly keep us hooked and addicted and how free will (and maybe even intuitive eating!) isn't as useful as we think. We also get into exactly how the multi-billion diet industry seriously has us *HOOKED* and some awesome and simple solutions that can help us rewire our brain and create a new relationship with food.    Michael Moss is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Salt Sugar Fat: How the Food Giants Hooked Us, a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter formerly with The New York Times, a keynote speaker, and an occasional guest on shows like CBS This Morning, Dr. Oz, CNN's The Lead, All Things Considered, and The Daily Show.   You can find out more by following Michael on Instagram and by visiting his website here. I'm also obsessed with knowing all about you, so please follow (and DM!)  me on Instagram, Facebook and my website. We're in this together and the journey is going to be so awesome.
