In this episode, Jake and Suzanne review the International Society of Sports Nutrition's position stand on diets and body composition. They discuss the organization's background and the purpose of a position stand. The key takeaway from the paper is that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to fat loss. The most important factors are being in a calorie deficit, consuming adequate protein, and finding a sustainable way of eating.
