WaPo Article Claims Food Causes "obesity" Part 2 - The Reporting

from Weight and Healthcare · host Ragen Chastain

Literally hundreds of people reached out to me to write about it and most of them were asking about the article from the Washington Post “What causes ob*sity? A major new study is upending common wisdom.” Today I’m going to talk about that article. If you haven’t read part 1, I recommend checking that out first, because I’m going to be referring to it a lot. Get full access to Weight and Healthcare at weightandhealthcare.substack.com/subscribe
