Gary Taubes Lecture

If you've got some free time, listen to this lecture from Gary Taubes on his new book, "Good Calories, Bad Calories." I've read the book and listened to the lecture off and on. I'm still digesting it all, but it's all very fascinating.

The gist of the lecture is that we have misinterpreted the energy balance=energy intake-energy expenditure formula of weight loss. He also talks about the concept of "internal starvation" where your energy is pushed into fat cells and away from other cells, among other topics.

Check it out.
