A lot of this is contained in a book I read (and didn't listen to) a while ago, called Why We Are Fat, by Gary Taubes. It completely eviscerates the thermodynamic model of weight loss (calories in, calories out). But some of it is also about chemicals like BPA that are in everyday products.

Well, well worth the read.

Yes, it was. Thanks.

But also, it's kind of discouraging.... OTOH there's no reason to stop any of the healthy behaviors we're all trying to incorporate. Like not eating after a certain time of day, avoiding sugary, processed foods etc....
