  1. 54:03 Poor Attia still stuck on the old myth that “a calorie is a calorie”. The primary damage of junk food isn’t that it highjacks ur appetite, it’s that the body isn’t designed to intake/process those ultra processed foods. Overeating isn’t the only issue - which is why there are tons of people that aren’t overweight and appear healthy on the outside but still end up with heart attacks and strokes. If hormones and the complex machinery inside the human body didn’t exist then, yes, a calorie would be a calorie.

  2. 1:02:18 - yes, he doesn’t know how to explain it because he still thinks a calorie is a calorie. Attia is so stuck on only believing what he’s read in a paper that he can’t just use common sense and reason backwards to a hypothesis. Evidence based practice is great, but if you’re too strict on that then you’ll always be years behind the most current CORRECT ideas out there.
