Ep. 38: The Physiology of Fat Loss Without a Caloric Deficit

In this episode we discuss: The physiology of fat loss without a calorie deficit or cutting carbs or fat Why insulin doesn’t cause fat gain Where excess calories go if they aren’t stored as fat Why increasing “fat-burning” doesn’t increase fat loss Why it’s nearly impossible to accurately measure “calories in” and “calories out” How an energy surplus can lead to healthy fat loss   Sign up for the free Energy Balance Mini-Course here: https://jayfeldmanwellness.com/energy/   Click here to check out the show notes: https://jayfeldmanwellness.com/ep-38-the-physiology-of-fat-loss-without-a-caloric-deficit/   Timestamps:   2:53  – the basics of fat loss without calorie, carb, or fat deficits 12:21 – the effects of hormones on fat gain and fat loss 21:12 – endotoxin and other factors that affect fat gain and fat loss 27:44 – a picture of fat loss without a calorie deficit 32:50 – is it even possible to accurately measure calories in and out? 36:56 – is the calorie in/calories out equation relevant to our physiology? 49:55 – the physiology of fat loss 53:36 – environmental factors as the culprit for weight gain1:01:48 – how an energy surplus can support fat loss
