We are joined on the show today by Dr. Agnes Ayton, a consulting psychiatrist at Oxford who has been doing some amazing work on eating disorders and ultra-processed foods.
Today’s discussion centers around the question, ‘What are the implications of the changing patterns of food consumption—both on metabolic, neurobiological pathways, and on eating disorders?’ We discuss the historical perspective on eating disorders such as anorexia (as far back as the Middle Ages), binge eating disorder, current research linking insulin resistance with these disorders, the history of ultra-processed food, food additives, and much more!
