What if your best body, clearest mind, and strongest sense of purpose were still ahead of you? That's the question I explore in this episode with Richard Rosenfeld, MD, MPH, MBA. He's a board-certified ENT, Director of Guidelines and Quality at the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, and one of the most published ENT researchers in the world—with nearly 400 peer-reviewed articles to his name.

Today, Dr. Lisa explores categorical self binding, a strategy where you intentionally avoid entire categories of food (like sugary drinks or ultra-processed snacks) to support weight loss, metabolic health, and potentially even cancer prevention. Unlike relying on willpower, binding creates systems that make healthier choices easier and more automatic over time.Dr. Lisa compares food addiction to substance addiction, highlighting that some of us may need firmer boundaries with hyperpalatable foods, not because there's something wrong with us, but because many foods have been engineered to hook us. While no foods are truly forbidden, experimenting with categorical binding can help reduce cravings and improve long-term habits—especially when done with flexibility and self-compassion.Thanks for listening!
