What happens to our minds when we restrict ourselves from food? Believe us: a LOT! Hannah and Tareq share seminal experiments and more recent research into the world of restriction and how it affects our psychology. From binging to feelings of guilt and the infamous binge-restrict cycle, this episode breaks it all down. The conversation ends with some recent work into calorie restriction mimetics... a new path forward or hype?
