1007: Tactical Frustration

Why You Eat What You Eat, Sensory Cues, and Obesity

Author Rebecca Hertz discusses her book "Why You Eat What You Eat," explaining how non-food odors like crayons can deter cravings while vanilla increases appetite. She notes that loud music in restaurants or engine noise on airplanes dampens the perception of sweet and salty tastes. The segment also references a study suggesting a high correlation between childhood sexual abuse and adult obesity as a subconscious defense mechanism.
