Featured Topic: Can Some Foods Cripple Your Body's Ability To Burn Fat?

In today's featured topic, I interview Jonathan Bailor, author of a soon-to-be released book on smart and healthy eating, why Americans have gotten fat, and what we can do about it. During our discussion, I ask Jonathan:

1) which foods can cripple our ability to burn fat?

2) how can we burn fat without changing how many calories we eat? Is that possible?

3) do people spend too much time on cardio?

4) what form of exercise is best for maximizing fat loss?

5) how can we fix hormonal issues that could be causing fat gain or inability to lose weight?

6) You say that big business and government are burying all of this so that they can keep their oversized profits and budgets. Please expound.

As soon as I have more details on Jonathan's forthcoming book, I'll let you know!
