Mike Carruthers: 本期节目讨论了美国人对手机的依赖程度，以及肥胖问题。数据显示，美国人平均每天查看手机344次，许多人承认自己沉迷于手机。 Mark Schatzker: 肥胖问题并非单纯吃得太多，而是吃得不好。大脑控制着我们的体重，节食失败是因为大脑的干预。人工甜味剂和脂肪替代品创造了卡路里的错觉，导致大脑对食物的错误评估，引发进一步的食欲。想要减肥，就应该避免加工食品，多吃天然食物，并享受食物的美味。享受真正美味的食物，才能让大脑感知到食物的营养价值，避免对卡路里的渴望。 Mark Schatzker: 决定吃什么，并非简单的理性选择，而是深层驱动的结果。暴饮暴食并非单纯的享乐过度，而是大脑奖赏机制失调的结果。肥胖者对食物的愉悦感降低，但对食物的渴望却增强，陷入渴望与满足感不足的恶性循环中。学习烹饪，需要一个循序渐进的过程，不要害怕犯错。改变人们对食物的看法至关重要，不要把食物看作敌人。几十年来，人们对食物的讨论都集中在脂肪和碳水化合物上，忽略了食物的味道。改变食物的感官特性，例如添加人工调味剂和甜味剂，改变了大脑与食物的关系，导致了人工饥饿感。天然食物更能带来满足感和营养感。

Why are some people overweight? The assumption is that they simply eat too much food and the way to lose weight is to simply eat less.

He is a writer-in-residence at the Modern Diet and Physiology Research Center at Yale University and author of the book The End Of Craving : Recovering the Lost Wisdom of Eating Well (https://amzn.to/3QPFS1l))
