I’m curious to read through it.
Would be interesting to see how it relates to weight loss.I think I get triggered when writers say calories are irrelevant. What might be more correct is that calorie counting may be unnecessary if you have a better awareness of how to manage your hunger spikes and urge to overeat. Because you are less likely to gain weight and fat.
Carrots and hummus are a bad example for me, because it’s one of the foods I can’t stop eating once I start.
Like sweet and salty popcorn and manomasa tortilla chips.
Definitely possible to derail a weight loss diet by eating hummus. (Peanut butter also gets an honourable mention of foods I need to avoid)

I would recommend reading or listening to the book I suggested above or checking out the glucose goddess on Instagram. It seems pretty revolutionary to me and if it works out a real game changer that’s easily incorporated into life. The hunger comes from the crash in bloody sugar so you need to try and flatten the peaks and troughs, it’s actually pretty easily done with loads of “hacks”. For instance eating some carrot sticks and hummus (fibre) before your normal meal massively affects the glucose and insulin response and whether your body stores or burns fats and how hungry you feel. Essentially you want to avoid eating starchy carbs first if possible.
