EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode of The Diary of a CEO, featuring Dr. Jason Fung and Steven Bartlett, Exercise Doesn't Make You Lose Weight! Doctor Jason Fung explores jason Fung Dismantles Calorie Myth, Prescribes Fasting For Lasting Weight Loss Dr. Jason Fung argues that the dominant “calories in, calories out” model is technically true but shallow and largely useless for solving obesity and type 2 diabetes. He reframes weight gain as a hormone-driven process—especially involving insulin, leptin, cortisol, and GLP‑1—shaped by food quality, processing, and eating frequency rather than simple calorie counts.
