In this powerful and practical episode, Vanessa sits down with returning guest Dr. Ted Naiman—board-certified physician, fitness expert, and author of the new book Satiety Per Calorie: Eating, Solved. Together, they unpack the revolutionary concept that could change the way you eat forever: satiety per calorie—a simple but groundbreaking way to eat more food, feel fuller, and effortlessly lose fat. Dr. Naiman explains why our modern food environment has hijacked hunger, how food processing dilutes satiety, and what we can do to take back control.

This episode is packed with actionable insights for women who want sustainable fat loss, improved body composition, and more energy—especially those following strength training, low-carb, or high-protein keto approaches.
