Episode 5 - Healing the Root Cause of Weight Gain
In today's episode, I'm thrilled to welcome my very first guest on the Finding Wendy: My Journey to Wellness podcast.
Dr. Jason Stanley reached out to me, expressing interest in joining the podcast, and after doing some research on his work, I knew he would make for an intriguing guest.
Jason began his exploration into the causes and cures of obesity with a medical anthropology field study in 1979. Since then, he has published multiple articles, authored two books, and conducted numerous clinical trials.
Most recently, in early 2022, he launched a groundbreaking clinical trial focused on neural plasticity to address the root cause of chronic emotional eating and obesity. The results have been remarkable, boasting an 85% success rate compared to the long-term industry standard of just 3%.
We had a fascinating conversation this morning, so let’s dive right in and start the interview with Jason.
