Why Eating MORE Could Be Your Weight Loss Solution (Controversial Truth)

Could eating more actually be the answer to weight loss? Everything you've been told about dieting might be wrong. In this episode of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes sits down with gut health expert Liz Roman to unpack a controversial truth: restrictive eating might be sabotaging your health, metabolism, and fitness goals. Together, they explore how fueling your body with the right amount (and type) of food can be the key to unlocking long-term success.

Liz Roman brings her expertise in digestive health to explain how under-eating disrupts your body's natural balance. From gut issues like bloating and constipation to hormone imbalances that stall metabolism, they discuss how starving your body of essential calories could be the root of your frustrations. Liz dives into why eating less isn't always better, especially for ambitious professionals and athletes aiming to perform at their peak in work, life, and fitness.

Host Robert Sikes draws from his experience as a natural bodybuilder and ketogenic nutrition expert, delivering insights tailored to the driven, high-achieving men who make up much of the audience. He and Liz discuss how ambitious professionals can balance their demanding lifestyles with health strategies that build sustainable success. Together, they crush the myths of diet culture, explaining why a balanced approach to food is essential for busy leaders and athletes.

Throughout the episode, they focus on practical solutions. Liz highlights how improving gut health can transform digestion and performance, explaining the role of bile, stomach acid, and nutrient absorption in building a healthier, stronger body. Whether it's the challenges that come after gallbladder removal or the struggles of hormone repair, this conversation provides the strategies you need to fuel your body right.

Robert and Liz reframe how you should think about food, encouraging a focus on consistent nourishment that supports energy, mental clarity, and professional success.
