This didn't seem to explain how to beat overeating. It just explained the mechanism why people could be overeating.

A solution to the obesity problem worldwide is very simple Reduce the price of healthy food and increase the price of junk food I can get a whole trolley full of junk food for less than $30A (enough to keep me fed and happy for a week) But for the same $30A I can get enough food that is healthy and balanced to last me maybe 1 day (2 if I am really lucky) Can you see the problem here?
-
But what if I overeat because I hate myself, is there a video that covers that
-
how about the science of binge eating?
-
I stopped eating candy for a couple of weeks, and now I wanna puke any time I eat it. Sure I still enjoy it in very small portions but still…

I'm watching this video while eating chocolate digestives... oh the irony
-
at 0:44 if you look at the bottom left corner it looks like a person winking with a moustache and long hair

Why do we almost always desire things or people that we can't have?

What we tried to emphasize is that eating unhealthy foods (those with very high fat and sugar content) can cause you to eat even more. They end up causing stronger cravings for food in the future. So one way to 'beat' this, is to change what types of foods you are eating. People who eat balanced and healthy meals end up being less hungry (in general). So think about the foods you eat. While fat and sugar are still important, in moderation, eat balanced meals. Stay tuned for more on this topic

How to beat it? First time you guys let me down a little. It might be implied but the title is still misleading. But most importantly; Why nothing about whether this is reversible? This just brings people down who might not have a very healthy diet. And if you can't reverse it and you just didn't want to mention it... Don't choose a title like that. Love your content in general. Lots of love and support from Holland!

Hey I am a teacher from Australia and have used many of your videos for pastoral, well being and general teaching. I would love to see a video on the importance of breakfast in the morning, as so many of my students skip breakfast and end up eating unhealthy throughout the day. - Thanks for all your videos they are awesome

I'm on a diet right now and when I see sweets I just want them so badly.

There is a lot of information out there you can find about how to eat a healthy and balanced meal. They commonly involve a majority of fruits and vegetables along with a combination of all food groups. These meals are rich in the vitamins and nutrients your body will effectively metabolize to maintain health. This video shows how our bodies ability to monitor appetite can be disrupted by eating high fat and high sugar diets. More videos to come about the science of health and nutrition.

I got a question. Why do people relate a scent to a characteristic? For example, a perfume scent is described as 'sweet', when in reality, it tastes bitter. Another example is men fragrance. How can we smell something and relate it to the strong, manly characteristics of men?
-
speaking of eating, why are we told to eat three times a day. I wonder if there is a scientific reason
-
A good thing to do, along with regular exercise, is to eat your meals slower, so your metabolism doesn't freak out at the sudden intake of calories so quick, and stores it immediately. Eating in-between meals is good, but try to go for only a few apple slices, etc. instead of the whole apple (just an analogy), to prevent overeating during mealtime, and freaking out your metabolism again. Breakfast is essential, as well as drinking water as soon as you wake up. :)

This video makes me nostalgic for the old leptin argument days. Increasing leptin was thought of as a way to prevent overeating. However, after 4 weeks the body acclimates to the increased amount and dulls its own leptin receptors (kinda like insulin resistance). Makes me wish I would have stocked up on Leptigen back in the day (claimed to be a leptin receptor sensitizer). Oh well.

It is one of the best videos about over eating I ever seen ! The brain needs about 20 minutes to recive impulse from our stomach we are full, so the cruicial is to eat slow to not overeat.

My dad and I have been doing this thing where we buy a bunch of healthy food on Sunday and make them into multiple meals that we can have during next week. It normally ends up being a lot cheaper than impulsive buying and it's good if you're the kind of person that wants to eat healthy but just doesn't have the time or the patients to make anything.
