The politics of eating is a funny thing.
At Massive Health, we talk about the power of feedback loops to change behavior. The answer to why they work is nuanced. Boiled down, though, it’s simple: our brains are wired to reward us for learning patterns. When there isn’t a good feedback loop, we still draw conclusions, but they are much less likely to be the right ones. One of the reasons there are so many diets (yep, over 100 named ones) is that it’s hard to figure out what works. The lag between eating a certain way and the way it affects your body is long.
There’s a lot of research on eating both questionable and valid. One of the reasons we love building The Eatery is that, for the first time, it gives insight into the way people eat at massive scale. We hope to be able to start answering some of these questions with that big-data buzz word.
Yesterday, we released an infographic that got people talking. A lot. It has a bold claim: eating fat doesn’t make you fat. With all the questionable data on eating, where did we get ours? A lot of it came from a book “Why We Get Fat” by Gary Taubes, which is a shorter version of his much longer literature-review book “Good Calories, Bad Calories”.
