Why We Love Food That Doesn't Love Us Back is an entertaining, humorous, science-based presentation by Jon O'Neal, MD, MPH, a Harvard-trained physician and is board-certified in Occupational Medicine by the American Board of Preventive Medicine. Drawing on evolutionary biology and nutrition science, Dr. O'Neal explores why we crave sugar, fat, meat, and salt, how our ancient survival instincts influence modern eating habits, and how understanding these biological drives can help us make healthier food choices without sacrificing the pleasure of eating.
