1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Have you ever wondered why the foods you crave don’t always leave you feeling your best after eating them? What if you knew&amp;nbsp;these foods are designed to be addictive and play with our dopamine levels? This is what happens in&amp;nbsp;ultra-processed foods. But what do we mean when we say ultra-processed food? How do they impact our health and how we experience eating? In this two-part series, we speak with&amp;nbsp;Barry Smith, PhD, sensory expert, founding director of the Center for the Study of Senses, and a scientist that has worked with food companies and learned how hard they work to hijack our food cravings, about what defines ultra-processed foods, how companies work to make these foods addictive, and what exactly is happening in our&amp;nbsp;brains&amp;nbsp;to crave these unhealthy foods.
