In this episode, Dr. Gladden and nutrition expert Sarah Kennedy discuss Calocurb, a natural extract that uses evolutionary biology to suppress appetite. The discovery focuses on bitter taste receptors (T2Rs) located throughout the gastrointestinal tract, which historically served as a protective mechanism to slow the consumption of potentially toxic substances. By using a specific New Zealand hop extract, Calocurb triggers these receptors to signal the brain that the body is full. This process stimulates the natural release of satiety hormones—GLP-1, CCK, and PYY—effectively quieting "hunger noise" and reducing caloric intake without the need for synthetic pharmaceuticals.
