QUESTIONS I ASK DR. JAMPOLIS IN THE EPISODE:

  • Can you tell us a bit about your background? (Specifically, what led you to become a board certified nutrition specialist?)
  • First, I’d love to talk about your books Spice Up, Slim Down and Spice Up, Live Long… What motivated you to write books on spices? Are there a few bang-for-your-buck spices that we should all be using?
  • Okay, now onto your weight loss recommendations… If you had to summarize your weight loss philosophy on a billboard, what would it read?
  • What are your top recommendations for permanent weight loss?
  • Why is it harder to lose weight each time you gain it back?
  • What should we eat to lose weight?
  • If someone is experiencing intense cravings, what’s your advice for them?
  • Is there anything you’ve changed your mind about (re: weight loss or nutrition) over the years?
