Founder, Chief Science Officer
CurrentI founded Pally Health using my behavioral neuroscience and my metabolism and physiology expertise. Modern scientific research has confirmed what you already know: that willpower doesn't work for compulsive eating.But there's good news — behavioral neuroscience is unveiling tools that can transform our emotional relationship to food for good.Studies show that we can effectively increase motivation and self-control, decrease stress-responses, regulate the "feel-good" chemical dopamine, and develop self-awareness and compassion with simple yet powerful daily practices. Pally is the first program to combine a low-insulin-producing diet with truly effective behavior-change tools to help bariatric patients qualify for weight-loss surgery and prepare for a healthy, post-op life. Every year 345,000 people start the pre-op process but drop out before surgery, representing $5B in lost revenue for bariatric clinics.
