Episode 188: Once You Know This, Every Diet Becomes a PSYOP
Oct 03, 2025
Every diet is a psychological operation. Just like governments use manipulation and propaganda to control their people, the diet industry uses these same PSYOP tactics to control you.
Today, you’re going to get the playbook that links the 5 steps of government control and exposes how the diet industry is manipulating you to be a lifelong customer. In the 4th step, you’ll get your question answered whether this is actually a conspiracy or not.
You’ll also get your own playbook on how to spot these 5 steps, so you can stop falling for them and finally take back control over your weight and health.
Together, we will unpack:
- Why every diet is a PSYOP. How the diet industry uses manipulation, propaganda, and control to keep you a lifelong customer.
- The 5-step Playbook and how each step quietly sabotages weight loss.
- The distraction that pulls you into emotional eating and away from your goals.
- Brain science in plain English: limbic system vs. prefrontal cortex, and why urgency, stress, and decision fatigue lead to automatic overeating.
- How mainstream solutions like diets, Big Food, and GLP-1s keep you under their control.
- Your counter-playbook to spot the PSYOP and break the pattern.
