In this episode of Behind the Binge, I\'m continuing our deep dive into Noom to uncover if they live up to the statements they claim. Noom claims to center its brand around "evidence-based behavioral science."

But do they?

Today, I will take you through the studies they use to back up their various claims so we can decide if they walk the walk, they\'re talking.

If you haven\'t listened to the first part,  make sure to go back and listen to Episode 32.
