Best Of: Inside The Low Info Diet

The Quicky will be back with new episodes from January 15, but until then here’s one of our favourite episodes of this year. Thank you so much for being a part of The Quicky in 2023.  Every day we are surrounded by endless information. We are taking things in when we check our phones, turn on the tv, go to the supermarket, get in our cars. It's almost inescapable. Most of us carry phones with us all day everyday. Phones that have the entire internets knowledge at the end of our fingertips.  With our lives now so information saturated, there is research stating that our cognitive function is being impaired by too much information.  A few years ago, entrepreneur Tim Ferriss introducer a concept called the 'low-information diet'. The concept is to limit our intake of unnecessary information to free up time and brain space.  In this episode of The Quicky, we look at what a low-information diet is and whether it's right for you.  Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?
