A revelatory expose of the bad science behind conventional weight loss advice, arguing for low-carb high-fat diets, from the bestselling author of The Case Against Sugar.
Gary Taubes is the author of the bestselling The Case Against Sugar, Why We Get Fat and The Diet Delusion. An award-winning science and health journalist, his writing has appeared in Discover, Science, the New York Times Magazine, the Atlantic, Nature and the British Journal of Medicine. He has received three Science in Society Journalism Awards from the National Association of Science writers, Investigator Award in Health Policy Research and is a co-founder of the Nutrition Science Initiative. He lives in Oakland, California.
Gary Taubes's book violates everything leading medical societies
and governmental agencies espouse -- but Taubes is right and they
are wrong. Medicine, like life, is about risk and benefit. This
book provides the best path for most people who are overweight or
obese to restore health
