HTML:An eye-opening, myth-shattering examination of what makes us fat, from acclaimed science writer Gary Taubes.<br /> <br /> In his <i>New York Times</i> best seller, <i>Good Calories, Bad Calories,</i> Taubes argued that our diet’s overemphasis on certain kinds of carbohydrates—<i>not</i> fats and <i>not</i> simply excess calories—has led directly to the obesity epidemic we face today. The result of thorough research, keen insight, and unassailable common sense, <i>Good Calories, Bad Calories</i> immediately stirred controversy and acclaim among academics, journalists, and writers alike. Michael Pollan heralded it as “a vitally important book, destined to change the way we think about food.”<br /> <br /> Building upon this critical work in <i>Good Calories, Bad Calories</i> and presenting fresh evidence for his claim, Taubes now revisits the urgent question of what’s making us fat—and how we can change—in this exciting new book. Persuasive, straightforward, and practical, <i>Why We Get Fat</i> makes Taubes’s crucial argument newly accessible to a wider audience.<br /> <br /> Taubes reveals the bad nutritional science of the last century, none more damaging or misguided than the “calories-in, calories-out” model of why we get fat, and the good science that has been ignored, especially regarding insulin’s regulation of our fat tissue. He also answers the most persistent questions: Why are some people thin and others fat? What roles do exercise and genetics play in our weight? What foods should we eat, and what foods should we avoid?<br /> <br /> Packed with essential information and concluding with an easy-to-follow diet, <i>Why We Get Fat</i> is an invaluable key in our understanding of an international epidemic and a guide to what each of us can do about it.<br /> <br /> <br /> <b>Includes a bonus PDF with images from the book</b>.
