Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It - Gary Taubes | Talks at Google
An eye-opening, myth-shattering examination of what makes us fat, from acclaimed science writer Gary Taubes.
Building
upon this critical work in Good Calories, Bad Calories, Taubes revisits
the urgent question of what's making us fat and how we can change in
this exciting new book. Persuasive, straightforward, and practical, Why
We Get Fat makes Taubess crucial argument newly accessible to a wider
audience.
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 insulins 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?
Packed
with essential information and concluding with an easy-to-follow diet,
Why We Get Fat is an invaluable key in our understanding of an
international epidemic and a guide to what each of us can do about it.
