About this product

Product Information

What's making us fat? And how can we change? Building upon his critical work in Good Calories, Bad Calories and presenting fresh evidence for his claim, bestselling author Gary Taubes revisits these urgent questions. 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. 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? Persuasive, straightforward, and practical, Why We Get Fat is an essential guide to nutrition and weight management. Complete with an easy-to-follow diet. Featuring a new afterword with answers to frequently asked questions. Don't miss Gary Taubes's latest book, The Case Against Sugar, available now.

  • Enlightening read

    This book is superb, it exposes how corporate greed, facilitated by government failings at best has lead to an obesity epidemic. More importantly there are superb recommendations to help reverse the effects of the Western diet on our ever expanding waistlines. This particular book was the first one I've read which advocates a low-carb approach to 'dieting', although I prefer to label it a 'life choice'. I have gone on the read further books on the subject, however 'Why we get fat' started me on the road to losing 40lbs to date and counting. I now know what to eat and more importantly what to try to avoid. Anyone who has struggled yo-yo dieting must read this book, it could save your life!

  • Easy to understand & follow !

    This book puts right the mis-information we've been fed for decades . I've followed the advice in it, for only a few weeks, & I've already lost 6 kgs My Blood Sugar levels are stable, & as a type 2 diabetic, that means so much to me. I'm getting on for 80 & never take any medication, & I don't want to start.. I was so pleased to read & dispel the Myth of " Calories In calories out " as I eat such a tiny amount, & my Sister eats lot's, & still weighs 7st 3. So thank you Gary Taubes, for all the honest advice in this book, I am now going to search out more of the ones you've written, as i can't get enough of the " Truth " I'm no longer happy to be mislead by the mainstream beliefs .I'll be back to review those later.
