About this product

Product Information

A groundbreaking study that reveals how decades of misleading science and policy unjustly demonized the high-fat diet, which might actually be our healthiest option. For the past 60 years we have been told that a low-fat diet can protect against obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Yet despite many of us taking this advice in the developed West, we are now in the midst of an obesity epidemic that is breeding serious health problems. Recent more rigorous scientific work has overturned some of the shoddier theories of earlier decades to demonstrate conclusively that we have been needlessly avoiding red meat, cheese, whole milk, and eggs for decades, and that we can now, guilt-free, welcome these delicious foods back into our lives.

  • Saturated advice

    Probably the most groundbreaking book ever written. Nina explains why the so called healthy diet hasn’t worked and why there are more cases of heart disease and cancer than ever before. It has changed the way I think about saturated fats and cholesterol.

  • A good challenge to mainstream diet norms

    This is a well researched book which shows that current guidelines on diets is not support by the actual evidence. It may change what you eat but otherwise it’s good to have a point of view that questions the mainstream thinking on diets and what is healthy.
