About this product

Product Information

A FINANCIAL TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR 'Fascinating' Nigella Lawson 'Ground-breaking' Bee Wilson 'I guarantee his book will change the way you think about food and healthy eating' Delicious Magazine 'A fascinating and original look at the impact of food on our bodies underpinned by cutting-edge research' Michael Mosley Why do most diets fail? Why does one person eat a certain meal and gain weight, while another eating the same meal loses pounds? Why, despite all the advice about what to eat, are we all still getting fatter? The answers are much more surprising - and fascinating - than we've been led to believe. The key to health and weight loss lies not in the latest fad diet, nor even in the simple mantra of 'eat less, exercise more', but in the microbes already inside us. Drawing on the latest science and his own pioneering research, Professor Tim Spector demystifies the common misconceptions about fat, calories, vitamins and nutrients. Only by understanding what makes our own personal microbes tick can we overcome the confusion of modern nutrition, and achieve a healthy gut and a healthy body.

    Makes alot of sense

    I have a huge amount of respect for Tim Spector, primarily due to the pandemic. I'm only 20 pages in but looking after your microbes makes complete sense, especially seeing as a healthy gut helps with covid, which is scientifically proven. Would highly recommend this book instead of spending a fortune on diets that mainly fail & also keeping your insides healthy at the same time

    Feel book will assist my weight loss and understanding.

    Excellent condition of Diet Myth book. Seen Tim Spector talk about his diet research on TV. Found him to have great depth of knowledge. I've only just started reading, but makes some sensible links to diet, genetics and exercise.

    Essential reading for everyone

    Whether you are young or old, a parent of young children or not you need to read this book about what we eat. Properly researched with references to back up the facts this book dispels myths and opens up a new way to decide what to eat. You’ll be surprised if not shocked by what you discover in it. If you’ve read the books by Dr Mike Mosely and Dr Chatterjee this book reveals the evidence behind their claims

    A Refreshing, Informative Read!

    Not long started reading this book but am enjoying what I have read, so far. I follow Prof Tim Spector on Zoe app, YouTube and Instagram. Because of him, my family have begun eating various fermented foods and drinks daily ….. and enjoying them!

    Finally some useful scientific information

    An eye opener! I brought it not to lose weight, but to see if I can get rid of my gird and finally stop taking my tablets, my doctor has given me the go ahead.

    Informative and illuminating - it could change your life.

    This is a book which could benefit everyone. It gives an enormous amount of information about how what we eat can effect our health and well-being. The writing style is appealing and all the information is backed by science which is presented in a very understandable way.

    Great book!

    Tim Spector cuts through the mountain of nutritional advice in a sensible and unbiased (as much as anyone can when it comes to diet) way. His book is a refreshing alternative to reductionist dietary books and contradictory daily mail headlines that unfortunately crowd out this market.
