About this product

Product Information

A brilliant debunking of the popular misconceptions on health and diet that also takes a hard look at the corporate world of the diet industry Where mainstream nutritional science has demonised dietary fat for 50 years, hundreds of millions of dollars of research have failed to prove that eating a low-fat diet will help you live longer. Nutrition and obesity scientists have struggled to make sense of the paradox that obesity has become an epidemic, that diabetes rates have soared and the incidence of heart disease has not declined despite the fact that society is more diet and health aware today than generations ago.The Diet Delusion is an in-depth, scientific, groundbreaking examination of what actually happens in your body as a result of what you eat, rather than what the diet industry might have you believe happens and is essential reading for anyone trying to decide which diet - low-fat or low-carbohydrate - is truly the healthy diet.For years we have been deluded by the dieting industry. Now it's time to find out the truth.

Another one for the unread book shelf.
I bought this book on the recommendation of Gretchen Ruben, a writer and podcaster. I found it to be impenetrable and therefore, for me, unreadable. Try it for yourself, it may be just the book you’re waiting for.
