Description
Calorie information is ubiquitous, appearing on packaged food, restaurant menus, and online recipes. We treat these numbers as authoritative, using them to count, cut, and control our diets. However, the reality is that the calorie counts we see everywhere are inaccurate. Obesity researcher Dr Giles Yeo challenges the conventional model, demonstrating that not all calories are created equal. He explains why popular diets succeed in the short term, but ultimately fail, and how our environment affects our body weight. By understanding that calories don't count, we can make different decisions about our eating habits. Yeo's book offers practical, science-based advice, accompanied by illuminating anecdotes. This approach provides a fresh perspective on dietary advice, making it an engaging and informative read. In "Why Calories Don't Count", Dr Giles Yeo shares his insights on the science behind weight loss and how it relates to our environment. By gaining a deeper understanding of the complex factors at play, you can begin to make more informed choices about your diet and develop a healthier relationship with food.
