Description
Why We Get Fat And What to Do About It by Gary Taubes
This revised edition of Gary Taubes' groundbreaking work challenges the conventional wisdom on diet and exercise, presenting fresh evidence for his claim that our weight is determined by more than just calorie intake.
Taubes examines the bad nutritional science of the past century, including the widely discredited "calories-in, calories-out" model, and reveals the good science that has been ignored. He answers questions on why some people are thin while others are fat, the role of exercise and genetics in weight management, and provides a practical diet plan to help readers achieve their goals.
