It’s no secret that the world is full of misinformation, from schools that teach outdated information to misinformed—but well-meaning—friends and family. Even the influencers are swearing by specific diets, products, and magical diets that promise to help you shed weight instantly. It’s no wonder most people have no idea where to start when it comes to eating better. Hungry for Truth takes a different approach. Author Tatiana Keay is on a mission to expose nutrition misinformation, dispel common inaccurate beliefs, and provide evidence-based nutritional truths.

Avoid sugars and refined grains. Instead, eat fruits, vegetables, beans, lentils, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats (a sensible, plant-based, Mediterranean-style diet). Let your body burn fat between meals. Don’t snack. Be active throughout your day. Build muscle tone. Consider a simple form of intermittent fasting. Limit the hours of the day when you eat, and for best effect, make it earlier in the day (between 7 am to 3 pm, or even 10 am to 6 pm, but definitely not in the evening before bed). Avoid snacking or eating at nighttime, all the time.

Food Isn't Medicine wades through nutritional science (both good and bad) to demystify the common diet myths that many of us believe without questioning. If you have ever wondered whether you should stop eating sugar, try fasting, juicing or 'alkaline water', or struggled through diet after diet (none of which seem to work), this book will be a powerful wake-up call.

Based on 20 years of investigative reporting and interviews with 100 practicing physicians who embrace the keto lifetstyle as the best prescription for their patients' health, Taubes' book puts the ketogenic diet movement in the necessary historical and scientific perspective. It makes clear the vital misconceptions in how we've come to think about obesity and diet (no, people do not become fat simply because they eat too much; hormones play the critical role) and uses the collected clinical experience of the medical community to provide essential practical advice.

In the late 1970s when the government mandated we get the fat out of our food, the food industry responded by pouring more sugar in. The result has been a perfect storm, disastrously altering our biochemistry and driving our eating habits out of our control. To help us lose weight and recover our health, Robert Lustig presents personal strategies to readjust the key hormones that regulate hunger, reward, and stress; and societal strategies to improve the health of the next generation.

Contrary to what supplement manufacturers will tell you, you don’t need any expensive shakes or teas to detox your body. Remember that your body is a very smart and complicated machine that knows how to cleanse itself if you allow it to. However, the typical Western lifestyle effectively reduces natural detoxing to the bare minimum necessary for survival. This is why so many people suffer from joint pain, digestion issues, and other diseases caused by chronic inflammation. This is why there’s an epidemic of obesity. This is why mental health issues have become so prevalent.

US News, the journal Cell Metabolism, and BBC News are just a few examples of media where you can learn more about why fasting is the answer that you have been searching for. The American Cancer Society and the American Diabetes Association also explain how fasting has the power to help you heal your body naturally, as well as lose that unwanted weight (and even live longer in the process!). This means that you can reach all your goals without the challenges of a strict diet or lifestyle plan - which, to be honest, is not sustainable! That is why you are here.

Publisher's summary
Please note: This is a review and analysis of the book, not the original book. This review and analysis is not endorsed by or affiliated with Gary Taube.
We are simply inundated with diet and nutrition advice. It seems that every book contradicts the other. I heard once that if you really want to know how much we know about something, see how many books are written on the topic. If we have many books, it means we don't really know much about it. Each book has a different theory. However, there are some books out there that truly break the mold. Why We Get Fat is one of them. It shatters all the preconceived notions as to why we get fat and what we can do about it.
In this edition of Summary Shorts, we will discuss, analyze and summarize the main points of the book.
Enjoy!

Advice about food can be confusing. There's usually only one thing experts can agree on: some ingredients - often the most enjoyable ones - are bad for you, full stop. But as Aaron Carroll explains, these oversimplifications are both wrong and dangerous: if we stop consuming some of our most demonized ingredients altogether, it may actually hurt us.

Paradoxically, it's only when we stop struggling against our fearfulness that we begin to find lasting freedom from it.
