Clears up a lot of myths about metabolism, diet, healthy eating. Proper science. Read it

Excelente leitura Conteúdo rico e profundo

Good book with lots of good information. A good read and not super hard to understand and follow

Enjoyable and easy read except the part explaining the kleb cycle I came across this when doing a short course on nutrition and never really understood it and still dont. I get the concept and moved on. It is quite a long read and I did not get as much out of it as I would have liked. You only burn 50 kcals walking a mile, calculation of basic metabolic rate. Very interesting when explaining how your body has a limit on how many calories you burn no matter how much you exercise. Need to move more etc and wonderful references to the latest scientific studies from all over the world. Exercise is not effective when trying to lose weight but great for other things and also for keeping your weight off once you lose it. I originally ordered this book then cancelled it when I checked the index and there was no mention of alcohol which is 10% of my daily diet and much higher for friends and family. I am glad I changed my mind thought. I don't understand how he says a mans daily calorie intake is 2,500 -3000. I did a food diary for 1 year and mine was just under 2000 a day to maintain my weight.
