In SUPER Body, Dr. William Davis, MD, exposes why current weight-loss methods—including drugs like Ozempic—don’t lead to long-term success and can have serious health consequences. One of the most important reasons underlying this phenomenon is that most weight-loss strategies involve loss of muscle mass, while weight regain is almost entirely fat. Cutting calories, injecting a drug, or undergoing bariatric surgery doesn’t address the underlying causes of obesity and worse, causes more health problems, so health issues and the weight come back full force.

Fat is an obsession, a dirty word, a subject of national handwringing - and, according to biochemist Sylvia Tara, the least understood part of our body. You may not love your fat, but your body certainly does. In fact your body is actually endowed with many self-defense measures to hold on to fat. For example, fat can use stem cells to regenerate; increase our appetite if it feels threatened; and use bacteria, genetics, and viruses to expand itself. The secret to losing 20 pounds? You have to work with your fat, not against it.
