À propos de cet audio

From the national best-selling author of Racing Weight, Matt Fitzgerald exposes the irrationality, half-truths, and downright impossibility of a "single right way" to eat and reveals how to develop rational, healthy eating habits.

From "the Four-Hour Body" to "Atkins," there are diet cults to match seemingly any mood and personality type. Everywhere we turn, someone is preaching the "one true way" to eat for maximum health. Paleo Diet advocates tell us that all foods less than 12,000 years old are the enemy. Low-carb gurus demonize carbs, and then there are the low-fat prophets. But they agree on one thing: There is only one true way to eat for maximum health. The first clue that this is a fallacy is the sheer variety of diets advocated. Indeed, while all of these competing views claim to be backed by science, a good look at actual nutritional science suggests it is impossible to identify a single best way to eat. Fitzgerald advocates an agnostic, rational approach to eating habits based on one's own habits, lifestyle, and genetics and body type. Many professional athletes already practice this "Good Enough" diet, and now we can too—and ditch the brainwashing of these diet cults for good.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Matt gives a great balanced perspective diets and the underlying problem many people have with food. I recommend this book if you have ever thought any food was "bad" and are looking for health through food.

Eye-opening

Everything that every nutrition book should contain. This book is incredible and everyone should read it. It destroys so many terrible myths and so much misinformation and nonsense pervading the world of food. There were moments I wished I could run and hug Matt Fitzgerald for doing such a fantastic job of presenting the accurate side of nutrition in a format those of us without a degree in biochemistry can digest. I have already recommended this book to the food and science enthusiasts I know, and I will continue to recommend it to everyone because this is an incredible collection of knowledge. Bravo, Mr. Fitzgerald.

Absolutely amazing book

Changed my review from 5 to 4 stars as I kept listening. The book does a good job dismantling diet fads but makes dubious claims of its own(David Hume's deathbed conversion, David Blaine's 44 day 'fast'). Read with a skeptical mind.

A good defense of common sense in dieting, but

If binge listening is a thing that's what I did. Just couldn't stop listening - as my cult diet life flashed before my eyes!

Game Changer!

save your credit, and listen to Metabolical by Dr. ROBERT LUSTIG. He too. is diet agnostic, but instead of saying things like "research overwhelming says that..." like this author does, overwhelmingly often. he actually quotes the research.

any book that suggests that a glass of fruit juice is the same as a portion of real fresh fruit is automatically discredited.

mis informed. but entertaining

The book is OK, even has interesting sections, but the tone of the book is arrogant, condescending, and patronizing. The author is the ONLY person who knows The Truth

Arogant and condescending
