Building upon his crucial function in Good Calories, Bad Calories and showing new proof for his claim, Gary Taubes revisits the immediate issue of what’s producing us fat—and how we can change. He shows the bad dietary science of the final century—none more harmful or misguided compared to “calories-in, calories-out” type of why we get fat—and the good science that's been overlooked. The most persistent questions are also answered by him: Why are many people slim and others fat? What functions do genetics and workout play within our fat? What foods should we eat, and what foods should we prevent?
