Fats, Carbs, and the Controversial Science of Diet and Health
"The most rigorous examination of the diet-disease relationship ever written — and a devastating critique of modern nutrition science."
Gary Taubes spent five years reviewing decades of nutrition research and uncovered a troubling truth: much of what we've been told about diet and health is wrong. Taubes argues that refined carbohydrates and sugar, not fat and cholesterol, are the primary drivers of obesity, heart disease, and metabolic dysfunction. This is not a diet book — it's a work of investigative science journalism that changed how millions of people understand food and health.
