Metabolical & Fat Chance By Dr Robert Lustig 2 Books Collection Set:

Metabolical:

In the hard-hitting, ground-breaking tradition of his NY Times bestseller FAT CHANCE, which revealed the dangers of sugar, Dr Robert Lustig persuasively presents a stark exposé of how our addiction to processed foods (aided and abetted by the food industry, big ag, big pharma, institutional medicine and the government) is behind the lethal increase in major non-communicable diseases, including diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver disease, cancer and dementia. We have come to accept that these chronic diseases are simply part of the 'natural ageing process', but Dr Lustig makes the case that this is simply not true.

Fat Chance:

Sugar is toxic, addictive and everywhere. So what chance do you have of living sugar-free? With busy lives and little time left for cooking we find ourselves relying on a diet of processed food. But this is what’s responsible for our chronically expanding waistlines, soaring levels of diabetes and a catalogue of diseases.Dr Robert Lustig reveals the truth about our sugar-laden food:Why conventional low-fat weight loss advice won’t work: not every calorie is the same, and skipping lunch doesn’t mean it’s ok to eat dessert. Why too much sugar can cause serious illness even if you are not overweight.How the food industry is filling our diets with hidden sugars – and which foods you must cut out to avoid them.How governments are complacent about, and even complicit in, exacerbating our food debacle.
