About this product

Product Information

'The Diet Myth is fascinating, and now I'm obsessed with microbes!' Nigella Lawson Why do most diets fail? Why does one person eat a certain meal and gain weight, while another eating the same meal loses pounds? Why, despite all the advice about what to eat, are we all still getting fatter? The answers are much more surprising - and fascinating - than we've been led to believe. The key to health and weight loss lies not in the latest fad diet, nor even in the simple mantra of 'eat less, exercise more', but in the microbes already inside us. Drawing on the latest science and his own pioneering research, Professor Tim Spector demystifies the common misconceptions about fat, calories, vitamins and nutrients. Only by understanding what makes our own personal microbes tick can we overcome the confusion of modern nutrition, and achieve a healthy gut and a healthy body.

A book that explains the real facts behind the science of food and its production
This book is written by the renowned Professor Tim Spector who is undoubtedly one of the main UK experts on gut health. It discusses in easy to understand terms which foods are beneficial and those to be avoided and explains why you need to change your approach to what you eat. It makes you rethink your views about the food that we take for granted as being supposedly good for our health according to the food manufacturing companies that want us to buy their products.

Just might change your life....
I heard about the author of this book on Radio 4's Food Programme. He came across as a witty, fascinating sort of chap, and this book confirms that impression on every page. Time after time I have read passages out loud to anyone who will listen, repeating astonishing facts. Do you have any idea how much the bacteria in your gut actually weighs? You will be blown away by this one little snippet alone. The facts are well interlarded with witty asides which make this an entertaining and informative read. I am still reading it, but already the contents of my shopping trolley has changed. I suspect that won't be the only thing.I heard about the author of this book on Radio 4's Food Programme.

Great introduction to a paradigm shift
An authoritative author gives a popular introduction to a radical and fundamental change in how we think about our bodies and even the world. Some reviewers don't appreciate that it helped introduce to the mainstream a view that would have been ridiculed just a few years ago.
