Why do we get fat? That is one of life’s great questions and today’s guest Gary Taubes, science writer and best selling author, is here to tell us what he has found in the research.
His latest book Why We Get Fat is an eye-opening, paradigm-shattering examination of what really makes us fat.
What if what we know about nutrition is wrong? I invite you to read his book Why We Get Fat to learn more about the problems & flaws with the research and also with our common belief of calories in and calories out.
