Have you been told you by your doctor to lose weight? Have you been diagnosed and suffer with a chronic health condition? In this book, you will discover that likely everything you've been told about nutrition and how to lose weight is wrong. Weight gain is primarily driven by hormones―in everyone―not calories. And only by understanding the effects that food and drinks have on these hormones, can we achieve lasting weight loss. This same process that allows an individual to lose weight is also what allows one's unique genetic makeup to fully express. When full genetic expression occurs, the body can become healthy again.
In this highly readable and practical book, Dr. M. Brandon Pettke explains how the U.S. got to the point of our obesity epidemic, gives clarity on conflicting nutritional advice most have heard, and explains what works clinically with his patients (and why it works). He then sets out to give the reader proven and practical steps to take. Once taken, like so many patients, the reader is finally able to lose weight. Not only for the short-term―but for good.
