DISCLOSURE: I am NOT a doctor or healthcare professional. I am; however, under the care of a doctor who recommended I read the book, “Why We Get Fat and What to do About it” and heed its advice. My doctor also eats this way, as does his family. I believe it is important to be under the care of a physician when you make any changes that will affect your health, especially if you are on any medications. That said, please seek a professional who understands and agrees with this way of eating if you want to see significant, natural, and positive advances in your health.

I’ve been asked countless times to explain what I’m eating to lose weight so quickly and effortlessly. People want to know how my blood pressure and cholesterol have gone down when I’m eating butter, bacon, eggs, and mayonnaise, but not working out. My short answer has been: “Read the book, “Why We Get Fat and What to do About it” by Gary Taubes.”
