Read by the author, Michael Greger.
'How Not to Diet is for those who want the facts, not your typical fantasy, filler or fluff.' - Telegraph
Put an end to dieting and replace weight loss struggles with this easy approach to a healthy, plant-based lifestyle, from the bestselling author of How Not to Die.
Every month seems to bring a trendy new diet or weight-loss fad – but they aren't making us happier or healthier as obesity rates continue to rise alongside a number of diseases and health problems. It’s time for a different approach.
How Not to Diet is a treasure trove of buried data and cutting-edge dietary research that Dr Michael Greger has translated into accessible, actionable advice with exciting tools and tricks that will help you to eliminate unwanted body fat – for good.
Dr Greger, renowned nutrition expert and founder of NutritionFacts.org, explores the many causes of obesity – from our genes to the portions on our plate to other environmental factors – and the many consequences, from diabetes to cancer to mental health issues. From there, Dr Greger breaks down a variety of approaches to weight loss, honing in on the optimal criteria that enable success, including: a diet high in fibre and water, a diet low in fat, salt, and sugar, and diet full of anti-inflammatory foods.
How Not to Diet goes beyond food to identify twenty-one weight loss accelerators available to us in our body’s systems, incorporating the latest discoveries in cutting-edge areas like chronobiology to reveal the factors that maximize our natural fat-burning capabilities. This is the ultimate weight-loss guide, taking a timeless, proactive approach that can stand up to any new trend.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Only problem I have is implementing a lot of the recommendations due to IBS, like many IBS sufferers I often feel better with more refined versions of foods (e.g. white rice instead of brown, instant oats instead of steel cut oats, cooked veg instead of salads, also cruciferous veg can be a digestive nightmare, as can flax seeds). I also have a hard time going vegan, there are times when in a flare up and the only foods I can eat are chicken soup and white rice. Sadly as a result I can't really go full whole food, plant based, high veg, high fibre and "put it to the test" as he says :D I learned a lot of interesting science though and implement what I can. I hope he'll write a book about IBS someday!
Very detailed, not great for IBS sufferers though
