Studies suggest that once we lose considerable weight, we are getting ourselves into a state that our body perceives as sickness, and the fight against intense food cravings and the need for very intense regular exercise will continue at a level far beyond that of a lean individual who has never been obese. Although much remains unknown about body weight regulation, I believe, unlike Kolata, that there is hope that safe and potent ways to prevent and treat morbid obesity will soon emerge from ongoing research.

But I agree that nobody battling obesity will achieve a Hollywood star physique by following the next popular diet craze. It must be possible. Just ask Mike Huckabee.

The very foundations of most dieting is fundamentally flawed, and so are the reasons we are getting fat in the first place!

This book completely re-examines our understanding of why we get fat and what we can do about it. We look at human history, biology, psychology, medical research, how our food has changed, and the food industry itself.

But knowing why we get fat is only part of the story; we also need to know:What to eat and what not to eat. How to deal with our old inappropriate food habits. And,How to survive the modern food environment that is making most people overweight in the first place and keeping them fat for life.

More than references to the technical medical literature and a Suggested Reading List enable more detailed investigation as required. An extensive Index allows readers to quickly locate topics as diverse as diabetes to burgers. One of the foremost researchers in human metabolism reveals surprising new science behind food and exercise. We burn 2, calories a day. And if we exercise and cut carbs, we'll lose more weight.

In this paradigm-shifting book, Herman Pontzer reveals for the first time how human metabolism really works so that we can finally manage our weight and improve our health. Pontzer's groundbreaking studies with hunter-gatherer tribes show how exercise doesn't increase our metabolism. Instead, we burn calories within a very narrow range: nearly 3, calories per day, no matter our activity level.

This was a brilliant evolutionary strategy to survive in times of famine. Now it seems to doom us to obesity. The good news is we can lose weight, but we need to cut calories. Refuting such weight-loss hype as paleo, keto, anti-gluten, anti-grain, and even vegan, Pontzer discusses how all diets succeed or fail: For shedding pounds, a calorie is a calorie.

At the same time, we must exercise to keep our body systems and signals functioning optimally, even if it won't make us thinner. Hunter-gatherers like the Hadza move about five hours a day and remain remarkably healthy into old age.

But elite athletes can push the body too far, burning calories faster than their bodies can take them in. It may be that the most spectacular athletic feats are the result not just of great training, but of an astonishingly efficient digestive system. Revealing, irreverent, and always entertaining, Pontzer has written a book that will change how you eat, move, and live. Skip to content. Rethinking Thin. Rethinking Thin Book Review:.
