DESCRIPTION:
The World Turned Upside Down may play the same role in the second low carb revolution. The book describes Gary Taubes s Good Calories, Bad Calories as analogous to Thomas Paine s Common Sense in the American Revolution. He seemed fairly eccentric but had many good ideas and, of course, if anybody had listened to him we wouldn t still be burdened with the energy balance story. --Nina Teicholz: author of the best-selling The Big Fat SurpriseNutrition is really applied biochemistry, and who better than a professor of biochemistry to explain it. The World Turned Upside Down&n
RICHARD DAVID FEINMAN is Professor of Cell Biology at the State University of New York Downstate Medical Center in Brooklyn, New York where he has been a pioneer in incorporating nutrition into the biochemistry curriculum A graduate of the University of Rochester and the University of Oregon (PhD), Dr. Feinman is the founder and former co-Editor- In-
The book tells the story of the first low-carbohydrate revolution, twelve years ago, how it started, what killed it and why another one is happening. On your plate or in your blood? Finally, The World Turned Upside Down gives you information and the tools to decipher the nutritional medical literature on your own. It explains how type 2 diabetes can be virtually cured for many people by a reduction in dietary carbohydrate and why you need to know about it even if you don t have diabetes. Scientifically accurate and entertaining, this book paints a broad picture of the nutrition world: the beauty of the underlying biochemistry and the embarrassing failure of the medical establishment, the practical value in low-carbohydrate diets and what s wrong with the constant reports that normal foods represent a threat rather than a source of pleasure. At the same-time, the book is unsparing in criticism of the nutritional establishment, an establishment which it seems must inevitably be overthrown. Irreverent and witty, this book boils down all the facts from different angles to a simple message on what to eat and why.. Richard David Feinman, Professor of Cell Biology at SUNY Downstate Medical Center, is one of the lea
The best explanation for the benefits of carbohydrate restriction I've been eating a very low carb, high fat diet (LCHF) for well over seven years with nothing but great results and complete satisfaction. I've read the low carb books of Gary Taubes; Drs. Eric Westman, Stephen Phinney, and Jeff Volek; Nina Teicholz; Dr. Richard Bernstein; Dr. Andreas Eenfeldt ( dietdoctor.com ); the Drs. Eades and others. I'm interested in thi. J. Baker said TRUTH IN SCIENCE DEFEATS THE LOW FAT ARMY. One look at the whimsical cover illustration makes it clear that this is going to be a fun read, not a dry discourse on biochemistry. Basically, "The World Turned Upside Down," is the story of how we obtain energy from our environment, told by a talented teacher who explains it so even those of us who don't know much chemistry, "can see the beauty in the life m. "At last, the science behind weight loss and diet!" according to Mike Brown. This may well be the most important diet book ever written. This is not written as a diet book but it is. It will tell you whylow carb is the secret to weight loss. Like most people with a weight problem I have tried dozens of diets. Then a few years agoI came upon a copy of the old Atkins diet. For the first time I had a diet that worked. I lost weight and I k
