Eat Fat, Lose Fat: The Healthy Alternative to Trans Fats Paperback - 2006

by Mary Enig; Sally Fallon

Just in time for the FDA's new mandatory trans fats labeling, the three programs in this book (with recipes) show that eating healthy fats is the answer to losing weight and achieving good health for a lifetime.

Summary

Coconut oil, red meat, and butter—these fats are traditionally considered harmful, but this powerful book, based on more than two decades of research, shows that these saturated fats are actually essential to weight loss and health. Eat Fat, Lose Fat flouts conventional wisdom by revealing that so-called healthy vegetable oils (such as corn and soybean) are in large part responsible for our national obesity and health crisis.

The three programs in this book, which features delicious coconut oil based recipes, among others, show that eating healthy fats is the answer to losing weight and achieving good health for a lifetime.

“If permanently losing weight while improving your health is a real goal, I highly recommend Eat Fat, Lose Fat.”—Dr. Joseph Mercola, bestselling author of The No-Grain Diet

“Dr. Mary Enig and Sally Fallon are two of the most important voices in the wellness revolution. Eat Fat, Lose Fat is a must read.”
—Jordan S. Rubin, author of The New York Times’ bestselling The Maker’s Diet

From the publisher

A diet and nutrition book from a new perspective, dispelling the myth that dietary fat is bad and shows that these saturated fats like coconut oil, red meat, and butter are actually essential to weight loss and health. Based on over two decades of research, Eat Fat, Lose Fat flouts conventional wisdom by revealing that vegetable oils (such as corn and soybean) are in large part responsible for our national obesity and health crisis, while healthy fats such as those found in coconut oil may actually be the secret to long-term wellness.

Filled with delicious coconut oil-based recipes, this book features three programs that help you get started eating healthy fats to lose weight and achieve good health for a lifetime. "If permanently losing weight while improving your health is a real goal, I highly recommend Eat Fat, Lose Fat."--Dr. Joseph Mercola, bestselling author of The No-Grain Diet "Dr. Mary Enig and Sally Fallon are two of the most important voices in the wellness revolution. Eat Fat, Lose Fat is a must read."--Jordan S. Rubin, New York Times bestselling author of The Maker's Diet

First line

As the French maintain their trim physiques while consuming triple cream brie, steak au poivre, and bearnaise sauce, most American adults would barely dare to drink a glass of whole-fat milk.
