The Natural State with Dr. Anthony Gustin

121: Gary Taubes - The Key to Losing Weight and Weight Management


Listen Later

If you've ever struggled to lose weight by cutting calories and exercising more, you're not alone.

As this week's returning guest and best-selling author Gary Taubes points out, this outdated thinking isn't going to help you lose weight or maintain a healthy weight, as you've probably already experienced.

So what will?

A high-fat keto diet.

In this episode, you'll find out why that is, the mechanisms behind why a keto diet works so well, who this diet is right for, and how specific hormones are affected by a high-fat diet.

Gary also dives into why reducing calories doesn't work, how obesity is connected to hormone issues, and the science of hunger, among other topics.

Gary Taubes is an investigative health and science journalist and researcher as well as a best-selling author of The Case Against Sugar, Why We Get Fat and What to Do About It, and Good Calories, Bad Calories.

In his latest book, The Case for Keto, Gary explains why we need to rethink weight control, how to do that, and why a low-carb, high-fat diet is the answer.

By tuning into this episode, you'll have a sneak peek into the principles in his latest book and so much more.

Tune into the episode now to see why cutting calories and exercising more isn't the key to lose weight and what is instead.
