Wired to eat

Book • 2017

In 'Wired to Eat', Robb Wolf explains how our genetics are working against us in the modern world of highly palatable foods.

The book delves into the science behind appetite regulation, the impact of sleep, stress, and community on health, and introduces the concept of personalized nutrition.

It includes a 30-Day Reset program to normalize appetite regulation and a 7-Day Carb Test to determine individual carbohydrate tolerance.

The book also discusses ketogenic diets and intermittent fasting as potential tools for health improvement.

Wolf emphasizes that each person's metabolism and nutritional needs are distinct, advocating for a personalized approach to dieting rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.
