Nature Wants Us to Be Fat
Book • 2022
In *Nature Wants Us to Be Fat*, Dr. Richard Johnson presents evidence on how a biological 'fat switch' is responsible for excess fat storage and many major diseases prevalent in the Western world.
This switch, used by animals as a survival mechanism, is triggered by fructose consumption and can lead to conditions such as heart disease, cancer, and dementia.
The book discusses how modern diets have permanently activated this switch, and provides recommendations for turning it off to prevent or treat obesity and reduce the risk of developing other diseases.
