Why Calories Don't Count

In 'Why Calories Don't Count,' Dr. Giles Yeo challenges the conventional wisdom on calorie-counting and weight loss.

He explains why popular diets often succeed in the short term but ultimately fail, and how environmental factors impact body weight.

The book delves into the complex mechanisms of how the body processes food, highlighting that the calorie values on food labels do not accurately reflect the actual usable calories.

Yeo provides practical, science-based advice on how to make informed decisions about eating habits, emphasizing that a healthy diet cannot be reduced to a single parameter like calorie count.
