You'll discover the seven myths about weight gain:
- Myth 1: Eat less + exercise more = weight loss
- Myth 2: You can control weight by counting calories
- Myth 3: Eating fat makes you fat
- Myth 4: Eating no-carb or low-carb will make you thin
- Myth 5: Skipping meals helps you lose weight
- Myth 6: The French paradox meets the American paradox
- Myth 7: Food politics: Government and industry are the guardians of our health
In Ultrametabolism: The Simple Plan for Automatic Weight Loss, Dr. Mark Hyman presents a new science of weight loss that will make other diet books obsolete. It's based on a groundbreaking concept called nutrigenomics—the science of how food “talks” to our genes.
Dr. Hyman's practice is affiliated with Harvard Medical School's Brigham and Women's Hospital where he has taught fellows in Complementary and Integrative Medicine, and conducted grand rounds at Harvard Medical School on nutrition and heart disease and was a featured speaker at its Women's Health Forum. He is on the Faculty of the Institute for Functional Medicine; a non-profit ACCME accredited organization teaching nutritional, genomic and functional medicine to physicians.
He has testified for the White House Commission on Complementary and Alternative Medicine and has consulted with the Surgeon General, Richard Carmona, on his diabetes prevention initiative. He is a nationally recognized author, speaker and authority on prevention and wellness.
He is quoted frequently in print media, television and radio.
