THE FOOD MYTH: What Science Really Says About the Diets That Promise to Heal YouEvery day millions of people are sold the same dream: that the right diet can cure disease reverse aging and unlock the body they've always wanted. Keto. Paleo. Vegan. Carnivore. Intermittent fasting. The Mediterranean diet. Each claims to be the answer. But what does the actual science say?In this meticulously researched yet highly readable investigation physician-researcher Moustafa Younis examines the evidence behind the world's most popular dietary claims - not through opinion or ideology but through the lens of evidence-based medicine. Drawing on hundreds of peer-reviewed studies systematic reviews and meta-analyses from the world's most respected medical journals THE FOOD MYTH separates nutrition mythology from scientific reality.Inside this book you'll discover: Why the war on saturated fat was built on flawed science - and what 600 000 people in 72 studies reveal about fat and heart disease The truth about intermittent fasting: what the 2022 New England Journal of Medicine study actually found and why the benefits may have nothing to do with "magic" Why honey is still 80% sugar why the olive oil industry is rife with billion-dollar fraud and why your expensive probiotic may be passing through your body like a tourist What the world's Blue Zones really eat - and why the answer isn't what wellness influencers claim How to read nutrition headlines with the skeptical eye of a scientist and why "correlation" is not "causation"Written in the engaging narrative style of bestselling science writers like Tim Spector and Siddhartha Mukherjee THE FOOD MYTH is rigorous enough for physicians and accessible enough for anyone who has ever stood in a grocery store aisle wondering what to believe.This is not a diet book. This is a book about how to think about diets.
