为什么值得读
- 调查扎实且论述极具说服力的科学报道
- 指出糖和精制碳水比脂肪更易致人发胖
- 颠覆了大众对低脂饮食的传统认知
这部作品探讨了究竟是什么导致我们发胖。在其著作 Good Calories, Bad Calories 中，这位备受赞誉的科普作家指出，是某些特定种类的碳水化合物，而非脂肪，也绝非单纯的热量过剩，导致了如今肥胖症的流行。现在，他将这一观点传达给更广泛的非专业读者。凭借支持其论点的新证据，本书以通俗易懂的方式重新呈现了他的核心论点。他揭露了上个世纪错误的营养科学——其中危害最大的莫过于关于发胖机理的“calories-in, calories-out”模型，指出了那些被忽视的严谨科学，尤

……根本站不住脚，那就是“脂肪让人发胖”！《纽约时报》甚至还发过其他文章表达过类似观点：http://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/01/opinion/sunday/what-really...（作者是 Gary Taubes，他的书《Why We Get Fat》绝对必读。）特别是“低脂”加工食品的问题在于，为了保持风味通常会用糖来替代脂肪，但糖和其他高碳水谷物比脂肪带来的问题大得多……
…hasn't proven out at all, it's that fat makes us fat! The NY Times has even run other articles saying as much: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/01/opinion/sunday/what-really... (by Gary Taubes, whose book "Why We Get Fat" is a must-read.) The problem with "low-fat" processed food in particular is that the fat is often replaced with sugar to add taste, but sugars and other high-carb grains are more problematic than fat…
我刚读完《Why We Get Fat》[1]，非常震惊。里面的研究在我看来相当靠谱，但关于如何不发胖的建议，跟我平时听到的普遍建议大相径庭。简单来说……
I just finished reading "Why We Get Fat" [1] and was really surprised by it. The research seems quite plausible to me, but the recommendations in terms of not getting fat are not what I have heard as the common advice. The advice in short…
如果你还没读过 Taubes 的书，一定要去读读。我极力推荐《Why We Get Fat》[1]。这是一篇堪称绝妙的科学新闻力作。如果觉得啃书吃力，可以试试看他关于同一主题的演讲[2]。当我第一次接触到“我们发胖不是因为吃得太……”这个观点时
If you haven't read either of Taubes's books, please do. I highly recommend Why We Get Fat[1]. It's a spectacular piece of scientific journalism. If that's too much for you, try one of his talks on the same topic[2]. When I first encountered the idea that we do not get fat from eating too…
……动物。另一方面，以谷物为主的农业已经病入膏肓了。看看 http://lierrekeith.com/vegmyth.htm 写的很棒的导论。吃肉也是健康的，谷物可不是。去看看这些书吧：Gary Taubes 的《Good Calories Bad Calories》/《Why We Get Fat》，Robb Wolf 的《The Paleo Solution》，http://www.marksdailyapple.com/cholesterol/#axzz1wxjdQqRB 吃真正的食物。
…animals. On the other hand, grain agriculture is beyond fixing See http://lierrekeith.com/vegmyth.htm for a great intro. Meat is also healthy. Grains are not. See any of these Good Calories Bad Calories/Why We Get Fat by Gary Taubes, The Paleo Solution by Robb Wolf, http://www.marksdailyapple.com/cholesterol/#axzz1wxjdQqRB Eat real food.

我随口一想还真没有，我的大部分洞见来自观察别人的成瘾行为，以及自己在过去十年里的亲身尝试。不过，可以说让我开启这段旅程的两本书是 Garry Taube 的《Why We Get Fat》[0] 和 Tim Ferris 的《The 4 Hour Body》[1]。这两本书都用科学的方法来对待饮食（毕竟饮食是由习惯和成瘾主导的）。我想说的是，我深信……
Off the top of my head no, most of my insight came from observing addiction in others, and experimenting over the course of a decade. However, the two books which I guess started me on this journey are Why We Get Fat by Garry Taube [0] and The 4 Hour Body by Tim Ferris [1]. Both of these books take a scientific approach to diet (which is governed by habit and addiction, after all). I will say this, I am convinced…
