Why do diets fail? Why are we all getting fatter? And why are some of us just hungrier than others?

We have never had more access to nutrition advice, and yet we have never been unhealthier. In an age of misinformation and pseudo-science, the world is getting fatter and the diet makers are getting richer. So how do we break the cycle that's killing us all?

Dr, Giles Yeo's myth-busting book draws on the very latest science, and his own genetic research at Cambridge University, to explore the evolution of human appetite and how our genes affect our ability to lose and gain weight. He tackles the history of the food we eat, debunks marketing nonsense and confronts both toxic diet advice and the advocates of "clean eating." He translates his pioneering research into an engaging must-read.

Inspiring and revelatory, Gene Eating is an urgent and essential book that empowers us all with the facts we need to make informed and healthy choices about the way we eat.
