Why We Get Fat

Please watch the CrossFit Journal article “Why We Get Fat” by Gary Taubes.  Taubes is the author of, viagra 100mg in my opinion, viagra 60mg the best book on nutrition available, try “Good Calories, Bad Calories” (GCBC).  Taubes recently wrote “Why We Get Fat“, which I have not read.  GCBC is a science book about nutrition, and he is not selling a diet; merely presenting his hypothesis on the western diet.  It identifies what he believes (and so do many CrossFitters) on the mistakes of the science world: the reliance on processed carbohydrates as a food source/reaction to cholesterol and heart disease and more.  I believe “Why We Get Fat” presents the same argument as GCBC, but does so in a less science heavy manner, much like Michael Pollan’s books: The Omnivore’s Dilemma and it’s smaller version, In Defense of Food.
