What Readers Say

"I can honestly say that I learned more from this one book about the 'lipid hypotheses'—dietary fat, body fat, cholesterol, trans fats and their health implications—than I have from all my other texts combined."

"Leas not only clearly explains the biology related to fat and its metabolism, but exposes the shaky 'science' that has led to Americans' unreasonable fear and loathing of fat—both in our diet and in our bodies."

"This is one of the most intriguing books you'll ever read in your entire life."

"Leas' book makes it easy for anyone to have at least a fundamental grasp of the basics of fatty acid metabolism. She has condensed the works of over 20 reputable researchers and science writers into one book. When you finish her book, you will understand each of the various types of fatty acids in the diet and the unique and essential roles they play in managing our health."

"I keep sending copies of your amazing book to my friends. Your research findings are long overdue for being presented to the world."

"Thanks for compiling all the information in this wonderful book!""
