Metabolical

Archival Summary & Scope

New York Times bestselling author and pediatric neuroendocrinologist Dr. Robert Lustig identifies eight core pathologies driving chronic disease, arguing that processed food has devastated global health, economy, and environment for fifty years. Challenging our flawed healthcare paradigm, Lustig exposes its failures under the influence of Big Food, Big Pharma, and Big Government. He reveals that chronic diseases are "foodable," not "druggable," explaining how processed food is both toxic and addictive. Lustig then proposes an urgent manifesto: a revolutionary dietary strategy focused on protecting the liver and feeding the gut. This book offers a clear path to reverse chronic disease, prevent healthcare bankruptcy, and heal the planet.
