The pioneering physician scientist behind the New York Times bestseller
Eat to Beat Disease reveals the science of eating your way to healthy
weight loss.
In his first groundbreaking book, Dr. William Li explored the world of food
as medicine. By eating foods that you already enjoy, like tomatoes,
blueberries, sourdough bread, and dark chocolate your body activates its
five health defense systems to fight cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular,
neurodegenerative autoimmune diseases, and other debilitating conditions.
Now in Eat to Beat Your Diet, Dr. Li introduces the surprising new science
of weight loss, revealing healthy body fat can help you lose weight; your
metabolism at 60 can be the same as when you were 20; yo-yo dieting can
be good for your health; 8-hour fasting windows can be as effective as
12-hour fasting windows; and losing just a little bit of weight can have big
impacts on your health. Eat to Beat Your Diet shows readers how adding
the right foods to your diet can heal your metabolism, reduce unhealthy
body fat, and result in the kind of weight loss that can increase your
lifespan and help you thrive.
