In Metabolical, Dr Robert Lustig follows the investigative, data-driven approach readers loved in his NY Times bestseller Fat Chance. He argues that our dependence on processed foods — enabled by food industry marketing, big agriculture, pharmaceuticals, institutional medicine and policy failures — is the root cause behind the dramatic rise in non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver disease, cancer and dementia. Metabolical reframes ageing-related illness as preventable metabolic dysfunction rather than inevitable decline, giving readers a science-backed roadmap to better health.
Fat Chance delivers a clear, convincing case that sugar is toxic, addictive and pervasive in modern diets. Dr Lustig explains why conventional low-fat advice fails, why calories aren’t all equal, and how excess sugar can cause serious illness even when body weight appears normal. The book calls out hidden sugars in processed foods, offers practical lists of foods to avoid, and examines how government and industry practices contribute to the public health crisis.
Both books are written in an accessible, conversational style that balances rigorous science with practical advice — perfect for busy families who want to make informed food choices without getting lost in jargon. While Metabolical expands the scope to systems and policy, Fat Chance arms readers with the urgent, actionable facts about sugar and processed foods.
This two-book collection is more than a reading set; it’s a toolkit for change. Whether you’re shopping for a parent, a teacher, a friend battling metabolic issues, or yourself, Metabolical & Fat Chance offers clarity, authority, and a path toward healthier habits. Add this paperback collection to your home library or classroom — a timely, impactful gift and a lasting resource for anyone serious about nutrition and long-term wellness.
