| book description |

Did you know that a staggering 62% of the food in our supermarkets is ultra-processed - and that eating these foods slowly poisons us over time? In this hard-hitting exposé, New York Times bestselling author Dr Robert Lustig reveals how our addiction to ultra-processed foods - fuelled by the food industry, big agriculture, big pharma, medicine, and government - is driving a deadly surge in diseases like diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver, cancer, and dementia. We've been led to believe these chronic illnesses are just part of aging. Dr Lustig shatters this myth and shows that it's actually a consequence of what we eat. The solution? Returning to real, unprocessed food. Dr Lustig offers a practical, doable plan to restore health, boost immunity, and reclaim wellbeing - for ourselves and society. 'Metabolical lays bare the depth of the relationship between the recent and profound perversion of the human diet and its overwhelming health consequences.' - Dr David Perlmutter, author of the #1 New York Times bestsellers Grain Brain and Brain Wash
