In the late 1970s when the government mandated we get the fat out of our food, the food industry responded by pouring moresugar in. The result has been a perfect storm, disastrously altering our biochemistry and driving our eating habits out of our control. To help uslose weightand recover our health, Lustig presents personal strategies to readjust the key hormones that regulate hunger, reward, and stress; and societal strategies to improve the health of the next generation.
