Is Your Diet Feeding or Defeating Your Metabolism?

The pioneering physician-scientist behind the New York Times bestseller Eat to Beat Disease reveals the science of eating your way to a healthy metabolism.

In his first groundbreaking book, Dr. William Li explored the world of food as medicine. By eating foods 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 metabolism and 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 actually benefit 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.
