Always Hungry?

Conquer Cravings, Retrain Your Fat Cells, and Lose Weight Permanently

De: David Ludwig MD PhD

Narrado por: David Ludwig

Leading Harvard Medical School expert and "obesity warrior" (Time magazine) rewrites the rules on weight loss, diet, and health.

Forget everything you've been taught about dieting. In Always Hungry?, renowned endocrinologist Dr. David Ludwig explains why traditional diets don't work and presents a radical new plan to help you lose weight without hunger, improve your health, and feel great.

For over two decades, Dr. Ludwig has been at the forefront of research into weight control. His groundbreaking studies show that overeating doesn't make you fat; the process of getting fat makes you overeat. That's because fat cells play a key role in determining how much weight you gain or lose. Low-fat diets work against you by triggering fat cells to hoard more calories for themselves, leaving too few for the rest of the body. This "hungry fat" sets off a dangerous chain reaction that leaves you feeling ravenous as your metabolism slows down. Cutting calories only makes the situation worse - creating a battle between mind and metabolism that we're destined to lose. You gain more weight even as you struggle to eat less food.

Always Hungry? turns dieting on its head with a three-phase program that ignores calories and targets fat cells directly. The recipes and meal plan include luscious high-fat foods (like nuts and nut butters, full-fat dairy, avocados, and dark chocolate), savory proteins, and natural carbohydrates. The result? Fat cells release their excess calories, and you lose weight - and inches - without battling cravings and constant hunger. This is dieting without deprivation.

Forget calories. Forget cravings. Forget dieting. Always hungry? reveals a liberating new way to tame hunger and lose weight...for good.

Diets Missing Fat

What did you like best about this story?

I learned that fat in my diet is healthy and important. It's really carbohydrates that signal insulin to fat cells, to" store," instead of "use" its fat reserves. Also, be conscious when choosing to include highly processed carbohydrates. Some people are sensitive to them. Can cause inflammation all over the body from the brain fog to the swollen joints, autoimmune issues, and more. They can interfere with sleep, energy, or trigger cravings. Some people are hyper sensitive to Carbs and and should not add them back to their diet. I like Dr Ludwig's personal approach.

What does David Ludwig bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Doctor Ludwig brings his own calm voice with practical guidance in practical steps.There is an add'l woman narrator reading written testimonials from Dr Ludwig's patients interspersed in the book that are reassuring.

What did you learn from Always Hungry? that you would use in your daily life?

I now know the proper proportion of Fat, Protein and Carbohydrates in my meals for good health. Also to pay attention to not just the scale, but sleep, energy level, hunger level. Guidelines for training wheels, then transitioning to putting together my own healthy meals with the foods we enjoy. I love some of the recipes I've tried, and haven't even tried them all yet. Great ideas for make ahead sauces, dips and dressings to get the needed fat in a meal, and what delicious flavor boosts they give. Great tips for quick to put together meals. He comments that he used a dietician and a culinary chef to put together his meal combinations. I can believe that. Delicious.

Any additional comments?

The information is Important, refreshing, and feels balanced. I am free from counting calories.

Great stuff

Nice to know that the high fat and high protein people are right and to get a template to follow for a short period of time to set the stage for a whole new way of eating. I look forward to implementing this methodology.

Recipes?

I liked the concepts presented, but no access to recipes is disappointing. Do I have to buy a paper copy to get them?

Awesome

I found this book after listening to an interview with the author on a podcast. I was impressed. This gives you a really solid base for good nutrition. I definitely recommend this one.

Amazing!

What an amazing science-backed guide to eating!!!! A must-read for everyone living in this processed food, fad-diet ridden world!
