Synopses

Fat Chance: The Hidden Truth About Sugar, Obesity and Disease

Dr Robert Lustig argues that sugar is widespread in everyday food and challenges conventional low-fat weight-loss advice, stating that not every calorie is the same. He discusses how high sugar intake may contribute to serious illness even without being overweight, and describes the presence of hidden sugars in many foods. The book also addresses the role of the food industry and governments in shaping today’s diet.

The Hairy Bikers Eat to Beat Type 2 Diabetes

The Hairy Bikers return with 80 of their Dieter recipes, brought together from previously published material. As the first paperback in a new healthy eating series, it presents lower-calorie versions of traditional classics and family favourites. Alongside recipes, the book includes information and the authors’ personal stories about their battles with type 2 diabetes, aimed at readers taking action after diagnosis or after years of managing the condition.
