Why We Get Fat and What To Do About It by Gary Taubes

But nothing has been quite as revealing as the Jillian Michaels' commentary on the poisoning of America called Master Your Metabolism: The 3 Diet Secrets to Naturally Balancing Your Hormones for a Hot and Healthy Body!

She pulls no punches in Master Your Metabolism.

In plain everyday language, she uncovers the horrors of eating in America and exactly what we are doing to our bodies with every bite of the processed food we eat regularly. And the drug-laden water we drink.
