An honorable person who can admit a mistake and change his mind.

I found the extensive use of initials to be difficult to follow, but the information was enlightening.

Eye-opening story -Highly recommended.

Nicely organized story of a doctor put on trial for not conforming to white coat orthodoxy. He dared to disagree with the norms of the day and the medical board administered draconian measures. They should be ashamed but they have none. Amazing borage of wild accusation, all of which were proven false. This story unfolds in a very graceful way. Highly recommended.

Fantastic book

A really admirable story, backed with solid references and in-depth scientific information. I’m a big fan of Dr. Noakes and I’m thankful for his knowledge and courage for speaking the truth in a world where that is becoming increasingly challenging.

Great book on a man with integrity, facing the odds of the nutritionist

I love this fact, based book about health. I have been on the low carb diet now for about a year and that has helped my health exponentially. I have been on the diet by Dr. berg, which is called a ketogenic diet and have been amazed at how I can go without food for 72 hours and not even feel hungry. I have felt much better help on this diet. I highly recommend the low-carb diet for anyone who It’s to be healthy

Fantastic read

Dr Tim Noakes is one of the greatest mind in nutrition and understanding of the human body. Great insights and advices.

Brilliant Exposé

It is frightingly brilliant.
it is hard and sad to see the writing etched against the wall.
You have been lied to.
You are being deceived.

Scientific truth prevails. Insulin resistance solution.

Highly Inspiring and enlightening story of a courageous scientist who dared to change his mind based on the newly discovered evidence, was witch-hunted and emerged victorious! Thanks to people like Tim our world has hope! So much research is not done or hidden because of the financial interests. So many brilliant people are prosecuted for their success if financial interests are in stake. Yet Dr Noakes and Tim’s Angels exist!!! My heart is singing!

The book is chock full of science and rabbit holes to pursue.

Many of the facts, experts and references are very familiar to me thanks to my 20 years of nutrition studies. Some of the references mentioned in the book are on my “must read” list for the nutritionist I mentor.

I am going to dig through the names and studies mentioned and I am sure that it will make my health coaching even more solid.

The Truth will prevail

Until more doctors like Tim speak out about the truth-the Food and Pharmaceutical industry's influence on nutrition guidelines, we will continue to be sick.

Shocking reminder that politics and money are often arrayed against the truth

This is the story of how Tim Noakes, one of the world’s top scientists, was punished by South Africa’s medical association for daring to say what the evidence shows: Processed food harms and real food heals.

What ultimately landed Noakes in a legal trial was a single Tweet, but along the way through the twists and turns of the preliminary hearing and the appeal, it became evident that Noakes had fallen foul of the enormous vested interests of universities, professional organizations, food industries, and international pharmaceutical interests. It became imperative to teach him a lesson. Giving him a spanking in public would be a warning shot across the bows of any other dissident scientist. So, the medical regulatory body spent millions of South African Rand in an effort to silence him.

This is the story of the trial.

I won’t recount it all here, but if you have an interest in crime drama, or in politics, or if you’re wondering why everyone in your neighborhood has gotten sick and fat; this is a book for you! It doesn’t matter that you’ve never even thought of going to Cape Town in your life, the characters in this real-life story are familiar to us all, especially Prof. Noakes himself, force to choose between taking a punishment he didn’t deserve and slinking into obscurity with bank account intact, or to defend his honor and reputation regardless of cost.

Highly recommended reading (or listening to the expertly read audiobook). This book gave me hope for our collective chances.
