In the late 1970s when the government mandated we get the fat out of our food, the food industry responded by pouring more sugar in. The result has been a perfect storm, disastrously altering our biochemistry and driving our eating habits out of our control. To help us lose weight and recover our health, Robert Lustig presents personal strategies to readjust the key hormones that regulate hunger, reward, and stress; and societal strategies to improve the health of the next generation.

It sucks to acknowledge that you are what’s keeping you from the life you want. You sacrifice what you want most for what you want in the moment. You know everything you’re supposed to do, and yet you feel stuck - limited by your past, overwhelmed by your future - in a purgatory of your own behavior.

But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this paradigm-shifting book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible. Writing with clear, persuasive language, he explains why conventional treatments that rely on insulin or other blood-glucose-lowering drugs can actually exacerbate the problem, leading to significant weight gain and even heart disease.

The keto craze is just getting warmed up. The ketogenic diet kick-starts your body's metabolism so it burns fat, instead of sugar, as its primary fuel. But most ketogenic plans are meat- and dairy-heavy, creating a host of other problems, especially for those who prefer plants at the center of the plate. Dr. Will Cole comes to the rescue with Ketotarian, which has all the fat-burning benefits without the antibiotics and hormones that are packed into most keto diets.

Story
No one wants to overeat. And certainly no one wants to overeat for years, become overweight, and end up with a high risk of diabetes or heart disease - yet two thirds of Americans do precisely that. Even though we know better, we often eat too much. Why does our behavior betray our own intentions to be lean and healthy? The problem, argues obesity and neuroscience researcher Stephan J. Guyenet, is not necessarily a lack of willpower or an incorrect understanding of what to eat. Rather, our appetites and food choices are led astray by ancient, instinctive brain circuits.

Manage carbohydrate and not caloric intake!

Publisher's Summary
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.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Great book with one horrible and one good narrator
What made the experience of listening to Always Hungry? the most enjoyable?
The book is filled with new insights to nutrition, and how the food we choose affects our body. However, the testimonials that seem to take up about 50% of the book are excessive, annoying, and endless.
What didn’t you like about David Ludwig’s performance?
David Ludwig's narration was fine. It was nice to hear the author in his own voice. Even though he's not a professional, he did a good job.
The OTHER narrator, though, the one who reads the testimonials, is like fingernails on a chalkboard. She over-emotes every word, and reads every quote in the exact same infomercial voice. I'd pay extra for a version without any of her interruptions.
Any additional comments?
Please, please, please release a version without the testimonials.

Where does Always Hungry? rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Excellent book, love the science and a plan that addresses the issues I have battled for years. I feel so much better following this plan.
What other book might you compare Always Hungry? to and why?
Bulletproof, easier to follow that Bulletproof.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, I loved following his research and plan for setting up kitchen, and plans for tracking.

Yes, I was always hungry and now I know why!
It's one thing for a doctor researching the topic of carbs, fat and protein to know his stuff, but it's another to have it relayed to the lay person in an interesting and understandable way. Always Hungry is extremely approachable. I have always wondered how to sift through the plethora of diet philosophies and make a decision on which is "right"for me. Well, after listening to this book I can see why there is so much confusion and why our nation is full of overweight people who for the large part (no pun intended), fail at dieting attempts. The amount of false information circulating about fats and carbohydrates is truly mind boggling and now, after reading Dr. Ludwig's book, I have a very clear idea on where I have gone wrong and how to correct it. I think this is a fantastic book and I find the author's voice to be friendly, caring and knowledgable. I cannot wait to reset my fat cells and increase my metabolism and feel better than ever. I feel confident that after applying the concepts in this book I will have success. For the first time ever, I understand how to look at food and forecast what effects it will have on my body.

Metabolism For Beginners
A somewhat lame variation on Haley Pomeroy's Fast Metabolism Diet. The endless "My Always Hungry Story" testimonials were far more distracting than encouraging. I have already lost over 15% of my start weight and kept it off, so this beginner's guide to human metabolism is going back. Not for me, perhaps useful to someone new to the topic.

Redundant narrative
The narrative in this book was very redundant (it could be condensed into 1 chapter) and the quotes from previous patients were for the most part unnecessary. The weight loss on many patients was not impressive and they even said they never did a control group in the study.
We'll see if the supplemental information is worth it.

Pretty typical fad diet book
Would you try another book from David Ludwig and/or David Ludwig?
Probably not.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind
How did the narrator detract from the book?
The primary narrator was fine; but the continual interruptions for "My Always Hungry Story" were obnoxious.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment. I had expected a book about nutrition science, and instead got a pretty standard fad diet book.

I haven't tried the recipes or diet yet, but wanted to let people know the recipes ARE included. I do like that Dr. Ludwig includes descriptions of so many clinical trials.
