All for a single tweet giving his opinion on nutrition. Noakes and investigative journalist Marika Sboros have added up-to-date, robust scientific evidence in support of his views that launched the case against him.

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.

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 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.

A treatise on what's wrong with modern medicine

Professor Noakes will go down in history as a hero. What an ordeal. Every physician or dietitian who has ever parroted the low-fat, low-calorie, high-carbohydrate message to patients in the belief it's best for health should be required to read this book, or at least watch the videos of testimony provided at this trial (which can be found online). It's like a master class on human metabolism.

This book is not an easy read; it's dense, but for good reason. The narrators don't always get the pronunciations right; forr example, the male narrator mispronounced "remuneration" ("mun-" from the Latin word for money) as "renumeration" several times. But the quality of narration otherwise was very good.

More proof for why we should all be skeptical

When institutions have something to lose they respond by protecting themselves and truth takes a backseat. Then you get ridiculous behavior like what happened to Noakes. Truth won out in the end, as it always eventually does. Good book, good story.

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.
