The ability to use body fat for energy is essential to health -- but over decades of practice, family physician Catherine Shanahan, M.D., observed that many of her patients could not burn their body fat between meals, trapping them in a downward spiral of hunger, fatigue, and weight gain. In this book, Dr. Shanahan shows us how industrially produced vegetable oils accumulate in our body fat and disrupt our bodýђةs energy-producing systems, driving food addictions that hijack our moods and habits while making it nearly impossible to control our weight. To reclaim our health, we need to detoxify our body fat and help repair our zfatburny capabilities. With this book, Dr. Shanahan shows how regaining your fatburn is the key to effortless weight loss and a new, elevated life, paving the way to abundant energy and long-term health and happiness
