From the true nature of carbs to the intricate workings of inflammation, this brilliant book from the NHS doctor and TikTok star Dr Idrees Mughal serves up health facts in fabulously digestible and empowering form.
Are carbs the enemy? Am I getting enough protein? Should I worry about inflammation? Do calories count? And do any diets really work?
We are constantly bombarded with advice on how to live a ‘healthier’ life. From the benefits of intermittent fasting and the keto diet, to the growth of veganism and the dangers of inflammation, we are surrounded by poor-quality, dubiously sourced information on how we can live and feel better. But where should we turn to for advice we can trust?
Dr Idrees Mughal (Dr Idz), an NHS doctor with a masters in nutritional research and a board certification in lifestyle medicine, has made it his mission to educate, inspire and empower the public when it comes to diet and lifestyle. His signature videos have attracted millions of followers online, and now he’s collected this wealth of information in his first book, Saturated Facts – your science-backed guide to living better.
Whether you’re looking to lose weight, sleep better, avoid disease or just have more energy as you go about your day, Saturated Facts is the comprehensive guide you need to make smarter decisions about your health.
