This book is a game changer. You will never need to count calories again. - Dr Aseem Malhotra Zoe Harcombe provides an invaluable resource for understanding the mess that is today's nutrition and chronic disease research. Her ability to think critically and skeptically about the latest research makes her among the very few trustworthy sources of information and guidance on this vitally important topic. - Gary Taubes, science and health journalist, author of Good Calories, Bad Calories and The Case Against Sugar There is quite simply no writer on nutrition and dietetics anywhere in the world whose opinion I value more than that of Zoe Harcombe. Here, finally, is the weight-loss advice that is effective...If you are still searching for that elusive lifestyle prescription that will work for you, rejoice. You have finally found it. - Professor Tim Noakes, scientist and Emeritus Professor The Diet Fix is an easy-to-read explanation of why calorie counting doesn't work and what can be done to fix it.

Dr. Harcombe brings an unparalleled command of the scientific literature on nutrition, plus a sharp eye for detail and a thoroughly rigorous approach.

If I aimed to lose weight, there is no book I'd trust more than Harcombe's The Diet Fix. -- Nina Teicholz Zoe Harcombe has the rare ability to explain complex scientific issues in a language we can all understand. She will take you on a journey explaining why weight loss diets don't work, and how you can eat your way to better metabolic health.
