"We get fat because of an imbalance--a disequilibrium--in the hormonal regulation of fat tissue and fat metabolism," according to the new book "Good Calories Bad Calories" by Gary Taubes. "More fat is stored in the fat tissue than is mobilized and used for fuel. We become leaner when the hormonal regulation of the fat tissue reverses this imbalance."

I am waiting for a review copy of the book.

The information above is from information “About The Book” provided by the publisher located here.
