The End of Craving: Recovering the Lost Wisdom of Eating Well [Audiobook]

Acclaimed journalist and author delivers a groundbreaking, entertaining, and informative work that reveals how our dysfunctional relationship with food began - and how science is leading us back to healthier living and eating. For the last 50 years, we have been fighting a losing war on food. We have cut fat, reduced carbs, eliminated sugar, and attempted every conceivable diet only to find that 88 million American adults are prediabetic, more than a hundred million have high blood pressure, and nearly half now qualify as obese.
The harder we try to control what we eat, the more unhealthy we become. Why? Mark Schatzker has spent his career traveling the world in search of the answer. Now, in The End of Craving, he poses an even more profound question: What if the key to nutrition and good health lies not in resisting the primal urge to eat but in understanding its purpose? Combining cutting-edge science and ancient wisdom, The End of Craving is an urgent and radical investigation that will fundamentally change how we understand both food and ourselves.
