From the best-selling author of Why We Get Fat, a groundbreaking, eye-opening exposé that makes the convincing case that sugar is the tobacco of the new millennium: backed by powerful lobbies, entrenched in our lives, and making us very sick.
Among Americans, diabetes is more prevalent today than ever; obesity is at epidemic proportions; nearly 10% of children are thought to have nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. And sugar is at the root of these, and other, critical society-wide, health-related problems. With his signature command of both science and straight talk, Gary Taubes delves into Americans' history with sugar: its uses as a preservative, as an additive in cigarettes, the contemporary overuse of high-fructose corn syrup. He explains what research has shown about our addiction to sweets. He clarifies the arguments against sugar, corrects misconceptions about the relationship between sugar and weight loss; and provides the perspective necessary to make informed decisions about sugar as individuals and as a society.
GARY TAUBES is the author of Why We Get Fat and Good Calories, Bad Calories. He is a former staff writer for Discover and a correspondent for the journal Science. His writing has appeared in The New York Times Magazine, The Atlantic, and Esquire, and has been included in numerous “Best of” anthologies, including The Best of the Best American Science Writing (2010). He has received three Science in Society Journalism Awards from the National Association of Science Writers. He is the recipient of a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Investigator Award in Health Policy Research and a co-founder of the Nutrition Science Initiative (NuSI). He lives in Oakland, California.
非常棒的书。我妈妈是1型糖尿病患者,我是2型。这本书给了我们的很大的启发,如果早点遇到这本书,或许一切都可以重来。 以下事实你不能忽视: 吃糖使人变丑。糖类一旦附着上胶原蛋白,会使其变得脆弱易断,导致皮肤松弛下垂;吃糖使人变笨。糖分摄入过多会使人体血液流动变缓...
评分2020.2.5 前天看完,今天印象就很寡淡了,因为本身没有干货,写的也比较平淡。2-3星吧 阅读之前,期待的是一本讲述碳水化合物的实际坏处的科普读物,实际上是一本讲述臆断果糖引发各项生理机能异常的推断。作者本人立场很偏,字词也加了很多私货,但是没有文献引用,没有实验证...
评分 评分 评分说实话,看这本书的时候,我经常是一边吃着高碳水化合物,诸如蛋糕之类的,以及真正的糖——糖果,一边仔细拜读这本学术性很强的读本。一边看一边心惊,然而却放不下手里的糖,舍不掉嘴里的甜。这,应该就是所谓的糖瘾,看着平淡无奇,不似毒瘾般触目惊心,然而,其小绵羊的外...
一本糖的进化史。理论背景很丰富,写得却像是一本小说。如果你还不知道糖的危害,值得一读。如果你有相关的研究,那就随便读读吧。Sweeping theories, but only partially credible.
评分和类似的其他书一样,就是把一篇论文的内容写成了一本书。前面一半还不错。后面一半啰嗦得很。很多地方证据不够严密,不过糖多吃不好肯定是正确无比的。作者貌似是Michale Pollan的粉丝,写得没有Pollan的好。
评分总之不要吃糖就对了

评分一部糖的历史,并不给出结论,因为结论在每个人的手中。少吃,吃植物,少糖。
