Lore of Nutrition

"In the context of junk diets, embedded scientists, corrupt - or simply ignorant - doctors and dietitians, human health and omert�s, what you believe about your personal nutrition will determine not just how you live, but also how you die." - Tim Noakes

What would you do if you discovered that the food you have been told is good for you is actually the cause of your ill health ...?

In December 2010, Professor Tim Noakes was introduced to a way of eating that was contrary to everything he had been taught and was accepted as conventional nutrition 'wisdom'. Having observed the benefits of the low-carb, high-fat lifestyle first-hand, and after thorough and intensive research, Noakes enthusiastically revealed his findings to the South African public in 2012. The backlash from his colleagues in the medical establishment was as swift as it was brutal, and culminated in a misconduct inquiry launched by the Health Professions Council of South Africa. The subsequent hearing lasted well over a year, but Noakes ultimately triumphed, being found not guilty of unprofessional conduct in April 2017.

In Lore of Nutrition, he explains the science behind the low-carb, high-fat/Banting diet, and why he champions this lifestyle despite the constant persecution and efforts to silence him. He also discusses at length what he has come to see as a medical and scientific code of silence that discourages anyone in the profession from speaking out against the current dietary guidelines. Leading food, health and medical journalist Marika Sboros, who attended every day of the HPCSA hearing, provides the fascinating backstory to the inquiry, which often reads like a spy novel.

Lore of Nutrition is an eye-opener and a must-read for anyone who cares about their health.

„In contextul dietelor de junk, al oamenilor de stiinta incorporati, medici corupti - sau pur si simplu ignoranti - si dieteticienii, sanatatea umana si omert, ceea ce credeti despre nutritia dvs. personala va determina nu doar modul in care traiti, ci si modul in care muriti.” Ce ati face daca ati descoperi ca mancarea care vi s-a spus este buna pentru dvs. este de fapt cauza sanatatii voastre ... In decembrie 2010, profesorul Tim Noakes a fost introdus intr-un mod de a manca contrar tot ce fusese invatat si acceptat ca „intelepciune” nutritionala conventionala.
