Why We Get Fat

"Why We Get Fat" by Martin Hesketh offers a clear, analogy-driven explanation of how the body’s complex systems—such as metabolism, insulin function, and energy storage—interact and adapt to their environment. Moving beyond quick-fix diets, the book explores the underlying reasons behind weight gain, insulin resistance, and metabolic health, emphasizing the body's remarkable ability to respond to various signals. With accessible insights and real-world examples, it aims to deepen understanding of what the body is truly telling us about our health.
