Did you know that a staggering 62% of the food in our supermarkets is ultra-processed - and that eating these foods slowly poisons us over time?

In this hard-hitting exposé, New York Times bestselling author Dr Robert Lustig reveals how our addiction to ultra-processed foods - fuelled by the food industry, big agriculture, big pharma, medicine, and government - is driving a deadly surge in diseases like diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver, cancer, and dementia.

We've been led to believe these chronic illnesses are just part of aging. Dr Lustig shatters this myth and shows that it's actually a consequence of what we eat.

The solution? Returning to real, unprocessed food. Dr Lustig offers a practical, doable plan to restore health, boost immunity, and reclaim wellbeing - for ourselves and society.

'Metabolical lays bare the depth of the relationship between the recent and profound perversion of the human diet and its overwhelming health consequences.' - Dr David Perlmutter, author of the #1 New York Times bestsellers Grain Brain and Brain Wash©2021 Robert H.

This book is life changing. When I saw Dr Robert Lustig in a you tube program I realised for the first time in my 60 years why I had gained so much weight. This book sets out simply the way the food industry has changed during my life time and that of my children all born in the 1980’s. I can now move forward with a plan adopting real change for the better for me, my husband, children and grandchildren. This is one of those life changing books that everyone needs to read and I can not recommend it enough.

Real food is important for everybody who wants to live healthy, and sadly enough you don't know how critical your health is for your well being until you get healthproblems. Prevent that or restore your health by eating real food.

Everybody should know how important real food is

I have the hard copy book, but never been able to read on the tube as it was almost always packed on my way to work. Getting it in audio instead was a great idea, and I loved how the person presenting it had similar voice to Robert. Insightful and revolutional information from this book lets us see how corrupt is big food and big pharma, and they go so far to fool ordinary people to get more money. Two years now I am limiting my process food and sugar intake and it makes such a huge difference! I hope Robert’s work will be able to reach as many people as possible, and transform our broken food system and knowledge around health and nutrition.

I love the work of Dr Robert Lustig. The quality of this audio was brilliant!

Dr. Lustig has done a phenomenal job of not only explaining how we got to the state of poison being peddled as 'food' but what we need to do going forward. He includes the entire ecosystem that has led to and supports a system of processed rubbish passing as food and identifies the epidemic of sickness as a result, supported by studies and then continues to drive the essential point.
