Praise and reviews for Nora Gedgaudas and her book, Primal Fat Burner
This unique book provides a much-needed big picture. It is one that addresses the state of humankind, the errant direction we have all taken, the dark influence of global corporations and, most importantly, how we can regain our power and embrace a truly healthy, sustainable future. Nora makes the case for setting aside our differences to focus on what we all share: a common biological design, and a need for a food economy that restores local, natural systems. In this way, we can take back what was once ours, and what is fundamentally our primal birthright.
Primal Fat Burner is an amazing follow up to Primal Body Primal Mind. Nora does what most writers won’t do which is to truly answer the questions of those that want to know the answers. After originally reading PBPM I had loads of questions. Primal Fat Burner answers those questions. This book is full of incredible recipes, nutritional nuggets and an approach to Ketogenic dieting that will dispel the notion that Fat is bad. Get ready to clear your pantry of poison and find your paleo path in Primal Fat Burner today!
Why read Nora’s Primal Fat Burner? Not just because it’s an honest, original and comprehensive revelation of the reasons why fats, and healthy animal fats in particular, are required for optimal health today (which they are), but they are in fact responsible for our becoming human. Unlike so many others who hold back, Nora explains the scientific and historical truth clearly so you can truly understand why you’d want to give yourself the gift of a Primal Fat Burning life – read her book, use it wisely, and you’ll never regret it.
If you want to take you brain and your health with you for the rest of your life read this book and follow the high fat diet Nora has developed! This book separates fad from fact, it is loaded with the real science, and provides a pathway to healing your body, your mind, your mood, and for relieving chronic pain. There is no better guide than Nora in this journey.
Nora Gedgaudas successfully navigates the dietary minefield in her new book, Primal Fat Burner. Whether you are following a strict ketogenic diet, cycle in and out, or simply want to learn more about incorporating healthy foods and healthy fat in your diet – much like our ancestors – look no further.
Nora Gedgaudas presents compelling information on the health benefits of dietary fat from an evolutionary perspective. She does an excellent job in debunking the myth that high fat low carbohydrate diets are unhealthy, and that low-fat high carbohydrate diets are healthy. She provides valuable resources for those interested in transitioning from unhealthy high-carbohydrate diets to healthy fat-based diets.
Nora Gedgaudas deftly describes the link between what we eat and what we become. Millions of years of human evolution made us omnivores with well-muscled bodies and extraordinary minds that could not have developed without a diet rich in fat, including saturated fat! Read this book and you’ll understand why much maligned animal fat is so important to your health and why it is critical that it come from animals grazing on healthy land (and not confined to feedlots). I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
Ready to live long, lustily, wisely and well? Then it’s time to let Nora Gedgaudas teach you the “fats of life”.
In terms of nutritional knowledge, Ms. Gedgaudas is about a decade ahead of 99% of U.S. physicians, taught virtually zilch about healthful eating in medical school. Counterintuitive as it sounds, increasing your fat intake will promote weight loss. The real nutritonal villain is sugar (a fact kept hidden from us by the sugar industry!). The low carb-high fat diet described in ‘Primal Fat Burner’ protects people from obesity and heart disease. When it comes to making the overweight and chronically ill American healthy again, ‘Primal Fat Burner’ is destined to be a real game changer.
Nora Gedgaudas was one of the early adopters of the low carbohydrate, high-fat science and diet. She not only understands the science very well, she is able to simply and accurately explain it to the lay reader and health professional alike. From some fine science to its application, this book has much to offer for someone just starting out and wanting to dip their toes in the low-carb water or for those already better versed in the science. It is an entertaining and informative read, and I highly recommend it.
