Most people think "OBESITY" is caused by eating too much and moving too little. Not so! Obesity results from malnutrition ... something millions of people are living with and they don't even know it!
Author of OBESITY: Cause & Cure tells your audience why nearly everything we've been told about weight loss and obesity is wrong. Here's what you need to know:
• Obesity and overweight are a direct result of malnutrition. Since it’s a health issue rather than a weight issue, most people have no idea that they’re living with malnutrition. There’s a simple way to know!
• Why millions of “average” weight people are “blissfully” unaware they are dangerously obese and unhealthy
• Why eating less and moving more has not worked for weight loss, nor will it ever work for weight loss
• Why Big Food blames our sedentary lifestyle for obesity even though endless studies say otherwise
• Why ultra-processed food can be as addictive as cigarettes and cocaine and what it’s doing to the developing brains of our children
• What really happens when we eat a diet high in ultra-processed foods … it’s far worse than you can imagine!
• When we understand the actual cause of overweight and obesity, the cure can be surprisingly easy
… And much more
