Why is eating so bewildering today? We are bombarded with advice on preventing weight gain and avoiding long term diseases, lost in a noisy landscape of claims, counterclaims, miracle diets and food fears. No wonder so many of us feel confused or blame ourselves for not getting it "right".

In Fed Up, Daniel Lieberman tackles this confusion head on with his trademark blend of lively storytelling and myth-busting research, to recount the fascinating tale of how we evolved to eat, and to cut a path through contemporary debates about nutrition and dieting. Lieberman shows us how our eating habits are shaped, not just by biology, but by culture, technology, and the environments we've built around ourselves. Through Lieberman's demystifying framework, we understand what we are well adapted to eat, how food affects ageing and illness, and why it's so easy to gain weight but hard to lose it.

By avoiding prescriptive rules, Lieberman offers something highly useful: a clearer understanding of how food, evolution, and modern life intersect, and provides the tools to make wiser, kinder choices about how we eat.
