About this listen
This is NOT your typical weight loss book.
Weight loss books have historically been rife with misinformation. A conveyor belt of diet books pretending to have the latest revolutionary weight loss "hacks", trying to grab your attention with whatever weight loss diet is trending. What is the best diet for you? Is it keto, intermittent fasting, the 5:2 diet or one of the many rapid weight loss plans promising that you can all lose an astronomical amount of weight in a short space of time?
Do you know what doesn't make sense? Telling everyone to follow the same weight loss diet, period. Diets are not one size fits all. We are all different, and a diet plan that your friend is successful with might be a diet plan that doesn’t work for you. We are all individuals with different biology, preferences, and circumstances.
Here are some cold, hard facts:
- It is estimated that half of all adults are attempting to lose weight at least once per year.
- Losing fat is the most sought-after goal in the fitness industry.
- Despite the prevalence of diet attempts, global body weights have been trending upward for the last 50 years.
- Most people who start a weight loss diet only get short-term results and are not successful at keeping that weight off in the long run.
- Many of you feel confused by the huge amount of conflicting weight loss information and feel fed up with hopping from one diet to the next, constantly losing and regaining the same amount of weight.
Rather than pretending to have the universal solution for everyone, Everything Fat Loss comprehensively explains and summarizes what the research actually says about every major fat loss topic to help you formulate a plan that works for you.
No gimmicks. No overhyped marketing. No cookie-cutter diet plans. No false promises.
This is the ultimate scientific resource on fat loss, written to cut through the BS.
It is literally, everything you need to know about fat loss, compiled into one handy resource.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Story
Fitness coach Ben Carpenter spent his entire adult life working in the fitness industry, researching the real science and studies behind fat loss, and answering questions with simplified, unbiased answers. Ben's point is this: The best weight loss diet doesn't exist. From keto to intermittent fasting, no diet is superior. They all work in the short term, but are rarely sustainable for the long term. The better solution is to maintain stronger, positive motivators that make us want to stay healthy; the easiest way to do this is through simple, effective habits.

In Live Nourished, Shana Spence starts by exposing diet culture for what it is: a patriarchal, capitalist mindset that is engrained in countless aspects of our society, and that keeps us from living healthily and joyfully. It’s a systemic belief that equates fitness, health, and thinness with worth and assigns food a moral value. And it’s a belief that pervades our society.

No one wants to overeat. And certainly no one wants to overeat for years, become overweight, and end up with a high risk of diabetes or heart disease--yet two thirds of Americans do precisely that. Even though we know better, we often eat too much. Why does our behavior betray our own intentions to be lean and healthy? The problem, argues obesity and neuroscience researcher Stephan J. Guyenet, is not necessarily a lack of willpower or an incorrect understanding of what to eat.

Your body is incredible, but it’s also out to destroy you. Your brain is like an early computer operating system, riddled with bad code, slow to load, and more likely to watch cat memes than go to sleep. You’d be a mess without your skeleton, but it can be a bony cage if you’re tortured by backaches, niggling neck pain, and knee joints that crumble under pressure. And your nose is a design disaster, getting blocked, springing leaks, and growing random tufts of hair.

In How to Release Anxiety, Gabby Bernstein offers simple, actionable steps for feeling better, living with more ease, and showing up for those around us. Gabby’s unusual advice: Rather than manage your anxiety, what if you befriended it? Gabby posits that what we befriend, we can ultimately be at ease with. So she invites us to get curious.

If you ask a Finn, they will likely be as baffled as you are. That’s why Melanie Dower, an expat who has been living in Finland for the past decade, has taken up the charge. Her vantage as an outsider entrenched in Finnish culture uniquely positions her to identify the keys to Finnish happiness that elude the rest of the world and that Finns take for granted. From sauna to strong social safety nets, Finnish life is made up of a constellation of habits and structures that leave its residents relaxed, healthy, and fulfilled.

Story
Fitness coach Ben Carpenter spent his entire adult life working in the fitness industry, researching the real science and studies behind fat loss, and answering questions with simplified, unbiased answers. Ben's point is this: The best weight loss diet doesn't exist. From keto to intermittent fasting, no diet is superior. They all work in the short term, but are rarely sustainable for the long term. The better solution is to maintain stronger, positive motivators that make us want to stay healthy; the easiest way to do this is through simple, effective habits.

Story
“Eat less, move more” is incomplete. You can lose weight eating more. How? Through a process known as diet-induced thermogenesis. Diet-induced thermogenesis, the calories burned digesting and absorbing the food you eat, has a greater impact on “calories-out” than exercise. But when you restrict your caloric intake, you restrict diet-induced thermogenesis. Thus, the principle of weight loss is not consuming a very small number of calories - especially when “calories-in” increases “calories-out”.

A groundbreaking guide to the surprising source of good health. Genetics and lifestyle are thought to be the two most important determinants of good health. But that is not the whole story. We have a second genome, our gut bacteria, that sets the dial on our bodies. Unlike our DNA, we can influence the gut bacteria, or microbiota, to optimize all aspects of our health. In The Good Gut, noted Stanford researchers Justin and Erica Sonnenburg investigate how the trillions of microbes that reside in our gastrointestinal tract help define us.

It’s a systemic belief that equates fitness, health, and thinness with worth and assigns food a moral value. And it’s a belief that pervades our society.

Great book for anyone hoping for the truth about fat loss!
Ben Carpenter tells it like it is. Fat loss is a difficult topic to fully understand with so many nuances that it is impossible to have a one size fits all program for those looking to lose fat (which Ben wonderfully points out is different from weight loss). He is knowledgeable and informative with lots of good information that is backed up by scientific research papers. He also is very clear about making sure that the reader understands the pitfalls of certain strategies and even advises that fat loss might not be right for everyone. He has quite a pleasant speaking voice so it was wonderful to have his company while on my commute to work each day. I definitely recommend this book as well as following him on social media. He keeps it real, debunks the myths that others are trying to sell you and overall really wants what is best for you as an individual. Thanks Ben for your hard work on this book!

What a great resource
I liked that Ben goes through everything that’s popular about fat loss to see what is hype and what is real. If you have ever felt like the information on fat loss (weight loss) is not consistent, listen to this book and hopefully you’ll see what makes sense and what doesn’t. This book goes not only into the science of diets but also brushes on psychology that affects calorie intake. I found that I held some beliefs that were incorrect. And some other things I believed were reaffirmed. In a world that tries to sell the one diet that fits all, I think this is as close as it gets to a fits most resource.

Best health book I have read
Wow where to start? I grew up in the 90s with disordered eating, super thin super models and unrealistic unhealthy weight loss ideas.
I have followed Ben for a while on social media and decided to get his book. Lots of information, science to back it up, and realistic ideas of how to use this knowledges in your everyday life without sacrificing your mental health and happiness for a few pounds.
I found the chapters on alcohol and sugar particularly helpful since there is so much misinformation about these these topics specifically.
No more fear mongering, just great science presented in an easily accessible and at times entertaining manner.
Also, Ben was a great narrator to listen to, highly reccomend. This is the only audio book I have ever taken the time to review but I think more people should have this knowledge.

Clears the confusion of fat loss!
There are so many aspects to fat loss that are obscured by social media and marketing, this book breaks each issue down in it's own chapter. It frustrates me that it has taken me this long to learn what I should focus on and what is just influencer nonsense or unhealthy behaviour. Honestly, this has helped clarify ALL the things I was unsure about.
I'm already recommending it to people when they tell me they are trying to lose weight...
The author's approach is straightforward, easy to understand and understanding that everyone is different and we can't be grouped by one rigid solution. Because of this book I am now equipped with the knowledge of assessing where I am, what I can improve on and focussing on my reason why I want to do this...

Ben Carpenter is the Emily Oster of fitness and weight loss, with more cursing
I love the data support approach that Ben takes in outlining what data has supported weight loss and also when a certain approach doesn’t make a significant difference. There are so many studies that he cites that there isn't a feeling of cherry picking. What I loved the most was that by the end of the book, I didn't feel like I was pushed toward any direction in regards to weight loss, I just felt informed and empowered to make my own decisions.

He's not selling anything and presents the information clearly with references to legit research.

More than just a fat loss book.
There's a lot of diet/fat loss info out there, and it can get really confusing how to approach different choices and protocols. This book really helped me focus in on what really matters, and figure out what my idea of healthy is. Any book that emphasizes doing what works well for your own body is a hit for me. The author took it a step further and had a caring, personal tone throughout the book, which was refreshing. Thank you so much!

Say goodbye to the drama of the diet du jour
I loved the in-depth research studies cited throughout the book, and I appreciated the authors intention to provide education so people might make their own best decisions about what to pursue. It’s so easy to get caught up in the latest, and this book does a great job of helping to prevent that. Or cure you of it.
