Publisher's summary

A proven plan to optimize your health by reclaiming your natural ability to burn body fat for fuel

The ability to use body fat for energy is essential to health - but over decades of practice, renowned family physician Catherine Shanahan, MD, observed that many of her patients could not burn their body fat between meals, trapping them in a downward spiral of hunger, fatigue, and weight gain.

In The Fatburn Fix, Dr. Shanahan shows us how industrially produced vegetable oils accumulate in our body fat and disrupt our body’s energy-producing systems, driving food addictions that hijack our moods and habits while making it nearly impossible to control our weight. To reclaim our health, we need to detoxify our body fat and help repair our "fatburn" capabilities.

Dr. Shanahan shares five important rules to fix your fatburn:

  1. Eat natural fats, not vegetable oils.
  2. Eat slow-digesting carbs, not starchy carbs or sweets.
  3. Seek salt.
  4. Drink plenty of water.
  5. Supplement with vitamins and minerals.

She then provides a revolutionary, step-by-step plan to help reboot your fatburn potential in as little as two weeks. This customizable two-phase plan is widely accessible, easy to follow, and will appeal to the full spectrum of diet ideologies, from plant-based to carnivore to keto and beyond. By making a few changes to what you eat and when, you will lose unwanted weight and restore your body’s ability to store and release energy.

With The Fatburn Fix, Dr. Shanahan shows how regaining your fatburn is the key to effortless weight loss and a new, elevated life, paving the way to abundant energy and long-term health and happiness.

She does it again!

I wish every person on the planet would listen to just a few minutes of what Dr Cate has to say. The principles she believes in speak truth…with no agenda other than to give people the chance to know how things actually work. No hype, nothing for show. Deep Nutrition is my favorite book of all time. This book is just as good and gives some new insights that keep you up to date. Great thing is she doesn’t have to correct anything she’s previously taught. It’s all Rock solid. Bravo Dr. Cate! I’m in your camp.

the reasoning why to eat healthy

I loved the book. it was very informative. I have followed a paleo diet for about 7 years but have kinda fallen off the bandwagon over this last year. This book had inspired me back to where I need to be with a little more understanding the reasoning why. I'm going to tell all my loved ones about it.

I wish there was a way to view or print the recipes. It gets annoying to keep playing it back so you get get all the ingredients

Very informative!

This is a long book but it is so full of useful information that it is worth the time. There are many tips and tricks about what is wrong with our current American diet. Even though I primarily eat vegetarian, I learned a lot about human’s dietary history and what kind of diet promotes our best health. I highly recommend this book if you want more information about how to eat properly.

Change my life

I read this book in March and started implementing the strategies. I’ve always been very healthy what prompted it was a one point above normal on my glucose levels. To some this may not seem like a big deal. I was retested in June and I was back to my normal values. Interestingly my triglycerides cut in half. Very easy to give up toils unless you go out to dinner. Sugars was not a huge problem for me and I really not missed. Food taste a lot better than I did before. Very happy with the results and plan on keeping us up.

Great book for fixing your metabolism

The best book to fix your metabolic health as well as lose weight if you want. This book and her first book Deep nutrition have changed my health and my family's. Now I have more energy and less body fat and more muscles and even I got sick rarely or never after following Dr cate's advices in both deep nutrition and this book for about 5 months. But you will feel the change even in the first week especially in your energy
