Publisher's summary
The idea of "good nutrition" is imparted to us from early childhood and reinforced through governmental dietary advice throughout our lifetime. This way of thinking about nutrition has, almost quite literally, been shoved down our throats for hundreds of years, but is it better for us than our natural diet?
The starting point of the argument presented in The Food Bondage is this: “We don't eat the way we've evolved to eat.” This statement is pretty much uncontroversial because nobody claims that we eat according to our evolutionary past. Our species evolved with a nomadic diet, but for the last few thousand years, we have been eating according to a farmer’s diet. The phrase often used when referring to our dietary recommendations is evidence-based nutrition. This means that our nutritional guidelines are the best guidelines (based on evidence) for eating, according to our modern dietary model.
The crux of the problem is that our modern diet is not our natural diet. It is an artificial regimen, and even its best version cannot compete with the diet with which we evolved. Instead of an evidence-based, traditional diet, we should move to our (preferably evidence-based) natural human diet.
The author postulates that neither our traditional regimen nor popular alternative diets meet the criteria for optimal nutrition. After all, these eating recommendations are arbitrary. The starting points of our officially recommended diet are our crops and eating traditions. For alternative diets, it is simply guessing what foods are best suited for us. Consequently, these regimes propose fixed macro-nutrient ratios or the exclusions of particular food groups. Moreover, they focus only on what we should eat, forgetting about the importance of our eating schedule.
The author further argues that, in spite of the claims that our original way of eating cannot be recreated, we can, in fact, determine the structure of the pre-agriculture human diet.
This can be done by looking closely at their living circumstances because they enforced a particular menu and eating pattern.
According to the author, our native diet was fluid and nonrestrictive as to what we had been eating. Furthermore, how our ancestors were eating could be even more important than what they were eating. For example, without food stocks, they couldn’t have eaten according to our modern thee daily meals schedule.
The resulting broadly defined food-consumption model has many advantages over today’s diets. Notably, it makes us better able to tolerate a wide spectrum of foods. Therefore, we do not need to exactly recreate our nomadic menu. In fact, we can enjoy most of the benefits of our natural diet while consuming reasonably processed modern foods.

We all aspire to lead a healthy lifestyle. Being fit can also help us to be mentally active, feel good, and be more productive to go about our everyday lives. However, we also love to eat, and a lot of us do so indiscriminately on impulse which makes us intermittently lose and gain weight. We can eat when we need and keep excess weight off permanently. Sadly, not many people are aware of this fact.

Based on 20 years of investigative reporting and interviews with 100 practicing physicians who embrace the keto lifetstyle as the best prescription for their patients' health, Taubes' book puts the ketogenic diet movement in the necessary historical and scientific perspective. It makes clear the vital misconceptions in how we've come to think about obesity and diet (no, people do not become fat simply because they eat too much; hormones play the critical role) and uses the collected clinical experience of the medical community to provide essential practical advice.

How much of our daily caloric intake comes from ingesting substances that, technically speaking, do not meet traditional definitions of “food”? Chances are, if you’re eating something that came wrapped in plastic and contains a funky ingredient you don’t have in your kitchen, it's most likely—almost definitely—ultra-processed food, or UPF.

Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Jackson (Reid Scott) and Grimes (Cobie Smulders) race to find the killer, setting them on a collision course with the city’s crime underbelly, and a perpetrator who seems happy to toy with them. “Rule number two. No crimes of passion. The perfect murder is always business, never pleasure.”
