Why We Eat (Too Much) by Dr Andrew Jenkinson draws on his career as a weight-loss surgeon to explain why traditional dieting advice so often fails, unpacking the hormonal forces that set our body weight. Metabolical by Dr Robert Lustig turns a critical eye on ultra-processed food, exposing how manufacturing techniques disrupt metabolism and drive chronic disease. Together, these brand-new paperbacks offer adults a science-backed look at why we eat the way we do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhy We Eat (Too Much): The New Science of Appetite challenges the 'eat less, move more' formula that has dominated diet culture for decades. Dr Andrew Jenkinson, a consultant bariatric surgeon, blends patient case studies from thousands of consultations with research on hormones, fat cells, and the brain's appetite regulation. He introduces a personal 'set weight point' that the body defends fiercely, explaining why crash diets often backfire and lead to regained weight, and why lasting change requires more than counting calories. Readers gain a compassionate, science-based framework for understanding cravings, plateaus, and the frustrating cycle of yo-yo dieting. Metabolical: The Lure and the Lies of Processed Food takes a complementary angle, zooming out from the individual body to the modern food system as a whole. Dr Robert Lustig, a pediatric neuroendocrinologist, argues that ultra-processed foods override natural satiety signals, disrupting the gut, liver, and brain in ways that fuel obesity, diabetes, and fatty liver disease. He traces how food industry practices and outdated nutrition advice combined to create today's health crisis, offering a practical roadmap back to real food. Read together, the two titles move from the personal biology of appetite to the systemic forces shaping supermarket shelves, giving readers a fuller, evidence-based picture of modern health.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplains the hormone-driven science behind appetite and dieting struggles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExposes how ultra-processed foods disrupt metabolism and drive chronic disease\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by two respected medical experts with decades of experience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers evidence-based alternatives to fad diets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMakes an ideal gift for health-conscious readers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand-new paperback editions for any home library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhy We Eat (Too Much) — Dr Andrew Jenkinson combines two decades of bariatric surgery case studies with metabolic science to explain the hormonal 'set weight point' behind failed diets.\u003cbr\u003eMetabolical — Dr Robert Lustig delivers a hard-hitting expose of how ultra-processed foods disrupt metabolism and drive chronic diseases like diabetes, fatty liver, and heart disease.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Authors\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDr Andrew Jenkinson is a consultant surgeon specializing in bariatric and laparoscopic surgery at University College Hospital in London.
