Synopsis

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, M.D., 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.

Goodreads review by Heather on July 23, 2020

The first 2/3 are really informative and interesting. My only critique is in the recipes/ingredients/suggestions part of the book. The complaint is that, for a foodie, there are no comprehensive lists of how she would categorize different ingredients. It leaves the impression that the author has a s......more

Goodreads review by Carol Bakker on April 08, 2022

In a nutshell: consuming the wrong kinds of fats is no bueno. The kind of fat you eat changes what kinds of fuels your body's cells can use, which determines everything about your health. Back in 2018, listening to this maverick physician, Dr. Cate, first clued me in to dangers of polyunsaturated fa......more

Goodreads review by Jackie on June 19, 2020

This is a rather scientific book written in such a way that it is not dull. I wouldn't have minded a little more science and perhaps less of, "instead of this try this" << Because that is a HUGE part of the book. The first 2/3 of the book, however, is interesting and I think it has a lot to merit. I......more

As a huge fan of Deep Nutrition, I was excited to read the Fatburn Fix, but felt a little disappointed at first. I guess I tricked myself into reading this book even though the target market is clearly for those seeking to lose weight. I just really wanted another Deep Nutrition!! I did however, enjo......more

The information laid out in this b......more
