Synopsis

The innovative guide that reveals how eating more fat—the smart kind—is the key to health, longevity, and permanent weight loss.For years experts have told us that eating fat is bad. But by banning fat from our diets, we’ve deprived ourselves of considerable health benefits—and have actually sabotaged our own efforts to lose weight.Though they originally came from vastly different schools of thought about diet and weight loss, renowned nutritionist Jonny Bowden and well-respected physician Steven Masley independently came to the same conclusion about why so many people continually fail to shed pounds and get healthy. It all comes back to a distinction far more important than calories vs. carbs or paleo vs. plant-based: smart fat vs. dumb fat.In Smart Fat, they explain the amazing properties of healthy fat, including its ability to balance hormones for increased energy and appetite control, and its incredible anti-inflammatory benefits. The solution for slimming down—and keeping the pounds off for life—is to “smart-fat” your meals, incorporating smart fats with fiber, protein, and most importantly, flavor. Bowden and Masley identify smart fats, explain what not to eat, and provide a thirty-day meal plan and fifty recipes based on the magic formula of fat, fiber, protein, and flavor.It’s time to unlearn what we think we know about food. Getting smart about fat—and everything you eat—and learning to smart-fat your meals is the only solution you'll ever need.

Goodreads review by Becky on September 10, 2016

First sentence: Not too long ago, we were both advocating specific diets for weight loss and wellness. We weren't just advocates of these plans--we built our professional lives around these two seemingly contradictory nutritional philosophies. Premise/plot: "Eat more fat. Lose more weight.

Goodreads review by Stephen on January 26, 2019

I first listened to this as an audiobook. I then bought the book and took notes to reference. This is the kind of book that will influence you for the rest of your life. I've totally changed my food sources and added new foods. I never ate almonds or avocados or purchased avocado oil before. I didn'......more

Goodreads review by Kim on June 23, 2017

This was a great book, explaining (in simple laymen's terms) the science behind good and bad fats, processed carbs and inflammation. It's more of a pep talk for a lifestyle change than it is a temporary diet. I have been following this way of eating on and off on my own for a while but I appreciated......more

Goodreads review by Jennifer on January 31, 2023

Out of the zillions of diet books I’ve read recently, this one seems the most sensible and most doable. It advocates a relatively low-carb diet, but it isn’t nearly as restrictive or complicated as Atkins or strict keto. It’s an interesting book because the two authors were originally on opposite en......more
