Eat the Yolks: Discover Paleo, Fight Food Lies, and Reclaim Your Health

Worry about cholesterol. Avoid red meat. Eat whole grains. Could it all be a lie?

We live in an era of health hype and nutrition propaganda, and weâ‚¬re suffering for it. Decades of avoiding egg yolks, choosing margarine over butter, and replacing the real foods of our ancestors with low-fat, processed, packaged substitutes have left us with an obesity epidemic, ever-rising rates of chronic disease, and, above all, total confusion about what to eat and why. This is a tragedy of misinformation, food industry shenanigans, and cheap calories disguised as health food. It turns out that everything weâ‚¬ve been told about how to eat is wrong. Fat and cholesterol are harmful to your health? Nopeâ‚¬"they are crucial to your health. â‚¬Å“Whole grainsâ‚¬Â are health food? Not even close. Counting calories is the way to lose weight? Not gonna workâ‚¬"nutrients are what matter. Nutrition can come from a box, bag, or capsule? Donâ‚¬t count on it! In Eat the Yolks, Liz Wolfe debunks all these myths and more, revealing whatâ‚¬s behind the lies and bringing the truth about fat, cholesterol, protein, and carbs to light. Youâ‚¬ll be amazed at the tall tales weâ‚¬ve been told in the name of â‚¬Å“healthy eating.â‚¬Â With wit and grace, Wolfe makes a compelling argument for a diet based on Paleo foods. She takes us back to the foods of our ancestors, combining the lessons of history with those of modern science to uncover why real, whole foodâ‚¬"the kind humans ate for thousands of years before modern nutrition dogma led us astrayâ‚¬"holds the key to amazing health and happy taste buds. In Eat the Yolks, Liz Wolfe doesnâ‚¬t just make a case for eating the whole egg. She uncovers the shocking lies weâ‚¬ve been told about fat, cholesterol, protein, carbs, and calories and brings us the truth about which foods are healthyâ‚¬"and which foods are really harming us. Youâ‚¬ll learn truths like: - fat and cholesterol are crucial, not harmful . . . and why - â‚¬Å“whole grainsâ‚¬Â are processed foods . . . and what to eat instead - counting calories is a waste of energy . . . and what we actually should be tracking - all animal products are not created equal . . . and which ones we truly need - nutrition doesnâ‚¬t come in a box, bag, or capsule . . . and why thereâ‚¬s no substitute for real food!
