This is an Instaread Summary of The Big Fat Surprise by Nina Teicholz.
Below is a preview of the earlier sections of the summary:
Introduction
The author had the luxury of approaching the nutritional science field as an open-
minded individual with no affiliation or funding from any institutions or persons with
deeply entrenched views. The result is some alarming information about the ways
that nutrition has been misinterpreted for decades. The supposed health hazards of
saturated fats found in butter, eggs, and meat have not been substantiated by
reliable science. Science supports the fact that the body is healthiest on a diet rich
in fat.
