An absolute must read, predicting what we are now seeing 40 years later. Yudkin’s research on sugar and Mary G. Enig’s research on fats have turned common nutrition wisdom upside down. I have done the traditional low fat, high carb method of eating and had horrible triglyceride and cholesterol levels. See my review here: http://www..com/Know-Your-Fats-Understanding-Cholesterol/product-reviews/0967812607/ref=cm_cr_dp_synop?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=0&sortBy=bySubmissionDateDescending#R3739P0BCADWI0

Switched to more saturated fats and fewer sugars, and my levels went way down, contrary to what my physician thought would happen. I see this in my daily life at the office: co-workers eating all the refined sugary treats and constantly complaining that they are fat or sick, or both. I refrain most of the time, and am not fat, nor do I get sick (unless my son sneezes on me). Change your eating style, don’t believe the B.S. media and the government says will make you healthy, and you’ll see the difference.

Surprisingly timely information, despite its last update in the 1980’s. Out of print for years. As a physician-scientist, I am glad to see his work stand the test of time. Hopefully will inspire/provoke further action – certainly has for me! The later chapters on his travails defending himself/his work against ignorant industry attacks prove that, sadly, nothing has changed in the ensuing years.

I ordered this book after reading an online NY Times Magazine article entitled "Is Sugar Toxic", and I plan to order several more copies to give to the people I love. This book traces the history of sugar, how sugar is refined, and the many effects it has on body chemistry. Because of my family medical history, of particular interest to me is the connection between sugar and coronary disease, since most of us are still under the old assumption that saturated fat is what we need to worry about. This book disputed that notion forty years ago, and is finally being accepted as mainstream science today, but old science dies hard.
