Dark calories : how vegetable oils destroyed human health and how we get it back

Shanahan, Catherine2024
Book
'Dark Calories' shows that vegetable oil is the defining ingredient in both junk food and, terrifyingly, the entire modern diet, and makes the case that eliminating it is the single best thing you can do for your health. Through a narrative account of the rise of the vegetable oil industry, a walk through the alarming science, and an action plan to help you take your health back into your own hands today, Dr Shanahan shows how three factors - a combination of endless advertising sound bites, undisclosed conflicts of interest in research, and the failure of medicine to focus on prevention - have destroyed human health and turned nutrition science into a farce.
