Through this book Rujuta tackles pretty much every myth and fad to do with exercise, demystifies exercise for everyone, and presents it as not a brainless activity but a science which has the potential to combat all lifestyle disorders, including diabetes and obesity, way better than any drug.

It explores how dozens of hormones affect hunger and satiety and interact with the brain and the gut to regulate feeding behavior.

Because its symptoms often don't manifest until the liver is seriously compromised, many people are not aware that they are at risk.

Did you know that fat is as dangerous as alcohol to the liver?
