Gary Taubes examines the scientific evidence behind modern dietary guidelines and challenges the belief that dietary fat is the primary cause of heart disease and obesity. He argues that refined carbohydrates and their effect on insulin levels are the true drivers of the modern metabolic disease epidemic.
