Gary Taubes quotes
We don't get fat because we overeat; we overeat because we're getting fat.
Gary Taubes
Just as animal research tells us that gluttony and sloth are side effects of a drive to accumulate body fat, it also says that eating in moderation and being physically active (literally, having the energy to exercise) are not evidence of moral rectitude. Rather, they're the metabolic benefits of a body that's programmed to remain lean.
Gary Taubes
