Daniel E. Lieberman
Daniel E. Lieberman—bestselling author of The Story of the Human Body and Exercised, and founding chair of the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University—cuts through all the confusing and contradictory advice on diet and wellness to argue that there can be no simple, definitive answer. Drawing from evolutionary biology, physiology, anthropology, anatomy, medical science, and history, Lieberman examines, with brio and wit, the history and health effects of food from before the invention of cooking up to today’s industrially produced diets. He shows how we evolved to eat almost anything, and by evaluating and trying many of these diets (raw food, Paleo, Mediterranean, Blue Zone, intermittent fasting, Atkins, DASH), he helps you understand why none is flawless though some are better than others.
Lieberman explores the costs and benefits of cheap, energy-rich, tempting, and often unhealthy ultra-processed foods; the tangled roots of weight gain; how diet influences obesity, heart disease, and cancer; and the claims of benefits offered by high- and low-fat diets, meal replacements, intermittent fasting, carnivorism, vegetarianism, and veganism—while also showing how over centuries most cultures evolved ingenious ways to grow and cook healthy, delicious food.
This fascinating and entertaining science-based book on nutrition, digestion, and health will teach you how to be well fed instead of fed up with dietary hucksterism.

Kritikerstimmen
“Wonderful: wise, witty, and full of unexpected insights.”
—Bill Bryson, bestselling author of The Body
“One of the country’s foremost evolutionary biologists gives us a terrific book that cuts through the noise of fad diets and nutrition advice by turning to the most reliable guide we have: the deep history of the human body. A wise, accessible, and evidence-based framework for eating well in a world that has made eating badly all too easy.”
—Michael Moss, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Salt Sugar Fat
“What kind of food should we eat to maintain good health? It's a surprisingly complicated
question. Paleoanthropologist Lieberman relies on nutritional science and the lens of evolutionary biology to investigate the hoopla of eating fads and demystify popular diet programs. . . . [Lieberman's] commentary is thoughtful, fact-filled, and frequently humorous. . . . Ultimately, there is no simple, one-size-fits-all diet that improves health and extends longevity. But for all who are hungry for reliable information about nutrition and would like to cut through the confusion about overhyped or fearmongering diets, Fed Up is a satiating read.”
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“A game ... exploration of diet fads and the quest for the perfect plate. . . . A book that neatly punctures food myths while encouraging a splendid, healthful diversity at table.”
