Dark Calories

“Dr. Cate offers a compelling and eye-opening exploration into the harmful impacts of vegetable oils on our health, challenging widely held beliefs and shedding light on the root causes of many metabolic diseases. Her rigorous analysis and critique of the healthcare industry’s complicity in promoting these dangerous products, despite overwhelming evidence of their detrimental effects, is both brave and necessary. By empowering readers with knowledge and practical advice to reclaim their health through real food, Dark Calories stands as a beacon for those seeking to navigate the misinformation surrounding diet and nutrition, offering a clear path towards wellness and disease prevention.”

“Nobody else is focusing on the fact that 30 percent of our calories are now coming from oils that didn’t exist before the industrial era. Instead, we hear about 77 thousand different things we need to avoid. Dr. Cate makes life easier by spotlighting the one action that is the most life changing: avoiding the Hateful Eight toxic seed oils.”

“In plain language, Dr. Cate spells out the science that documents the dangers of seed oils, and her sensible advice guides the reader through all the misinformation and conflicting dogmas about how to eat. Dark Calories is an invitation to join the growing community of people invested in creating true health.”

“In Dark Calories, Dr. Cate does more than pull back the curtain to reveal the slow-poison in factory foods. She tears it down and sets it on fire.”

“Dr. Cate has taken a comprehensive look at our entire healthcare system. She explains complex chemistry in a way anyone can understand, the why of what we consider healthy, and the common myths about nutrition and medications. But most importantly, there are shopping lists, recipes, and suggested literature to further your nutritional journey. Reading Dark Calories and making the appropriate lifestyle modifications may be the most significant healthcare decision you will ever make.”

“Dr. Cate has done it again. Diving into the sordid history of dangerous seed oils, collusion between big pharmaceutical companies and medicine, and the pervasive deception of the public, her new book reads at times like a historical spy novel. Driven by greed, our health has been sideswiped, bought and paid for by industries that have no care for their consequences on our health. Don’t enter a grocery store, restaurant, or especially a doctor’s office until you’ve read this stunning book.”

“Dr. Cate’s important book Dark Calories describes how the consumption of highly processed foods containing toxic vegetable oils and elevated sugar are contributing to the most common chronic disease seen in people today. The information presented will help people make better choices in food selections and lifestyle that can prevent most chronic diseases.”
 

“Listen up sports dietitians: you need to read this book to understand inflammation because what most of you guys were telling me didn’t work. I had the best health of my athletic career with the L.A. Lakers thanks to Dr. Cate.”
