Every living organism intuitively knows how to balance its diet—except for humans. Discover how the craving for protein is universal and diet-determining, in addition to appetites for carbohydrates, fats, sodium, and calcium. To test their protein-leverage hypotheses, years of groundbreaking research are shared regarding mold, locusts, crickets, mice, cats, dogs, and primates. How is this applicable to us? The authors provide key takeaways to take charge of your nutrition, food environment, and appetites to enjoy your journey toward a healthy and satisfying diet. Hint—prioritize protein.If you are fascinated by scientific animal studies and how they may explain in what way physiology, evolution, and feeding behavior affect our current situation, then this book is recommended for you.
