Presents an account of the shady practices of the food and weight-loss industries, showing how labels can be manipulated for profits, the media can be led to promote specific products, and regulators can be fooled. - Simon and Schuster
&;In his rollicking, unabashed, and sometimes shocking book, Jeff Scot Philips offers an unprecedented inside look at how labels can be manipulated, regulators can be fooled, and how consumer gatekeepers&;from personal trainers to nutritionists&;sell high-margin &;health food&; to an unsuspecting public that wants to lose weight.&;  &;Oz Garcia, bestselling author of Redesigning 50 and The Balance
&;Why are you are you eating diet foods and getting fatter?
&;Why do you still have cellulite even though you eat &;healthy&;?
&;Why don&;t you know what you are eating, even when you read the label?
&;Why does the obesity rate in America keep climbing, even though the weight-loss market is a $300 billion industry?
It is because food manufacturers, the media, nutritionists, trainers, medical professionals, health inspectors, and people like Jeff Scot Philips collude for profits and are: big fat food liars.
