  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  Understand the science explaining why caloric restriction diets fail long-term for the vast majority of people and why the weight loss industry profits from this predictable failure. This liberating audiobook presents research documenting how dieting triggers biological responses ensuring weight regain while creating psychological patterns that worsen eating behaviors. Learn why willpower cannot overcome metabolic adaptation, hormonal changes, and neurological restructuring that dieting initiates as your body defends against perceived starvation. The narrator reveals how diet industry marketing creates false expectations, blames individuals for biological inevitabilities, and profits from repeat customers guaranteed by their products fundamental ineffectiveness. Discover the psychological damage caused by repeated diet failure including disordered eating, body shame, and metabolic harm that makes subsequent weight management even more difficult. Understand set point theory, metabolic adaptation research, and why lasting weight loss may require completely different approaches than caloric restriction. This audiobook examines what actually influences body composition, why health and weight are not as connected as assumed, and how the pursuit of thinness often damages health it supposedly serves. Learn alternative frameworks for health and wellbeing that do not depend on fighting biological imperatives destined to win. Perfect for anyone exhausted by diet cycling, recovering from eating disorders, or seeking evidence-based understanding of weight, health, and the industry that profits from your struggles.

  Does eating more carbohydrates, or fats, cause one to put on more weight? Are ketone bodies toxins or vital products that keep us alive during starvation? Does the concept of 'fat-burning exercise' hold true? In this game-changing book, Keith Frayn, an international expert in human metabolism and nutrition, dispels common misconceptions about human metabolism, explaining in everyday language the important metabolic processes that underlie all aspects of our daily lives. Frayn describes the communication systems that enable our different organs and tissues to cooperate, for instance in providing fuel to our muscles when we exercise, and in preserving our tissues during fasting. He explores the impressive adaptability of human metabolism and discusses the metabolic disorders that can arise when metabolism 'goes wrong'. For anyone skeptical of information about diet and lifestyle, this concise book guides the listener through what metabolism really involves.

  'Look Back to Look Forward' -...

  Frank O'Connor

  While Frank O'Connor was known primarily as one of Ireland's finest short-story writers, he was also an accomplished translator. In the long line of Irish writers given to translating poems in Irish into poems written in English – a tradition stretching back at least as far as Jonathan Swift – he stands out above all the rest.
  Between the mid-1920s and the mid-1960s, O'Connor published 121 translations that give voice to the full range of this centuries-old tradition. Collected here in full for the first time, O'Connor's work shows an uncanny aptitude for carrying over into English verse many of the riches to be found in the originals – the ancient voice of the Hag of Beare lamenting her decline into old age; the voices of the early monks describing the Irish landscape, Irish weather, their religious faith, and, in at least one instance, their cat; the voice of Hugh O'Rourke's wife torn between loyalty to her husband and a rising desire for her seducer. All these voices haunted O'Connor throughout his career, whatever else he was doing. The collection includes the Irish-language sources for all 121 translations along with literal translations, enabling the reader to see what O'Connor started from.
  O'Connor's translations sprang from a compulsive desire to breathe life into Ireland's past, to 'look back to look forward,' as he once put it; for him the Irish-language tradition was not for scholars and archives alone, but formed a living body of work vitally relevant to an Ireland that seemed puzzlingly indifferent to it.
  Thanks to O'Connor's profound love of his country's language and its rich, literary subsoil – 'a literature of which no Irishman need feel ashamed', he once said – these voices from Ireland's past can still be heard. Strikingly modern in tone, they conjoin flesh and spirit, the sacred and the secular, in a way that speaks to humankind.
