Tim Spector is Professor of Genetic Epidemiology at King's College London and Hon Consultant Physician at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital. He has won several academic awards and published over 700 academic papers, a large proportion of which relate directly to nutrition and the causes of obesity. He has appeared in numerous TV documentaries and is often consulted in British and international media on his team's research. Since 2011 he has been leading the largest microbiome project in the UK, using genetic sequencing to study the bacteria in the guts of 5,000 twins. He is the lead investigator for BRITISH GUT, the UK's largest open-source science project to understand the microbial diversity of the human gut.

'The Diet Myth is fascinating, and now I'm obsessed with microbes!' Nigella Lawson

We are all increasingly bewildered by the simple question of what to eat. Despite advice from experts, governments and dieticians about the dangers of too much fat, sugar, protein and lack of exercise, our nutrition - and the global obesity crisis - is getting worse.

Why can one person eat a certain meal and gain weight and another eat exactly the same food and lose pounds? Genes provide part of the answer, but we have been overlooking one vital aspect of diet that lies within us. Thanks to recent breakthroughs, scientists have begun to examine the permanent residents in our guts: the thousands of previously unknown but essential microbes whose job it is to digest our food and keep us alive.

Drawing on the latest science and his own research team's pioneering work, Professor Tim Spector explores the hidden world of the microbiome and demystifies the common misconceptions about fat, calories, vitamins and nutrients. Only by understanding how our own microbes interact with our bodies can we overcome our confusion about modern diets and nutrition to regain the correct balance of our ancestors.

Mixing cutting-edge discoveries, illuminating science and his own case studies, Spector shows why we should stop listening to the myths of diet fads and instead embrace diversity for a healthy gut and a healthy body.

本书译者李超群,华中科技大学同济医学院本科,利兹大学应用翻译专业硕士。我大概可算作TA的同门吧(这也是我对此书有好感的原因吧)。由于有医学背景(但我不知TA本科修习哪门专业,有些八卦好奇),翻译又是其本行,整本书读起来非常顺畅,这在目前翻译过来的医学科普书中比...

三天不到看完 证明了因疫情宅家的我是多么无聊 这本科普丛书的翻译很棒 语句通顺易懂 把作者的诙谐幽默翻译得很到位 读起来很轻松 读完收获不少:1 卡路里并不准确 如果严格计算卡路里来规划饮食 可能会疯 而且不够准确 食物在肠道里发生了什么 你永远不会很清楚 2 欧洲人比非...

最近的阅读书籍,大概陆陆续续用了一周多的时间。 作者英国的蒂姆.斯佩克特,看介绍很厉害的样子。“遗传方面的专家,发表专业论文逾800篇,引用率排名全球前1%,并掌握全球最大的宝贵实验数据库之一:对13000对同卵双胞胎超过20年跟踪对比的数据。” 译者李超群,看上去也很厉...

#饮食的迷思# 因为术后一个月里只能吃流食,可以吃的东西极其有限,我不得不花大量时间和精力思考以及尝试如何在维持生命机能的同时尽可能地补充一些营养,于是对饮食和营养学产生了很大的兴趣,这个时候发现了这本由英国遗传学教授蒂姆写的这本书《饮食的迷思》。 这本书很有...  

评分

书名叫饮食的迷思,书中内容也确实解开了一些关于饮食的疑惑和误解,读起来一点儿不累,非常有意思。作者有个50人的研究团队,跟踪研究了11000对双胞胎二十多年,试图从将饮食环境和基因的影响分开的角度来研究一些营养学的问题。 书中反复强调的是肠道菌群的重要性,肠道菌群...

受益匪浅

破除饮食迷思的好书,每章节用一个豪斯医生式的发病小故事引人入胜,趣味性强。章节内综述研究发现,结合身边或自己的实例,又比较接地气,行文幽默诙谐。饮食建议总结为一句话就是:听从自己的肠道(微生物),增加饮食多样性,吃真正的蔬菜水果,可以间歇性断食给微生物放假。你的身体是一座花园而不是神庙,你是这个花园最好的园丁。

评分

"We tend to forget just how recent is the latest craze for fitness and sports. In the 1980s joggers in strange pyjama-like outfits were seen as weirdos and treated with derision. " "For those of you who genetically or culturally can’t stand the thought of physical exercise there may be another way to burn calories – thinking hard."

评分

肠是人类第二个大脑,肠里的微生物能和基因一样影响决定我们身体状态,不吃加工食物,减少抗菌素的使用,增加食物的多样性来增加微生物的种类,保护我们的肠胃就像精心照料花园一样。

评分

这个真没法评价。科普性的读物,阅读体验一般。但学到了很多关于饮食健康、饮食安全以及生物学的知识。作为一般读者,没有精力和动力核实书里数据的真实性和准确性,无法考证实验方法的合理性,对于本书给出的一些结论,仍然会保持将信将疑的态度。但营养和安全不是哲学思辨,无法得出一个能指导自己生活的方案,还是有些沮丧。
