About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

TikTok sensation Dr Idz's myth-busting, scientific guide to nutrition and fitness.

Does Diet Coke really cause cancer? Are eggs healthy? Does alcohol stop fat burning? And what steps can you take to avoid obesity, diabetes and heart disease?

In Saturated Facts, TikTok star Dr Idz, an NHS medic with a degree in nutritional research, debunks the myths that often go unchecked on social media and explores the cutting-edge science around some of the most exciting topics in diet and health, including:

- The link between nutrition and our mental wellbeing

- The science behind gut health and how our gut acts as our 'second brain'

- Chrono-nutrition - the timing of when and what we eat

- The benefits and disadvantages of the most popular diets such as keto, fasting and vegan

Dr Idz is on a mission to provide you with scientifically accurate information to make the best decisions about your health, cutting through the noise so you can eat better, feel good and live longer.

I don't necessarily like some of the conclusions Dr. Idrees Mughal arrives to, but the research is there, so that's all I can do, "not like it". Great read.

Loved it! Helps break down the science of eating and uses many meta analyses to support. A worthy read if you're interested in eating a balanced diet, loads of great advice and not condescending!

All we want is the evidence based facts so we can try and make the right decisions. (With the odd treat) so much contradictory advice on social media. Think I will stick with science. Thanks for this Dr Idz

This book is a must have. In this current age of social media medical misinformation, this book helps to clear away the nonsense, apply actual context to sensational headlines and medical fear-mongering by using factual information, context and breaking it down in an easy to understand way. I am a healthcare professional and will be recommending to my colleagues

Excellent and factual

It’s well set out and for the most part interesting and convincing. However, the chapter on gut microbiome contains a view of artificial sweeteners that I think Tim
Spector’s chapter‘bittersweet’ in his book Spoon Fed is more compelling for me (a lay person).

Generally interesting but…
