PREFACE FOR THE SMARTER SCIENCE OF SLIM BY JONATHAN BAILOR By Theodoros Kelesidis, M.D, Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, & Metabolism, Harvard Medical School Department of Medicine, UCLA School of Medicine
While researching and practicing at the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, & Metabolism at the Harvard Medical School and the UCLA School of Medicine, I would often be asked when there will be a proven prescription for weight loss. The Smarter Science of Slim is that prescription. Jonathan Bailor’s easy-to-understand and engaging style disguises an astonishing amount of otherwise incredibly complex scientific information. You will not realize you are learning so much because you will be so involved in what you are reading. The pages you are holding will change the way you feel and look faster than any pill ever could. It is incredibly rare to find anything as thoroughly researched and carefully analyzed, yet so clearly and engagingly presented in the context of everyday living—and eating. For anyone who has struggled with managing weight or maintaining energy, you do not need pills. You need this book. Having conducted research across four continents, I appreciate Bailor’s meticulous methodology, but it’s what he does with the information that made the book one I will “prescribe” to colleagues, patients, students, family, friends—and you. He points out that in so many cases what scientists have proven in the lab IS NOT how you have been told to eat or exercise. No, this isn’t a conspiracy diatribe; it’s just a smart writer pointing out the disconnect between the science and our lifestyle and then showing how you can eat more food and do less exercise, while improving how you look and feel, once you know and apply the science. Here is a sample of some of what you will discover in The Smarter Science of Slim: Most people can manage to temporarily lose weight via traditional techniques, but Bailor reveals the biology of why these techniques lead to long term weight gain 95% of the time. Bailor then provides a proven way to burn fat long term. With this information, you can avoid “yo-yo’ing” forever. Another one of my personal favorites: Ever notice how more people are members of gyms and how there are more “health” supplements than ever before in human
