Reviews
“Contrary to the goal of pervasive marketing efforts, dietary fat is fundamental for health, disease resistance, longevity, and yes, even weight loss. Dr. Mercola and Dr. DiNicolantonio deftly reveal how the specific fats we choose to eat may well be the most important dietary decision we make in terms of directing our health destiny.”— David Perlmutter, M.D., #1 New York Times best-selling author of Grain Brain and The Grain Brain Whole Life Plan
“If you want to know the real ‘fat facts,’ please read Superfuel by Drs. Mercola and DiNicolantonio! They make a compelling and readable guide to navigate through the often confusing dietary advice regarding the types of fat to include in your diet as well as the ones to avoid like the plague. And spoiler alert: long-chain omega-3 fats from fish oil and other sources, and quality olive oils, are something you need more of, not less of, in your diet daily for perfect heart and brain health. Prepare to be amazed at what you don’t know about why we are so sick. Read this book!”
— Steven R. Gundry, M.D., New York Times best-selling author of The Plant Paradox and The Plant Paradox Cookbook; Medical Director, International Heart and Lung Institute, Palm Springs and Santa Barbara, California
“Superfuel is a fascinating discussion about how much of what we’ve learned about dietary fat is completely wrong. This helps upend much of the low-fat dogma that has dominated nutritional thinking for the last 40 years. This book is a must-read if you are interested in improving your health through diet.”
— Jason Fung, M.D., author of The Obesity Code
“If you would like to know the truth about which fats support health, which ones don’t, and what foods they’re found in, open this book. It’s packed full of vital information for lifelong health.”
— Dr. Frank Lipman, New York Times best-selling author of How to Be Well
“Dr. DiNicolantonio and Dr. Mercola have an incredible wealth of information and insight to explain everything you need to know about the fats that fuel your body. You’ll learn which foods you should eat, which you should avoid, and how you should cook and consume your food for optimal health...physically, mentally and emotionally. Superfuel will help and heal so many people.”
— Drew Manning, New York Times best-selling co-author of Fit2Fat2Fit
“In Superfuel, Drs. DiNicolantonio and Mercola offer a view of dietary fat that’s powerfully perspective-shifting. They have done a deep dive into the best research available and come up with practical, accessible guidance for taking control of your health, starting right now.”
— Dr. Aseem Malhotra, author of The Pioppi Diet Expand reviews
