Gary Taubes

Taubes in 2012 Gary Taubes (born April 30, 1956) is an American journalist, writer, and low-carbohydrate / high-fat (LCHF) diet advocate. His central claim is that carbohydrates, especially sugar and high-fructose corn syrup, overstimulate the secretion of insulin, causing the body to store fat in fat cells and the liver, and that it is primarily a high level of dietary carbohydrate consumption that accounts for obesity and other metabolic syndrome conditions. He is the author of ''Nobel Dreams'' (1987); ''Bad Science: The Short Life and Weird Times of Cold Fusion'' (1993); ''Good Calories, Bad Calories'' (2007), titled ''The Diet Delusion'' (2008) in the UK and Australia; ''Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It'' (2010); ''The Case Against Sugar'' (2016); and ''The Case for Keto: Rethinking Weight Control and the Science and Practice of Low-Carb/High-Fat Eating'' (2020). Taubes's work often goes against accepted scientific, governmental, and popular tenets such as that obesity is caused by eating too much and exercising too little and that excessive consumption of fat, especially saturated fat in animal products, leads to cardiovascular disease.
