Description
¿Cuáles son las causas de la obesidad?, ¿por qué las políticas relacionadas con la prevención de esta epidemia no han tenido éxito? Reflexivo y crítico, Salvador Camacho se da a la tarea de refutar los mitos que hay detrás de la grasa corporal, repasando sus aspectos positivos y negativos desde un punto de vista científico, ilustrado con ejemplos de la vida cotidiana. Pone en tela de juicio las teorías sobre el balance calórico, que por años han permeado a las investigaciones de ciencias de la salud, que sugieren tratar el problema de la obesidad y el sobrepeso como una entera responsabilidad de cada individuo, ya que para el autor existe otro origen para estos problemas. Para comprender cabalmente el problema, un concepto clave: el desbalance hormonal. La obesidad y el sobrepeso se abordan desde varias perspectivas: biológica, nutricional, mercadotécnica, gubernamental; cada una de ellas influye en la manera en que se trata estas enfermedades. Cambiar la perspectiva acerca de los tratamientos podría ser una meta, pero hacer conciencia de qué se está haciendo bien y qué se está haciendo mal puede servir como un primer paso.
