About this deal

I managed to get halfway through before realising I was arguing outloud with her 'science based' claims with no credible, non biased evidence to back up her sweeping statements.

I do want to point out there were a few things which I did think could be seen as healthy diet culture but beside that it was a great book. In this book, Davinia breaks down how best to optimise ALL our hormones and delves into how they can impact our weight, focus, sleep and energy. It's very trendy, sweary, social media junky type persona from the author but some people might like that. There's nothing really new in the book either, the information can be sought from much better written and discussed sources so I'd personally suggest you go elsewhere and save your money.This means it's not only insulting and disrespectful to anyone following this lifestyle for ethical, religious etc beliefs but it also makes this book useless if you are plantbased/vegan because you'll get very little information to support your chosen lifestyle since she simply isn't open to helping you and has some warped hatred of you. Loved listening to how Davina told her story and how she explained everything 😁absolutely brilliant!

If you didn't already know that sugar, alcohol and ultra processed foods are bad for you, you may find this book enlightening. until it comes to her personal hatred of vegans where she thinks its then OK to ditch the science and facts and uses it as a platform to say how much she hates vegans, plantbased diets etc with alot of claims based on her prejudiced and misunderstandings, and not actually science and facts.

The reason I'm giving it a one star however, is that she begins with going on about how she only wants science facts, everything about science and facts, only the science and facts. This book is written in a way that makes the information easily makes sense without loads of technical jargon. As a desperate 54 year old menopausal, overweight , sleep deprived nightmare, never knowing where to start with any of it, I finally feel like there's light at the end of the tunnel. So glad I had this on audible because there's so many words that I didn't particularly understand that I'd have been reading over and over to try and get them to sink in.

The recommendation throughout seems to be that we should be taking lots (and LOTS) of vitamin and mineral supplements. Poorly written and even more poorly narrated with mispronunciations that I initially found amusing but quickly irritating. This book has given me so much information, is so relatable, and Davinia makes it so easy to understand. There is a particular focus on the fact that this is not a one-size-fits-all solution, which I really appreciate.

I think the actual real book would be better for you to go back and check facts, use as reference material and cross reference. Everyone’s entitled to what works for their body, but I personally think not biting anything until the evening is extremely unhealthy and can ruin your relationship with food. Particularly fascinating learning about ingredients in food and even ‘healthy bars’ and vegan burgers which are super anti inflammatory and not great for you.
