For years the battle lines have been drawn between two diet camps: the low-carb, high-fat diet fans and those who favour a more vegetarian diet, rich in carbs. So which is right? This groundbreaking book cuts through the controversy to discover a unique method of successfully blending the two.

'The Hybrid Diet is a highly readable, smart and well-reasoned book based on the latest generation of rigorous science. Given the weak state of evidence behind our government's dietary advice, this book is a far better resource than any official guidance for people seeking practical tips, along with the explanatory science on how to lose weight and reverse nutrition-related conditions.'
