New York Times best-selling author Dr. Joseph Mercola teams up with cardiovascular expert Dr. James J. DiNicolantonio to cut through the confusion about how dietary fats affect our bodies—and set the record straight on how to eat for optimal health.

New York Times best-selling author Dr. Joseph Mercola collaborates with Dr. James J. DiNicolantonio, an internationally known and respected scientist who has spent nearly a decade researching the effects of different fats on the body. Superfuel aims to clarify which fats support health, which ones don't, and what foods they're found in—often the opposite of what most people think!

Topics include:

  • The optimal ratio of omega-3 to omega-6
  • Foods that resolve inflammation and increase longevity
  • Supplemental fats such as fish oil, krill oil, and flax oil—what to take and how to choose
  • Which oils you should cook with, and why
  • Why the very foods and oils you've been told are healthy may be keeping you from losing weight

Drawing on Dr. DiNicolantonio's research at Saint Luke's Mid America Heart Institute, as well as hundreds of ground-breaking studies, this book provides insights into dietary fats such as coconut oil, butter, cream, olive oil, fish oil, and vegetable oils. Learn which fats are beneficial for weight loss and which ones might cause weight gain.

You will discover which foods you should eat for lifelong health and slimness, and learn how to cook and consume these foods for optimal health and longevity.
