About this listen

Our relationship with food is broken, but Dr Emma Beckett is here to help us repair it. This is not a diet audiobook, but it is an audiobook about your diet, your life and how food fits into it all.

Dr Emma Beckett has spent more than 15 years studying food and how it interacts with our bodies. In this fun, informative audiobook, she takes her extensive research qualifications and experience and applies them to our everyday lives in her sassy and straightforward style. She shows us how and why food choices, eating and biology are not as simple as diet culture suggests.

Part manual, part memoir, part manifesto, You Are More Than What You Eat puts the person back at the heart of nutrition. Informed by a scientific evidence base, this is the perfect antidote to the misinformation surrounding the weight loss and diet industry. This audiobook will teach you to embrace the complexity of your body and your life, reject the lure of simple slogans and heal your relationship with food.

Critic Reviews

'Dr. Beckett, an exceptionally qualified nutrition researcher, challenges us to rethink everything we know about diet and health. Her empowering message helps us shed stress and guilt around food and embrace complexity, thus supporting – paradoxically – a simpler and more joyful approach to eating.' (Felice Jacka, Professor of Nutritional Psychiatry, Director of the Food & Mood Centre at Deakin University)
'An empowering and delightful demolition of diet culture. A guide to modern life.' (Dr Liz Allen, author of The Future of Us)
'Emma cuts through the nutritional overwhelm, the noise, the B.S and offers a fresh take on food and eating. She reminds us in her sassy, trademark style that there is no perfect food, eating plan, diet or set of rules and regimes.' (Felicity Harley, host of Healthy-ish)
'Emma’s passion for science communication and No BS nutrition straddles the space between educating and empowering, helping readers cut through the clutter of a notoriously noisy space. She brings to this book the same thing she brings to her interactions: empathy, evidence, common sense – all in a great frock, I’m sure!' (Alice Zaslavsky, award-winning author and food literacy advocate)

Excellent information and advice

As someone with a lifelong interest in food science and nutrition as well as the social and cultural aspects of food, I am so impressed with Dr Bennett’s thorough explanation of the problems of health and diet culture. Her compassionate and useful suggestions for confronting these and moving towards a kinder and healthier relationship to food and to each other with all our differences, are spot on. I will be recommending this book widely.
