The Teflon diet is one of the latest trends in the nutritional jungle. With its catchy metaphor of "non-stick calories," it has gained enormous attention on social media in a very short time. But what is really behind it? Is it a groundbreaking innovation-or just another chapter in the long history of seductive diet myths?
This book offers the first comprehensive scientific and critical examination of the Teflon diet. It sheds light on the physiological claims, reviews the existing studies, discusses the health benefits and risks, and places the diet in the context of modern nutritional trends. It addresses not only metabolic processes, hormones, and microbiomes, but also social, economic, and legal aspects.
How plausible is the idea of "non-stick calories" really? Why are simple images often more effective than complex facts? And what lessons can consumers, doctors, and nutritionists learn from this?
An indispensable guide for anyone who wants to understand why diets come and go-and what remains when the metaphors fade.
