The Carb Trap

Norwegian title: Karbofellen

In The Carb Trap, Pål Branæs, a specialist in general medicine, addresses some of the things he encounters most frequently in the doctor’s office. His patients struggle with obesity and loss of energy, in addition to a number of other lifestyle ailments which lead to a poor quality of life. This stops people from doing what they want and create resentment.

We are witnessing a global pandemic of lifestyle diseases and ailments, according to Branæs. Difficulty maintaining weight, headaches, digestive problems, low mood and sleep problems are common complaints. This is all brought about by consuming more and more carbohydrates. Carbohydrate intolerance/insulin resistance has become increasingly widespread. It is a precursor to diabetes, and Branæs thinks we need to talk more about this condition.

In this book, The Carb Trap, you will learn to understand how carbohydrates take control of you, and how you can take the necessary steps to improve your health. You will also see that dietary changes not only affect weight and energy levels but can also reduce the risk of serious lifestyle diseases in the future.
