Paperback. Condition: New. A New Scientist Best Book of 2020 How is it that a baboon and a blob of slime mould instinctively know what to eat for optimal health, balancing their protein, fat and carb intake in perfect proportions? In new, groundbreaking research that is transforming our understanding of nutrition, animals from locusts to lions and yes, humans too, demonstrate the remarkable science behind appetite. Appetite communicates the body's nutritional needs to the brain, and eating in accordance with your body's demands, like the animals, should ensure optimal health, but the modern fast food world wreaks havoc on this evolutionarily honed system. In several landmark studies, Raubenheimer and Simpson prove that appetite can be hacked - we can eat for optimal health, for increased fertility or for a longer lifespan. Understanding the science of the appetite offers tremendous power in shaping our bodies and controlling our lives. ** Previously published as Eat Like the Animals **.…

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. ¿Cómo es que un mandril y una gota de moho saben instintivamente qué comer para equilibrar su consumo de proteínas, grasas y carbohidratos en proporciones perfectas y gozar de buena salud? El apetito comunica las necesidades nutricionales del organismo al cerebro, y comer de acuerdo con sus demandas, como hacen los animales, debería garantizar una salud óptima en los seres humanos. Antaño nuestros ancestros fueron capaces de intuir qué alimentos necesitaba su cuerpo y en qué proporciones, y gracias a ello comían los adecuados en las cantidades correctas. Vivían en una perfecta armonía nutricional, pero el mundo moderno de la comida rápida ha causado estragos en este sistema evolutivamente perfeccionado. ¿Cuándo y por qué perdimos esta capacidad y, lo más importante, cómo podemos recobrarla? Raubenheimer y Simpson, tras desarrollar varios estudios científicos, nos demuestran en Come como los animales que el apetito es moldeable: es posible comer para tener una salud óptima, aumentar la fertilidad o prolongar la vida. Comprender la ciencia del apetito ofrece un poder formidable para sanar nuestro cuerpo y llevar el control de nuestra vida. «Este libro propone una explicación original y convincente de por qué aumentamos de peso en el entorno alimentario sobreprocesado de hoy. Los biólogos Raubenheimer y Simpson utilizan su profundo conocimiento sobre fisiología, evolución y comportamiento alimentario de los animales e insectos para construir una hipótesis concluyente: compartimos con ellos un apetito innato por las proteínas que regula lo que comemos». MARION NESTLE, autora de What to eat «¡Este libro es excepcional! Proporciona el primer marco teórico completo para analizar los roles de la nutrición desde la ecología y la evolución hasta la conservación y la salud humana. Jamás había leído un libro como este». BERNARD J. CRESPI, Universidad Simon Fraser «Sorprendentemente bien escrito. . . El lenguaje claro y los ejemplos esclarecedores permiten que cualquiera que tenga interés en la biología se sorprenda con las enormes implicaciones de la naturaleza de la nutrición». American Journal of Human Biology *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente. No aceptamos pedidos con destino a Ceuta y Melilla.…

Hardback. Condition: New. Nutrition has long been considered more the domain of medicine and agriculture than of the biological sciences, yet it touches and shapes all aspects of the natural world. The need for nutrients determines whether wild animals thrive, how populations evolve and decline, and how ecological communities are structured. The Nature of Nutrition is the first book to address nutrition's enormously complex role in biology, both at the level of individual organisms and in their broader ecological interactions. Stephen Simpson and David Raubenheimer provide a comprehensive theoretical approach to the analysis of nutrition--the Geometric Framework. They show how it can help us to understand the links between nutrition and the biology of individual animals, including the physiological mechanisms that determine the nutritional interactions of the animal with its environment, and the consequences of these interactions in terms of health, immune responses, and lifespan. Simpson and Raubenheimer explain how these effects translate into the collective behavior of groups and societies, and in turn influence food webs and the structure of ecosystems.Then they demonstrate how the Geometric Framework can be used to tackle issues in applied nutrition, such as the problem of optimizing diets for livestock and endangered species, and how it can also help to address the epidemic of human obesity and metabolic disease Drawing on a wealth of examples from slime molds to humans, The Nature of Nutrition has important applications in ecology, evolution, and physiology, and offers promising solutions for human health, conservation, and agriculture.…
