In Saturated Facts, TikTok star Dr Idz, an NHS medic with a degree in nutritional research, debunks the myths that often go unchecked on social media and explores the cutting-edge science around some of the most exciting topics in diet and health, including:

- The link between nutrition and our mental wellbeing

- The science behind gut health and how our gut acts as our 'second brain'

- The benefits and disadvantages of the most popular diets such as keto, fasting and vegan

Dr Idz is on a mission to provide you with scientifically accurate information to make the best decisions about your health, cutting through the noise so you can eat better, feel good and live longer.

Much needed facts

It’s nice to read a research based book stating facts and addressing fads that do more damage than good. Thanks doc

Clear and concise info on how to wade through a sea of health misinformation

The only negative I have is that there wasn’t more. I certainly hope Dr Idz has a sequel in the works as there are far more myths to debunk and more information that can be imparted.

this book really provides a broad understanding of nutrition and its complexity. I thoroughly enjoyed it

No BS information

Non biased, all claims are high evidence based, very easy to understand , well explained topics in every chapter

Simple but full of good relevant information

I love the simplistic approach with which Dr Idz debunked common missinformation. Both the book and the audiobook are easy to follow and understand. Dr Idz shows how, with simpe logic, we can discern between facts and social media fiction.
