BIG FAT LIES - IS YOUR GOVERNMENT MAKING YOU FAT?

New Book by Hannah Sutter Questions Central Tenets of Dieting

OXFORD, England, February 17, 2010 - "After reading BIG FAT LIES you will never trust the government again"
- Dr John Briffa

In a hard-hitting new book 'BIG FAT LIES - IS YOUR GOVERNMENT MAKING YOU
FAT?', Hannah Sutter turns the analytical eye of a lawyer onto the facts and
myths of obesity, health and diet.

The proportion of men and women classed as obese has risen steeply in
recent years. However, there has been no particular increase in the
number of people who are overweight, and calorie intake has generally
decreased. So we are eating less but obesity has increased. What's going on?

Lawyer and diet expert Hannah Sutter exposes lies, misinformation and
distortion in the basic health guidelines promoted by the government, the
NHS, the Food Standards Agency and other esteemed 'expert' authorities. From
the calorie -counting and exercise myths to the food pyramid, ketosis and BMI
misinformation, Sutter uncovers a series of highly disturbing fictions
that underpin government health policy throughout the world.

She calls into question received wisdom on the central tenets of health
policy with regards to diet and looks at who is advising us and what they
are saying, before concluding that we are all being misled. It is the
ultimate questioning of the mantra: eat less, do more, lose weight.

Hannah Sutter had an extremely successful career in the City as a
corporate lawyer, where her relentless pursuit of the truth saved her
clients staggering sums of money. Sutter's switch to nutrition was fuelled by
this passion for integrity of argument and proposition. After watching two
fat men get thin in a way that was simply incompatible with commonly accepted
'expert' dietary advice, she was compelled to apply her formidable
forensic skills to discovering why. Sutter now runs Go Lower, a realistic,
sustainable, healthy inch-loss programme dedicated to good nutrition.

Sutter is an impassioned and experienced speaker and is available for
interview.
