‘A new body’, a volume by Pier Luigi Rossi on healthy fat

“Nature gave us body fat but our wrong behavior turned the gift into disease. It is up to us to experience our body fat as a source of health and longevity; the future is within us ”. This is what is explained and deepened in the book ‘A new body, know your healthy fat and live healthily (and for a long time)’, written by Pier Luigi Rossi, doctor and university professor, specialist in Food Science and in Hygiene and Preventive Medicine, published by Aboca Edizioni. Body fat marks our life from birth and accompanies us throughout our existence, conditioning energy, health, longevity, aesthetic image. What is essential to know is that everyone has their own fat because everyone has their own DNA, but above all that not all body fat is harmful. For a long time, fat has been considered an inert seat of energy conservation, an accumulation to be ‘destroyed’ in order to be beautiful and get back in shape. This approach is now out of date. Current scientific research recognizes adipose tissue a positive and protective role in both women and men. Healthy fat is the cradle of stem cells, mother cells necessary for the continuous renewal of our organs, and it is also the source of the structural, aesthetic and functional youth of the entire human organism. We are the ones who transform fat into an aesthetic and functional pathology, because we do not know and do not appreciate this gift that Nature has given us and which allows us to have biochemical energy always available, even when the availability of food varies. The objective of this book is to guide the reader on a path of knowledge to be able to avoid an excess of fat, as well as its harmful reduction, to live in metabolic, hormonal and immune health. Through the molecular method of conscious nutrition we are able to carry out a metabolic reprogramming, lose weight and enhance our healthy fat, to live healthily and achieve both aesthetic and functional longevity, avoiding cognitive-cerebral decay.
