We get fat when we consume more calories than we burn, leading to excess energy being stored as fat in our bodies. "Why We Get Fat" by Gary Taubes argues that the main cause of weight gain is not simply overeating or lack of exercise, but rather the consumption of carbohydrates, especially refined sugars and grains, which spike insulin levels and promote fat storage. Taubes suggests that reducing carbohydrate intake and focusing on whole foods can help prevent weight gain and promote overall health.
