À propos de cet audio
The international bestseller from award-winning writer Mark Schatzker that reveals how our dysfunctional relationship with food began—and how science is leading us back to healthier living and eating.
For the last fifty years, we have been fighting a losing war on food. We have cut fat, reduced carbs, eliminated sugar, and attempted every conceivable diet only to find that eighty-eight million American adults are prediabetic, more than a hundred million have high blood pressure, and nearly half now qualify as obese. The harder we try to control what we eat, the unhealthier we become. Why?
Mark Schatzker has spent his career traveling the world in search of the answer. Now, in The End of Craving, he poses the profound question: What if the key to nutrition and good health lies not in resisting the primal urge to eat but in understanding its purpose?
Beginning in the mountains of Europe and the fields of the Old South, Schatzker embarks on a quest to uncover the lost art of eating and living well. Along the way, he visits brain scanning laboratories and hog farms, and encounters cultural oddities and scientific paradoxes—northern Italians eat what may be the world’s most delicious cuisine, yet are among the world’s thinnest people; laborers in southern India possess an inborn wisdom to eat their way from sickness to good health. Schatzker reveals how decades of advancements in food technology have turned the brain’s drive to eat against the body, placing us in an unrelenting state of craving. Only by restoring the relationship between nutrition and the pleasure of eating can we hope to lead longer and happier lives.
Combining cutting-edge science and ancient wisdom, The End of Craving is an urgent and radical investigation that “charts a roadmap not just for healthy eating, but for joyous eating, too” (Dan Barber, New York Times bestselling author of The Third Plate).

Difficult to Listen Too
As a professional with a background in nutrition, I approached The End of Craving with great interest, eager to delve into the intricate connections between cravings, our modern food environment, and the biochemical pathways that drive our eating behaviours. The book certainly delivered in terms of intriguing information, offering a deep dive into the science of how our cravings have been shaped by both biology and industry.
However, while the content was often fascinating, the impact of the book was somewhat diluted by the abundance of backstories and narratives. These anecdotes, while occasionally interesting, often seemed to overshadow the core message. Instead of reinforcing the main points, they tended to distract from them, making it challenging to stay focused on the key takeaways. This overabundance of background information could have been streamlined to maintain a sharper, more cohesive narrative.
Additionally, I found that the audiobook experience was marred by the narrator's voice, which I found difficult to listen to for extended periods. The delivery lacked the engaging tone that such a complex and layered subject demands, which further detracted from the overall experience. A more dynamic and expressive narration might have helped to better convey the book's important messages.
In summary, The End of Craving offers valuable insights into the science of cravings and the modern food landscape. However, the book's potential is somewhat hindered by an over reliance on backstories and a narrator whose voice did not enhance the listening experience. For those deeply interested in the subject, it is worth listening to, but be prepared to navigate through some extraneous content to extract the key insights.

Not what you expect.
Lots of good info and stories but this book should have been called “why we crave.”
There’s no end to craving explanation in it until the last chapter. Barely at that.

A lot of detail for nothing
I was very very disappointed in this book. In my opinion it did not deliver what it promised. The author gives so much information and in considerable detail, going on about stories about snakes and pigs etc. He goes on at length about the joy of savouring a small piece of dark chocolate. The bottom line, he says at the end, is that we need to give up processed fake foods and go back to real whole foods. That will end our cravings and bring us back to a balanced enjoyment of foods like the Italians have. They are apparently slim despite what they eat, because they enjoy their food, because it’s real. There was nothing here that I felt helpful towards ending my cravings. There was nothing I didn’t already know and haven’t put into practice without success.
