Also as a brief pointer at another cool thing in Metabolical, Lustig claims that exercise is useful for weight loss mostly because of its beneficial impact on cell repair/metabolic system repair (something specific about mitochondria?) and not for the calorie deficit it may or may not create.
I consider Lustig’s science to be quite thorough, I like him a lot. The main point against him is that he personally doesn’t look very metabolically healthy, which I would expect of someone who had spent his life investigating and theorising about what influences metabolic health.
