About this listen
The creator of The Fat-Burning Man Show shares his revolutionary Paleo-inspired weight-loss program
Every month, half a million visitors download The Fat-Burning Man Show, eager to learn the secret of Abel James’s incredible weight-loss success. Growing up on a defunct farm in the backwoods of New Hampshire, James had easy access to a host of natural foods that a backyard garden could provide: eggs, fresh produce, and real butter. But as he got older, he started eating a "modern diet" of processed foods, and by his early twenties, James found himself with high blood pressure, insomnia, acne, digestive problems, and love handles. Following the typical dieting advice of “eat less, exercise more,” and despite running thirty miles a week and nibbling tasteless, low-fat, low-calorie food, his health only worsened as his waistline expanded.
In an effort to gain control of his health, James dug deep into nutrition research and discovered that everything he’d been told about low-calorie eating was wrong. He realized that our bodies are wired to eat luxuriously—and burn fat—as long as we’re eating real, natural foods that are grown on a farm and not in a factory. Incredibly, after just a few days of eating the most delicious "wild" foods that were rich in fat and fiber, James’s health problems began to disappear. And after forty days—and radically cutting back his exercise routine—he had lost twenty pounds.
The Wild Diet is the book James’s hundreds of thousands of fans have been clamoring for. At a time when our collective health is failing, James sounds a clarion call to announce that good health doesn’t live in a pill, exercise program, or soul-crushing diet. The secret is simply getting back to our wild roots and eating the way we have for centuries.
Includes a bonus PDF of meals and recipes from the book.

Critic reviews
"A word of caution: Everything you think you know about diet and exercise is probably wrong. It’s time to change your relationship to fat, whole grains, sugar, the pizza delivery guy, and even your treadmill. The Wild Diet flies in the face of the outdated advice touted by health and wellness 'experts', and gives you real-life strategies to lose fat and get fit as quickly as possible. In a sea of marketing hype, Abel James is a powerful and authentic voice that speaks the truth." (Jonathan Bailor, New York Times best-selling author of The Calorie Myth)
"If you’ve been yo-yo dieting and surviving on prepackaged 'health foods' with little or no results, you owe it to yourself to read The Wild Diet. Abel James shows you how to optimize your workout, diet, and habits to take your health back into your own hands. Abel rocks a chiseled 6 pack and makes it look easy. As the owner of a 1-pack, I marvel at his lean body mass!" (Sara Gottfried, MD, New York Times best-selling author of The Hormone Cure)
"In The Wild Diet, Abel shatters conventional wisdom and gives us the truth about what it takes to be lean and healthy without obsessing about what we eat. There's a reason Abel’s Fat Burning Man show has become #1 in 8 countries and I have no doubt that The Wild Diet will be just as well received. Abel’s message is simple, pragmatic, and can get you lasting results in less time and with less effort than you’d probably expect." (Yuri Elkaim, New York Times best-selling author of The All-Day Energy Diet)

An absolute blast
Where does The Wild Diet rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
It's one of the most entertaining and liberating diet books I've ever read, fun, inspiring and overall insightful. I just felt freed from every dogma and preconception about diet and what I should eat, and accept that being closer to nature and ultimately having a more holistic approach to health it's what does make a difference. From a long time vegan who rediscovered ethical, healthy and wild meat, I cannot recommend it enough!
What does Abel James bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
I am just soooooo used to Abel's voice from his podcast I highly appreciate him spending the time to record these 6h+ Thanks Abel!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, totally, I actually almost did as I went out for about 4 walks in 3 days - I am pretty sure that contributed to the leaner physique I developed after listening to the book *wink*

Great philosophy, content and voice!
Abel talks like he has a masters degree from the University of Common Sense when it comes to food. He gives great tips on how to buy and make the food our bodies are designed to eat.
We need more Abel James out there spreading this message.

Little new under the sun.
Although you are not going to find a new idea in this book it is a really good distillation of modern thinking on the lower carb, moderate protein, higher fat lifestyle.
The narrator is excellent. Sometimes, American narrators can sound unattractive to my British reader, but not here. The narrator's voice is attractive and engaging. It was one of the things that kept me listening.
Well worth the credit spent.
