Sylvia Tara PhD is a biochemist who has worked at the world's largest biotech companies. Yet the thing that compelled her to the research of the past 5 years culminating in her new book was her own struggle with weight and particularly with 'fat'. She realized that with her science knowledge she had the tools to study 'fat', the reasons that we all are affected differently by it. Her book: The Secret Life of Fat: The Science Behind the Body's Least-understood Organ And What it Means For You" is a great and empowering tool, because knowledge is power. Soon Dr. Tara will have an online study to guide those wanting to confront the 'fat' issue in a constructive way. www.thesecretlifeoffat.com
