It Deepens the Spiritual Life

The theme of great hunger remains an underlying cause in the study of obesity and depression. INSATIABLE posits—using many authoritative sources—that the human soul loves beauty and desires it, seeking the appeasing fragrances of nature’s beauty (Younghusband, 1921), to quiet the turbulence, at least in the first step. The book’s unique exploration of monasteries and the silence that dwells in them offers a remarkably simple remedy to the reader’s hunger in a rather frenetic world.

It Convincingly Discourages Calorie-Restrictive Diets

U.S. society, since the 1970s, has had a high interest in weight loss as evidenced by the sale of millions of diet books, yet despite this, obesity trends continued to increase. Overall efficacy of caloric-restrictive diets varies between 1-3% when measured over 5 to 7 years after completing the diet. Weight loss diets have clearly failed Americans. Could it be that caloric restrictive diets are actually driving the growth of the obesity epidemic?

It Explores The Historical Origins of Obesity

The book documents the historical origins of the obesity crisis going back as far as the 17th, and 18th centuries, when the cultural celebration of gluttony began among the aristocracies of Europe; it was a celebration of the senses and a lessening of the moral sting of gluttony by relativizing religious morals.

We All Have A Deep Insatiable Hunger

INSATIABLE identifies the obesity epidemic more as a symptom of a much more profound social malaise that nobody wants to talk about. The obesity epidemic, when considered from an epidemiological perspective, is but one epidemic among varied epidemics now sweeping through American society and changing the very fabric of our culture and social norms.

As a nation, we have a deep-rooted and unruly hunger for food that created an obesity epidemic that has brought our healthcare costs to the brink of insolvency. What is driving this hunger? We are spiritual beings that hunger for truth, and this hunger is indeed insatiable. The book is a 15 year investigation into how America can successfully satisfy this unappeasable hunger that needs to be brought into right order if we, as a nation, want to subdue this raging epidemics of chronic diseases and social upheavals now ravaging our national landscape.

This is probably one of the most important books I have read, ever. Full-stop. For those struggling with weight issues — and for those struggling to understand weight issues or how to support those seeking to overcome their weight issues, this book is a God-send. Bissonnette places the locus of the Nation’s chronic obesity in two places. One is in the development and marketing of foodstuffs that create addiction and longing. The other is in the human heart that has hungers food can never fill. The author’s premise is that as one attends to those hungers, obesity can the more successfully be addressed. He writes as both scientist and Catholic believer, and a sense of the sacramentality of life and of food permeates the book. It’s not a fast read, and that, too, I suspect is by design. Fast food, fast consumption of information, fast decisions, fast actions: yes, there’s a place for all of that in life: but not all the time. Put another way, when efficiency becomes the overriding value, everything is off-center. The book will help you re-center your thinking about food by recent wring your thinking about life."
