The book

# Adaptive

_Adaptive_ explores why metabolic health, obesity, and diabetes are not simply matters of willpower, but the result of powerful biological systems shaped for a world that no longer exists. Drawing on evolutionary biology, modern metabolic science, and decades of clinical experience, Dr. Christopher Thompson explains how the body regulates weight, fuel use, hunger, and energy, why these systems can become dysregulated, and why conventional approaches so often fall short.

The book offers a practical framework for understanding metabolic disease and the full range of tools now available to treat it, from nutrition and exercise to medications, surgery, and emerging endoscopic therapies. Its central message is simple: better treatment begins with understanding the biology.

Launching at the end of September.
