I tried reading it on kindle, but found it dry treadmill reading. It wasn't available on audible, so I sorta forgot about it. It's now on audible AND on sale.

    It's not. boo.
    It's narrated by Brian Nishii.
    Sounds like this:

    I'm about half way through the audio now.
    I'm getting used to him not sounding like Fung.
    I was just getting used to him mis-pronouncing satiety, and then suddenly he learned how to say it.

    Overall, I'm glad I bought the audio.

    LOL, bear with me!!!

    Today he can still say satiety, but he's lost "macronutrient" and "glycogen". I'll do a review with amazon/audible, but MAN this is frustrating. It's hard to think of" DOCTOR Fung" mispronouncing science-y words right and left.
    Today "he" couldn't say "macronutrient" (macro nooshient)
    Another one today "he" couldn't say was mammography. I find myself reviewing what I listened to on the kindle version at night just to get rid of the dissonance!

    I guess I'd say: SKIP this audio version. SHEESH!
