Presented by the Faculty of Kinesiology and Physical Education (KPE), U of T alumni are invited to an inspiring virtual event on Monday, October 20 featuring New York Times Bestselling author (and U of T alum) Harley Pasternak. Join us for a compelling conversation moderated by Professor Ira Jacobs (Professor, Exercise Physiology - KPE and Director, Tanenbaum Institute for Science in Sport) on Harley’s latest book The Carb Reset.

This book debunks diet myths and redefines healthy eating by showing how carbs can play a strategic role in weight loss and fat management. Pasternak introduces his PATH framework to guide portion control and balance, while offering science-backed explanations, 50 quick-prep recipes, and a two-week meal plan (with vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options). This empowering, no-deprivation approach helps readers reset their relationship with food, burn fat more efficiently, and sustain healthier habits for life.

Don’t miss this rare chance to hear directly from Harley Pasternak, one of today’s most sought-after health and fitness experts, as he shares practical, science-based insights from The Carb Reset.

This virtual event will take place on Zoom starting at 6:00pm (EDT) and the event link will be shared with registrants closer to the event date.
