Everything you believe about how to lose weight is wrong. Weight gain and obesity are driven by hormones - in everyone - and only by understanding the effects of insulin and insulin resistance can we achieve lasting weight loss.

In this highly listenable and provocative book, Dr. Jason Fung sets out an original, robust theory of obesity that provides startling insights into proper nutrition. In addition to his five basic steps - a set of lifelong habits that will improve your health and control your insulin levels - Dr. Fung explains how to use intermittent fasting to break the cycle of insulin resistance and reach a healthy weight - for good.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

A comprehensive and entertaining presentation of the reasons for the obesity epidemic.

Highly recommended if you or those close to you are affected by any form of metabolic syndrome.

Only thing to nitpick is that there is a lot more time spent on dispelling wrong approaches than establishing precise data on correct ones, and so some descriptions on the latter feel short and rushed.

Overall, I still very much enjoyed reading this, even though I'm not directly affected. The information also helped my neighbor improve his T2 diabetes, and I appreciate the nutritional advice. Totally worth it.

This book is enlightening as it explains the mechanisms of insulin and its resistance along with why certain diets don’t work and what to do instead. Insightful, scientifically thorough, easy to read!! Can absolutely recommend this book, not only to people who suffer from obesity.

Ein wirklich ausgezeichnetes (Hör)buch rund um das Thema der Ernährung. Es wird mit vielen Mythen aufgeräumt und alle Aussagen sind wissenschaftlich fundiert und recherchierter. Nicht nur interessant für Diabetiker oder Personen die abnehmen wollen sondern auch für jeden, der sich bewusst und richtig (zur richtigen Zeit) ernähren will und konkrete Hilfestellungen und Tipps inkl. Erklärung haben möchte. Ich dann den Titel ohne Einschränkung empfehlen!

Fakenreich, fundiert und unterhaltsam

Another Briliant book by Jason Fung M.D. This book is amazing in explaining why diets don't work, why we gane weight and the solution how to lose weight. It is so simple and yet Briliant I can't find any flaws in his theories. I recommend it to everyone who is confused about all the diets and nutrition plans out there, or for someone who tried and failed one time too many. This book is the answer to our tears and prayers for healthy and lean self.

Briliant!
