About this listen

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 Library section along with the audio.

I wish I had come across this book years ago. It has literally changed my life. I have lost 40 lbs this past year and totally look at food in a new way. Everything is very well explained, and although sometimes repetitive, it gets the message through.

This book changed my life - really!

Good book, an eating way I will try. I preferred listening to the author than reading this one. I couldn’t get into the written book.

Better than reading it!

Dr. Fung challenges conventional wisdom about weight gain and loss, and develops a robust theory of obesity that is data-driven. I found myself engaging in an internal dialogue as I listened, because of the many "facts" that I've cemented in my brain, which are simply not so. Even accepting the new knowledge, it is difficult to stop mentally defending dieting rhetoric that I've known for so long. There are many interesting facets to this theory. Naturally, each reader will tend to be particularly interested in those which have some personal connection. For me, the information pertaining to abdominal fat, stress/ cortisol, fatty liver, and fasting were the real gems. But overall, there was very little that I found uninteresting. I highly recommend this book, and will be interested to read what others have thought.

fascinating

I used the book to coach me through my fast which was extremely helpful. I am going to 3 meals a day with no snacks. Thanks Dr. Jason Fung for your common sense approach to eating properly and insulin education.

Inspiring.
