À propos de cet audio
We are in the midst of an obesity epidemic, but despite being inundated with diet advice we are only getting fatter. We count calories and exercise regularly, yet still the pounds won't budge. Why?
In this highly enjoyable and provocative book, Dr Jason Fung sets out a groundbreaking new theory: that obesity is caused by our hormones rather than a lack of self-control.
He reveals that overproduction of insulin in the body is the root cause of obesity and obesity-related illnesses including type 2 diabetes and offers robust scientific evidence that reversing insulin resistance is the only way to lose weight in the long term.
It turns out that when we eat is just as important as what we eat, so in addition to his five basic steps - a set of lifelong eating 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.

Today, most doctors, dietitians, and even diabetes specialists consider type 2 diabetes to be a chronic and progressive disease - a life sentence with no possibility of parole. But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this paradigm-shifting book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible. Writing with clear, persuasive language, he explains why conventional treatments that rely on insulin or other blood-glucose-lowering drugs can actually exacerbate the problem, leading to significant weight gain and even heart disease.

Histoire
We all know the dangers of sugar and salt: but the danger attributed to the second white crystal has more to do with getting too little of it, not too much. Too little salt can shift the body into semi-starvation mode, causing insulin resistance, and may even cause twice as much fat to be absorbed for every gram that's consumed. Too little salt in certain populations can also actually increase blood pressure as well as resting heart rate.

In recent years, intermittent fasting - restricting calorie intake for a set number of hours or days - has become an increasingly popular diet strategy. While some in the medical community initially dismissed the idea as a dangerous fad, recent research not only validates the safety of fasting for weight loss but also offers compelling evidence of wide-ranging health benefits, from reversal of diabetes and other metabolic disorders to enhanced cognitive function and increased longevity.

By addressing its root causes we can not only increase our health span and live longer but prevent and reverse the diseases of aging—including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and dementia.

Based on 20 years of investigative reporting and interviews with 100 practicing physicians who embrace the keto lifetstyle as the best prescription for their patients' health, Taubes' book puts the ketogenic diet movement in the necessary historical and scientific perspective. It makes clear the vital misconceptions in how we've come to think about obesity and diet (no, people do not become fat simply because they eat too much; hormones play the critical role) and uses the collected clinical experience of the medical community to provide essential practical advice.

Histoire
Leading health blogger Jimmy Moore and researcher and internist Dr. Eric C. Westman join forces again to explain the powerful therapeutic effects of a ketogenic diet—one that combines a customized carbohydrate restriction, moderation of protein intake, and real food-based fats—which is emerging in the scientific literature as a means for improving a wide range of diseases, from Type 2 diabetes to Alzheimer's and more. Simply eating a low-carb diet alone isn't enough, and Moore and Westman tell you why. Have you looked at a low-carb diet simply as a means to lose weight? What if you learned that combining a low-carb nutritional approach with a high fat intake produces a powerful therapeutic effect on a wide variety of health conditions that most people think requires medication to control? That’s what Keto Clarity is all about. Jimmy Moore, a leading low-carb diet blogger and podcaster, has reunited with his Cholesterol Clarity co-author Dr. Eric C. Westman, a practicing internist and low-carb diet researcher, to bring you the crystal-clear information you need to understand what a ketogenic diet is and why it may be the missing element in your pursuit of optimal health. This book includes exclusive interviews from twenty of the world's foremost authorities from various fields bringing their depth of expertise and experience using this nutritional approach. Moore and Westman explain why ketosis is normal and how this nutritional approach is being used therapeutically by many medical professionals. You will find a step-by-step guide to help you produce more ketones and track your progress, real life success stories, and more. The solid evidence for nutritional ketosis in dealing with many of the chronic health problems of our day is presented, including but not limited to: epilepsy, Type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, polycystic ovarian syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome.

We say some people march to the beat of a different drummer. But implicit in this cliché is that the rest of us march to the same beat. We sleepwalk through life, find ourselves on well-worn paths that were never ours to walk, and become a silent extra. Extraordinary people carve their own paths as leaders and creators. They think and act with genuine independence. They stand out from the crowd because they embody their own shape and color. We call these people geniuses—as if they’re another breed. But genius isn’t for a special few. It can be cultivated. This book will show you how.

Most useful book on obesity causes
Doctor Jason Fung’s book is simply revolutionary in many ways. He is part of a determined, intelligent, and standing with integrity group of medical professionals who are not afraid to publish true facts about so called “nutrition science” that is largely responsible for today’s epidemic of diabetis,obesity and plethora of related metabolic illnesses. My deep respect to this doctor for all amazing work he is doing that benefits anyone who seeks to grow and maintain their health and to age well.

Great Information
Dr Fung provides great information on why diets don't work longer term. He also explains the relationship between weight gain and insulin and how fasting addresses the shortcomings of other diets. The narration really the material down. Excessive inflection and pronunciation errors often distracting from interesting information.

Great....but...
Let me start with the pluses. This book does a great job of explaining the science behind obesity. It’s very comprehensive without becoming too technical. If you are someone that likes to understand the “why”, you’ll really appreciate the information contained within.
The author has a sense of humour and is practical about what people realistically can and will do. So many weight loss books are so impossible that you know from the start you’ll never be able to achieve the perfection they profess. The author treats you like a human being with a social life, preferences, a job, kids, etc and not like a superhuman robot.
If I’m being picky, I would say that at times I was thinking “okay, I get it, let’s move on”, but overall the author does a great job of explaining some complex issues. He cites ample peer reviewed, quality scientific studies to back up his opinions and methods.
The biggest downside for me was that the narrator frequently refers to tables and charts that just aren’t available to the audiobook listener. Most of the time I was okay without them, but there were a few that it would have been nice to get the info from. The narrator refers to them but never goes over them.
He does read the appendix at the end, that include a recipe, an FAQ, etc. Some of those might be nice to have on an actual document you can come back to, but at least he read them for the audience so you can take notes if needed.
I am not someone who jumps on every fad, or has tried a million diets. I’ve always been an everything in moderation kind of person. However, this book has given me a lot of useful information that I feel well equipped to try. The author provides plenty of solid evidence for fasting and it has changed my mind about this method. I think it’s a great read for anyone who is overweight or has a loved one that is. Just from an understanding point of view you’ll feel better about being overweight. There is no guilt or shame placed on you for being a human who happens to be overweight (or know someone that is).
As I stated earlier, there are times when you feel a little clubbed over the head and wish it could move along faster but the author was engaging and very practical in his advice.

Excellent book.
This book has changed the perceptions of obesity and weight loss, also highlights the ever changing scientific recommendations. Yesterday's ones are not valid today, today's findings may be disproved on coming days.
This book gives lots of tips on obesity control.
Good read.
