More than a recipe book, it comes with bonus material including: A guide to stocking your pantry with the right foods (and ditching the wrong foods); Fung’s easy-to-understand explainers on how weight gain and weight loss really work; intermittent fasting FAQs and best practices; and meal plans for 16-hour, 24-hour, and 36-hour fasts. In other words, The Obesity Code Cookbook will not only show you what to eat, but also when to eat it—and why. But eating this way doesn’t have to bland. The Obesity Code Cookbook’s many delicious comfort foods include: Hearty breakfasts like the Everyday Omelette and Coconut Pancakes; Flavorful vegetable mains like Roasted Cauliflower with Turmeric and Tahini and spicy Thai Vegetable Curry Scrumptious seafood such as Scallops with Prosciutto and Chili Garlic Shrimp Meat-forward mains such as Gruyere Meat Loaf, Pork Belly with Star Anise, Roast Chicken Thighs with Lemon and Tea-Braised Duck with Fennel And don’t forget about desserts and snacks: Nut Bars with Chocolate Drizzle, Almond Fig Cake, and Walnut Power Balls are just a few of the delights you’ll enjoy while eating your way to a healthier, better you.

Download or read book Summary Study Guide The Obesity Code written by Lee Tang and published by LMT Press. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everything you believe about how to lose weight is wrong. This book is a summary of “The Obesity Code: Unlocking the Secrets of Weight Loss” by Jason Fung, MD. Most “Eat Less, Move More” programs failed to achieve long-term weight loss because “calorie in versus calorie out” is not the only factor that causes obesity. Obesity is a multifactorial disease. We need a coherent theory to understand how all its factors fit together. This complete summary of Dr. Jason Fung’s book provides one such coherent framework that can account for most of what we know about the real causes of obesity. It lays out the root cause of obesity and diabetes is hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance, and the cure is reducing overall endogenous insulin production/secretion through manipulation of: * When to eat—practice intermittent fasting. * What to eat—whole foods rather than processed foods. * Avoid insulin spiking foods—sugars/processed carbohydrates/even protein. If you want to reverse type 2 diabetes and treat obesity, read and apply what you learn from this book. This guide includes: * Book Summary—helps you understand the key concepts. * Online Videos—cover the concepts in more depth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FROM NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR DR. JASON FUNG • “The doctor who invented intermittent fasting.” —The Daily Mail “Dr. Fung reveals how [type 2 diabetes] can be prevented and also reversed using natural dietary methods instead of medications … This is an important and timely book. Highly recommended.” —Dr. Mark Hyman, author of The Pegan Diet “Dr. Jason Fung has done it again. … Get this book!” —Dr. Steven R. Gundry, author of The Plant Paradox Everything you believe about treating type 2 diabetes is wrong.

But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this groundbreaking book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible.

The only way to treat type 2 diabetes effectively, he argues, is proper dieting and intermittent fasting—not medication. “The Diabetes Code is unabashedly provocative yet practical ... a clear blueprint for everyone to take control of their blood sugar, their health, and their lives.”—Dr. Will Cole, author of Intuitive Fasting

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summary of The Obesity Code In the book The Obesity Code: Unlocking the Secrets of Weight Loss, Jason Fung chronicles the ballooning of the obesity epidemic from the 1970s to date and proposes a hormonal theory of obesity that sheds light on obesity as a hormonal imbalance disorder rather than a caloric imbalance disorder. He argues that conventional advice to eat less and move more fails because it ignores the multifactorial nature of obesity, and because the body has an efficient homeostatic mechanism that moderates changes in caloric intake and expenditure to maintain a set weight. In his view, obesity is a multifactorial disease with carbohydrates, calories, sugar, and insulin resistance converging to create the hormonal imbalances that lead to weight gain. He identifies excessive insulin, which is stimulated by persistently high levels of glucose, as the ultimate cause of obesity. Fung contends that dieters fail because they regard meal portions and exercise routines with hawk-eyed scrutiny while the real culprits of obesity—meal content and timing—go unaddressed. He proposes a combination of a diet low in sugar and processed foods and intermittent fasting to limit insulin spikes, reduce insulin levels and, consequently, lower weight.
