About this listen
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.

Makes perfect sense!
Don't be put off by the title, I am not overweight but just have an interest in nutrition, health and wellbeing. Heavy or thin, everybody should read this! This book is enlightening, it just makes so much sense! It is clearly explained and easy to understand the 'mechanics' of how our bodies work. The narrator took me a few minutes to get used to, but now I could not imagine another voice presenting it, he is entertaining and expressive. Some of the messages are repeated over and over, but there's a reason for that - they are all things that people probably already know, but obviously ignore/forget. It explains why our forebears all ate more fat and carbs then we "think" or "are told" we should, yet they did not get fat! If I had been battling weight gain for years, I think I would cry tears of joy for the information offered in this book! The statistics are interesting and well presented. Save yourself from more years of failing dieting, read this book!!! Highly recommended for ALL ages.

Worth reading Even by Prfessional Medicos
This book is a little technical in parts but is well worth the ready especially for anyone suffering from weight diabetes or caring for those with these problems - some great tips for young mums as well.

Great book, great narration.
The contents of this book was informative and easy to follow and understand. Some handy him throughout the book made it easy to apply the advice to one’s life. Most especially I enjoyed the narrators voice internation and liveliness when necessary which made the experience even better.

Life changing
Read and reread (listened to over and over) this book several times while undertaking a wholistic change in my lifestyle. 5 weeks in and I can already notice changes in energy and mental clarity - and although weight loss is not significant, body fat reduction is becoming evident. I have also introduced daily morning meditation and rediscovered my love of gardening, which coincidentally have both begun to address my stress and anxiety levels and correct my sleep disorder. I still have a way to go, but at last I’ve found something that works for me. Thanks Jason xo

Very informative!
Really interesting and informative. I enjoyed the way the reader talked. I will try intermittent fasting as it seems like the best way to lose weight.
