A reader –
Restored me to sanity doing what I used to do instinctively
This is the best book of its kind on the market, and the only one you need to read if you want to understand how you can lose weight safely and naturally, reverse a number of metabolic conditions without drugs, and improve your overall health.There are a lot of excellent books on the toxicity of sugar, refined carbohydrates and processed foods, as well as books that explain the role of insulin in a variety of metabolic disorders. I have been reading and enjoying lots of them recently. But none of the others offer the simplest and most obvious solution to our exploding epidemics of obesity, diabetes, metabolic syndrome and related conditions. The solution is as old as the human race itself: intermittent fasting.This is something I did instinctively years ago. Dr. Fung’s combination of solid science and plain old-fashioned common sense confirms the wisdom of what I instinctively did for many years: eating very sparingly, sometimes only once a day or not at all if I wasn’t hungry. At 5’8″, I maintained a healthy weight of 125 pounds for many years this way, and my doctors all encouraged me to keep doing whatever I was doing to maintain this weight. It was everyone else who steered me in the wrong direction. (More on that in a moment.) I had plenty of energy, felt wonderful and looked great. I wasn’t skinny by any means. I had enough subcutaneous fat to lend some roundness to my silhouette and keep all my systems functioning normally. I just didn’t have any visceral fat in my belly or internal organs.Fast-forward a few decades, and the picture changes dramatically. Within the past 10 years, I have gained 65 POUNDS, much of it in the form of the deadly visceral fat that gathers around the waistline and internal organs. I can remember the exact point in time a few years ago when I could actually FEEL the fat building up in my stomach. I felt constantly congested, bloated and uncomfortable. Yet I was also constantly hungry.More significantly, routine tests have begun to show some alarming signs. In particular, my formerly low “bad” cholesterol is now alarmingly high — high enough to prompt one doctor to threaten me with statin drugs. (I changed doctors. Statins are crazy dangerous.)What happened to make such a dramatic change? Simple. I live in America. I could probably end my explanation right there, but let me explain what living in America means for metabolic health. We have all been fed the idea (pardon my pun) that we MUST eat at least three meals a day. Some so-called “experts” even insist that we need to eat as many as six meals a day. Just let that sink in. Six. Meals. A. Day. That’s supposed to help us LOSE weight?I was constantly being judged by those closest to me for my eating style, as well as for my weight, which they insisted was “too skinny.” Friends, family members and others frequently accused me of being anorexic, told me that I was setting a bad example for my daughters, that “no one can eat like that.” And because I loved them and believed they had my best interests at heart, I trusted them against my own better judgment.After some 30 years of eating the “normal” American way, I now have ample proof in my own ample proportions that the American way of eating is the one that’s crazy, and that my way was right all along — especially since many of my biggest critics have since died prematurely because of the very eating habits they insisted I adopt.One significant truth that Dr. Fung’s book adds to my own innate pattern is to make sure to stay hydrated. In my younger days, I must confess, I was pretty careless about drinking enough water, and sometimes I used to get very dehydrated. That would then lead to headaches and fatigue which, of course, merely added weight (another pun) to the arguments from others that I wasn’t eating enough. By making sure I drink plenty of water and bone broth on fasting days, I feel terrific when I’m fasting — actually much better than on days when I am not fasting.One suggestion for those of you who choose to follow Dr. Fung’s very simple, customizable, doable intermittent fasting program: Don’t tell anyone else what you’re doing — not even your health-care providers, if they are the sort who believe they know more about your own body than you do. If you do tell other people that you are following the intermittent fasting plan, be prepared to be judged, attacked, criticized and told you’re crazy. Close your ears and trust your gut. Your own body will tell you everything you need to know about what is best for you. Then, just make sure you have your critical markers routinely tested and monitored: blood pressure, blood glucose, insulin resistance, cholesterol levels, etc. And find out exactly what each of those numbers means. Those will give you a clear picture of what is happening with your health.I am now entering my fourth day of reintroducing my old eating pattern of intermittent fasting, and I have already lost six pounds. I’ve chosen to follow the every-other-day pattern, just because it’s really easy. I eat one day, fast the next. And to be honest, my fasting days haven’t been pure fasts. I’ve nibbled on a few things here and there on those days. My eating pattern on non-fasting days has changed as well: I’ve gone back to eating only when I’m actually hungry, and it’s much easier to stay away from sugar and processed foods, since they just don’t taste good and aren’t satisfying. What I’ve discovered is that I will lose maybe two or three pounds on fasting days and gain back one on the following day when I eat. Still, the overall trajectory on my scale is clearly downward, which is already a complete reversal of the trajectory I have been on for the past several decades. And, I feel terrific: I have tons of energy, and I’ve lost that awful congested feeling in my belly. The point is to pick the pattern that’s most realistic for you, and then adjust it and tweak it to make it work for you.(I think maybe those of us who are following Dr. Fung’s suggestions need to form a support group to help strengthen ourselves against the inevitable attacks and criticisms we are likely to encounter. Anyone with me on this?)Bottom line: This book, and your own best instincts, are really all you need to improve your health. Good luck, and enjoy your new life bursting with health and energy!

The most important book about food you may ever read
This book is going to make you angry.Angry at the government for ignorantly (or politically) making determinations about nutrition and health that turned out to be fundamentally wrong.Angry at scientists for ignoring the data of their own studies to disseminate biased conclusions that we now know are completely false.Angry at organizations like The America Heart Association for allowing its branding to appear on products that are decidedly NOT healthful. (For example, Cheerios has a glycemic load almost as high as sucrose – actual sugar! – and yet the AHA put its Heart Check stamp of approval on it.)Angry at companies that promote foods as a fad, considering shaky scientific evidence as an axiom with its products like âfat freeâ foods that are almost all sugar, and âgluten freeâ foods that are only beneficial to a mere 1-2% of the population.Angry at The Biggest Loser, Weight Watchers, Atkins, and all the other diet plans that work for a year and then inevitably result in most people gaining back all the weight that was lost, because the science behind those programs is less important than the money those corporations make. (If you get fat again, just keep sending $15-$25 per month and weâll help you try to lose it again! And again! And again!)Angry at artificial sweeteners and diet sodas, both of which trigger the same insulin responses as if they had real sugar, but depriving the body of actual glucose, resulting in you craving even MORE diet soda and MORE food.Angry at your parents for telling you that itâs better to eat six small meals each day (even though your grandparents knew better and told your parents that snacking in between meals would make them fat, and that they shouldnât eat when theyâre not hungry).The good news is that Jason Fung explains everything very clearly, so you donât have to be a scientist yourself to understand this book. He unravels all the factors that make us fat, and gives us solutions for how to rid ourselves of those extra pounds.Itâs a difficult read if youâre biased towards six meals a day, fat free, gluten free, calories in equals calories out, the food pyramid, or any of the other beliefs many of us were raised on and continued to be told our whole lives. But once youâve finished this book, youâll finally KNOW how to truly fix your fixation with bad food, know when and how often to eat, and – most importantly – truly UNDERSTAND how to lose weight properly without gaining it back.My favorite little gem from the book was learning that âcalorie countingâ became the governmentâs recommended method because of Herbert Hoover (as head of the U.S. Food Administration); and George McGovern (as head of the United States Senate Select Committee on Nutrition and Human Needs) decided that dietary fat was bad and carbohydrates were good, resulting in the disastrous Food Pyramid that got everyone to eat large bowls of pasta with a couple of meat balls, which subsequently made 40% of the United States obese!Thatâs right – POLITICIANS decided in the 70s and 80s what was good for you, and – big surprise – they were completely WRONG! And the fallout from those awful decisions have been with us for 40-50 years.This book will make you angry, but it will give you hope and power – the hope that you CAN lose weight permanently, and the power to do it with legitimate, good science on your side. To quote the master, âyou must unlearn what you have learned.âI lost 30+ pounds based on what I read in this book, and Iâve successfully kept it off. You will too if you follow its advice.

Finally the facts on how your body works. It all makes complete sense and requires no cost in any way to achieve your desired results. In 7 days my blood pressure is 121/73 and have now dropped 2 meds at 65 yrs old. No more drowsiness and so much energy. All the fat is literally melting into the sunset. When you know the truth that your body will not utilize muscle for energy until you are around 4% body fat…. you no longer equate a hunger pain with possible muscle loss. Instead you think this isn’t really a hunger pain, it’s just my 30, 40, 50 pounds of stored glucose in the form of fat is now being utilized for energy. Exactly what I want. How could it actually be a hunger pain carrying all that excess energy around….? Kinda funny. Just a shift in thinking more aligned with the truth about your body’s design and function. Truly freeing information. I am so happy and becoming more liberated everyday from the self imposed prison of excess weight. All from not knowing how it all worked and now following a easy method of weight loss. This book should be mandatory reading in grade 9. I started at p.155 section 5. What’s wrong with our diet?

I wish I had read it earlier in my life. I lost 21kg from April 2024 to August 2024. Insulin level dropped to 5. H1ac to 5,5 and blood sugar to 98. They are still improving. I feel amazing.The world needs scientists and doctors like Dr. Fung. I read all his books. I can not recommend it more.
