Jason Fung Books

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. 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 groundbreaking book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible. Writing with clear, persuasive language, Dr. Fung 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. 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

In this eye-opening biography of cancer, Dr. Jason Fung presents a radical new paradigm for understanding the disease and urges action to reduce risk. The death rate from cancer is finally declining, yet the "War on Cancer" is far from over. Dr. Fung offers a fresh perspective on cancer, exploring its nature, manifestation, and the challenges of treatment. He critiques the medical community's emphasis on genetics, or the "seed" of cancer, while neglecting the "soil," or the conditions that allow cancer to thrive. His groundbreaking work in obesity and diabetes leads him to propose that insulin dysregulation is a primary cancer pathway, linking obesity and type 2 diabetes to increased cancer risk. Dr. Fung provides actionable strategies for creating an inhospitable environment for cancer, such as intermittent fasting to lower insulin levels and avoiding insulin-stimulating foods like sugar and refined carbohydrates. By reframing cancer as an internal uprising of our own cells rather than a foreign invader, we can reclaim control over our health. While the seed of cancer may be present in everyone, the ability to change the soil lies within our grasp. This accessible read encourages a proactive approach to cancer prevention and treatment.

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 readable 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 whenwe eat is just as important as whatwe eat, so in addition to his five basic steps -- a set of life-long 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.
