The Obesity Code by Jason Fung
<p>This episode explores Dr. Jason Fung’s The Obesity Code, a provocative rethinking of weight loss and its underlying causes. Fung challenges the traditional calorie-in/calorie-out model, presenting obesity instead as a <strong>hormonal disorder—primarily driven by insulin resistance</strong>. We break down how elevated insulin promotes fat storage, and how strategies like <strong>intermittent fasting</strong> and <strong>reducing refined carbs</strong> can help rebalance metabolic health. With clear explanations and actionable insights, The Obesity Code reframes sustainable weight management through the lens of <strong>hormonal science</strong>, making it a powerful resource for anyone seeking long-term results beyond conventional dieting.</p><p><strong>Disclaimer:</strong> This episode provides an educational overview and commentary on The Obesity Code by Dr. Jason Fung.
