Product ID: 337850814
New York Times bestselling author Dr. Jason Fung helped thousands of people lose weight with his groundbreaking book The Obesity Code. Now, he offers the ultimate companion cookbook, filled with zero carb recipes and intermittent fasting plans to help readers lose weight, manage type 2 diabetes, and increase longevity, all while eating delicious food. In his original bestseller The Obesity Code, Dr. Jason Fung showed us that everything about our metabolism, including our weight, depends upon on our hormones. He showed us that the hormone insulin triggers our bodies to store calories as fat, and that once we understand weight gain as a result of excess insulin and homonal imbalance in our body, we can begin to treat it by looking at what’s on our plate. Enter The Obesity Code Cookbook, a collection of mouthwatering recipes for your journey to lower insulin, lose weight for good, and reverse and prevent type 2 diabetes. 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. Praise for Dr. Jason Fung: “The doctor who invented intermittent fasting.”— The Daily Mail “Dr. Jason Fung’s explanation of insulin resistance and the accompanying insulin model of obesity is original, brilliant and game changing.” — Zoë Harcombe , Obesity researcher, author of The Harcrombe Diet Dr. Jason Fung triumphs in explaining the core underlying causes of obesity and manages to simplify it in a way that anybody can understand. If more doctors and people were able to understand these causes and implement Dr. Fung's actionable advice then we would be able to start reversing the obesity epidemic tomorrow.” — Sam Feltham , USA Today World Fitness Elite Trainer of the Year “Fung zeroes in on why insulin resistance has become so prevalent and offers specific outside-the-box solutions that have emerged as the key to maximizing health.” — Jimmy Moore , author, Keto Clarity and Cholesterol Clarity

Sehr leckere Art, sich gesünder zu ernähren.
Im Gegensatz zu vielen amerikanischen Rezensionen kann ich nicht behaupten, hier würden unnötig schwer einzukaufende Bestandteile gefordert oder das Essen sei zu kompliziert zuzubereiten. Ich denke das meiste hat ein europäischer Haushalt ohnehin vorrätig, zu kaufen gibt es definitiv alles auch ohne größeren Aufwand. Das Buch hat nicht für jedes Gericht auch ein hübsches Foto, gefühlt ein Drittel wird auch optisch präsentiert. Wer sich gerne optisch führen lässt wird vielleicht mit einem anderen Werk glücklicher. Und, nicht zu vergessen: anders als andere Kochbücher werden hier keine Kalorienangaben zu den Gerichten gemacht. Das kann allerdings nur überraschen, wenn man die Philosophie des Herausgebers ignoriert: Eine Kalorie ist eben nicht eine Kalorie. Was man aufnimmt, aber im Darm nur teilweise resorbiert, zählt für die Darmbakterien, aber nicht für den Menschen. Proteine verbrauchen zur Verbrennung Energie, da sie hierfür erst umgebaut werden müssen. Fructose belastet die Leber massiv. Die alte Rechnung FdH geht eben nicht völlig auf: sie macht Abnehmen schwerer und tut wenig für die Gesundheit, denn schließlich ist zuviel Körperfett ein Symptom und nicht die eigentliche Krankheit. Die Einleitung geht darauf in aller Kürze und ohne tiefer Erklärung ein. Die Rezepte sind weder rein Keto oder Vegetarisch, jedoch durchgehend low carb, bezogen auf den tatsächlich für den Körper verfügbaren Nährwert. Die Mengenangaben schwanken zwischen 4 und 6 Personen, aber auch für mich als Teilzeitsingle ist es unproblematisch, entsprechend herunter zu rechnen. Ich bin mit dem Kauf sehr zufrieden.

Finally!!!! The 'master' has 'spoken'!!!
Backstory:When I was diagnosed Type 2 diabetes about a year and a half ago, I was a bit shell shocked, if maybe not surprised. My lifestyle and genetics (mainly my lifestyle, or lack thereof) made it almost an unavoidable given. I went from working over 40 hours a week on my feet to being a 24/7 caregiver to my elderly parents. The sedentary lifestyle and terrible food choices put me on the fast track to diabetes, so, yeah, I guess I wasn't surprised. After that almost predictable diagnosis, I did what many do..Google. And even looked on Youtube. It was on Youtube that I found what I call my saving grace....Dr. Jason Fung. He was the first Youtube video that resonated with me. It finally made sense, and a "lightbulb" moment happened. I didn't need the seeming unavoidable sentence of a lifetime prescription of med's..I just needed to drastically change what I ate. I was a bit hesitant to try Intermittent Fasting that Jason talked about, but I thought, why not? I immediately lost a lot of weight and noticed changes in my overall health for the better. I had more energy and felt like 'my old self' again, not a tired worn out old lady. Shoot, I was only in my late 40's, yet until 'discovering' Jason Fung, I had felt as old as my parents, who were in their 80's. I also tried to figure out an eating plan like Dr. Fung alluded to, and that led me to basically begin following low carb/low sugar eating habits. I don't like to use the word 'keto,' but rather low carb/low sugar. Sugar is truly the enemy, and carbs run close behind sugar for sabotaging health, imho.So, I had since always been wanting/wishing for/hoping with all my heart that the 'master' himself finally put out a cookbook, and here it is, and I am not disappointed. I always thought, what does Dr. Fung eat..? Well, these recipes may or may not be what he eats on the daily, but they are apparently Fung-approved. And they all look like what I imagined Dr. Fung eating, wholesome REAL food, nothing fancy, no exotic nor expensive ingredients, just REAL FOOD recipes. Easy to understand, easy to make. Yes, I already know by perusing this cookbook, there are the types of recipes that my bloodwork thanks me for, and I want to thank Jason Fung and the publisher for. Finally, the 'master' has spoken..and this is my 'bible..Thank you, Dr. Fung. You have helped me avoid a very ugly path of unhealthiness. I am so grateful. This is all I need. Yes, I have some 'keto' and low carb/low sugar cookbooks, but this is one 'healthy' cookbook that will always be on my top shelf, easy to access. This one will never end up in the donation bin. Thank you again, Dr. Fung, and I will always look forward to your next book!

Who knew bok choy could be so delicious!
I’m just a couple of weeks in so will have to get back to you on the weight loss part (although my clothes fit better already, stopped weighing myself a long time ago), but these are some of the most delicious recipes I’ve ever made out of a cookbook. I feel like I’m eating restaurant quality food and I’m feeling quite “cheffy” in the kitchen. My husband loves them too. I thought I would feel hungry and unsatisfied without a potato or some other carb, but I’m feeling satisfied and not hungry or tempted to eat before bed. I hope for another recipe book from. Dr. Fung.
