Cracking the Obesity Code - Excess Insulin and Insulin Resistance Make You Fat (Episode #83, 10 Feb. 2022)

This is our 3rd and most important episode relating to my review of the book that changed my life: The Obesity Code by Dr. Jason Fung.   After reading it, I effortlessly lost weight along with the most awesome Fastic App: 70 pounds to be exact.  Before ... Dad Bod, bloated, and 300 pounds.  After ... 230, skinny jeans, and fit.   Do Keto ("ish"), Try Fasting.  Get Ripped.  That's it.    Is it really that simple? Yep, it is, and you'll need to read Obesity Code to understand why.    There is a raging controversy about two models of weight loss.  Some MD's and dieticians support calories in/calories out model.  Eat less. Move more.  You're fat because you're lazy and lack will power. Others, and this is still the minority view, believe that view is garbage.  It doesn't explain why so many people fail using that model.   It's not that they're lazy or lack willpower.  They're focusing on the wrong model. Dr. Fung, and countless others, now embrace the insulin theory of obesity.  Insulin makes you fat.  Understanding insulin optimization gets you thin.   In this episode, I explore why believe the Insulin Rebels, including Dr. Fung, are right, and more importantly, why this is such an important issue to resolve.   Getting it right is not only an academic issue.  Being fat makes you sick and dramatically increases your risk of death.  Your life may well depend on who is right and who is wrong.   Whoa, this was a fun one to do!!
