Unravel the decades-old mysteries of weight loss in Dr. Jason Fung’s groundbreaking book: The Obesity Code.

Dr. Jason Fung, a Canadian physician and nephrologist, spent 20 years in the field of medicine treating obese and diabetic patients only to realize he wasn’t really treating their illnesses – he was merely treating their symptoms.

The Obesity Code provides a comprehensive description of the hows and whys of both weight gain and weight loss. In his compelling book, Dr. Fung speaks the unspoken truth about diets, and challenges the long-held beliefs about the relation of caloric intake to weight loss.

Step off that scale, take a seat, and pay attention as Dr. Fung’s The Obesity Code exposes the secret behind the obesity epidemic: insulin.
