The Obesity Code

Doctor Fung makes a very good case that the key to avoiding obesity and its related problems is in maintaining a proper hormonal balance. Insulin control is especially important. This is not a diet book nor is it a life-style book, though it does make recommendations in both areas. We learn why there is an obesity epidemic in many parts of the world, especially in first world countries. This book stands many things we have been told over the years on their heads. There is quite a bit of science, but I found it easy to follow, for it is presented with wit and skilfully written.
A must read for those struggling with weight problems and a good resource for anyone seeking a healthy lifestyle.
