Toronto, Ontario-based nephrologist, clinical fasting expert, and international bestselling author Dr. Jason Fung is our guest today in Episode 1380 of “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show.”

 Dr. Jason Fung forever changed the way we think about obesity with his best-selling book, The Obesity Code. Now he has set out to do the same for type 2 diabetes with his brand new release The Diabetes Code. Today, most doctors, dietitians, and even diabetes specialists consider type 2 diabetes to be a chronic and progressive disease—a life sentence with no possibility of parole. But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this paradigm-shifting book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible. Writing with clear, persuasive language, he explains why conventional treatments that rely on insulin or other blood-glucose-lowering drugs can actually exacerbate the problem, leading to significant weight gain and even heart disease. The only way to treat type 2 diabetes effectively, he argues, is proper dieting and intermittent fasting—not medication.

 

Listen in today as Jimmy talks to Dr. Fung about his new book about diabetes, his tips for reversing diabetes, what the medical establishment gets wrong about this disease, why treatments with insulin are actually making the problem worse, the role of diet and fasting in treating diabetes, and much more.
