In "The Cancer Code," Jason Fung delves into the intricate relationship between diet, metabolism, and cancer. He challenges conventional cancer treatments, emphasizing the importance of addressing underlying metabolic dysfunction. The book explores how insulin resistance and chronic inflammation can contribute to cancer development and progression. Fung proposes a metabolic approach to cancer prevention and treatment, focusing on dietary changes and lifestyle modifications. He argues that optimizing metabolic health can significantly impact cancer risk and outcomes.
In this highly readable and provocative book, Dr. Jason Fung sets out an original theory of obesity that emphasizes the role of hormones, particularly insulin and insulin resistance, in weight gain. He argues that traditional weight-loss methods focusing on calorie counting and excessive exercise are ineffective and instead advocates for intermittent fasting and a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet to achieve lasting weight loss and improve overall health. The book provides practical, science-based advice on controlling insulin levels and breaking the cycle of insulin resistance.
