What is the relationship between insulin and diabetes? Dr. Jockers is in conversation today with Dr. Jason Fung, and the two highly acclaimed health practitioners are discussing the best nutrition and lifestyle strategies to heal insulin naturally. 

 

Dr. Jason Fung is a New York Times bestselling author of several books, including The Obesity Code and The Diabetes Code. He is also the author of The Complete Guide to Fasting and has an upcoming book too, The Cancer Code. 

 

What precautions should you take when beginning intermittent fasting, especially if you have diabetes or suffer from kidney or heart disease? Why is society still struggling with obesity, considering how much we now know? Should we be counting calories to lose weight – or is there a deeper issue that we need to address? 

 

The answers to these questions (and more!) in this insightful episode of Functional Nutrition. Learn that burning fat is about far more than just caloric deficit. 

 

Please share this information with anyone you know and care about that will benefit from this content as we believe that it saves lives.

 

“If you say to someone 'just eat fewer calories', that's the same thing as 'just don't hit icebergs', right? You're not getting into the deeper reason as to why they're eating too many calories"
- Dr. Jason Fung
