This is supposed to be the very best book out for explaining how insulin affects weight gain. Dr. Jason Fung is a Canadian doctor who specializes in kidney illnesses.

He wanted to find out what could be done to help prevent people from getting kidney failure in the first place. I don’t have diabetes, but I do have heart problems, kidney failure, and I am overweight (and struggling to lose some of it); so I just bought the ebook today, and I am going to start reading it tonight. I touched on some of Dr. Fung’s insulin findings in the health thread about OMAD (one meal a day), and since the combination of intermittent fasting and low-carb seems to be working for so many people, I wanted to share more about the book here. I have not started reading it yet, but am going to do that tonight. Since I can’t actually share information from the book myself yet, here is an interesting review of the book instead. http://www.diagnosisdiet.com/obesity-code/

I'm kind of doing Dr. Jason Fung's Diabetes Code diet ... and have found interesting results with respect to the dumping of excess blood sugar (glucose) from the glucose-stuffed cells (that can't take on any more). I find myself slowly losing weight, as well. Very nice. Not hard to do, either.
