Undoing Diabetes, and other "Incurable" Diseases.
The conversation about obesity often points to insulin as a major contributing factor. Dr. Jason Fung, a nephrologist from Toronto, advocates for a reevaluation of conventional wisdom surrounding obesity, emphasizing that insulin, rather than simply calorie intake, significantly impacts weight gain.
Dr. Fung highlights a critical oversight in the typical approach to obesity management. Many medical professionals and experts focus on caloric intake without considering the hormonal implications of insulin. He explains that regardless of diet or willpower, elevated insulin levels inherently cause weight gain by promoting fat storage.
Insulin serves an essential function—regulating blood sugar by prompting fat storage. However, when insulin levels are too high, particularly from external administration or dietary triggers, the results can significantly contribute to obesity. Dr. Fung asserts: “Hyperinsulinemia, an excess of insulin, logically leads to weight gain,” urging professionals to reconsider simplistic theories of caloric balance.
