The Complete Guide to Fasting: Heal Your Body Through Intermittent, Alternate-Day, and Extended Fasting pdf

Jason Fung, MD, est né en 1973 et a été formé à Los Angeles et à Toronto en tant que spécialiste du rein. Il a fondé The Fasting Method (TheFastingMethod.com) pour fournir des conseils fondés sur des preuves pour la perte de poids et la gestion de la glycémie, en se concentrant sur les régimes pauvres en glucides et le jeûne intermittent. Il est devenu évident que les traitements médicaux conventionnels laissent tomber les patients. De nombreux problèmes médicaux chroniques d'aujourd'hui sont liés à l'alimentation et à l'obésité, mais les traitements sont axés sur les médicaments et les interventions chirurgicales. Si vous ne traitez pas la cause première, le problème ne s'améliore jamais. Un problème alimentaire nécessite une solution diététique. Le Dr Fung est l'auteur de The Obesity Code, The Complete Guide to Fasting et The Diabetes Code. Il est également rédacteur scientifique du Journal of Insulin Resistance et directeur général de l'organisation à but non lucratif Public Health Collaboration (Canada), un groupe international voué à la promotion d'informations nutritionnelles fiables.

Thousands of books have been written about the latest and greatest diets that will help people lose weight and improve health. But a key element in any successful nutritional health program is a tried-and-true method that most people haven’t thought about—yet it could be revolutionary for taking health to the next level. This ancient secret is fasting. Fasting is not about starving oneself. When done right, it’s an incredibly effective therapeutic approach that produces amazing results regardless of diet plan. In fact, Toronto-based nephrologist Dr. Jason Fung has used a variety of fasting protocols with more than 1,000 patients, with fantastic success. In The Complete Guide to Fasting, he has teamed up with international bestselling author and veteran health podcaster Jimmy Moore to explain what fasting is really about, why it’s so important, and how to fast in a way that improves health.
