Books Why We Get Sick: The Hidden Epidemic at the Root of Most Chronic Disease--and How to Fight It by Benjamin Bikman, The Cancer Code by Dr. Jason Fung (Author)

Why We Get Sick: The Hidden Epidemic at the Root of Most Chronic Disease—and How to Fight It by Benjamin Bikman reveals groundbreaking evidence that many major diseases such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and Alzheimer's share a common root cause: insulin resistance. Bikman explains that insulin resistance is a hidden epidemic affecting over half of adults in many countries. The book covers the alarming rise in chronic diseases linked to this condition and offers an evidence-based plan to prevent and reverse it through lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, and intermittent fasting. Bikman provides practical advice to help readers take control of their health by addressing this underlying cause rather than just treating symptoms.

The Cancer Code by Dr. Jason Fung explains a revolutionary perspective on cancer development and treatment. Fung challenges traditional cancer theories and emphasizes the role of insulin, growth factors, and diet in cancer growth. The book argues that cancer is largely driven by metabolic dysfunction and insulin resistance, similar to other chronic diseases. Fung presents a scientific approach focused on reducing insulin resistance through dietary intervention, fasting, and lifestyle strategies to prevent and fight cancer more effectively than conventional methods alone. This work aims to empower patients and healthcare providers with new tools based on metabolic health .
