This is the second episode in a four part series on the Obesity Code by Dr. Jason Fung, a book that changed my life.  What makes Dr. Fung so awesome as a source on fasting?

In the diet and nutrition space, it is so hard to figure out what to believe and who you should trust.  There are a cacophony of voices out there each hawking their own method, their own theories, their own approach.  Some of that advice runs counter to conventional medical wisdom and trends seem be constantly reversing and changing.  Salt good or bad?  High fat good or bad?  Pills or no pills?  Fasting just a fad or something deeper and more powerful?  When do you accept conventional wisdom?  When should you challenge it?

The work of Dr. Jason Fung has completely transformed my life, helping me to easily lose 70 pounds.   This is a longer podcast on what makes him so effective as a source on fasting.  He is a conventionally trained doctor, but willing to challenge conventional training, especially when the theories did not match what he was seeing in his own practice.  We also explore some limitations on doctors, i.e. why smart people can get it wrong.  Some doctors suck, even when they follow their training without questioning whether it is actually right or the best approach.  

While other doctors out there are just as smart and talented, what makes Dr. Fung so effective is his seamless integration of theory, practice, peer reviewed studies, and the ability communicate to a broader audience.  

Whoa, I have mega gratitude to Dr. Fung.  

Prior to Dr. Fung, Dad Bod, fat, and sick.  After Dr. Fung, fit, six pack, and healthy.  

This podcast is a discussion on why he is so effective and hopefully, you will find your own Dr. Fung.
