Review: Finally!!!! The 'master' has 'spoken'!!! - Backstory: When I was diagnosed Type 2 diabetes about a year and a half ago, I was a bit shell shocked, if maybe not surprised. My lifestyle and genetics (mainly my lifestyle, or lack thereof) made it almost an unavoidable given. I went from working over 40 hours a week on my feet to being a 24/7 caregiver to my elderly parents. The sedentary lifestyle and terrible food choices put me on the fast track to diabetes, so, yeah, I guess I wasn't surprised. After that almost predictable diagnosis, I did what many do..Google. And even looked on Youtube. It was on Youtube that I found what I call my saving grace....Dr. Jason Fung. He was the first Youtube video that resonated with me. It finally made sense, and a "lightbulb" moment happened. I didn't need the seeming unavoidable sentence of a lifetime prescription of med's..I just needed to drastically change what I ate. I was a bit hesitant to try Intermittent Fasting that Jason talked about, but I thought, why not? I immediately lost a lot of weight and noticed changes in my overall health for the better. I had more energy and felt like 'my old self' again, not a tired worn out old lady. Shoot, I was only in my late 40's, yet until 'discovering' Jason Fung, I had felt as old as my parents, who were in their 80's. I also tried to figure out an eating plan like Dr. Fung alluded to, and that led me to basically begin following low carb/low sugar eating habits. I don't like to use the word 'keto,' but rather low carb/low sugar. Sugar is truly the enemy, and carbs run close behind sugar for sabotaging health, imho. So, I had since always been wanting/wishing for/hoping with all my heart that the 'master' himself finally put out a cookbook, and here it is, and I am not disappointed. I always thought, what does Dr. Fung eat..? Well, these recipes may or may not be what he eats on the daily, but they are apparently Fung-approved. And they all look like what I imagined Dr. Fung eating, wholesome REAL food, nothing fancy, no exotic nor expensive ingredients, just REAL FOOD recipes. Easy to understand, easy to make. Yes, I already know by perusing this cookbook, there are the types of recipes that my bloodwork thanks me for, and I want to thank Jason Fung and the publisher for. Finally, the 'master' has spoken..and this is my 'bible..Thank you, Dr. Fung. You have helped me avoid a very ugly path of unhealthiness. I am so grateful. This is all I need. Yes, I have some 'keto' and low carb/low sugar cookbooks, but this is one 'healthy' cookbook that will always be on my top shelf, easy to access. This one will never end up in the donation bin. Thank you again, Dr. Fung, and I will always look forward to your next book!
Review: Simple, Delicious Meals - Great Hardcover book, with plenty of photos. Simple recipes, with ingredients you can find at a good grocery store. So far I made the Shepherds Pie with the sweet potato mash and the Gruyere Meatloaf. Both delicious. Have many more on my food list.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally!!!! The 'master' has 'spoken'!!!
*by A***A on December 10, 2019*

Backstory: When I was diagnosed Type 2 diabetes about a year and a half ago, I was a bit shell shocked, if maybe not surprised.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple, Delicious Meals
*by C***J on April 1, 2025*

Great Hardcover book, with plenty of photos. Simple recipes, with ingredients you can find at a good grocery store. So far I made the Shepherds Pie with the sweet potato mash and the Gruyere Meatloaf. Both delicious. Have many more on my food list.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended book for anyone interested in IF
*by M***M on February 26, 2020*

If you're looking for a great summary of Fung's Obesity Code and a practical guide to applying it, here's the book you've been waiting for. The first 30 pages are worth the price of the book alone - a concise explanation of the link between insulin and obesity (and metabolic syndrome generally), and a practical guide for losing fat and improving overall health using fasting and simple dietary recommendations: don't snack between meals, reduce processed foods especially sugars factory milled flour, eat plenty of good fats, eat protein in moderation, reduce carbs, increase fiber. Other reviewers complained about the lack of dietary information for each recipe in this book, which suggests they failed to read or understand the first 30 pages of the Obesity Code Cookbook. The whole purpose of the book is to liberate people from the prevailing myths surrounding obesity and treatments for obesity (calories in/calories out, eat less/exercise more, counting calories, counting carbs, etc.), and put people on the path to good health through the use of intermittent fasting and the simple dietary recommendations outlined in the fist chapter of this book. There's simply no need to track dietary information for each meal - just enjoy the food. For those looking for a more detailed explanation of the insulin theory of obesity and a systematic debunking of all other theories of obesity, you should definitely also read Fung's book, The Obesity Code. I highly recommend both books.
