The vast majority of premature deaths can be prevented through simple changes in diet and lifestyle.

2. The Obesity Code Unlocking the Secrets of Weight Loss
By: Dr. Jason Fung
 Why you’ve never been able to lose weight, and how that can change now 
Everything you believe about how to lose weight is wrong. Weight gain and obesity are driven by hormones—in everyone—and only by understanding the effects of insulin and insulin resistance can we achieve lasting weight loss.
In this highly readable and provocative book, Dr. Jason Fung sets out an original, robust theory of obesity that provides startling insights into proper nutrition. In addition to his five basic steps, a set of lifelong habits that will improve your health and control your insulin levels, Dr. Fung explains how to use intermittent fasting to break the cycle of insulin resistance and reach a healthy weight—for good.

By: Jimmy Moore, Dr. Jason Fung

The book also provides tools to help readers get started and get through their fasts, including a 7-Day Kick-Start Fasting Plan and healing liquid recipes.




4. The Diabetes Code Prevent and Reverse Type 2 Diabetes Naturally
By: Dr. Jason Fung
Today, most doctors, dietitians, and even diabetes specialists consider type 2 diabetes to be a chronic and progressive disease, a life sentence with no possibility of parole. But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this paradigm-shifting audiobook, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible.
Writing with clear, persuasive language, he explains why conventional treatments that rely on insulin or other blood-glucose-lowering drugs can actually exacerbate the problem, leading to significant weight gain and even heart disease. The only way to treat type 2 diabetes effectively, he argues, is proper dieting and intermittent fasting, not medication.




5. The Keto Reset Diet : Reboot Your Metabolism in 21 Days and Burn Fat Forever
By: Mark Sisson
Mounting scientific research is confirming that eating a ketogenic diet could represent one of the greatest nutritional breakthroughs of our time - and that it might be the healthiest and most effective weight loss strategy ever. Going "keto" by eating high fat, low-to-moderate protein, and low-carb foods enables you to break free from the disastrous effects of carbohydrate dependency by resetting your metabolism and promoting metabolic flexibility - where your body learns to burns fat instead of sugar for energy, even when you go off plan. 
Critics Review :
"The exploding popularity of keto has resulted in excessive hype and ill-advised attempts to shortcut the process of fat-adaptation. The Keto Reset Diet takes a thoughtful, patient, lifestyle-focused approach to bring you all the health benefits without the burnout." (Melissa Hartwig, New York Times best-selling author and Whole30 cofounder)

The medical profession is known for its demanding nature, with doctors and other medical professionals working long hours and dealing with high levels of stress. As a result, there has long been a belief that medical practice can lead to a shorter lifespan for those who work in the field.  But is this belief accurate? In order to answer this question, it's important to first look at the reasons why medical practice may be thought to have a negative impact on lifespan.  One of the primary reasons is the high levels of stress that medical professionals are often subjected to. Doctors and nurses deal with life-and-death situations on a daily basis, and the pressure to make the right decisions can be immense.
