Review 1: The Obesity Code audiobook by Anonymous User

Waste of money and time

This book is the most padded book I have ever read. It essentially says.: Eat less sugar and refined carbs. Eat less processed food. Drink Apple cider vinegar in water. Exercise is good but doesn’t help weight loss. Fat and coffee are good. Fast. There, I saved you 15 dollars and 15 hours of listening to the same things over and over.

Review 2: The Obesity Code audiobook by Cynthia

There is a PDF, Folks

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I keep seeing reviews on Audible stating “it would be nice to have the charts, forms, list, etc. the author keeps referring to”. Yes they’re included here! Look at your purchase list, and underneath the books that include a pdf you will find a link to click. You can then download reference material for your book. I wish Audible would do a better job showing this! Click on Library, then My books, and then look for the links underneath the book purchased.

Review 3: The Obesity Code audiobook by Maria

YES!! Finally. The book I’ve been searching for!!

I am not a doctor, nutritionist or science major. I’m just a middle-age female who has struggled with weight for the past 15 years. I have a genuine interest in biology, epigenetics, nutrition and disease prevention. I have literally read or listened to every single book published out there on those subjects. Some are good, some are bad. And all of them center around this false notion that eating the right amount or specific kinds of various macros are the key to losing weight. Don’t get me wrong – some of those diets and eating plans work – in the short term. Once I even lost 30 lbs and found a love of trail running. But every single stinkin’ time the weight loss would be only temporary, and it would come back on within months. I was the quintessential yo-yo dieter who people assumed went on ice cream eating binges when I definitely did not. No one ever explained set-point, or the reason why weight comes back. Dr. Fung explains the body’s homeostasis so well and with such great analogies that it was like a big, bright lightbulb going off. I’m excited to begin a new journey of sustained weight loss. This time around, instead of cutting out entire food groups or focusing on macros, I bought a blood sugar monitor and will aim to lower my blood sugar and insulin levels by experimenting with the right foods and diet for me. I discovered that Greek Yogurt — the supposed health food that almost every diet book applauds as being great for weight loss — spikes my blood sugar (and presumably, my insulin) considerably. But a snack of Ezekiel bread and peanut butter (gasp… actual BREAD?) didn’t affect my blood sugar much at all. After years of wondering if tweaking and lowering my calories by another 100 on My Fitness Pal app would help me break my plateau, I finally have real answers. (And for the record, Dr. Fung insists that answer is NO.) The narrator was fabulous, and all around I’m declaring that I don’t need to listen to another weight loss book ever again. This is a God-send!
