We are sick. Globally, we are facing diseases that were rare in the past. Millions of people are diagnosed annually with cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and type 2 diabetes. Many more suffer from hypertension, obesity, fatty liver, dementia, low testosterone, menstrual irregularities, infertility. We are dealing with the symptoms of these diseases without realizing that all these conditions have something in common. Each one of them is caused or worsened by a condition known as insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is the most common health disorder worldwide and affects more people, adults and children, every year compared to any other disease.

In this book, Benjamin Bikman explores the reasons why insulin plays such an important role in our health, outlines the consequences of its increase, and suggests ways to address it. He equips us with the necessary knowledge derived from evidence-based scientific research and guides us in detail through the steps we need to take to prevent or even reverse insulin resistance through simple lifestyle changes, avoiding any medication. The book is aimed at any reader interested in shedding excess body fat, preventing heart disease, reducing the risk of cancer, and optimizing their brain functions.
