Our understanding of cancer is slowly undergoing a revolution, allowing for the development of more effective treatments. For the first time ever, the death rate from cancer is showing a steady decline … but the ‘War on Cancer’ has hardly been won.In The Cancer Code, Dr Jason Fung offers a revolutionary new understanding of this invasive, often fatal disease – what it is, how it manifests and why it is so challenging to treat. In this rousing narrative, Dr Fung identifies the medical community’s many missteps in cancer research – in particular, its focus on genetics, or what he terms the ‘seed’ of cancer, at the expense of examining the ‘soil,’ or the conditions under which cancer flourishes. Dr Fung – whose ground-breaking work in the treatment of obesity and diabetes has won him international acclaim – suggests that the primary disease pathway of cancer is caused by the dysregulation of insulin. In fact, obesity and type 2 diabetes significantly increase an individual’s risk of cancer.In this accessible read, Dr Fung provides a new paradigm for dealing with cancer, with recommendations for what we can do to create a hostile soil for this dangerous seed.

Secret Life of Fungi - Aliya Whiteley

Fungi are unlike any other living thing—they almost magically unique. Welcome to this astonishing world. . . Fungi can appear anywhere, from desert dunes to frozen tundra. They can invade our bodies and live between our toes or our floorboards. They are unwelcome intruders or vastly expensive treats, and symbols of both death and eternal life. But despite their familiar presence, there's still much to learn about the eruption, growth, and decay of their secret, interconnected, world. Aliya Whiteley has always been in love with fungi—from her childhood taking blurry photographs of strange fungal eruptions on Exmoor to a career as a writer inspired by their surreal and alien beauty. This love for fungi is a love for life, from single-cell spores to the largest living organism on the planet; a story stretching from Aliya's lawn into orbit and back again via every continent. From fields, feasts and fairy rings to death caps, puffballs and ambrosia beetles, this is an intoxicating journey into the life of an extraordinary organism, one that we have barely begun to understand.

Jason Fung Kód diabetu Provedení: Tištěná kniha

Diabetes 2. typu nevzniká přes noc – je výsledkem dlouhodobé hormonální nerovnováhy. Dr. Jason Fung, kanadský nefrolog a jedna z nejrespektovanějších světových autorit v oblasti metabolického zdraví, ukazuje, že skutečným kořenem problému není nedostatek léků, ale chronicky zvýšená hladina inzulinu. V této knize srozumitelně vysvětluje, jak inzulinová rezistence vzniká, proč tradiční doporučení často selhávají a jaké biologické mechanismy stojí za přibýváním na váze, výkyvy energie a zhoršováním cukrovky. Opírá se o klinickou praxi, vědecké studie i zkušenosti tisíců pacientů, kterým pomohl změnit život. Fungův přístup propojuje moderní medicínu, výživu a praktické strategie, které lze zavést okamžitě a které vedou ke skutečným výsledkům: lepší glykémii, stabilnější energii, snížení tělesné hmotnosti a často i k úplnému zvrácení diabetu 2. typu.

Jason Fung Kód diabetu Provedení: E-kniha

Diabetes 2. typu nevzniká přes noc – je výsledkem dlouhodobé hormonální nerovnováhy. Dr. Jason Fung, kanadský nefrolog a jedna z nejrespektovanějších světových autorit v oblasti metabolického zdraví, ukazuje, že skutečným kořenem problému není nedostatek léků, ale chronicky zvýšená hladina inzulinu. V této knize srozumitelně vysvětluje, jak inzulinová rezistence vzniká, proč tradiční doporučení často selhávají a jaké biologické mechanismy stojí za přibýváním na váze, výkyvy energie a zhoršováním cukrovky.

Fungi - Nicholas P. Money

The variety of the mycological world is far greater than most people imagine. Tens of thousands of fungal species have been described and many more are known only from the abundance of their genes in soil and water. Fungi are hugely important as agents of wood decay in forests, and, as parasites, they have caused the deaths of millions of people by ravaging crops and reshaping natural ecosystems.Fungi perform a variety of essential functions in ecosystems, and are important to both agriculture and biotechnology. Their importance is now becoming better appreciated among scientists, though there is much still to be understood concerning their taxonomy and evolution. This Very Short Introduction highlights the variety and extraordinary natures of fungi, revealing the remarkable facts of fungal biology and the global significance of these enchanting organisms. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

Kompletní průvodce půstem - Jason Fung, Jimmy Moore

Po celé dějiny se lidé postili – ať už z náboženských či kulturních důvodů, nebo prostě proto, že se lov nezdařil. Občasné hladovění bylo tisíce let přirozenou součástí života. Dnes už ale hlad nezažíváme nikdy: snídáme, svačíme, obědváme, svačíme, večeříme… Je právě tato radikální změna ve stravovacích návycích jednou z příčin epidemie obezity a dalších civilizačních chorob? Vědecké důkazy ukazují, že ano.Lékař Jason Fung proto se svými pacienty vyzkoušel různé postní režimy a dosáhl skvělých výsledků. V knize vysvětluje, jak lze půst využít v boji s nadváhou, a na základě vědeckých studií ukazuje, že půst nejen zpomalí stárnutí, ale má potenciál i v léčbě cukrovky 2. typu, vysokého krevního tlaku či metabolického syndromu. Často tam, kde selhávají jiné postupy.V knize se mimo jiné dozvíte komu půst může pomoci a proč je účinnější než nízkokalorické diety, proč půst odbourává tuk, nikoli svalovou hmotu, proč je jednodušší dodržovat půst než klasickou dietu a jak zvládnout pocit hladu, jaké jsou druhy půstů a jak si vybrat režim na míru, že i několikahodinové vynechání jídla může být účinným půstem, jaké chutné zdroje výživy si můžete při půstu dopřát, jak půst správně přerušit a pro koho není vhodný.

The Obesity Code - Dr Jason Fung

We are in the midst of an obesity epidemic, but despite being inundated with diet advice we are only getting fatter. We count calories and exercise regularly, yet still the pounds won’t budge. Why?In this highly readable and provocative book, Dr Jason Fung sets out a groundbreaking new theory: that obesity is caused by our hormones, rather than a lack of self-control. He reveals that overproduction of insulin in the body is the root cause of obesity and obesity-related illnesses including type 2 diabetes, and offers robust scientific evidence that reversing insulin resistance is the only way to lose weight in the long term. It turns out that when we eat is just as important as what we eat, so in addition to his five basic steps — a set of life-long eating 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.

‘Highly enjoyable’ – Ancestors‘A fascinating recreation of the Tower as the life-and-death blood of the nation’ – Oxford TimesServing as both a palace and a prison, the Tower of London has been at the centre of more intrigue, terror and crucial turning points in history than any other site in England.
