“As a family doctor, I’ve treated hundreds of patients suffering from obesity and its complications—most have tried all kinds of diets and exercise regimens, to no avail. These patients unfortunately received the wrong advice, for decades. To lose weight and keep it off, your hunger must be under control, which means you cannot just focus on what you eat, you must prioritize when you eat and don’t eat. This book is a guide to sustainable weight loss. Read it. Change your life.” (Dr. Evelyne Bourdua-Roy, M.D., author of Eat Fat to Lose Weight with the Keto and Low Carb Diet)
"Dr. Jason Fung and Megan Ramos are two of the world’s most knowledgeable practitioners advocating the health-promoting value of scientifically-based fasting. In this unique collaboration they have partnered with Eve Mayer, herself a survivor of the inappropriate medical and surgical management of obesity, to produce a highly readable, state-of-the-art book describing all one needs to know to follow a safe and effective fasting program for optimizing personal health. Be warned. It is a revolutionary book. It might just save your life." (Tim Noakes, emeritus professor and author of Lore of Running and Real Food on Trial)
“This book is a timely and practical blueprint to reclaiming your vitality. Eve Mayer, Megan Ramos, and Dr. Jason Fung have created a guide that entertains, enlightens, motivates, and inspires. I cannot recommend Life in the Fasting Lane enough for both the beginner and more experienced faster" (Vanessa Spina, SNS, Author of Keto Essentials)
