Why Do We Get Fat? Part 2 – Insulin is the key

Stop counting calories. If 'Calories In, Calories Out' really worked, why do those diets
fail 99% of the time? In this video, Dr. Jason Fung explains why obesity is not a
caloric imbalance, but a hormonal imbalance—specifically involving insulin.
Most people believe that weight gain is a personal choice caused by eating too
much and exercising too little. But science tells a different story. Discover how
your body's internal thermostat (BMR) actually regulates your weight and why
lowering insulin, not calories, is the key to long-term fat loss.
In this video you will learn:
● Why the 'Calories In, Calories Out' model is scientifically flawed.
● How damage to the hypothalamus leads to massive weight gain
(independent of willpower).
● The role of Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) in energy expenditure.
● How Insulin acts as a 'Fat Storage Hormone' and blocks lipolysis (fat
burning).
● Why simply eating less lowers your metabolism and makes you regain
weight.
