The Hunger Code

In **The Hunger Code**, **Dr Jason Fung** explores why hunger can derail even the most determined health plans, and how understanding your biology can make **sustainable weight loss** feel far more achievable. This is practical, science-led **nutrition** writing for readers who want clarity without lectures.

Fung unpacks the hidden drivers behind appetite, from hormones and metabolism to the modern food environment of **ultra-processed foods** and the new wave of weight-loss medications. Central to his approach is the idea of a “fat thermostat” — your body’s set point for stored fat — helping explain why willpower and calorie counting often fall short.

Built around three “Golden Rules” and a stack of actionable tips, the book offers tools to slow digestion, step out of emotional eating loops, handle social pressure, and reset your relationship with food.

Perfect for readers interested in metabolic health, fasting-curious shoppers, and anyone wanting a calmer, smarter way to manage appetite. Add it to your basket and see what changes when you decode hunger.
