How Not to Get Sick: A Cookbook and Guide to Prevent and Reverse Insulin Resistance, Lose Weight, and Fight Chronic Disease by Benjamin Bikman, PhD and Diana Keuilian Book Review





How Not to Get Sick is a brand-new book covering a scientistic approach to getting better health. Insulin resistance is something most of us are affect by. Only about 12% of people are in the healthy range in all metrics. The metrics included was waist circumference, fasting blood glucose, blood pressure, and two blood lipid measurements. In the book, they explored how to improve people’s health. They looked at the benefits to fasting and when you should fast. They explained how to prioritize protein, eating fats, and carbs and what kind to eat. They looked at movement and how much we should be moving regularly. The included a few exercises and pictures explaining the moves. The book covered sleep and how critical it is to sleep and how a lack of just two days can spike your insulin levels. The book contains a few different reverse meal plans. There is even a recipe section. Some of these included, spiced butter chicken, chicken alfredo spaghetti bake, grilled Sunday steak, creamy garlic shrimp, peanut butter chocolate layered mousse, sweet and salty dessert bark, strawberry cheesecake smoothie, and much more. 

 

 

 

I would recommend this awesome book on tips and techniques to combat insulin and becoming insulin resistance. The book is very insightful on learning how to control our glucose. I immensely liked the healthy version of new favorites recipes and they seem like they will assist you in your overall health. It was very shocking to read how many of us are failing in the metrics and I’m including myself. This is very well researched and if you follow along and put in work and effort you can begin to see positive changes.
