Why We Get Sick

As a health junkie, I love reading all that I can on ways to better my own health, as well as the health of my family. I cannot begin to tell you that from the first page forward, the number of long sought after questions were FINALLY answeredfrom years fighting vertigo, to skin tags to high blood pressure to night sweats/hot flashes to the acne I developed years ago in my 30s. As someone who has been on this healthy living journey for over 15 years to finally put ALL the pieces of the puzzle (fixing my broken metabolic health) together has finally allowed me to let go of my guilt of not having willpower or discipline. All in thanks to WHY WE GET SICK My body was sick because of insulin. I am forever blessed I found this booktrust me, it will change your HEALTH as well as the HEALTH of your family and friendsyou just have to trust the process of a book written for everyone to understand, but filled with an insurmountable amount of knowledge and research to so that you can begin the process of unraveling the pieces of your own health issues.

I received this book yesterday and finished it this morning. I could not put it down!!! Ben…. THANK YOU. I regularly listen to you on you tube along with Dr Berry… Shaun Baker…and last but not least, Vinnie Tortorich, who started me on this journey. A must read if you really want to know what insulins impact is on every cell and organ in your body, and how to get it right. Again…. Thank you Rick

I read a lot of books. Recently, I have been watching Ben Bekman via my smart TV. The author of this book knows his material. I can read the science and biology books with no problem, but when I try to explain to others somehow it is lost in translation. This book is awesome for anyone who wants to understand how almost all of the chronic diseases we face in our current time and how to avoid falling victim to many diseases that shorten our lives and the lives of our loved ones. The language in easy to follow so anyone can grasp the information. I have for the last ten years have eaten basically a low carbohydrate diet ( less than 50 grams of carbs a day) and the last 7 years I have been ketogenic. I eat this way not for weight loss, but for exactly what is the problem for many people, insulin resistance. I know too much insulin is bad for the body and creates so many health issues. People, if you want to add quality years to your life and the lives of those you love THIS IS A MUST READ BOOK. This should be read by anyone who wants to avoid Alzheimers, cancer, diabetes (type 2), heart diseases, kidney disease, liver issues, etc the list goes on. You will not regret the knowledge you learn that can save your life. I read this book in two days. I suggest not just reading it, but study it and apply what you learn to your life.

Do you have or do you believe you have a genetic predisposition for: Hypertension Atherosclerosis Cardiomyopathy Alzheimers Parkinsons Migraine Neuropathy PCOS ED Breast Cancer Prostate Cancer Colorectal Cancer Skin Tags Psoriasis Acne Osteoarthritis Gout Heartburn Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease Kidney Stone These illness (and more) and their connection to Insulin Resistance are discussed individually in the 1st Section of Why We Get Sick. From there, Dr. Benjamin Bickman explains insulin resistance and how we can fight it through lifestyle changes (exercise and LCHF diet) using well document science. I have read the likes of Teicholz, Taubes, Shanahan, Perlmutter and many others. Why We Get Sick ranks among the top for content and readability. The science and the citations are available, but this is book is designed for everyone to understand. I highly recommend this book!

This book is tremendous, I could not put it down. I have been following Dr. Bikmans work for some time now. As a personal trainer and nutrition coach, I cant tell you how much he has helped my understanding of how to get my clients results. Nothing I have ever tried in my career works as well as following a low carbohydrate diet. I am so grateful for Dr. Bikman for writing this book, and I hope it helps many, many people.
