The Hunger Code by Dr Jason Fung
The Hunger Code is a practical guide to understanding why people feel hungry, why cravings can be difficult to manage and why lasting changes to eating habits may involve more than calorie counting or discipline.
Dr Jason Fung examines the roles of hormones, digestion, emotional eating, social influences and the modern food environment. The book presents these ideas in straightforward language, helping readers look more closely at what may be shaping appetite and food choices.
Rather than treating hunger as a simple lack of self-control, The Hunger Code offers a broader framework for understanding eating behaviour and building more sustainable habits.
