Book Summary

Why We Get Sick explores the idea that insulin resistance is the underlying factor behind many modern chronic diseases, including obesity, diabetes, heart disease, infertility, Alzheimer’s, and certain cancers. Dr. Benjamin Bikman explains how modern diets high in refined carbohydrates and processed foods, combined with sedentary lifestyles and chronic stress, overload the body with insulin. Over time, cells stop responding properly to insulin, triggering systemic inflammation, hormonal disruption, and metabolic dysfunction. The book outlines how insulin resistance develops, how it affects virtually every organ system, and why it often goes undiagnosed. Bikman also provides practical strategies to reverse or prevent insulin resistance—such as reducing sugar and starch intake, increasing healthy fats and protein, managing stress, and improving sleep and exercise routines. Overall, the book argues that addressing insulin resistance can dramatically improve health, energy, and longevity.
