Dr. Jason Fung earned his medical degree from the University of Toronto, where he also completed his residency in Internal Medicine before going to UCLA for a fellowship in Nephrology, a medical field focused on the kidneys. He currently practices as a kidney specialist in Toronto.

In response, he founded the Intensive Dietary Management program to provide a unique treatment approach for type 2 diabetes and obesity that promotes simple yet effective dietary changes rather than focusing on medications.
