Preventing Obesity: The Myth of Calorie Counting - with Dr. Fung | The Empowering Neurologist EP.156
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 тра 2024
- What should we eat? I ask this question in the context of the incredible rates of obesity that we are now seeing, virtually worldwide. Today we will spend time with Dr. Jason Fung author of the book The Obesity Code. This is a landmark book that powerfully lays out why we are continuing to gain weight. It dispels the notion that dietary fat threatens to make us gain weight as well as the unfounded idea of calories in versus calories out as an explanation for why we gain weight.
Dr. Fung clearly focuses on the importance of the hormone, insulin, in terms of obesity, and certainly in terms of diabetes as well. He outlines a very straightforward plan that is in perfect alignment with current science. This interview is one of the most fundamental as a relates to the science of weight loss and regaining control over our blood sugar.

Dr. Fung, you changed the course of my health. My grandchildren thank you. Thank you so such for sharing your knowledge, direct and simple. Sugar bad, eggs good.😂
Dr Fung not only had the insight to recognize the root cause of diabetic kidney disease, but the courage to speak out against the conventional wisdom, which was just about treating the symptoms. Top man.
47:28 Dr. Fung changed my life. I lost 40 pounds went from obese to healthy weight; pre-diabetic to normal A1C.
Listening to Dr. Fung when I first learned I had diabetes was instrumental on me understanding that this was NOT a progressive and chronic disease. I listened to everything I could from him and have turned my life into something so much better. I reversed my diabetes through LCHF diet, intermittent fasting (some prolonged fasts as well), and exercise. I went from an A1C of 13.2 at the end of June 2022 to 5.5 in January of 2023. I also happened to lose 36kg (80lbs.) so I guess by following his guidance it has cost me to lose a full wardrobe of bigger size clothing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Dr. Fung! I would be in very bad shape and getting worse if I'd listen to my current GP.
Congratulations! Even most regular doctors don’t give the same advice that Dr. Fung does for solving the problem at the root cause. They just put us on medicine, mask our symptoms, and never explain the real causes of the problem. They are, therefore, gradually helping to kill us. This problem affects multi millions, if not billions, in the world. But only a select few know the truth. Where’s the media on this?
Good work! Keep it up :).
Yes!! Congratulations to you! Awesome 👍
In 6 months losing 36 kilo’s? That’s awesome
You have cheated the medical industry of the money they expected from you.
I eliminated carbohydrates/sugars, started fasting for 18h and occasionally OMAD, zero processed foods, exercise every day, and natural supplements to lower glucose and others to increase metabolism and muscle. My glycated hemoglobin went from 8.5 to 5.7 in 3 months.
Prof Tim Noakes is a legend. So glad you gave him credit!
My father-in-law was a renowned family practice doctor in the 70s and 80s. He became so obsessed over reducing his heart attack risk through lowering his fat intake that he began to strive for a zero fat diet, following it for a number of years. He eventually developed Alzheimers and became completely dependent on a 'girlfriend' - who embezzled most of his life savings. A very sad story that has reverberated down through all of his descendents. And it is just one among many. This whole low-fat debacle has cost us dearly as a nation.
Hi Sheila … my Nana who lived until she was 106 ate animal fat all her life … butter/ dripping / cream … I once asked her about this and she said she didn’t want to starve her brain !! … she had a fantastic memory up until the day she passed away.
Jim Fox ... embraced the marathon culture,and wrote several books...his father and grandfather died of a heart attacks at exactly age 50....so after over 20 years of the running lifestyle...he finally died of a heart attack at age 51.....the medical society immediately said (you see it's all genetic)....the runners world magazine rebuttal was ...(what are you talking about...he gained an extra year of life from running)....there are pros and cons in everything....the majority of centennials are meat eaters
Exactly, Sheila. I saw an interview on Dr Anthony Chaffee's channel where this man at the assisted living homes he owned was helping the elderly with a change of diet...off of carbohydrates. The changes have been miraculous, including memory improvement and a few of the residents even getting to go back to their homes or with their families. Diet is so important. Everyone should take note of your post.
So sad to Here 🥺 your story
That’s for sure Sugar is the poison but of course the Pharma ,Kellogg and cereal company is the consumers enemy. Dr. Fung is one of those honest doctor.
It’s been “burned “ into our minds that we always have to be eating, which is completely far from the truth . I’m so blessed I found Dr Fung , my son and I have lost so much with intermittent fasting! Thank you so much Dr Fung 👍🏽👍🏽🙏🏼
Starving the body from lack of nutrients is bad for the body and the digestive system,which needs to be constantly flushed out......an occasional short 16 hour faste is much better than a multiple day faste.
U can eat whenever u want as long as u get right nutrients and keep calories in check
who burned it in to your mind, don't watch cooking shows and tv adds. i work all the time and only eat to give me energy to work. too many people live to eat rather than eat to live..
@@mslice09fasting is not starvation. It is true that some people should not fast (meaning that they are already severely malnourished and are at a very low bodyweight/fat-stores) but generally speaking, in our extremely overweight society, a properly done fast is almost like a fountain of youth (stimulating autophagy). You should look into what happens during a 48- and 72-hour fast...it is almost like a brain reset. Extremely beneficial and rejuvenating. 👌✌️
The one-two punch of doctors. Doctor Perlmutter and Doctor Fung in my humble opinion are the two best doctors at explaining the effects of nutrition on health. Thank you good doctors.
Once a year I come to check on Dr. Perlmutter. This man is still glowing and his jawline is sharper than last time. All that aside, I learned a lot from Dr. Fung years ago and I integrated it into my life with great results. Thank you both. 💕
That jawline and his eyes (perpetually blinking) have had some work done on them...
My fat doctor kept telling me everything in moderation, when I told him I went carnivore. I recently saw him for a routine exam and was surprised when he said he had lost 20 pounds in four months after going low carb. :)
Kudos to you for speaking out and your doctor for listening!
Yes, glad to hear your doctor was humble enough to learn from you.
My doctor (not fat, but traditional) had a similar response when I dropped 25LBS. She said every patient promises to lose weight and nobody actually does.
@D For now, ignore the LDL reading and work on lowering TRIG. by going low carb keto or zero carb carnivore. As it is TRIG is high because the body is overloaded with fat. There is nowhere for it to go. Switch diet to low or zero carb forces your body to start using body fat, reducing TRIG.
DR. FUNG makes a lot of sense, incredible information
Love dr Jason Fung ! Thanks for having him 🙏🏻🌹✨🙏🏻
Jason, great info on diabetes. Been listening to you for 2 years, applying the principles of reversing sugar. I’m now off insulin taking no meds now.
Fantastic!!!
Thank you. We (my husband and myself) followed The fast 800 diet for 12 weeks (we'd been Intermittent Fasting for 5 years) and I dialed myself back from DT2. We both lost 2+ kilos. We both lost belly fat and centimetres. It takes commitment and is not cheap. Carbs are cheap and quick to prepare. I have an auto-immune disease, on steroids, fatty liver, so still struggling with obesity.
What about all those POOR drug companies. If people begin to improve their health with healthy food those poor companies will lose revenue!
My French doctor here in France has not caught up with the low carb research. I hope he does one day. He still believes fat makes us fat and he's not an old Dr.
Calorie excess makes us fat. Not 1 particular macronutrient. U can lose fat by eating carbs or fats or anytjing. Just be in caloric deficit
Wonderfully encouraging! I don't have diabetes but after doing alot of research intermittent fasting is my new lifestyle and I feel great
That's the only way to go if you want to keep you weight down.
All roads lead to.......quietly dumping sugar from your diet.
and bread and veg oil
I am a registered dietitian ; I can tell you in our profession; people believe IF and time restricted eating is extreme. No what’s extreme is 1/3 people obese, 1/3 people diabetic That’s extreme!!!!
The dietitians who seem to get time by the media all seem to advise people to eat lots of whole grains, fruits and vegetables, and reduce the fat consumption. That has not worked since the first time someone said to eat more grains and yet dietitians continue to say it. Why?
Dietitians promote a varied diet focused on protein, vegetables, whole grains, beans, nuts, seeds, olive oil, avocados and some dairy products. They emphasize whole grains as a healthy part of a diet which is true, we work directly with the public and often find they are consuming way to many processed foods, fast foods etc, so dietitians who get media time give a good I sight to a healthy diet, a varied unprocessed diet. They/we recommend whole unrefined grains like oatmeal, rice, whole grain breads and pastas, and if a balanced you can consume those foods; take a look at the Mediterranean diet. Thanks.
RIP Dr. Hallberg 😢🙏
She was an amazingly brilliant physician who helped so many people with her groundbreaking work.
Indeed
Ok, another testimonial about the positive effects of intermittent fasting/eating.
7 weeks ago ( after a mildly successful couple months with Noom, lost 10 pounds ), I came upon a video on fasting by Dr Fung. I watched the video, and I liked the video. I decided I was going to try intermittent fasting.
The day after my watching Dr Fung's video on fasting I skipped breakfast ( phew, what a relief, I've never been hungry in the mornings and ate in the mornings because I've heard my whole life it's the most important meal of the day ) and had 2 meals. 2 delicious nutritious meals - whole foods, animal meat, plants, veggies, nuts, water ( just started adding fermented foods.)
Since my first day of 2 meals a day, an avg of 17:7 fast/eat window - it's been 45 days.
45 days ago - 212lbs , 5'10" male 43yrs old
Today - 189.5lbs , I'm still 5'10", I'm still male, but 2 months older.
22.5 lbs of dropped water, and fat and whatever else - in 45 days ( 1 month and Half ) by eating 2 meals a day with virtually no snacking and only water and coffee!!!
I have high percentage dark cocoa chocolate 70% and higher with natural peanut butter sometimes when I'm hungry in between meals. I add sweetener to my coffee with heavy cream every day ( the sweetener is awful for me but I'm sugar addicted and thought to tread carefully here, and so I still have some sugar.) When I really feel I need it ( which is rare ) I'll have processed carbs like an occasional cookie, or slice(s) of bread. But much much much less than before.
I have hypothyroidism, and take a pill every morning.
I've done a couple 24hr fasts in my 45 days.
IVE LOST 22.5 POUNDS IN A MONTH AND A HALF. - after eating terribly, absolutely terribly for the last 2 years ( was going through personal trauma and ate for dopamine hits.)
A reversal this quick, by ......
1. Skipping the most important meal of the day ( sarcasm ), 17:7 fast, eat window
2. Consume less sugar and refined Carbs by approx 80/85%
3. Eat delicious, real, whole foods ( not processed ) from the earth. Steaks, chicken, salmon, Brazilian nuts, rainbow of veggies, fermented foods. I take occasional fiber supplement , the only supplement I take called Inulin.
4. Respecting the process. At first I indulged in more sugar and carbs. Of course I did. I had been my whole life 43 yrs. I'm a food junkie. So I reminded myself to be patient. When I stumbled, I would assure myself that till the next meal I would commit to staying clean. Patience.
5. I have to include Marc Sisson. I read 2 meals a day before Obesity code - and Marc and his Co writter were the first to make me believe that I could do this. And I have. I did it.
There were some bumps in the road of course, but I stayed on track. Now, when I feel pressured to eat something I don't prefer to put in my mouth ( I.e your invited to someone's home and don't wish to be rude ) I say fck it, and I eat whatever I want, KNOWING, that I'm armed with fasting in my arsenal. So I indulge and fast away my indulgences within a couple days!!!! Metabolic Flexibility is the name for that !!!!!!
Hey you don't believe us?? Just try it.
Goodluck
Thanks for sharing.
noom is garbage
Years ago I remember reading in fitness magazines, “ If you switch from an automatic transmission to a standard transmission, you will loose 10 lbs. in the course of a year! 😀 I switched from an average of 4 cans of soda to 4 cans of diet soda a day, and after 1 year lost 0.00 lbs.! Cut 600 calories a day - zilch!
cuz calories are a hoax :D
Insulin made my Mama worse sugar wise and weight gain when she struggled to begin with. She went down hill quickly once she was on insulin!!😪
Two of my favorite people answering questions about diet... I hope you do it more often to bring this to light. I've heard this information before, but told it in a different way, always good to hear it again.
I was literally thinking the same thing!
by listening to dr Fung adviced, I managed to reversed my t2d with 7 a1c to 4,7 a1c in 8 months and lost 20 kg.
Thank you, dr Fung
Interesting fact: in bodybuilding, immediately after weight training, for muscle building purposes it’s beneficial to drink fast digesting protein along with insulin spiking sugar like dextrose. I used to do it regularly, never gained weight but gave me cavities so had to switch to an alternative.
In order to remain anabolic, the general idea was to eat slow digesting protein along with low glycemic carbs/fat throughout the day. Noticing where your body puts what you consume matters for results.
Wow… I am a huge fan of yours now!!! You are speaking my language! Not from a vocabulary standpoint, as I had to look up about 14 words from your presentation on a different channel, lol, but from a genuinely intelligent and inquisitive human whom simply wants to empower others to take back their lives from going down the wrong pathways. Love and health to you good Doctor! You are a blessing. You remind me in looks and demeanor of my Mom and Dads Cardiologist Dr. Brian Donahue. He’s a great Doctor as you are and I wonder if he knows of you. I’m going to ask him next time I take my parents to see him. He’s from the Pittsburgh area UPMC.
I was hoping to hear a discussion about uric acid .. Dr Perlmutter's new book "Drop Acid" and Dr Fung as a nephrologist would both know a lot about this interesting new hypothesis. Ditching fructose is the key once again.
👏 brilliant explanation
Whenever I feel like eating snacks I always turn on to Fungs' video and listen to his talk on junk food and how they spike bsl. Thanks doctor
Thanks !!!! 50% over weight by 2030, YIKES!!!! Excellent information
Great interview with Dr. Fung! Thank you!!!
That is what I've always thought! How sad when people that work in Health care look sicker than me! So how are they going to help me? Great video! 💞love you both!
Excellent interview. Thank you!
Great information and conversation! Thank you!
Dr Fung is right. Context and amount matter. I have a half cup of blueberries or blackberries with my unsweetened full fat Greek yogurt once or twice a week. That's good, I get vitamins, fiber and variety in my diet without too much of a carbohydrate load. Drinking a lot of juice or several bananas would be different.
I squeeze a little bit of lemon juice in my yogurt.
The low fat yogurt is garbage
@@kareenodum1734 I said full fat unsweetened Greek yogurt. Where do you see me advocating for low fat yogurt?
@@Kyarrix Sorry must have miss read it. Thought it read low fat.
This was such an interesting and informative discussion. Thank you very much.
I dont count calories. I just reduced my carbs drastically and upped protein and fat. I get full pretty easily now.
You guys are awesome thanks for sharing your knowledge you’re both great speakers. I am learning a lot. There is so much more to learn.
When I went through college of medicine, we sure did not learn anything like this. Your talks and podcasts should be requirement in medical school. We have not been practicing medicine and just like you said tx sx not the disease. I wish I had known as 20 30 years ago.
I’ve been fasting clean for a little over a month. Had a 20 oz Coke Zero and the flood gates for sugar cravings soared! I have to be very careful with artificial sweeteners as much as sugar.
One, of many, problems with sugar addiction, anything sweet tasting triggers it! I’m trying to cut all sweet tastes, but it’s tough.😢
The words shared are very meaningful and sincere
And these lying doctors gets a nomination every year, while the Honest doctors like Jason and a few gets laughed at for speaking the truth. I’m 48, fasting, and never felt better. Give these gentlemen a nomination!
Reading 'The Obesity Code' changed my life. Big Jason Fung fan!
Fructose... Guided missile...goes straight to the liver. Loved that!! 🤣🤣
Great information on getting better health.
Brilliant talk!!💐💐thank you!
I love to listen to this knowledgeable and pleasant person. I very much love your podcast also
A great podcast that explains a still misunderstood problem.
2 of my favorite doctors ❤️💪💪
I have been struggling with Diabetes for 30 years, I now do intermittent fasting 16/8 and I am in Mounjaro ,trying to do better,riding my recumbent bike 4 miles a day, three times a week, thanks for sharing
Hi! Kudos to you to start intermittent fasting. Have you check out dr fung channel. I came across dr fung channel by accident and followed his tips and advices I lost 17 lbs in 4 months. If you read the comments from dr fung channel you will see people with diabetes were able to reverse their diabetes and get off their medications. Good luck!
Interesting discussion
Thank you!
Conny from Sweden
Thank you! Dr Fung makes sense to me.
Good show, I'm a subscriber.
It's so hard to watch what you eat, & calorie control when there's a fast food restaurant on every other block, everywhere you look!!
Dr. Fung keeps it simple ,and it works .
such a clearly spoken podcast. I understood it all. Everything made sense. Thank you both.
they the food industries that pay for studies demonized the wrong fat , they never demonized seed oils or Crisco and margarine.
Excellent video, very informative. Blessings from Puebla, Mexico.
👍 Thanks for posting! 😊
Thanks doctor for videos that give alots information about type 2 diabetes
I like to listen to people who changed my life for the better.
Dr. Fung's book, "The Obesity Code" is an incredible compilation of current science and lay-person friendly explanations of both obesity and type 2 diabetes. Thanks for this informative interview and discussion with Dr. Fung. I bought several copies of his book and gave them to family members a couple of years ago. (Retired Internist here.) :)
WOW Great and wonderful and useful Information I told my doctor About this he was against this he is no longer my doctor I am loving IF….Thank You Dr. Fung..I will be checking out your Channel, Dr. P.
Hospitals, doctors offices and schools should be places where good nutrition is taught and provided not places that contribute to disease and obesity. It is crazy the hospitals are feeding people the very food that caused the heart disease, high blood pressure or cancer that they are treating. Every person in the hospital should receive some nutrition education before being released. Every doctor visit should be an opportunity to educate patients about how food choices impacts their health outcomes. The fact that doctors do not get nutrition training as part of their training makes no sense. Medicare and Medicaid should require nutrition education as part of patient care. Focus should be on food choices. Fasting should be investigated as a treatment for disease.
Two of my favorite doctors
Dr Fung is a bonafide legend. Go watch all his lectures, take mental notes and try to understand your basic engineering. You owe it to yourself.
This should be everyone's healthy living lifestyle. If you don't cut out ALL SUGARS and things that convert into sugars, don't do long term intermittent fasting of 16/24+ hours which is the most important recommendation on this list or don't get enough good sleep (don't eat past 6:00pm) you will not lose the bad fat weight nor gain the good muscle wight effectively, nor create a healing environment for the body to heal itself because you're limiting the bodies ability to produce HGH which helps make testosterone which does all sorts of wonderful things in the body. When I eat I eat high good fatty meats like a good 6oz rib eye steak with all the fat, whole eggs, fermented foods such as kimchi, butter, uncurred bacon, salmon, sardines, oysters, avacado, cheeses, healthy oils like olive healthy nuts like Almonds, Brazil, Chestnuts, Brazil, Hazelnuts, Macadamia nuts, Pecans, Pine nuts, sea salt, and if I'm in the mood for plant based foods I make sure they are of the cruciferous variety. Also the introduction of Boron in your diet also helps with the production of free testosterone along with, chlorella which is a natural algae that is purported to remove heavy metals and toxins from the body, along with Zinc 50mg, D3 10,000 iu, Magnesium, Niacin and maintaining a good gut flora with probiotics. I add additional vitamins such as trace minerals in my diet if I find I'm deficient in any one in particular.
The point about diet soda causing weight gain makes total sense. I didn't drink diet soda for two weeks and I had no cravings for junk food and I felt so much leaner after such short period of time. I really should quit drinking it once and for all.
His guidance sure changed my life. I have questions about extended Fasts. Does anyone know where to find those answers? Most info is about IF and OMAD
Dr u r the best 🌷🌷🌷🌷
My grandmother died 103 with type I since age of 40, never had any insulin injection, never had more than 1.00 glucose in blood, she managed it with artichoke and topinambour, she took metformin I think, that's all. She basically had zero insulin in her blood, so insulin is optional. She looked obese, but I realise today that she was metabolically healthy.
Metformin is medication for diabetes.
@@judithhopes151 a low dose of this might be included for healthy people to slow down aging.
I doubt she had Type One Diabetes but she had Type Two - otherwise, she would lose weight & her muscles would waste away. It causes organ failure , blindness , losing one’s limbs & death without any insulin being available in one’s body made by the pancreas . Metformin is for Type 2 Diabetics .
@@heidivernathorbjrnsen4745 while she lived 102 I never saw a blood test with other than zero insulin. She was functioning like that. I don't know if she had type I or II buy anyhow her pancreatic head islets of langerhans did not show trace of its presence in blood tests. She always was mild obese and always had the mindset of a tank.
I eat whenever I´m hungry, but I don`t eat sugar for decades and no bread since 12 months ago, the main meals are lot`s of vegetables (up to 1 kg/day) with meat and oliveoil, no carbs...in the morning or between some oats with apple and curd cheese and/or fatty yoghurt, in summary mostly ~ 150g oats/day in ~ 3 portions, (= 25 -30% carbs ) with veggies I estimate ~ up to 40-45 %....I don`t expect any substantiell bloodglucose spike and fat storage ever from ~ 50g Oats buffered with fat/protein.... lost a little weight, 61 yrs 71kg, BMI 20,7
I don`t eat any processed food/carbs...and oats are much cheaper...
Some other opinion I heard, by consuming carbs, processed and/or in higher quantity you better do intermed.fasting. We burn some 100 kcal/hour, every excess goes to body fat, by slow impact of low glycemic load and muscle activity there is no excess. Of course, if your "snacks" are 600kcal pure crap...some 450kcal goes to fat storage.
Love the ballpen ASMR.
💚🏜 so awesome to hear a fresh discussion from two of my favorite doctors!
wow!!!! thank you
Last night I had strawberries after dinner and now blueberries after lunch. Yum
I purchase them frozen to ration them sparingly and reduce spoilage.
My problem this week was making whipped cream; I went thru 2 pints of HWC and gained a few pounds.
Lesson learned
For me, the cream is not an issue, fruit makes me gain. Fructose is a bad thing in my world. Sets off a spike that in turn creates other reactions.
@@gailstrickland221 it can be easy to drink your calories, they don't trigger the same satiation as solid food. I sometimes have full fat milk fortified with extra cream after exercise but it can be easy to overdo it.
Excellent discussion
Could have addressed correct foods that work best. Address issues for vegetarians and what works for them
Thanks 😇
Very good lecture I could say. I would just add the knowledge that each one has their personal fat threshold and each one has their own insulin grade of secretation genetically determined. Thats why 2 people eatong exactly the same food and doing the same things may gain fat diferently
Most health professionals don't think, they memorize and repeat
I watch net carbs of GREAT food and am starting the fasting. Process. I a, really feel😮ng good. Today I am at 16 hiyrs..not a lot but busy and ok. But I had a big meal at midnight because I was busy. And I had a steak sautéed mushrooms and egg. And some milk poured whole milk. Thank you. And I went to sleep but I got up this morning and I am feeling really good and it’s now about 3 PM and I will probably do a 20 hour fast and then Nibble on some good stuff and feel better. And maybe take a nap which sounds good.
Sure seems like Health Insurance Companies and Medicare would be receptive to a WFPB vegan message.
It would save them money on health care costs. This could off set the lobbying by food manufacturers.
Maybe educating health Insurance Companies and Medicare administrators should be a priority.
Health Insurance companies might even push doctors to take nutrition more seriously by paying for nutrition counseling of patients.
The background noises are too loud to keep listening. Just wanted to mention that.
This was years ago that I don’t even want to tell my PCP what hurts otherwise I will have like 10 px after. Everytime you tell him something he has tons of different px for it. He has his px pad with him all the time.
Angel of nutrition
As someone who does a lot of research on nutrition, this is very interesting. What I am wondering is, is there any research on ketosis lowering insulin resistance?
Yes , that’s one of the mechanisms of ketosis is not needing higher insulin levels to put glucose into cells . You use an alternative source of energy called Ketones that doesn’t need insulin too much at all . It helps one pull out fat stores too to use for energy & lose weight & defat one’s liver .
Remember whatever they ate decades ago had no preservative, no additives. My italian grandparents would NEVER EVER eat fast crappy food nor eat in restaurants, they would eat at weddings of course. Everything was fresh, grew their own veggies their own poultry. I knew a woman, 92 still driving herself to church, mowing her own lawn, slim in her blue jeans.
Dr. Perlmutter, I just received an email from you inviting me to download your free ebook on diabetes. A dated disappointment -
The "new study" mentioned in your free gift is from 2015, the references are from 2013 and earlier, and no mention is made of Dr. Hallberg's tragic passing, even though she is featured in this publication.
Q - Is it really a good idea to recirculate old stuff in a rapidly-evolving field?
Hello, I need a little guide here, My Dad is already doing dialysis. How can I improve that condition if the damage is already done? I changed my lifestyle 5 years ago, but I couldn't change his because we are in different countries at the moment. I just wonder if at this point is something that can be done to improve his condition
I would love to hear Dr fungs view on the book ( mastering diabetes). They have been curing diabetes on a high carb, low fat diet
High in starch and fruit
11:59 : similarly reducing a fever with acetaminophen can make an infection worse.
31:50. I laughed at that one.😃
Great video! But what is that clicking noise??
Worst thing I did was to listen to my doctors sorry doctors but i kept saying to them i feel better when I eat fat and butter and they told me I was wrong thank the universe i kept on doing my own thing and never gained weight like all my friends did
I changed doctors when mine said that said diabetes is not reversible, there's nothing you can do. Wish I hadn't wasted four years seeing her.
I was hoping to hear some focus on the role that uric acid plays in all of this. After all, Dr perlmutter did write the book Drop Acid.
Does food aroma help with satiety? I’ve been doing real food and eschewing processed food since the beginning of 2023. I’ve noticed when I cook with ghee and Asian sesame oil, the aroma seems to make me feel a little fuller before eating.
Good interview but it would be good to ask Dr fung different questions
Calorie counting is a myth, yet 100% of the time when they test it in a lab under controlled conditions, it works perfectly.
But who lives in a lab and how long is the lab residence, 5 weeks, 5 years?
@@anomarnamloh7444 There is only so long you can conduct metabolic ward experiments as they are expensive. People aren't going to stay there unless you are paying them well. However no matter who they bring in. No matter what health conditions they have or they are perfectly healthy. The law of CICO applies and works perfectly 100% of the time when tested. IT is amazing what happens when you measure things accurately and even more so when people are unable to cheat.
@@Ryan_DeWitt
I think even these two gifted men would have difficulty counting the cals.
So no it dont work.
Plus we all know they never bring back all the biggest losers cos they cant maintain the wacky
Low cal stuff.
A lab and a human body are not the same.
@@ClassicJukeboxBand And yet the human body requires energy to operate. What happens when one feeds the human body more energy than it needs? What happens when one doesn't feed it enough energy?
I think it’s funny when he interrupts Dr. Fung and they talk at the same time🤣
I’m sitting here watching this now. I was hungry about 1 PM. But I knew into the fasting. So that was only 11 hours. So I had to water. And I settled back down and I’m listening to stuff. And probably in a few hours, I will go in and go out couple people of pieces of fish and gum Plan of some good food to eat later. I won’t over ate. But I will eat until I am full… I am also a slow eater. So I can eat for 20 minutes and when I reach that point my brain says OK you’re done I’m good. I don’t got the food unless I think I am starving. And that’s when my blood sugars would and go ape shit.
No word about nutrients. Just carbs VS everything else?
What if someone eat at breakfast:
