- What breaks a fast? Does tea, or coffee or cream or sugar break the fast? How about diet soda? Dr Jason Fung discusses what you can take during a fast and how this affects weight loss. These fasting variations can still be very effective for weight loss. Check out my blog at / drjasonfung

I want to do fasting but when I do fast eight hours. I am 51 years old my body is shivering when I am not eating 🍱 food How I can control this
What about apple cider vinegar, will it break a fast?
Dr. Fung I know you said creamer is ok but what about Sugar free creamer like 3tbs or Italian sugar free creamer ? I try to do black but I just can’t 😔
Hi Dr Fung, I know you said you’ll go into autophagy another time but do electrolyte salts block autophagy on extended water fasts?
Dr. Fung, do you think drinking 8ozs of chicken bullion (1 tsp in 8oz of water) would break my fast? I use Knorr chicken bullion. Thank you.
*Changed my life. I will never eat the same ever again. "Unless you physically trip and your face lands in a box **weightlose.fitness** of donuts, there is no such thing as a 'slip'." Get that mind set and you'll win again and again.*
What u say is so helpful to me.. i just started n missing my varuval etc
I usually only eat beef, butter, bacon, and eggs. On occasion chicken thighs or wings, and salmon. My weight is very good.Im 55 years young. I feel like I'm aging backwards really.
This is Sooooooooooooooooo true,,,,,,,,, but it doesn't only apply to food.. I use to make fun of people that were cheaters on their spouse.. (youtube will censor if I use the word for it) The excuse everyone uses when caught is "It was an accident" ..... They just happen to accidently both be naked in a bedroom all by themselves, and accidently fall into said bed and....... you get the rest of the accidents that happened..... Its a matter of what is important to you.. Not only physically but morally.... We have become a morally bankrupt nation and I believe it was done on purpose.
I am 190 I always been 145 my whole life at one point lower than that I've gained over 50 lbs in the last 4 years and now that I am engaged I am wanting more to be healthy again. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx5VQ5nUzHu6i0O5_u7ipyLnCz0lbsSvr0 I am not fat but I am thick and have muscle. I am very close to how you were but a lil smaller but I am so sick people making comments to me like I'm huge or like you said having shorts that used to be so cute on me and now I can't even find a pair to fit me. I used to love shopping now I don't even want to go to the store and if I do I pick the biggest size don't even try it on and deal with it. I went from size 5 to size idk because I don't even want to know the real number. I hate looking at pics of myself now or me before. thank you for your video it's time to make a change.
You can do it girl!
Waking up with an empty stomach is THE BEST thing ever! Fasting was my solution to night time snacking. Falling asleep without new food in my stomach makes it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep!
Dr Fung, it is my experience that hunger isn’t a big issue when fasting. It is the emotional attachment to food that causes the battle.
Thank you Dr. Fung for sharing my journey. Fasting is life changing. I feel better now at 57 than I did in my 30's.
What about alcohol? Wine?
@@maureenfallucca1530 only when my window is open I drink glass of wine.
Great!
@@mauricioaguilar5683 Thank you🙂
I stopped drinking any diet drinks when I noticed that my joints ache when I do. I feel that it's the aspartame.
True. My scale didn't budge for a full month, but my pants were loose, belly flatter, etc. It drove me crazy! About the 5th week my scale started the incredibly slow downward movement. I'm only down 5 pounds in five weeks, but it is happening. Hang in there, everyone. Sticking with it costs you nothing.
Hi Jen. I have been looking for good information on the subject of fasting and this Dr knows his stuff. I am going to start my fasting journey this weekend. I have always had an iffy relationship with food. Main problem is I like to too much lol. I wish you lots of success with your weight loss!
@@nevermore4971 I wish you success. Remember to be patient and that you will never lose any weight by giving up. The hard part for me was giving up red wine. It's worth it, because I feel pretty terific!! Go for it.
Yeah, it's crazy how you can go several days without food, and the needle doesn't budge. THEN all of a sudden the weight starts sliding off!!
Every time I look at the scale and it's hardly moved I tell myself I didn't gain the weight over night so I won't lose it over night either. I don't know why that works for me but it keeps me out of the refrigerator.
Your body’s may be retaining water. Electrolytes, trace minerals and even just straight salt into your water helped me a lot. Also cleared up headaches
Thank you Dr Fung. I started two weeks ago at 350lbs and I’m doing the 16:8 fast and I’m down to 334lbs this morning. I’m exercising each day too. I’m grateful for your help and advice
Did you continue? How are you doingdadslyfe1267?
Awesome sauce!
What is 16:8?
@@RC-vh8id It's when you only eat in an 8 hr window which means you fast for 16hrs. I, for example, do an 18:6. I eat at noon and 6:00 pm which has me fasting for 18hrs a day.
@@TrevorPawlik thank you!
Husband doesn’t support me but I support me !
Time to rethink the husband
Food , eating can be seen as threatening even a weapon to use against someone. Perhaps your changing your eating habits are bringing up an issue in your husband's life he is using procrastination to not deal with. Maybe ask him if there is something you can do to support him in that he may want to challenge himself with? Then share your progress together not apart.

@@gstlynxThank you so much for motivation.
@@erinhiner4540You're doing great..keep rolling👍
August 19th 2020, I was at 255 pounds. I saw Dr Fung on you tube. I have been on 18/6 fast ever since. I also eat a keto/carnavor diet. As of today January 24 2021 I weigh 195 pounds. 25 pounds to my goal. Thank you Dr Fung!!
Excellent!
Congratulations!
Thanks, I was hoping to inspire others to try and become healthy again.
That's amazing, keep up the good work. I'm hoping to start a fasting regime tomorrow. All these amazing stories really motivate me to give it a try.
@@scottmcanea you can do it. I chose to eat between the hours of 12 noon and 6pm. That way I am sleeping for alot of the fast and eat when I normally would. Cheeseburgers, bacon and eggs, hotdogs, Barbecue without sauce. Use real butter to cook with or the bacon grease. Stay busy in the morning. Exercise during the fast to increase growth hormones and testosteron. Good luck!!
I’m only a week into this. I’m doing low carb and three 36 hour fasts per week. I have type 2 diabetes and I’m 70+ pounds over weight. I’m 54 and have two kids that are National class athletes. I’m counting on this to extend my life and enable me to interact better with my young adult kids. So far so good. I’m feeling optimistic about this process. Wish me luck!
You are on the road to good health!
All the best to you and others who are doing IF .
Best of luck 👍
Admire your determination.
How this doing? I am also on ADF for a month now. How much did u lose?
I started fasting after a cancer diagnosis and I feel so much better. Mixing it with keto. 18:6
did it heal you from your cancer please?
It took me 3 tries over 18 months, but once I stuck to it I lost 75 pounds in 20 weeks. I did 8/16 plan
Congratulations 👍
way to go Kevin!!!!
Wow!
So during the eating time did you calorie count? Or did you eat what you wanted?
Did you get some carbohydrate in eating time...?
Everyone seems to forget about white tea. It is the youngest of the tea leaves, has the lowest caffeine but the most antioxidants. It is a very mild tasting tea.
I LOVE white tea!
Yes white tea is so refreshing. I love it.xx
Have never heard of white tea! Thanks so much for that tip - will try and source it ASAP..🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@heatheranderson8204 are you in the UK, because Twinings do a really nice white tea with pomegranate.xx
White tea is my favorite 😆
Intermittent and water fasting has *changed my life!*
So far, I've shed 43lbs 👏 I just recently completed my 72hr water fast and I felt amazing. I would've gone for longer but I didn't wanna push it yet.
_Fasting is amazing_
I'm hoping to do the same!
IF (Intermittent fasting) truly is.
I just love your non condemning Attitude
Answer: you can have a little creamer, coffee, tea, vitamin D, salt water. This guy seems very kind so I’m subscribing.
Glad you found him! Welcome on board!
He has helped me so much. I really like that he gives actual case studies and shows in depth research to back up what he says.
Yh that's we should all be with ourselves..a little something will not harm the process. I used to be very upset and beat myself up if i have a coffee during my fast but i no longer feel bad about it. I just call it a modified fast
So a bit of normal milk with tea?
@@stuffedturkey12 my understanding is that if you save $100 but then you spend five you have still saved $95. Milk will set you back but it won’t set you back to pre-fasting.
Thank you Dr. Fung. I was a lifelong over eater,binge eater and all around load! A chance viewing of one of your videos while surfing UA-cam changed my life. I started omad in august and never looked back. So far have lost 75 pounds and rarely am I hungry. Also started hiit and never have I felt or looked better. Oh yeah, I'm 64 yo. You saved my life and that's no exaggeration.
Can you share what you would eat with your Omad, please. Thanks
How did u stop the mental battles with food?
What is OMAD?
@@ButterflygirlKarla OMAD is One Meal A Day, a form of fasting
@@kimdube2440 my question! I keep reading and watching and o hear it all the time of the benefits but no one tells me mentally what to tell yourself! I am trying so freaking hard but I can’t stop eating at 7 I can at 8 and that I have success with but if I stop at 6 or 7 I get up at 2 or 3 and eat and at that time my mind is not wanting to fast. Idk I am a night eater but feel like crap when I do!! I am lost

In Bulgaria there is a traditional 3 days dry fast at the end of 40days vegan regime before Easter. It was practiced very strictly before 1950's.

I know this is an old video but my God I found it so helpful as I’ve just started my fasting journey….. I decided to go big and did 40 hours last week and I really enjoyed it… so I had two days of normal eating and last night I started my second 40 hour fast, now I’m about to go bed I’m gonna wake up I’ll be have a few hours and I can eat again fasting is my new obsession I love it…. i’ve already lost 5 lb my skin is glowing I’ve loads of energy and I’m exercising every day what is not too love…. to be fair I’m not large I’ve only got about 6 lb to lose to be my ideal body weight..
40 hours, that is impressive I thought I was killing it hitting 20 hours. Yikes.........I do not think i can do 40.
@@clubmike2910 Well believe it or not I’m now actually up to 62 hours…. and I’ve done that twice but I have to say did not enjoy it I found it far too difficult… i’ve now found my perfect time is 38hr . I’ve now lost a total of 12lbs and I feel fantastic.. in fact I’m doing a fast right now 38 hours and I finish in the morning and I’m looking forward to eating a lovely breakfast.. my skin is glowing still I’m dropping the weight and I feel amazing!! Well done you .. I think the trick is to find what works for you individually as in around your work hours your time off… best of luck and have a wonderful week 🙏
What you do when you get hungry pains?
@@joannegiannitsis3053 I just drink lots of water and try my best to stay busy and go to bed early when I’m fasting … I Also take 2 days off between fast .. I find that helps me greatly.. I’m now at my target weight and I’m delighted…. Hope your doing ok if you are fasting.. let me know how you are getting on.. I love to hear other peoples experiences.. 🙏

I'm doing 18/6 with keto. In week 4. Struggling so much with my energy levels. I hope it gets better soon. I'm at 195 and have 145 as my goal. I had reached 173 a year ago but had to quit because of covid and life circumstances of being thrown into elder care of both parents with rapidly declining health. So stressful. One parent is passed now, so I'm trying to get back on track. It's very important to me that I try.
Your kindness and gentle way of explaining how to improve our health is much appreciated. Congratulations to your parents for doing an amazing job bringing you up. Bless them and bless you.
I started intermittent fasting in September 2019. I sometimes do a 72 hour fast. I cut out sugar pasta bread alcohol. I started jumping rope weight training walking. My starting weight 223 pounds my weight as of today 162 pounds. My lowest weight since I started was 152 pounds but I just thought that was maybe too low so started reducing my fasting window a little. Stopped blood pressure meds my energy is great I feel younger and people say I look like I’m 40 and I’m 57. This really worked for me. There’s rough days at the start, but your health is worth it.
Please pardon the intimate question. How's the skin? Was the weight loss too fast or did everything adjust? Something I worry about for my weight loss partner.
@@somemoresomewhere1262 do you eat rice?
@@somemoresomewhere1262 are you talking about the sagging, baggy, loose skin formerly 'fat' people get once they become skinny? If he was 223 pounds he probably doesn't have loose skin because he was never (fat, fat) to begin with, most likely just chubby. I'm close to 220 in weight and have lost weight before and gained it right back....I didn't get baggy loose skin so imagine its probably the same for this person as well.
@@phuckfumassters
Age makes a difference, and how long at your top weight too.
I'm taking collagen to help mine snap back.
@@waterandafter I had a friend who was 'normal size fat' in the 300-325 lbs range would be my guess, not morbidly obese, but fat since the 6th grade when we met up until his mid 30s when he lost the weight and became slim. He had the baggy/loose skin. But like you said length of time size plus makes a difference with the baggy skin aftermath.
Wow! Very informative and without a sales pitch. No hook! Unheard of in this day and time. Thank you!
Thank you, Dr Fung. You're life saver, I'm practicing One Meal A Day for 4 months now and I'm back to my early twenties again (I'm 64 now). I wish I didn't donate all of my old clothes that now I'm fitting in it. Fasting really give me more freedom of what I can eat. No restriction and no guilt. If I see my weight gain a little, I can increase my fasting time to accommodate it. Works like a charm.
What do you normally eat on your one meal?
@@marciasitonio409 As I'm an Asian, my must have every day is white rice. On top of the rice will be stir fry vegetable with chicken or beef or pork or seafood. I normally use lard and olive oil for cooking.
Dr. Fungi is my favorite Dr. I could not drop one ounce. Since my fasting journey, in about 6 months ago, starting at 168, today I am 139 and reading my goal.. 9 pounds to go. No pills needed, no secrets, not even heavy exercises. Thank you, Dr. Fung.
Dr. Fungi :')
Thank you, I will no longer beat myself up about that occasional little blip that I thought completely ruined my fast 😊
ITS MY 26TH DAY IN FASTING...! FROM 67 KILOS 53FEET HEIGHT TO 58 KILOS 3 MORE KILOS TO GO! THIS IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY I HAVE EVER TRIED! THANK YOU SO MUCH.
This is what I love about you. Eric Berg and Mindy always come across so strict about what you can and can't have during your fast. Which makes it too hard for some people to start. If one can have coffee with milk and diet zero calorie drinks etc. Then they can keep going through the fast. Makes it so much easier to succeed. ❤
True. I thought I couldn’t have a tiny bit of skimmed milk in my tea.
Erik and Mindy both are chiropractors, I won't compare them to Dr . Jason Fung.
@@omarjaber7745 I didn’t know that. Thanks.
@@frenzyviz6296Dr. Berg is a certified chiropractor but I don’t think he’s ever practiced.
Dr. Berg is more strict but also better example of health looking person than Dr. Jason of course if you have an eye to see. They are both great! But some people like doctors offer exactly what the listeners like to hear. Dr. Jason has an amazing knowledge and wisdom but I believe Dr. Berg is an example and evidence that intermittent fast works!
In 14 months of Fasting I was able to go from Level-2 Obese to Normal Weight (BMI < 25). The last few pounds were the hardest, because they didn't want to go away. I was on a 18 hour fast followed by 6 hour window for 2 meals. I switched to OMAD (One meal a day) to lose the final few pounds. That worked very well. I still want to lose 1 more pound and then I'll switch back to a 18/6 ---> 20/4 pattern to maintain the weight. A year and a half ago I wouldn't have believed this was possible.
Hi Bob, was it hard to transition to the OMAD? I have been doing 16:8 since November and seeing good results but coming towards my goal and I'm slowing down.
Danielle I suggest you come at it through a series of steps. Go a week or two with 18/6., then go another week or two at 20/4. I find 20/4 challenging, so it's a mind game to bring yourself to follow through. After that pick a day and try OMAD. I find that from 11AM to 2PM it the toughest time, so this is when I exercise. In my case go for a multi-mile walk. That seems to take my mind off the hunger and during the walk, I don't feel hungry. I first tried OMAD as only two days of the week. It was about two months later that I decided to switch to OMAD every day. I'm now about one pound away from my target, so it's only one more week. It is a challenge, but you have to really set your mind to just push hard to do it. I hope this helps.
@@BobDiaz123 Thank you so much. Great suggestions, I'll get started! 👌
Take a bow Bob..... well none!
☺️
I strongly recommend that anyone with a weight problem follow Dr. Fung
I use the tape measure and the scale . Frustratingly , at those times when the scale just won’t budge and I was doing great on my eating , fasting and exercise, I would see the inches go down. I was building muscle and burning fat.
I always say, “Jeans don’t lie!”
So, if you get caught in a “gravity storm “ with the scale don’t worry, success is only time away. Best of health to you!
Thank you Dr. Funk for confirming, what I suspected for years that, a number of physicians would never reveal and explain that we can reverse diabetes, and how we can help ourselves, and not become dependent on pills to lower our cholesterol; and can live free longer lives in health and happiness. You are God sent, God bless and keep you.
Thanks Dr fasting corrected my sleep cycle and helped me loose 22kgs
i’ve been doing 16/8 and OMAD or 20/4 fasting for almost 4 years now. greatest lifestyle change i ever made. :)
THANK YOU, DR. FUNG. VIEWING YOUR VIDEOS HAS BEEN A LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE FOR ME. A STARTED FASTING LAST MONTH, IN JUNE OF 21, AND AS OF JULY 12, I LOST AT LEAST 20 POUNDS. SLEEPING A LITTLE BIT MORE, ABOUT 2 TO 3 HOURS A NIGHT. I AM A DIETETIC, AND OTHER MEDICAL ISSUES. AGE 70, AND I FEEL THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS THAT I HAVE DONE FOR MY HEALTH SO FAR. ONCE AGAIN THANKS. GOD BLESS US ALL.
Thank you doc! This is gold.
What a sweet, kind tone of voice. Thanks, Doc.
Genuine doctor who cares about people's health.you are a legend Doc!!
The only (true) doctor I will trust on the internet regarding weight loss and fasting! Thanks Dr Fung!!! You are amazing!!!
This guy should go on “The Doctors” and teach them a thing or two…
He’s way too genuine to be on there.
I agree he has answered everything question I’ve had in this one Video . Now I don’t have to keep on searching. Thanks doc.
His videos are the best way to reach the public. Hopefully you will go back to your dr and suggest they watch his videos and learn!
They would probably make fun of him, keep interrupting him and brush him off like they did with Cole Robinson (of the Snake Diet) when he talked about the benefits of fasting. "The Doctors" are nothing but arrogant clowns.
Facts
I would hit a love button if there is one. Thank you doctor for sharing these tips. Always makes my fasting journey easier. Best of the best Doctor

I just did a 7-day fast and lost 17 lbs. A couple of years ago I did another fast, it lasted only 3 days though, because the headaches and dizziness were too much to continue. I did not have that issue this time and I know it was because I took vitamins and minerals. I had biotin, cod liver oil, salt, and added fresh lemon juice to my water, that was all. I am going to do Keto OMAD for today and tomorrow then start another fast, I think I will do only 5 days this time. I have a Hydrogen Water Generator Bottle coming on Monday, I think that will help me out a lot on my upcoming fast.
Thanks for everything, doc! With 14 months of OMAD I dropped 150lb. I still do OMAD every day since I just feel so much better.
When you eat your one meal what do you have to keep you full? Sometimes I get mad cravings
@@tracinichols9794 add good fats to keep you satiated longer.
On the first day of a 3 day fast, I did find I was very hungry & a bit dizzy. I found it very helpful to take a few grains of pink sea salt crystals. It was surprising how quickly it got rid of the hunger! And drinking a bit more water got rid of the dizziness. Thanks, Dr. Fung!
Thank you, Dr. Fung, for educating us so we can lead healthier lives. I started fasting 16/8, and in 2 days, my morning BS readings have dropped from the 160s to 114. I'm determined to get healthy, and you are a tremendous help in reaching that goal. We appreciate all you do!
I love everything your talking about. Straight to the point.
He is 100% right about the diet coke. I'm currently ADF and had diet coke yesterday, I was so close to breaking my fast because I was super hungry! I'll just stick to water, tea and ☕
@@talon310calif Not at all, I was just very very hungry.
Does sweeteners like Stevia in your coffee affect the effectiveness of the fast or insulin levels? or it just affects you in terms of feeling hungry? I'm more concerned about the former..
@@xxxrazorsharpxxx It didn't affect my fasting except for the hunger pangs and I was less active also whenever I use artificial sweetners, I tend to struggle with my fast. I guess it's different for some people because my sister also ADF and she uses artificial sweetners all the time and also drinks diet coke and it doesn't seem to affect her 🤷🏿♀️
@@xxxrazorsharpxxx stevia is awful. Try monkfruit sweetener instead. O.4kj per spoonful and it doesn’t have that metallic aftertaste kick like stevia.
@@xxxrazorsharpxxx
Stevia doesn’t have sugar, so, just knowing that, means Stevia cannot break a fast. I use about 5 tablespoons of Stevia in coffee without any issues
Thank you I been doing the 16/8 already lost 14lbs my energy levels have spiked and I no longer need coffee or energy drinks
Your videos are absolutely to the point, helpful and friendly!! 🙏
love all your work Dr. Fung!
Fasting has changed my life thanks to Jason Fung 🥰. I feel better @38 than I did at 25, and I look 25😍.
Are you just internittent fasting or are you doing full days of not eating anything?
@@gabrielort3531 I tried all day without eating but the one meal a day is easier for me right now. I cut out most carbs except beans and I feel great👍.
@@limewoman1 ..Thank you for replying. Glad is working for you 🎉!
I find that if I am feeling a bit of hunger while fasting, taking a little lick of Himalayan pink salt makes the hunger go away almost instantly.
Thank you. I needed to hear that.

I just drink a lot of water
Nice Tip!
Jason Fung tip courtesy of Dr. Boz aka Dr. Bosworth also here on UA-cam. She keeps a little salt rock and licks it when needed.
Thank you for all of your fasting education! Absolutely amazing!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS JASON!!! THIS REALLY MAKES ME NOT WANT TO QUIT!
I’m having good results with coffee with a bit of milk. Afternoon and evening pure tea. Thank you so much Dr. Fung!
I'm guessing the short answer is that it depends on your goals? Fasting for weight loss and fasting for autophagy require different adherences. What I find myself rapidly losing patience for is seeing questions like, "Does sugar in my coffee break my fast if I only use 3 tablespoons?" when it can be easily looked up... But I guess we all have to start somewhere. Dr. Fung has the patience of a saint to address the same questions over and over to help all of us.
Goodness 3 Tbsp sugar in coffee is a meal. Just Kidding!
Leche noir I believe is because people don’t really want to do it. With fasting I’m also doing keto and when I went to research receipts to make sure I was doing right all I found was recipes that I don’t really eat on a daily basis like pizza, cakes, cookies, energy bars. So if u look for Facebook groups they’ll say that u won’t break fast if is less than 30 calories when is pretty clear if u ingest any calories we break fast. Unfortunately when it turns to fad a lot of miss information to sell more stuff.
Does toothpaste breaks a fast ?
@@tdverse9482 Be aware that many brands of toothpaste have sugar added to them, just simply buy one that doesn't.
@@sissyturner633 I was like yuck ....that would be so sweet. A little coffee with some sugar.
So much good information- thank you for sharing this!
Thank you once again Jason. Particularly useful (5:30) to realise that a small break doesn’t mean you’ve completely ruined it.
Never stop making these videos Dr. Fung! ☺️

As always, thank you for your wisdom and willingness to share!! Love you, Dr. Fung!!!
So true about feeling the weight loss without results on scale!
Thank you for this valuable information! Looking forward to starting my fasting lifestyle!
What a delightful man, great advice I’m onboard 👍
Thanks, Dr Fung.
Thank you for all the knowledge :) I just started fasting a few weeks ago and am already noticing many benefits. Awesome video!
What many people don't realize is that fasting was a normal occurance of life when there was not enough food and then the body xould clean itself.
Thanks for including people's stories. Very inspiring.
Just getting started. Thanks for the great tips.
Have a great day Dr. Fung.
you are so humble and wise, thank you so much
This video answered all my fasting questions without asking!!! Thank You!
such a sweetheart Dr Fung
Thank you so much Dr. Fung . You have been such a help and I appreciate you and all your help for us all .
Thanks so much for the time you take to make these videos Dr. Fung!!!
I find that planning a fast is the most successful way. I keep myself distracted and always keep sipping from the water bottle. Early nights are vital to avoid that wanting a snack late in the day. My record so far is 68 hours and I hope that at some point this year I'll do that one week fast - it'll be a life time achievement in my eyes. I've also influenced two other people to try fasting, both love it and feel better for doing it. PS Loved your Guide to Fasting especially the bit about big food companies using formula of sugar and fat to keep us hooked.
I needed to hear this tip today from you Mitch. My scale will not decide my motivation or mood. Im hanging in there.
Thank you Dr Fung for your videos.
I find I understand you more than anyone else.❤
Thank you so much! This has been so helpful!
Nephrology nurse form Indiana. Fasting has changed my life but I find it difficult to share and encourage this for my patients although I feel it could benefit them.
I wish we had a place to send them in my area for this type of coaching.
@ keith Ogden
Try suggesting Dr Jason Fung on You Tube to them, after breaking the ice by telling them how helpful you found his videos.
@@onyenmehieihenagarankeoma2070 I think any diet advise for folks with complicated health conditions such as renal failure should be tracked a followed by a qualified professional. Taking advise from a UA-cam video about fasting might be actually dangerous for some without proper supervision.
@@keithogden3727 you are absolutely right Keith ! I,m also a nurse Such valuable health saving information from Dr, Fung !
Be the local coach yourself 😊Maybe just refer them to your favourite youtube channel and share your positieve experiences. That will make them curious, hopefully.
Pain Clinic nurse from N. Dakota here. My doc talks to our patients about the anti-inflammatory diet, he also allows me to share my IF, Keto/Carnivore story with them. I turn them on to Dr. Fung & Dr. Ken Berry
This is so good. Intelligent- knowledgeable- kind- generous - inspirational - I just wish the UK National Health Service would take all this on board.
Uk NHS is a total joke. Useless incompetent, liars, Rarely do they provide a good service..rarely
@@DG-EditsMediaEtc Government services suck. Servants get lazy like the politicians, all the good ones get overloaded by the lazy assholes. Now we are all injecting poisons and wearing masks ? For health? In the summertime ? Retardocalypse.
Yes me too, they still adhere to that stupid eating pyramid, that needs up ending!!
I'm in the UK too. Guys, we have to take our health into our own hands to an extent because we can't fully rely on the docs. This is why I watch vids like this.
What a down to earth man!!
You are so honest and selfless. You’re helping so many ppl.
You are the best, Dr. Fung! I've had a lot of success with fasting after watching your videos. I appreciate the information, and the care you show!
Can never thank you enough 🙏😊
Thank you Jason, I enjoy learning from your content.
The moment I drink coffee,the worst hunger hits me! Why do we need coffee,aș long as you said that fasting is giving us a huge energy? I see this contradiction at every podcast about fasting.I do support the benefits of fasting,to be clear! I see all the time,our orthodox monks fasting.I know a person who made prostata cancer dissapear,after one month of fasting.It happened three month ago.He lives in Germany! Good luck,all of you! I 🙏
Thank you, Dr. Fung, for your efforts to deliver this life saving/changing information!
Glad you Enjoyed it

His have type 2 diabetes have acute kidney failure and have liver disease.
I hope you will response on my comment. Please Doctor help us how to do.
Dr.Fung you are my best teacher, you really are one of my favorite people in the world.Thanks so much.
@@bblovesmangyantv0808 How is he??
@Jason Fung would salt and or lemon juice in water break a fast for atophogy?
I did a 5 day fast last week with nothing but water and green tea. The amount of inches I lost is amazing. I normally do 22 hour OMAD. I find less is more for me. Once I start eating I don’t want to stop so OMAD works best for me. My wife finds eating twice a day easier. I don’t use a scale. I can tell by how my clothes and ratchet belt fit. 110lbs and counting! Thanks Dr! I read that brushing your teeth and even smelling food increases your insulin. I still brush my teeth! 😂
Wow that's great, so what d u eat at yr one meal a day🤔
That's great
You’re both brilliant and quirky - thank you for making such a life saving difference to so many lives
I am Dr. But my knowledge was limited regarding diabetes. Now i can guide my patients in a much better way.
Great tip from your client! The scale only shows us a part of the journey.
Love this guy! He's educational and sensible.
Thank you Dr Fung for all your teaching and gentleness. You are a blessing and so is your knowledge.
Just trying fasting but need my coffee! I was diagnosed with pre diabetes. I’m into it!
