Thank you for bringing Dr. Fung! Since I had a hysterectomy four years ago I know my hormones have affected my weight gain. I would have liked to more about that
@@neelachase6909 check out Dr Mindy Pelz. She discusses hormones and fasting.
Done, Thanks! 😁
Thank you for your show! I love all your videos

My two brothers have Type 2 diabetes and my grandma died of Type 2 diabetes. 3 & 1/2 years ago, my A1C # was 6.1, prediabetic and my doctor asked me to take a medication. I found Dr. Fung's seminar video and started 16-hour intermittent diet. My A1C # went down to 5.8 in a year and now is 5.6, completely normal. My doctor was so surprised and asked me how I did it. Now I am not hungry at all from 7PM to 12:30PM next day and eat a brunch. My brain is sharper than ever during the time and I have more energy than ever. I'm the ONLY one in my family not diabetic and not on a medication. I cannot thank Dr. Fung enough by any words.
Well done, stay healthy! 💪
Super inspiring! Ty for this comment!
I think you meant 12PM...
@@northernstar6837 right. I'll fix it. Thank you!
That is wonderful. Maybe the fasting saying should be ‘we are what we don’t eat.’
This guy gets it. I only eat between the hours of 5-8pm everyday and it's a game changer. My stomach has become so flat and my energy has increased. For anyone who thinks they can't do it. The body will adjust. At first you experience hunger pains but keep going. Now I rarely ever think of food. Its so nice to not be controlled by food
Thank you for this comment 😭 I thought the hunger would never go away! It's good to hear things like this.
@@MorganaHisBeloved No problem! The body is great at adapting so I promise it will get easier. I honestly can't think of the last time I just felt hungry. I eat every evening but never feel hungry
Talk of "thinking of food". We don't speak enough about it.
Lol this inspires me ...
@@Jeffrhodes-pl7rc Like what do I eat? A lot of meat and vegetables. A little bread. Sweets on the weekend to treat myself. All within that time window every day
I just completed a 72 hour water fast and I’m so excited. The results from the three days is amazing and intermittent fasting will be a part of my lifestyle from here on out.
thats fantastic. just be aware that the body takes 2 days to fully switch to fat burning. So its day 3 and onward where your not loosing any muscle. but congratulations.
So you just drink water? Can i drink coffee?
@@marianaavilatemu253 When fasting I just drink water and also sprinkle some salt on my hand and eat the salt. To make up for salt lost thru sweat.. when fasting you need more water because its used in moving the fat. Coffee is a diuretic , meaning it makes you wee out water. ..if you normally have one or two coffees a day then have at least one a day while fasting.. you dont want to go thru coffee withdrawal, this takes up to 3 days to kick in. IF its going to happen. God bless.
Juliette, it's more important how you END any fast. Also strength training long term is a requirement.
Majority of meals should have mostly protein & fresh whole food veggies/dark greens/beans/seeds, some fruit in season. Minimal processed machine-made carbs& sweeteners etc.
You can try fasting like Muslims, not eating and drinking water from dawn until sunset. It really helped me lose weight quickly, and makes your body full faster when meal time arrives. You can only eat food at night, when it's dark. The result is that you won't eat too many snacks, and make your stomach full with your meal. Don't forget to eat a balanced diet, which contains carbohydrates, protein, vegetables and fruit .If you eat watermelon and drink enough water it will help you not feel thirsty during fasting .
Weight loss is found in the kitchen, fitness is found in the gym.
wow great quote! i will remember this :) xx
❤
Love this.
Yes. So true
abs are made in the kitchen :)
A plastic surgeon I spoke with in 2018, who refused to do liposuction on me, said search for Dr. Jason Fung. Read his book. Here in Manila, I just couldn’t find his book in 2018. Then I started seeing him on my feed during the pandemic, and he saved me from rolling over to diabetes. I found his speaches to universities and medical audiences, and interviews with his fellow doctors. He is a gift to the world. ❤
How exactly did his talk help you prevent getting diabetes?
@@bioetlThe same way someone might point out that you’re being an asshole and, if you’re willing to hear it, that simple prod in behavior could set you on a better path.

This man saved my life. I was obese class III, suffering from insulin resistance/pre-diabetic I’m about 20 pounds from my goal weight. Used fasting and strength training eating all food groups, whole carbs rather than refined. In the best shape of my life! Thank you Dr. F’ing!
How you dealt with the hunger first time?
@@findingtifa drink water, often times we mistaken being thirsty with being hungry. Hunger eventually goes away.
@@TotallyJoel Thanks will do !
@@findingtifa just drinking water is the best way to fast but you can drink teas and some other stuff and still lose weight. I recommend watching Dr Fungs youtube videos. Has all the info you need.
Sometimes I drink water with chai seeds and a bit of honey.
I did a 10 day fast (240 hours) and holy moly it changed my life forever...
My suicidal thoughts and sweet tooth are gone...
I'm 25 and I feel like a 5 year old again... I enjoy life again...
Wow, that's is amazing!! How was your energy and hunger? Well done x
Today is Day 1 of my extended fast as well wish me good luck
This makes me so hopeful I might try it myself... Thank you for your inspiration and glad that you're feeling better
Hold up.... wait a minutes... from suicidal jump to sweet tooth 🫠🫠
Anything beyond 72 hours, Fung recommends only with medical supervision.
Dr. Fung's book The Obesity Code transformed my life! I'm 60 and I lost 160 lbs by reading his books and watching his videos and lectures. I'm off all my medications and feel better than when I was in my 30's and 4O's. I've been maintaining now for a year and a half. I'm loving my fasting lifestyle 🥰. Thanks for all you do 🙏☺️
How long do u fast?
@@feefee2 Hi! So now, for maintenance, I eat OMAD ( one meal a day), every other day. On my eating days, I allow a two to three hour eating window because I make everything. Then I'll throw in a longer fast ( three days or five days) at least three times a year. More often if I'm super busy, feeling like I'm getting a cold or flu etc. Thanks for asking 😃👍
That is absolutely brilliant news. You must feel amazing - so well done on your achievement ❤
@@jessicajohnson4087so it’s normal to feel like you’re caught a cold or getting a fever? Today is my 1s forth day long fasting. I woke up and felt dizziness and as if I have a fever. How long does it last?
@@stricama I'm sorry to hear. That never happened to me.
Dr. Fung, you are not arrogant, you are a justified hero!!! You’ve helped so many. I hope the whole world wakes up to your teachings and that your legacy lives on in the form of healthier future generations with low prevalence of PCOS and T2 Diabetes! ❤
A hero? He is selling snake oil to the masses that are assess
. Dangerous unscientific bullshit!
no.. he is both arrogant and incorrect
@@CoreConceptsWellnessVancouver why?
Are you one of those gym diet people?
I done all that and never worked.
Some ppl are disable and sick. I diet until my hair fell off and my skin was loose and hanging down.
I am disabled unable to go to a gym and can’t afford a personal trainer or be a member of a club to loose weight.
Diets never worked
No one can survive permanently on a 600 calories per day or afford unhealthy powdered shakes and supplements.
I think old school diet and gym is an old concept and expensive . Only works temporarily.
The future will come and change the old concept.
Research and science is progress. I Don’t get stuck on things that don’t work.
Fasting is free and eating healthy meals cooked at home are affordable.
Sorry some ppl on your industry are loosing business and money big time. … worst it doesn’t even work.
@@Paloma1977 none of what you said reflects any of my views. Nobody is saying you have to eat 600 calories.. where did you get that? I'm going by evidence and common sense. Diets don't have to be "expensive". Dr fung is making nonsense claims and I'm calling him out on them.
@@CoreConceptsWellnessVancouver With out a rebuttal, you’re not calling anyone out as incorrect. Just being disparaging.
I audibly gasped when I saw Dr. Fung was the guest for this episode. He is absolutely brilliant and I’m so, so happy you brought him on the podcast. Thank you! 🙏🏻
I thought I was the only one!
I saw his face on the thumbnail and gasped :D clicked right away.
Yes!

He is a quack. Zero scientific validation and junk science period.
Good Afternoon Dr. Fung,
I heard your video last November 2022.
I was a diabetic II. I followed your 18 hr fasting. I managed to reverse my diabetes. My A1C was at a 6. I no longer take Insulin. When I started taking insulin, I gained weight like crazy, and couldn't reduce it. All my life I never had a weight issue. Now I'm back down to 165. I was at 204. I made a comment several months ago. I would like to say THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU AGAIN.
I have a question for Dr. Jason,
I'm 5'7", 165, 62 yrs. Since High School I wore a size 11-12. ALL MY BELTS are TOOOOO big.
How do I stop the weight loss? I do exercise a little to retain muscle & movement. I got rid of the turkey neck ( I discontinued Insulin in January 2023. Took 10 months to see the weight loss. It all fell off in September 2023 and still losing.
@@amendoza-pq7ssaccording to his book your body will know when your equilibrium has been reached and hopefully your current lifestyle will maintain that. Also buy a new belt.
he has a youtube channel
In my teenage, early adulthood I read tons of fitness magazines. All that info destroyed in an hour and a half. How did I only discover this channel now? What an amazing guest.
he has a youtube channel
F***ing FINALLY! A professional who has explained weight loss/gain in a real and accessible way. No ‘diet’ seems to explain the (huge) hormonal part in all this. Stephen, you said it right - a light has gone on in my mind too. Thanks for this interview, Stephen, your style allows your guests to speak freely and honestly and eloquently, and it’s brilliant! Jason, you’ve made this over-weight (not obese) 51 year old, perimenopausal woman feel so much better and hopeful today! Thank
You and a Huge *HUG*
Also explains why women in general AFTER a diet will gain more weight- the diet messed up their metabolism but also their hormones.
There is no hormonal part of it. Its calories in vs calories out. Fung is charlatan.

"That body fat isn't there for looks"! 😄 I love this guy and the way he explains things. Great interview.
I was diagnosed DT2 in Aug 2017. Kick off low carb high fats regime in Sept 2020. Got rid of statin, metformin, mecobolamin & insulin in just a few months. Declared diabetic free by 6 different doctors from 2022 till my last appointment in Jan 2024. Thanks to you Dr Fung!
Love from Kelantan, Malaysia🇲🇾
Lost 35 ib so far with varying fasting, no exercise at all (ME Fibro etc), and now classed as overweight opposed to obese. Your video's have certainly helped so thank you.
How quickly?
@@aliciahill7482 9 months. Slow and steady.
Thats amazing❤ so proud of you
Jessica- Gentle strength training is vital for fibro, as is a very nutrient dense meal plan. Weight loss is great and all, but you should aim to be metabolically healthy too.
Fibro is shown by several research papers to have higher average blood glucose & tied to some vitamin/mineral deficiencies. Appropriate exercise does help the pain.
Because of THIS guest... I've subscribed to your channel. Dr Fung is the type of expert who needs to be heard more.

Dr’s opinion on Ozempic?
AI generated stuff.
@@kbaakash yes absolutely but i am helping others. i have zero benefit. Just hoping he notice and hire me for doing this trying to make income
Yes! Bringing the message about T2D is your greatest gift. I am so appreciative, so grateful. For years I've expresses to my various doctors that there's something wrong with my body chemistry, that there's something I HAVE NO CONTROL over.... met with BLANK STARE. I'm 62, and last February I went low carb. I've gone from A1C of 12.8 to 5.6 in 11 months. I've lost 85 pounds. I don't think even as I child I felt so healthy. I love your story, that as a practicing nephrologist, you tired of helping people through their dying of kidney disease. Everything about my labs are now described as optimal.
Thank you! I hope you hear my appreciation and wonder if you can truly comprehend the profound impact you have on people in my situation.
This has definitely convinced me to be serious about intermittent fasting. I have heard guest in the past discuss this but this has been the simplest and most informative one to date.
My ex husband had type 2 diabetes for 10 years. He went on a low carb diet and did a 36 hour fast, 3 times a week. He is no longer a diabetic. His doctor was just amazed and smiling ear to ear when all the blood work came back showing this. My ex can now eat a little less of a strict diet and still fasts...just less of a time period. He totally cured his diabetes 100% through diet and fasting.
He did a 36 hour fast 3 times a week?

@@zebulon303303 it's also called "Alternative Day Fast". Monday fast, starts from Sun after dinner, maybe 6pm. Till Mon 6pm is 24hr, then sleep. Eat at Tue 6am, is 36hr. Therefore, alternate fast on Mon, Wed, Fri, n u will have three 36hr fasts in a week.
Supposedly, u need to vary the fasting, so that u stress n challenge the body a bit. This also avoids nutritional shortfall n plateaus. Some youtubers or studies( I forgot) say that entirely cutting out carbs, may cause body to not know how to process carbs in a stable way.
So for me, cheat days are necessary, so that I don't over-do certain things, n it provides relief for social life n cravings. But remember the calories in n out theory still applies, so don't overeat too much, or too many times during the cheat period.
@@zebulon303303 that would equal one full days fast and eating half way through the next day three times a week - quite achievable
Self proclaimed Fungster. Have been fasting since 2019. The Obesity Code is one of those books that I list as life changing. It is also one of the books that actually made me angry. All of the BS that has been spoon fed to us by big pharma and big food. Keep doing your great work Dr Fung!

THANK YOU Dr Fung!!!! The info you are giving us is amazing! You explain things so clearly and beautifully!... You are just BRILLIANT!
And thank you Stephen for this excellent video!..
I have been doing intermittent fasting (17-18 hrs) everyday for the last 5 years! No weight gain at all.. (I have never been overweight, by the way). I exercise moderately (mostly walking for at least an hour everyday) and eat healthy also...no sugar at all (which I couldn't care less about), no processed food...little carb... lots of raw veggies and some fruits, nuts... I have no health issues at all-- I only use medication for hypothyroid...
I will be doing intermittent-fasting for as long as I live!
As a Muslim, fasting right now in ramadan, lost 5 lbs already in a week
I found Dr. Fung about 2 years ago. Started fasting, cut my carbs/sugers by 80%. I lost 60lbs in about 2 1/2 months and have been there ever since. I struggled with weight for 30 years, I still find it hard to believe. Thank you Dr. Fung!

What if science actually said intermittent fasting and keto had just as little success rate then any other method of dieting?
Thank you Dr Jason, because of you i lost 20 kgs during the pandemic COVID-19. You're my hero. Blessings!

Thank you to your knowledge and channel you changed my life 🙏
Oh my god finally! Fasting has helped me so much with dealing with my food addiction. I grew up obese and ended up around 300 pounds. Delaying gratification with fasting is how I’m now down to 225 and still going. A lot of people bash fasting because they’re misinformed and believe that “starvation mode” while still having fat on the body is real. Fasting is natural and can help us prevent premature death and disease!
My husband passed away July 2021and about 8 months later I ballooned up to almost 300 pounds gaining 10 - 15 pounds a month. I began fasting September 2023 and am down to 260 and still going.
Same! Started fasting 2019, lost 96 in 18 months. For the first time ever I've been able to keep it off. Dr. Fung is saving lives.
So sorry for your loss @barbararuiz2690
How you deal with the hunger I need some help and also which if are you guys doing?
@barbararuiz2690 Sorry to hear of your loss. Good for you for taking care of yourself.
@@findingtifa hunger can be due to several things.
1. sometimes the hunger is really about thirst and needing water.
2. I was hungry all my life. I'd eat to a feeling of fullness, but would still feel hungry. Gurus said, eat more fiber. I did. I'd get a sense of fullness, but I was still hungry. It wasn't until i got more fat in my diet (I tried keto) that I finally got satiation and NO hunger! It was so wierd to not have hunger for the first time in my life. The fat-based hormones were not getting the amount they needed, and once I got enough good fat, things really started to turn around.
As a Doctor myself I can responsibly say that this man speaks hard topics in a concise and knowledgeable manner. The principles Dr. Fung is talking about ( GLPs, hunger , diabetes, insulin and other hormonal responses) are some of the key concepts of medicine and physiology, yet, many so-called specialist tend to forget or act on these information with little common sense ... In here , Dr. Fung has made the literal opposite; talk common sense based in a strong medical foundation. Congrats.
He is sorely misinformed, and his message is categorically false and potentially dangerous.
Please, whenever you can elaborate on your argument and share your references, thanks.@@adamberke1278
The secret is *exercise* and a *balanced* diet. I lost 100 lbs without any low-carb nonsense.
He is correct scientifically, but OMG does he need somebody to word his thoughts for him. He is no advocate for obese people.
Dangerous to whom? The snack food industry? Coca Cola? Humans have been fasting since the dawn of humanity. @@adamberke1278
I love Dr. Fung! Always uses simple words to explain a complex issues. Thank you very much for your continued effort to educate the public.

Nobody is as knowledgeable on this subject as Dr Fung. It is a pleasure to listen to him.
JASON FUNG!!!!!!!
My healthy grandparents were intermittent fasting in the 50s... way before Dr Fung was born. They ate similar to Keto long before it ever became a way to eat. Lots of old timers just naturally practiced what so many preach nowadays. Common sense... says Gramps.
Dr Eric Berg has been talking about intermittent fasting, IF, for a long time.
He was to appeared on Dr. Oz show a decade ago and he was canceled at the very last minute . However, he was first interviewed & all questions asked…& another doctor was brought in to repeat
Dr. Berg’s information. All of it was COPIED!!
Go to YT and watch the thousands of free podcast with his information.
You will learn more about IF than you ever wanted.😉
@@ruthmwagner1729Intermittent fasting has been around a lot longer than that. For some people, the awareness began after Mark Mattson’s research; that led to James Johnson’s book then Krista Varady. However, I can point to a book published in the 1960s that clearly outlines OMAD for the sicker and alternate day fasting as a recommendation for most people. Fung, and the rise of social media, has been much more effective at spreading the message.
@@ruthmwagner1729berg and Fung 🤣 your so deeply manipulated by charlatans your unhelpable
My dad has type 2 diabetes and he won’t listen a word on fasting. I am trying to persuade him as much as I can by educating him and showing him how beneficial fasting is. 💪🏻
I have the same type of dad. I was SHOCKED when he came to this on his own. I think it had to do with his Dr wanting to put him on ozempic before his hip operation. He didn’t want to take the drug so he had to come up with his own plan fast 😅
Loved the edited intro lol. Been following Dr Fung for years. Absolutely love his work, this is a great interview!! Thank you so much!

So excited. Just about to listen 🎉 start the week
It’s been 7 years since I adopted an IF lifestyle, and I’ll never look back. 🙌
You don’t have hormone issues ect ?
Hello
Love love love when Dr Jason Fung makes an appearance on any program. I purchased that book “The Diabetic Code” and it has given me a wealth of information that I find valuable!
Sadly I see many in my circle who consistently eat between main meals and slowly packing on the weight. I’ve made suggestions based on what I’ve read but I find unless you’re willing to do it or want to, most will never listen to learn to later try.
I've been fasting since 2018. He changed my life!
Trimmed my weight down from 94Kg to 69kg because of him.
Been fasting for 3 years now and I'm not going back
Lies world record is about 2 months 😂
Is your approach essentially skipping breakfast? Do you have an exercise routine added in?
This is my goal. I started fasting 2 weeks ago when i had 93kg and i want to go to 69kg. Currently i have 88 kg.
Dr. Fung is amazing - I listened to hours of him talking before IF and have successfully lost over 40 lbs doing IF and walking everyday. Age 56
Amazing 🎉
Congratulations. I did the same thing!
That's awesome! 😊
You are old forget about it
Enjoy life ….
😂kidding good for you I’m 57 😮
Wow that's great
Perhaps the best episode I've listened to, he is so knowledgeable but also no BS. Love him!
Really like the hosting style and let Dr. Feng fully explain this topic.
I probably owe my life to Dr Fung,, I came across his videos 6 or7 years ago. I was 63 118 kg, pre diabetic and unable to walk much more than half a mile without rest, mainly because of knee pain. Now I'm steady at 72-74 kg, I can easily manage a 5 mile walk without knee pain and my glucose levels are normal. In addition, I sleep better and my attention/concentration levels are much improved too. I honestly think if I had not followed his advice they would have buried me at least 3 years ago.
Glad you're still here❗️Thank you for your testimonial. 👍
So happy for you
👍🫶🏾
Wow, that's amazing! 😮
It really blew my mind how easy it is to eat 1 meal a day. Did it for 3 days drank plenty of water. First day is awful, lots of hunger pangs around the time I’d eat and snack. The next day, no hunger throughout the day, but my head would turn to food at certain “feeding” times or when I was bored or stressed. Next day, nada, wasn’t even thinking about dinner. Was down 4 pounds, not dehydrated. If anything I drank more water.
Man, this guy just made something click for me. I'm on a weightloss journey and I weigh myself almost daily, my weight loss is pretty slow, but steady, and every now and then I'll have a "cheat meal" within the confines of my calories. The day after my weight drops. I joked about how eating fast food makes me lose weight, but really what I was doing was not eating all day so I could have my calorie surplus later... essentially intermittent fasting.
I'm going through the exact same thing at the moment. Slow and steady weight loss, but the day after a cheat meal I tend to see a bigger weight loss. I still think calories in and calories out is a very good guideline for most of the population.
@@abujunayed That approach only works for the healthy population (like athletes) who are metabolically flexible and whose bodies are efficient an at burning energy in whatever form (fat or glucose) and switching from one form to another. However, it seldom works for the metabolically maladjusted (overweight) who now comprise a majority of the population.
@@RenaissanceBoss 🤡
@@RenaissanceBossexcept that he works with the sick and obese and helps them with intermittent fasting, it’s exactly how he helps them.
He’s a Dr…. He doesn’t work with athletes but the sick, that’s his specialty.
Interesting! I started to "restrict" myself and fast, lasted years without even me knowing it was a thing (10 years)... Then I started to gain weight if I ever ate a bit more than the routine I had. Turns out I didn't eat enough density . It's not about calories but hunger, so really the feeling of satiety. I've started to lose those 3-4kg by eating MORE of unprocessed food and was feeling NO HUNGER. Beware of the body adapting overtime. Obesity is hormonal, not about calories. You often see obese people going through cycles of eating nothing (shame, fear of food, of fat...) then eating A LOT (can no longer sustain this madness). This disrupt the whole hormonal system. They are hungry because they eat empty calories! You will lose weight by eating things that take up space in the stomach (this triggers satiety hormones which is exactly what ozempic does) and nutritive dense food (so avoid over-processed) each category of food protein/fiber/carbs/dairy...triggers different hormones.
You did and you doing a good job Dr Fung. Count me as 1 that you educated and I shared my knowledge in my circle, this will multiple one life at a time. Don't lose heart! it is the age of knowledge so be encouraged.
You have really upped your content! and guest! thank you for Dr Jason Fung!
Great preparation and questions asked…
FINALLY! Dr Jason Fung on a mainstream podcast!
He has been on many mainstream podcasts
I’m a medical Dr. I have intermittent fasted most of my life. The only time I was overweight was after a 4 week visit to family overseas - where I was fed 4 times a day. Other than that, I have never had a weight problem. If you truly listen your body, you will discover that you do not need a lot of food.
A 4 week visit to family overseas where you were probably eating out all the time. Eating 4 meals a day is not inherently fattening.
@@MulletMan3108could also depend on the portion sizing. Cause 4 really big and fullness meals could actually be way too much food for someone especially in a 24hr day cycle.
i usually watch on my smart tv but i came on to my phone to subscribe! 👍 Great channel appreciate all the hard work and info that goes into it. God bless ❤
My first ever 72 hour fast starting in the morning...any tips welcome and prayers greatly received x
🫵💪🎉
For the first time in my life I actually understood why I eat really less than my mother or husband but I am way overweight than them. I even weigh more than my husband. Thanks Dr. Fung. Now I know what to do.
exactly..i m having same issue..i eat very less still weighing more than 93kg...
can you explain why?
I don't get that from this video.
Do you actually track your food@@sadeeshck ? Lots of studies show that people eat more than they think they do.
@@oolala53 yes..I do..I eat less but less qty contains more of carbs..
The MAN OF THE HOUR.......thank you for bringing this incredible man on!
An incredible podcast. There is life changing information in here, thank you for your service Dr Fung, and to you Steven for bringing in such incredible guests.
❤❤❤Dr Fung thank you very much for your work and advocacy...😊
Years gone by, you'd have to pay thousands of dollars to get this expert advice. I am currently doing intermittent fasting and it's the silver bullet. Thanks Steven for this!
This is like a dream!!! Dr Fung is in the house!!!!!
PS: It’s been 1yr plus following Dr Fungs recommendations on IF/water fasting and regular exercise, and I’ve gone from 83 to 58-62kg depending on where I am in my menstrual cycle. I feel so much healthier and stronger.
this gives me hope, I was at 86kg, down to 75kg, targetting 65kg next. thanks
amazing 🤩
Great video! ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE WAY HE ANSWERED THE QUESTION. I’m currently changing my own life implementing intermittent fasting into my daily life system. Enjoyed this teaching very much! Thank you!
I started fasting after watching your interview with Dr. Mindy Pelz last year and I lost 27 pounds in my weight loss Journey. I actually stumbled on your youtube channel by accident, and till now I remember how great I felt. Fast forward I have been following since, and there was a point where I gained the weight back. I had a crazy schedule and was a caretaker for my Father... so I didn't sleep well, a lot of late night snacks. I had other weight loss offers and for some reason couldn't get myself to fast like I used to. I'm on the youtube looking for ways to loose weight again, and stumbled upon Doctor jason Fungs video... on the side I couldn't believe that he was interviewed by you, so you know I had to click it. I have confirmed again, that this is the best thing for me to get on right now. It makes total sense. Yes, I will be forever grateful for these individuals and also to you for bringing these subjects to light. Wish me luck on my weight loss journey continued... Fasting Day 1. today and starting fresh again. Thank you!!!
I love Dr Fung - he has literally saved my life. I found him in October 2023 and started intermittent fasting - I eat in a 5 hour window- sometimes I fast for 23 hours out of 24 because I'm just not hungry. December 2022 my health was so bad that the Emergency Dept decided that I was not for resuscitation. January 2024 I was admitted to hospital again for a non obesity reason and my blood pressure is down (meds halved), off of insulin (still on meds), my fast heartbeat is much better (meds halved) and down by 10kg. My joints are much better, my body is generally less inflamed and I am gaining my health back. I also found Dr Ken Berry in November 2023 I mainly do carnivore or ketovore as my body and brain likes it. This year hopefully I will loose more weight but more importantly I will be gaining my life back.
Amazing dr Fung also had saved my life.
He is brilliant
Keep going 💪🏻
Thank you@@megaskyburst
As a Muslim I have always fasted during Ramadan but have had to face a lot of criticism especially early 2000’s because everyone was told to eat regularly. However my annual medical just after fasting ended had the best results. Proof that fasting is good for overall health.
Salaam alaykoum sis
Fasting helped me get rid of my medicine and insulin. As a muslm i should have done it way before but Dr fung showed me the right way. ❤❤❤
I imagine that you think because of this that somehow it proves Islam is true. I am sure that Judaism also has a lot of great life advice but that doesn't mean the whole thing is legit.
@@ImJiom You cant deny that most people hearing the first time about fasting is Ramadan. A month of fasting by muslims.
@@ImJiomYes, it is actually true
Dr. Fung, thank you for standing strong against the storm of ignorance.
I am one of those millions that Dr Fung has changed their lives. When ever I fall off wagon I just go back and listen to your lectures and you put me back on track. I am a Dr that just orders me lab test and you as my real doctor. Thanks
I am 61 and have been fasting 16/8 and down from an XL to L. Thank you Dr. Fung.
Same at 57
Same at 43.
Dr Jason Fung your research has changed my life. I met your assistant Megan Ramos at a conference in 2019. I thank you for your hard work.
I am so grateful to Dr Fung. My niece sent me one of his lectures on you tube and he changed my life for the better. I lost 45lbs over a 6 month period and I have kept it off for over one year. I feel healthy, full of energy and just simply great. This is after trying to lose weight for decades without success. Thank you Dr Fung. I pray I meet you one day face to face to say thank you so very much.
I watched this interview five times already. SO informative and eye opening! Great interview.
I am so grateful to God for putting Dr. Fung in my path. I started my Intermittent Fasting last January of 2023, his teaching had truly changed my life forever. Now I am sharing with my family and friends ❤ God bless you Dr. Fung and yes through me your legacy will live on!!! Peace and blessings to you to have a long life!
Mr Bartlett, you've struck GOLD. I never tire hearing Jason Fung. His knowledge in this matter is pure gold....
he's an absolute charlatan
@@CoreConceptsWellnessVancouverHow? He’s not saying anything new and his methods work for his patients. Explain the charlatanism.
@@lymphomasurvive his assertion of insulin being causal with zero regard for calories (main driver) is disingenuous. And wrong. Wilful fraud.
@@CoreConceptsWellnessVancouver So you think a diet of only alcohol within the calorie limit is good for you?
Best talk I've heard on here so far 👏🏾 thank you so much for the information 🙏🏾
BEST INTERVIEW YET. I can listen to Dr Fung all day
So happy to see Dr Jason Fung on here I have to celebrate this man 🎉 he opened my eyes to fasting in 2020 I was 190lbs back then I'm now 110lbs I'm a healthy weight for my height now as I'm only 5ft 1 and 37 yr old female I was obese with alot of belly fat untill I started applying Jason's principles it took roughly 8 months to lose which some may say that's to fast but no my body knew what to do I didn't feel funny or off at all, no low energy in fact I had more energy and it's so easy to maintain, I follow a ketogenic diet mostly this really helps my brain but now and again I have days I'm low carb from whole foods not processed junk, I don't test ketones but when i have ketones in high amounts i can feel it, I eat when im hungry and dont eat if I'm not sometimes I'll go a whole day with out ingesting food which i haven't planned in but if my body's got all it needs I am able to know, which is madness to me its taken some time to get to this point as when i first started I'd plan all my fasts now im just more in tune with my body's signals, my cycle as a female is now regular which has never been the case, I'm so grateful to you and Thank you doesn't seem enough but that's all I can do as I'm in the UK and won't ever meet you Jason so THANK YOU JASON FUNG ❤ keep spreading your truth as it really does change lives 😁 I owe this amazing health i enjoy today to you and your inquisitive mind as a DOCTOR.
Happy for you💚
Please help me I'm wanting to start today, and I need to know what and when to eat.
@@ramman411970don’t think of it that way, that will be very limiting. First thing to do is look at what your diet looks like now. Carbs and sugar should be minimized if not cut out entirely ideally. Protein will keep you full longer. And I would highly recommend not doing cheat days during your first month or two unless you have very strong will power.
@@ramman411970Maybe you should watch dr. Mindy Pelz. She has books also.
Yaaaaasss Queen!!! Congrats on your achievements! 🎉
I have impaired metabolism that I’ve been trying to fix. When I put the continuous glucose monitor in my arm and do a 3 day fast, it is so cool to see around the 36hr time range, my body runs out of what ever residual sugar I had, and my blood sugar goes to normal…in the 80s. Otherwise, my baseline is always 120 never below. The first time fasting multiple days is hard mentally because you are so used to eating as a ritual, but you feel so good towards the end. After that you’ll want to do it again. Mental clarity, more energy, little or no food cravings. However, I did do a carnivore diet first to get rid of my carb addition and cravings. I think that helped.
Where do you get your CGM? Is it expensive?
I buy the libre2 from a local pharmacy for under $100. Every 3 months I get the libre2 and get blood work done to see any progress.
I am so glad I read Dr. Fung's book - Best Advice ever - a great read for everyone.
I have just discovered your channel and I LOVE your interview style. Your questions are exactly what I would like to ask. Great conversations. Thank you ❤
Fantastic interview, I have been intermittent fasting for about 12 months now, never felt better. Kelloggs invented the whole 'Breakfast is the most important meal of the day' to sell more breakfast.
And to stop boys masterbating - apparently!
That propaganda still works like a charm, unfortunately
I love this guy with my whole heart. He is so knowledgeable and so far ahead of everyone in the field, he is a breath of fresh air.
Great information Dr. Fung, thank you very much! I am sold to subscribe. I hope you continue to have wonderful excellent guests.!
Sir
Excellent advice of fasting for weight loss. Myths of bits of repeated eating is showded by your clear teachings. Thanks a lot
Jason Fung was my very first dive into keto and his work completely changed my life. He's changed the lives of so many diabetic folk. Thank you Dr. Fung.
Thank you. I have lost more than 250 pounds. I eat at 4pm. You know your stuff.
Congratulations!! That's amazing 👏
How long did it take you to lose 250lbs?
@@kevinp8108 hi It took me 1 year 6 months. I retired at 55 changed lifestyle. Now I do triathlones. I limited my carbs to 50 net a day. My doctor monitored me every 3 months. Good Luck
Everyone talks about fixing ammonial fat but no one explained how to fix it. Thanks for the instructions! 🥰💯
I resonate with this episode so much. The medicine/science is never explained to the public to this detail. It’s fascinating to understand why your body does what it does. I firmly believe that if the pubic understands the medicine/science, they will change their lives instantly. Knowledge is power here! Thank you for hosting incredibly knowledgeable guests on your platform. You are making a difference. 💪🏼
‘The obesity code’ & Jason Fung was the game changer for me! So glad you interviewed this ‘pioneer’ in the field of health & weight loss 👏🏻❤️
Dr Fung is a genius! I could listen to Dr. Fung all day long. Thank you for this interview.
This podcast is one of the best things to happen for information and knowledge to the masses for a long time
The best podcast I’ve ever listened to! Without a doubt. Thank you Steve and Dr Fung. Godsent and will make a huge difference to my issues. Merci beaucoup
Dr. Fung is a legend in the fasting community. Literally changed my life.
Hormones are key! I gained 10 lbs out of nowhere. Could not lose it no matter what I did. Started having all these weird reproductive problems and went to ob/gyn. They prescribed progesterone and in three weeks, I had dropped 15 lbs. I had no clue the power of hormone balance until it happened to me. I had fasted for years but it unfortunately did not help once my progesterone plummeted. I had to have hormone supplementation. Really love Diary of CEO and every guest has value. ❤
Read the book 'fast like a girl'. WHEN you fast through your menstrual cycle is critical to avoid stuffing your hormones. Most fasting info comes from men, we can't fast the same way because of our hormones.
I am glad I came across to your channel. I do believe in Dr. Fung's statements about fasting, the food choices etc.... its because me myself do fasting and it keeps me fit with exercise and proper food choices. At first it was really difficult not to eat cake, ice cream and bread and eat a lot but in due time you will find that you are already a picky eater that you are able to do fasting and still have energy with it feels great. So I was really glad I saw this video. Dr. Fungs interview was amazing and helpful. We should not consume so much unhealthy foods. Live happy and healthy!
Thank you, Dr. Fung!
Dr. Fung saved my life. I am glad you got him as a guest for your audience to see.
Makes sense! I was the most active kid and ate pretty healthy but was a chubby kid. My lazy friends who ate chips and soda were thin. Difference is since I was chubby I got put into this dieting system of countless tiny meals and low calories high carb snacks per day. Whereas my thin friends would naturally be fasting without thinking about it even though they were lazy and didn’t eat as healthy. What needed to happen was low carb and especially no snacking! I spend my life dieting and getting bigger! Now I’m low carb and fasting! I lost 60lbs so far. 🙏🏻 my journey is one of trying to be fit and healthy my entire life only to end up obese and hopeless. It made no sense to me for so long! Most thin people even if they eat junk and lazy are living a feast and famine lifestyle. Whereas I was eating “healthy” but too many carbs and too frequently.
Note: and when I did low carb diet on my journey early on I would be criticized and told it was an unhealthy fad diet. Or I’d ruin my metabolism when fasting. So I’d quit🙄 Thank goodness the truth is out!
That's the most eloquent way anyone has ever asked me to subscribe. Bravo!
I love that he calls out diet culture and how it has been a major contributor to eating disorders that lead to obesity. It is not the individual! It is not about being "lazy" or "putting the fork down." This man has blown my mind. I am excited to try this!
