Dr.Berg's Interview with Dr Jason Fung on Intermittent Fasting & Weight Loss

- I interviewed Dr. Jason Fung, a world-renowned expert on intermittent fasting and weight loss.
Timestamps:
0:00 How intermittent fasting can result in significant weight loss, even if you’re obese
2:49 Insulin causes weight gain; take it away, and you lose weight - but hardly anyone focuses on this fact
5:15 Lower insulin by avoiding refined carbohydrates, eating moderate protein and high natural fat, and intermittent fasting
8:35 Both high blood sugar and high insulin are destructive to your body
21:18 Dr. Jason Fung’s clinic helps patients with intermittent fasting, with many free resources available
25:55 Besides weight loss, intermittent fasting helps with type 2 diabetes, mental clarity, and increased energy
32:00 Intermittent fasting may help to treat Alzheimer’s by a process called autophagy
34:40 It may also be beneficial for cancer
37:05 For fasting, find a routine that works as part of your lifestyle
Dr. Fung explains that the cause of obesity is an issue of too much insulin. Intermittent fasting results in a significant drop in insulin levels. Take away insulin, and people lose weight. Conversely, give people insulin or insulin-raising drugs, and they gain weight. To a lesser extent, the same thing happens with cortisol.
However, most people still focus on calories in, calories out as the formula for weight loss. The problem is, this fails most of the time! Common sense also says that not all foods are equally fattening. Eating the same number of calories from kale as from cookies is very different. Every time you eat, insulin goes up. This is natural. But eating many times per day tells your body to store the food energy you’re eating as fat, because of the constantly raised insulin.
If you want to lose weight, do two things: stop eating high-insulin-provoking foods, and fast intermittently to give your body a break from constant insulin. High insulin and high blood sugar are very toxic to the body, so giving someone with type 2 diabetes insulin is counter-productive. You’re simply trading one toxicity for another.
Losing weight can help reverse type 2 diabetes. And type 2 diabetes is really a disease of too much sugar in the body. Taking insulin can lower blood glucose, but it simply forces the sugar out of the blood and into your body, causing your organs to rot away over the span of ten or fifteen years. This is why diabetes is a disease of everything!
Diabetes and obesity are both diseases of too much insulin. The solution is obvious: lower insulin. Type 2 diabetes is a reversible disease. Intermittent fasting also increases your energy, and it may be beneficial for treating Alzheimer’s.

Dr. Jason Fung clearly explains how intermittent fasting brings substantial health benefits, including weight loss and reversal of type 2 diabetes.
Dr. Berg is the first interviewer that’s allowed Dr. Fung to speak uninterrupted. Amazing!
Anna Pujols Dr. Berg is a great listener. I have noticed it too.
BECAUSE DR BERG IS VERY POLITE AND ALWAYS ALWAYS HAPPY TO LEARN. AND LISTENING IS LEARNING. GOOD LUCK TO YOU
Dr Berg is a real gentleman and Dr Fung thanks so informative 👍
I love the way Dr Fung talks, slow and measured, allows the info to sink in.
YES HA HA EXACATLY. THEY ARE JUST PERFECT. DR BERG VERY POLITE AND WE CAN SEE HE TAKES GREAT PLEASURE LISTENING TO DR FUNG. THIS IS ALSO THE FIRST TIME I SEE DR BERG HAVE A GOOD LAUGH WITH IS LOVELY WHITE TEETH . LOSTS OF GOOD HEALTH AND HAPPINESSE TO THEM AND TO YOU ALSO. GOOD LUCK.
Dr. Berg did a great job actually letting Dr. Fung talk. So many of these types of videos have two smart people trying to talk over each other. This is great! Thanks to both of you guys and keep up the good work.
He let him speak, the only thing you heard was the occasional ding
Shawn Norman Dr. Berg is not that way. He is so amazing. I agree.
Indeed! Love them both!
yeah Dr Berg is such a nice person!
So true. Dr Berg is such a decent human
These two doctors are a gift to humanity and have saved many lives...
💯🙏❤️
Before fasting, my BP was 123/83, still acceptable. I tried to lower it by different ways, no luck.
AFTER only TWO DAYS FASTING, MY BP reads: 107/73 , which is almost TOO normal 😂😂😢😅😅🎉🎉
Totally agree🎉.
@@tkrdg7885Me too. Like a teen's BP, it's a surprise me hahaha. God bless Dr Berg & Dr Fung❤
So true💯%
I am a medical doctor and I have had lots of questions on some of our medical practices and teachings. I haven't seen so many Doctors display a keen sense of KNOWLEDGE, CARE, PASSION AND DESIRE TO IMPROVE THEIR PATIENT'S LIFE by questioning the norms and old teachings. You really take the bold steps to change the narratives with knowledge and evidence based practice to save lives. It's wonderful watching and learning from you - Dr Eric and Dr Fung!
Of course you haven’t. Doctors who speak against status quo risk being seen as traitors, and ostracized or accused/blamed in some way (say, accused of endangering patients with wrong advice), and their reputation ruined.
These 2 guys have saved my husbands life! After 20 years
no more insulin and all normal blood sugar levels, down 60lbs
Glad to be of help!
jos lac amazing！best bless to your family and Dr Berg and Dr Fung!
Hi could you please tell me how your husband got off insulin?? Did he gradually reduce the units of insulin or stopped it altogether? PLEASE do reply... Eagerly waiting..
@@amohamedarif2629 I would like to know as well. My mother is on insulin and she has gained so much weight, yet her doctor tells her she must lost. She is on two types of diabetes meds, and she tries to do the fasting, but she says when her insultin goes low, she passes out or get the shakes. She is type 2 diabetic.
jos lac incredible and congtatulations
Thank you Dr Fung and Dr Berg I almost died last year from health problems my liver, lungs and kidneys were shutting down . My doctors didn’t know what to do. I was in the hospital for almost a month. When I left the hospital I was on 19 different medicines including 2 for insulin. The super high dose of Prednisone I was on spiked my blood sugar super high. I was told by everyone that I was too young to be this sick. I cried out to God for help. On one of my hospital visits one of my doctors said the same thing. She said “You are too young to be going through this. These are diseases that old people have. God wants us to have an abundant life.” I was in shock. None of my doctors had ever said something like that to me. I fell asleep that night in the hospital watching a tv show. When I awoke the next morning which was a Sunday morning a preacher was on tv preaching a sermon on “Living life Abundantly” which referenced John 10:10. He said Jesus wanted us to have a life in it’s abounding fullness of joy and strength for mind, body and soul. I knew this was confirmation for my prayers. Randomly Dr Berg and Dr Fung videos started appearing on my UA-cam feed. I followed their advice and now I am off ALL prescription medications. The Keto Diet and IF literally saved my life. Dr Berg and Dr Fung were the answer to my prayers. Thank you for saving my life!
Sir can you tell what's ur diet plan and how long you fasting in detail
Wow! 19 meds? I'm so happy that your life has changed. I wish you a bright future.
Praise God and the Good Doctors! I got Keto and IF through prayer as well!
Maya Nair ...God Bless you Maya ...Amazing story ...! Similar by myself too ...You just keep marching ...
Maya Nair Amazing story
I truly believe that if we did not have the internet media to educate us we would never get access to this valuable information.
Yeah....kind of suspicious. Im old and brain washed by TV but my gut feeling is that I think you're right.
I truly believe that media (other than books) is the root cause of our NEED to KNOW this valuable information. Before commercials and fashion mags and golden arches and packaged meals we were a more physically active, nutritionally complete society who got our most valuable life education from our elders.
So true!
I totally agree
I think if there was no internet there wouldn’t be so much obese people lol
Dear Dr. Berg and Dr. Fung, THIS is about the MOST important talk I have viewed in years!!!
My dad died of D2. I have D2, went on Insulin and got fatter and fatter. THIS truly, truly explains it. I have lost 13Lbs with Keto & IF in less than 2 weeks. I am so happy!!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You guys are Amazing!!!
Keep up the great work!!
That's such a wonderful thing to hear :)
I'm working on month 2 now. How's it going for you?
Good to hear but somehow hard to believe two weeks 13lbs... good for you and hope you cld maintain it after.
That's awesome!
Dr. Berg is an excellent listener, I'm impressed. He has a track record of communicating well: clear, concrete and concise wellness facts. The receptive side of communication is like an entirely different language. He seems fluent in both. Here, he does not interrupt his guest, yet he isn't spacing out; he gives frequent small non-verbal cues that he is paying attention. I love being able to see both sides in a conversation, you have the opportunity to learn about both parties. Kudos to Dr. Berg.
B. Colwell He’s great
Well said!!! What a great observation!!! There is so much to be learned from these wonderful professionals, not just about diet/fasting, but also in the way they communicate.
Dr Berg is a LEARNER!
Dr fung is the one you should be focused on
His teaching can save you or your love one. Dr berg was humbled in a presence of a great educator/healer.
Indeed the hardest part of communication is listening. You said it perfectly, two smart people usually jockey for position, but not Dr Berg. I'm impressed too ✌🏽
I can see Eric Berg just smiling in agreement with every single thing Jason Fung says! They both know their stuff.
lizanne Rawnsley Yep!!
It was an amazing thing to watch!
Dr Berg is a LEARNER. He is learning while we are.
Honestly i felt that too
It was beautiful and easy to watch. I lived it!
OOOH...My two favorite Doctors on one channel...how lucky am I? These are the two Doctors that I listened to when I started my intermittent fasting. I understood them clearly and I lost the 20 pounds I had been holding onto for 10 years. Plain and simple language is all we need to understand weight loss, without hidden agenda's to make money off of pusing Meds like most Doctors do. Thank you Dr. Berg and Dr. Fung!
That's what I was saying I'm so star strucked these gentlemen are a God send!!!
These two doctors are amazing. I wish more doctors would break down this information to us.
Same here! 😘
I was so excited to see them together as well I just started my fasting journey and I'm excited about the changes that I already have experience 😁
What type of IF do you follow?
I'm obsessed with Jason's attitude! He's such a sassy wiseass, I love it!
Dr Berg has a great personality, very disciplined, letting Dr Fung talk
He's dedicated to the truth. ❤️
He’s evolved
Dr Berg is elegance man !
With my ADD I'd be the worst host ever 😑
@@texastea5686 so relate. Not that we're narc's, super excitable.
460 lb. before starting one meal a day. 297 now and still loosing.
Way to go David. Best of luck to you.
Congratulations David!
David Queen -OMG! Great job!
C M : thanks! Down another 13 since that post
Great job David!
I saw my brother, he started out as a type two diabetic then went to type one and died from multiple organ failure, and now my older sister is going down the same path. I have had my A1C and have type two so I am changing everything to make sure my path is different.
Hi Darla I am sorry for your lost. It has been 9 months since you write this comment. I hope you're healthier now. Sending love and hugs ❤️
Hello Darla. I'm really sorry for what happened. How are you doing nowadays?
hope it has worked for you
Hello Darla How are you doing
I miss my family too
I wish you great success on your healthy journey
Hi Darla,
I'm sorry for your loss
How are you doing now?
I know how it feels I lost my younger brother 6 years ago ()Diabetes ) after a very long battle .
My older brother is Type 2 and having his under control.
I'm borderline with Diabetes for ver 6 years...I'm trying my best to reverse it now with intermittent fasting.
I hope all is going good for you.
Selly
Dr berg sitting there shaking his head listening to dr fung like “ yep. I’ve told these people the same thing like a million times but today I’m going to let you take the credit and maybe they’ll listen”
💯
That's because Dr. Berg probably got the bulk of his knowledge about this from Dr. Fung initially. Dr. Fung specializes in this.
😂
@@RachelScottDance I don’t know because there are so many doctors who have discovered these facts and been teaching this for years. Dr. Fung and Berg both are young.
@@tiadavis5120 I love both of these doctors, however this is Dr. Fung's main focus in his nephrology practice; he has books and lectures on this subject ONLY. Stands to reason he knows more about it.
Dr Berg you are a Rockstar for letting Dr. Fung talk without interruption. Great interview!!!
What I loved the most about this video was that Dr Berg let Dr Fung talk. Normally the host talks more than the guest.
We are fortunate to have these two Doctors who guide us to better health and longevity. Loved the interview. So much respect between the two men.
Glad you like the video. Thanks for watching!
I love how Dr. Fung often speaks in metaphors and analogies. It’s such a great tool to explain complex concepts.
Dr. Fung should be the medical director for Canada or in the U.S. head of FDA. Oh that would make too much sense.
jay mumford Yeah, we can’t have THAT! Gotta keep that meat line moving...
That will bring profit down by trillions of dollars. Bad idea.
Yes! Agree but pharmaceutical industry will not allowed it! We can not imagine how well they are doing keeping us ill and buying medications😤
The pharmaceutical company would no be happy😂
Dr Fung for Canada, Dr Berg for US.
"Any idiot would know that you won't be fine if you eat cookies for dinner." Love Dr. Fung.
But I've done this b4. Not every day tho
So good to hear everytime he talk like that. Hahaha. Love the guy. He’s very passionate and knows well what he’s talking about. Love both of them and Dr. Eckbert.
Actually...like Millions of people...I thought It was all about the calories...
I've been keto for 2 years now. Been following you, Dr. Fung and Dr. Berry. I weaned myself off of 4 insulin shots per day, 4 heart/blood pressure meds and lost at least 50 pounds and kept it off. I'll never go back to a "regular diet". Thanks guys!
Well done sir, good to hear your story....I'm a relatively new convert, have been on Keto for 8 months and it's changed my life!
@@jamesnewing886 stick with it! It will change your life for the better. I've now lost a total of 75 pounds. I'm hovering around 160, down from 235. I'm loving life! I wish the best for you!
Perhaps we need to think of this healthy diet as the regular diet and not the other way around!
I love hearing this type of goodnews....
My three faves too! Congratulations and good health to you!
Dr Berg and Dr Fung are the ABSOLUTE BEST!!! Thank you for posting on Intermittent Fasting. I have gone from 470lbs in early 2021 to 319lbs today!! Approaching 299lbs fast. Thanks again and keep spreading the word!!!
That’s amazing. Congrats to you! 🎉🎉
Any issue with loose skin?
@@waleedarshad4342 belly area. But ill wait till i hit ideal weight
Hey Hammering Hank’s adventure - how is your journey going? Congrats to you so far 🎉
What a combo like batman and superman.
batman and superman < literally any other dc duo
Which is Batman? :-)
Previn Ind I agree.
Yes, only better with a real chance to save millions of lives
Yes! My heros🌹
Both of you should be celebrated! We bought a copy of Diabetic Code & sent it to our doctor. Our Dr was amazed at the results of my husband who’s followed both of you since August 5, 2018 when he was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. He started intermittent fasting with Ketogenic diet. He’s lost 20 pounds & his blood glucose is at a normal, bp is normal and as of yesterday, fasting glucose was 81. Our dr told my husband he’s never seen such a turnaround! Our dr has been practicing for 30 years! Thank you both for giving us this information! No meds & my hubby is recovering!
You may have given that doctor the most important gift he's ever received! I hope he changes his way of treating patients. 😊
CJ cj as of today, husband has lost over 50 pounds, all numbers are normal. He reversed his Type 2 diabetes. This is amazing and it’s shameful this protocol is not used by Drs who treat diabetics. They want to give people meds instead of lifestyle changes that may help them. It’s very sad.
@@sjonesteambrandi what an amazing testimony!👍
i read Dr Fung'a books too
I bought a copy of the Diabetic Code for my doctor as well since he was amazed at me getting off my insulin and now have an A1c of 5.2. Sadly, he still says he hasn't had time to read it. Sure...
I reversed my type 2 diabetes. Listening to both of you. Thank you so much.
What you eat in a day? Just share it bro...
Hi,
Yes please share how did you do it?
Many thanks
Miss 2 meals aday,and stop grazing ,in that one meal pack it with veg fat and 20g protein
My two doctor heroes..if everyone followed these two legends, the world would be such a healthy, happy place🙏
You two are saving very many lives and killing pharma😆.. keep up the good work!!
Once you learn this information, you are set for life in terms of weight management. What a priceless thing.
Rest is our willpower and being mindful of your habits. No easy task
Agree
I’m 19 hours into my water fast, I’m so determined to reverse my insulin and to lose 35kg because of the truth in the guidance of these doctors. They are so clear and straightforward. Every single thing they say makes so much sense. Can’t wait to meet the new me soon. 🤸🏿♀️
You’re right! I have dr.Berg’s and dr.Fungs books( Get well and lose the weight +The body type)
(Obesity code + Complete guide on fasting)
I’m so happy to have shaded a whooping 15Kg, I’m healthier and going through menopause happily.
10 days into my one meal a day and 9lbs down. Most of it is probably water weight, but no longer bloated and I feel better. Keep it up guys!
How did it go?
@@tmob_leeroy550 If someone remarks the first pounds lost are just water, I respond with: At least it's water you don't have to haul around anymore.
Go keto carnivore w high fault, no carbs. D2 will be gone and you will feel amazing.
I'm a Christian and have been fasting on and off for spiritual reasons for 20 years. It never fails that my mind is sharper my energy level goes up and the terrible head aches go away. I stopped for several years got over wait and was placed on meds for chronic migraines. I got off the meds and started fasting again and to no surprise I'm losing weight and feel so much better!
I'm sure that is a reason why God told us to fast and pray. If we're fasting, we can focus on Him more.
@@julieclark9173 so true. thank u Lord!
Just diagnosed with diabetes arthritis asthma sinuses and more, family passed away from diabetes, appreciate All the prayers from my brothers and sisters in Christ 🙏🏼 God bless!
Thanks to these two gentleman I have turned my life around. Thank you for everything you do.
Totally agreed friend
S Swazers Me too!
Yes!!! ☺ 💕 👍
XOXOX XOXOX
ME TO GOOD LUCK
Congratulations!
I find the longer I fast, the less hungry I get. Almost easier to not eat at all.
People don't believe me when I say that! It is so true though...once I eat then I want to eat more ; even drinking water will set me off. I get hungrier...it's crazy how that works..lol...if course I recognize that eating a nutritious meal is essential. Just saying that it is an interesting observation. Prove that insulin is the culprit.
Amen to that!! I always say the first day is the hardest! After that, it’s just a mental thing
Me too. Especially in the morning I’m not hungry at all. I wait till 2pm still not hungry...
Higher metabolic rate too. Your body is alert and ready to hunt
That is so true fact i don't even feel hungry as before .
Thank you so much I am so riveted. I’m addicted to both doctors lol. I’m losing weight fast on OMAD! I feel fantastic at 59! Thank you thank you thank you. My 88 year old father is on healthy clean keto combined with IF, he’s losing weight slowly and steadily and he is more alert, productive and has less anxiety and depression.
Prayer and fasting works for not only weight loss but also for answer to prayer. 🙏☺️🙏 Shared!
Amen!100% Truth!!
You are so smart and so right. Prayer and fasting go together like peanut butter and jelly!!
Agree! 👏😃👌🙌👍🏼
Menh I was thinking about y God tells us to fast..cos he made us so he knows want we need to live healthy. And yes it has a spiritual aspect but also our physical health..the wisdom of God keeps amazing me.
Man shall not live by bread alone..
The answer has always been Infront of us..
Oh yes to that🙏...
I vote for Nobel prize in physiology to both of them.
yes to Dr Fung 100%
Both BRILLIANT
They’re so amazing
As patients the confusion lies in working out who is telling the truth!
Once you’ve worked that out (it’s these two) you can learn everything you need to know.
We need to give them our own award.
yes Yes and YES!!!
Two angels of our lives
My husband got rid of 8 years of type 2 diabetes,High B P , heart related medicines by just following Keto and IF 18:6
Doctor said that he was on edge of taking insulin injections
But after 3 months of tests, doctor said he doesn’t need to use any medication
I lost 34 lbs , able to reduce my bmi from 35 to 28 with Keto and IF .Still 26 lbs to lose
Thank you for everything Docs
Wow! That is amazing. Thanks for sharing.
This is so refreshing to watch. I don’t like to watch anyone interview Dr Fung they don’t give him a chance to speak and would give their take which is annoying. Impressive Dr Berg. Two powerhouse. Great job. ❤️
Hello. Glad to know that you liked this video by Dr. Berg. Thank you for the comment.
-Dr. Berg's Support Team
The fact that Dr Fung admitted that he once was giving the wrong advice,is monumental ,I take my hat of to him ,you are both great Doctors ,and I wish more Dr would have a second look and re educate themselves.
I wish that anybody looked at me the way Dr Berg looks at Dr Fung
Lmao same
😅😍
hahahaha yes!
That’s hilarious!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
These two gentlemen are simply genius.
They have a heart for humanity. They care. They are children of God. Came at this time to Earth to help us. Knowledge will set us free.
@@lidiaescoto5322 oh the irony 🙂
They both helped me loose weight and get healthy! Thanks to both of you.
I like Dr Fung because he is frank, straight to the point and express himself freely, e.g. scolding idiots idiots, hahaha.
I'm Italian. I live in Venice, Italy. I started to follow both of you a couple of years ago. My weight used to be about 89 kilos. My health was OK but I didn't feel so well. I started Omad and in 8 month I lost 34 kilos. It was great! Now I'm still keeping my weight of 55 kilos very easily. Thank you so much! ❤️❤️
Impressive
that's great, but 55kg sounds a little low? Maybe gain a few kilos?
@@jutanboy Unfortunately, I'm not very tall! My doctor said my weight is ok for my height. Thank you very much for your question. Greetings from Venice!
I fast for 23hrs daily, my skin is soft and glowing And I get a good night's sleep and go to the gym in fasted state of about 20hrs.
No more craving or hunger anymore.
Blessings from Wolverhampton England to you all.
Good for you. From one Brit to another I wish you the best.
Well done Iv been fasting for many years goes back to my modelling days kept it up I’m from Solihull it’s a healthy way to stay healthy and fit.
@@gillianmichele1728 Thank you
Stay safe. I've subscribed to your channel.
@@mariastar8437 Yes I agree with you.
Stay safe. I've subscribed to your channel.
How long did it take to come to this stage. I'm on day 4 and exhausted
I love how Dr Berg doesn't interrupt Dr Fung when he is talking , great interviewer and interviewee
Laura Ingraham should take note.
Oh My Word…. MY TWO FAVORITE DOCTORS IN THE SAME PLACE! Thank you both for all you do to make me healthier.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
Both of them are so calm, loving and kind, while being the top knowledgeable people of this area. I watch both of them daily for a while Now, and I am at my top fitness state, too. Thanks docs!
Cut my sugars, breads, and pastas about 6 months ago after watching DR.Burg, and I barely recognize myself in the mirror today.
James Roberts53 - Awesome! Congratulations to you! 🤓
fifthof -For those trying to heal from obesity , high insulin & sugar in one’s blood -a nice warm trim healthy body beats the temporal satisfaction of eating delicious bread ! When one is healthier , one might be able to include some limited bread & pasta -complex carbs -in two meals a day -especially made from true whole grains -limiting or excluding simple sugars -especially, while as a lifestyle continuing intermittent fasting -eating real Whole Foods. One must get much healthier & trim first to do this -while eating with the suggestions Dr Berg & this wonderful guest dr advises.
James Roberts53 so what did you eat
fifthof bread "can" be nutritionist but the modern day flour is deplete of nutrition and just has empty carbs. I'm from Moldova where bread is a staple. I gave it up. :) except on special rare occasions
James Roberts53 you miss your bread so much that you called Dr. Berg as Dr. BURG [BURGer] 😂😂
In one year I've lost 73.75 inches and 57 lbs and still losing. You two have played a huge part in saving my life
Diedre Bonar That's Great ☺
Sweetetika thank you. It's been rough at times but totally worth it
Diedre Bonar I am sure it must be hard but stories like yours keep me motivated to lose my weight.
Sweetetika just stay strong and remember it isn't a race. Focus on health and the weight loss is a bonus
Delvin Vaz yes but I measure neck, arms, forearms, thighs, calves, ankles, hips, low waist, high waist, bust and under bust. I still have about 60 lbs to go, so all those area when I first started measuring would sometimes show a loss where my hips and thighs would barely budge. So it helped me stay encouraged if that makes sense
There is an incredible humility in being taught and treating patients conventionally, and then doing a 180 shift. So many get stuck, but this is amazing. The humility of both of these men, to listen and learn is phenomenal. ❤️
And look how God rewarded them for their integrity. They have wonderful ministries and are actually helping people, and presumably do not have too much trouble paying the bills.
These two guys saved me from an early death from being a sugar and carb addict. Too many tears to relay the gratitude I have for what they have done for me. Thank you very much.
Glad to help! Be well!
Just a word of thanks to you two gentlemen. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in november 2017. My cholesterol and triglycerides were way high as well as my blood pressure. Was on metformin 1000mg/day and despite all the meds, my sugar levels were still not within reasonable levels. Weight was over 260 lbs ( my scale just could not go any higher ). Doctor was about to increase my medications when I started to watch what you guys were saying about ketogenic diet with intermittent fasting. So I just followed your advice, knowing full well what my doctor told me about my condition ( chronic and progressive, with only getting higher doses of meds ).
As of now, I have lost more than 70 lbs with the ketogenic diet with intermittent fasting and walking 40 minutes daily ( I was doing a 18 hour fast / 2 meal a day regimen ) and now, just to finish losing the last few pounds, I regrouped all my caloric intake to one meal a day ( so called 23 hour fast ). This morning, my blood sugar levels are at 4.6 mmol/l and my last A1C check ( 6 weeks ago is 5.5 mmol /l ). Triglycerides are 0.78 ( 1.46 is about the normal standard ) indicating that I am burning up fat.
I do not hunger and my energy levels are like never before. At age 57, all I can say, I never felt better in all my last 30 years. next week, I am going to see my doctor and he asked me to stop taking the metformin to see where my blood sugar levels stand. It has been more than 10 days and all of my readings are averaging between 4.6 and 5.6 .
Never will I go back to living with my carb diet that got me in such a mess.The food industry is telling you lies!
As for you Dr. Fung, you are a Canadian physician. You must break this out to all Canadians suffering from diabetes. I live in the province of Quebec and over here, about 10 percent of the population has diabetes and it is a burden to our health system.
By the way, refined carbohydrates are poison.
And for all of rest you..... it works, at first it's not easy, but with perseverance and some failures you can pull this off.
Keep up the good work and again Thank you !
congratulations! !! how long did it take u to lose 70 pounds, do u have lose skin? i will appreciate your answer
Great job hun.... congrats for your results... I would really appriciate if you could tell me about your journey so I can help myself too
@Caspean Sea Under supervision of my MD, bit by bit, I lowered my intake of metformin and day by day i monitored my blood sugar level, until i was completly off the metformin . Not only the met, but the blood pressure meds ( lost nearly 100 pounds . Now, I feel 20 years younger and life is great even during the pandemic. More ready that ever to face off this with a way better immune system, I must strain that once you are doing no carbs, your primary fuel source is fat.But never blend fats with a glycemic diet. This is for the rest of your life.However i do cheat ( on family occasions or weekends). A1c runs about 4.8 to 5.6 , so this where i am now and never ever will i go back to what made sick in first place.
@@retroriff are you still diabetic? I know it sounds redundant. but i am curious is you become healthier but still have the insulin problem. I would like to share this with some of my family.
@@rmoreno1826 I am no more suffering from diabetes. On weekends, i eat things that others do. My system is no longer resistant to insulin which means when i consume a high glycemic meal such as a chinese buffet with a generous dessert my blood sugars are normal ( 4.8 mmol/dl ) . The key is insulin resistance which dr Fung speaks abundantly. Once you have destroyed your resistance to insulin ( some people take more time than others ) everything falls back into place. I still do intermittent fasting combined with OMAD whit a low carb diet on weekdays and all is ok. Just like this way i live now. My fiend was diebetic and had stage 4 prostate cancer and he is cancer free now, after a 32 day long fast and many months after, his blood sugars went normal. Hids MD ask if he can share his data whith other colleagues. All I can say is it works and we still are in uncharted waters. But it works. This a matter of making choices and to keep em for life. Hope this may help you.
I have always loved how blunt Jason is. I love listening to him. He tells it like it is.
I also like him, he teach me alot and his representation always interesting .
I feel that same way; plus they're both educated, honest, intellectual, clinically experienced, and dedicated to see the results!!
I love how Dr. Berg let Dr Fung talk about a topic he knows so much about. I love how Dr. Fung just summarized the best weightloss advice: if you want to lost weight do not eat the high insulin rising foods and give your body a time to fast and lower your insulin and you can burn your fat.
Dr fung is a real Dr big difference
@@jacobstravail Exactly ! Dr Fung is a real doctor, not someone just giving advice.
I was just thinking. Have these two ever talked? And wow it just pop up . Both these guys seem very genuine and truly care about there oath as Dr.
These two person were responsible for me loosing 60kg whithin a year. Truly changed my life. Changed my way of thinking and hopefully continue to change the life of so many others through their continuous research and educational videos. Thank you both. Thank you very very much from the bottom of my heart....

Pure class and intelligence. Two gentlemen having a priceless conversation. Thank you.
Dr Fung nails it and Dr Berg just allows it to unfold easily with a smile.
My two favourite teachers 😍😍❤️
I feel so friggn empowered! I actually threw my SNACK of a cheese Danish in the trash!

LMFAO
And then bought another one 3 days later,,
@Raymond Max keep dreaming
Where is the trash can? Asking for a friend who is doing research on .... uh ... trash cans.
These 2 men helped me change and save my life love it 💯lbs. and counting
Week 10 IF keto...32 pounds down!!! I'm almost 45 yrs old and I have hypothyroidism. I feel AMAZING!
Hi hope you doing well please can you give me some ideas for food
@@kater8730 hi! Down 99 lbs maintaining went low carb but now keto again i just feel better on keto
How are you during your IF ? 16:8, 20:4…?
@@TheRosangela38 I eat at about 2pm and stop at like 7pm. I feel great its just become a part of my daily routine
Very informative. My doctor increased my insulin and I gained weight and then she said I had to do something about my weight gain. Now I understand
I just discovered Jason fung literally 5 days ago and was searching for a collab with you two! Boom my two favourite doctors in one video !
Videos By Summerlii wonderful
I just can’t wait until Dr Jason Fung receives his own Nobel prize! Big Pharma may never allow this is my guess. Sad, but let’s keep trying.
One man got nobel prize about fasting making one live longer. But still, he is not that famous to make fasting be pratice because food companies and pharma are gonna loose their businesses.
@@erzcav4793 Autophagy for the Win! Dr Fung winning for the best spokesman out there showing and telling us how to use it. 🏆
He will receive for sure !
@@deanterri5761 FYI AUTHOPHAGY NOBEL PRIZE WAS DONE BY A JAPANESE SCIENTIST IN THE PAST.
Very Happy to see Two Legends Together ❤️
Thank you Dr Berg for inviting Dr Fung and allowing your guest to speak to us. Great video
Love these guys. They actually care about people.
I believe Dr Fung is from Toronto Canada. He rocks.
Both are genius. This video is not for pharmaceutical companies,it is for type 2diabetics.
I love the chemistry between these two, I feel like hey can become super good friends.
These are the two best humanitarians in the medical world. Bless them. I have been listening to all thier podcasts. I have lost over 20lbs and I am off blood pressure medication and off pre Diabetes.
I am a doctor too.. People should follow their advice...
THANK YOU DR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you guys are both doctors then please tell me your sharing this information with patients. If you guys know what you were taught was wrong then are you trying stop the misinformation?
Justin Kerns I’m sure there are doctors out there trying to share information on true health with their patients-Trying to educate them and peel away years of indoctrination from the food industry giants in cooperation with government and media. It’s no easy task! Some patients would rather rely on medication. Others may not be able to face the discipline, or be desperate enough to hear. I wonder how strong a grip on medical school the big pharma and big food industries have...to deny doctors the kind of true education in nutrition that would put the anti-health industries out of business. We need Drs. Berg and Fung, and Drs. Becky Gillespie and her husband Keith...obviously people’s lives have been saved because of them.
@@thestraightroad305 Doctor's by nature tend to believe what they spent $$$, time, and effort learning. Pharmacist, nurses, and dietitians do too. It is counterintuitive to believe everything you were taught is wrong. It generally takes many years of real world observation to convince yourself that what you were taught is wrong. The medical profession is like a Church. Going against the official dogma you were taught is very hard and may have consequences. More, and more medical professionals are learning and teaching the truth. If you show up 40-50 lbs lighter, with better labs for your appointment, most will pay attention. If they don't find a new Doctor / Pharmacist.
OMG finally the voice of reason. Jillian Michaels eat your heart out
These are the two doctors I trust the most for information specific to getting healthy. So happy to see a video with them both!
I was prescribed 8 metformin a day. After fasting and keto diet I no longer take any metformin. Fasting and Keto are my lifestyle from now on. Thanks Dr Berg and Dr Fung...
Two of the smartest Docs bar none, so good to see you both together! God bless you both ...
Jenn Figueroa God bless these men. Thankful for their gifts they share.
Jenn Figueroa not just smart they tell the truth 👍
Yes. I feel the same way, too!
This is like a meeting of the minds! These two men are the most knowledgeable in the field about OMAD and longer term fasting; it's like watching 2 superheroes meet!
❤️
Love how humble Dr. Berg is. He was so focus and taking all in with no interruptions!!! God bless you both!!!
These two saved so many lifes they don't even know , they helped me loose weight after strugling for my whole entire life 😭 bless you two and all of your families 🙏🏻
WHEN I LOOK AT BOTH OF YOU WORKING TOGETHER. TEARS FALL DOWN FROM MY EYES WITH GRATITUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is so true. I reversed my T2 diabetes with in 6 weeks, with IF and OMAD. My doctor nearly fall off his chair when he saw me. Asked me what I did and I told him. He told me he didnt believe in the Low Carb movement but to keep doing what Im doing, he made he laugh.
Sir can you tell ur diet plan and fasting time
this guys book ‘The Diabetic Code’ got me to shed 47 lbs, get off statin, and reverse diabetes!
Well done! How long did that take?
I am not diabetic but my mom is and my grandfather was too, so I need to get my ducks in a row and start IF so I can lose a little bit of weight.
Last year I gave up gluten, sugar and dairy and it was amazing! After 8 months I made the mistake to think I was fully healed lol and started having gluten again....and the weight started to creep up again.... that was stupid. I want to give up those things again and I will keep that as a lifestyle from now on.
@@anam.aria. since March 15th. I’m now down 61 pounds and have pretty much leveled off.
@@buckan8r999 this is absolutely amazing! Well done!
I need to lose about 20lbs, not sure if I could ever do 25-30 lbs, but I am going to read that book and see how it goes.
@@anam.aria. The other two books that I read were 'Eat Rich Live Long' by engineer Ivor Cummins (he's all over UA-cam) and Jeffry Gerber. Also 'Undoctored' by cardiologist William Davis, were absolutely critical in my weight loss and overall health. Keep in mind that exercise was a very small part of my weight loss; 85% is diet alone.
@@buckan8r999 great resources, thanks for sharing! I will try to find them!
I'm so happy I found these two, and Dr. Pradip Jamnadas on UA-cam. I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and very bad fatty liver disease in the beginning of July. I am very overweight. It was so bad to the point where I was about to get bariatric surgery. While waiting for insurance to approve my surgery, I followed these doctors and did Keto and intermittent fasting. Weeks later, my insurance approved me for bariatric surgery and they told me that I qualified because of my BMI during my initial consultation. But because of doing keto and IF, I called the hospital back to cancel my surgery and I disqualified myself from bariatric surgery because I lost so much weight and my BMI went down! I have a long way to go still, and I am unfortunately in a plateau, but I keep going! I am feeling so much better! I have zero pain for the first time in 30 years!
Yes!! What a treat! My two favourite men on UA-cam. Haven’t seen the video yet but am so excited that I had to comment. Thank you, gentlemen! 😁
What happened to documenting your raw diet?
Samantha's Orchids it's very informative yet extremely fun to watch and listen.
specially the 2 cookies and juice box towards the end.
:) add another one, Dr valter Longo ;)
Yay the dream team!!
(Dr.Berg&Dr.Fung)
Keto for life!!!!
Dr Eric is a good listener that's why he is also a good adviser.
Dr. Berg is a great interviewer. You can tell that he values his guest well by letting them speak uninterrupted on ideas they are best at. That's honoring your guest because that's the very reason why they are on your show so they can share their ideas. Dr. Fung speaks coherently, I really enjoy listening to him. Overall, this interview is hands-down one of the best interviews I have ever watched/listened to. A lot of gems here. Thanks a lot for this!
Totally agree and was also thinking it would have been an added bonus if Sten Ekberg had been part of it too. Love all three.
My heroes!! It's just FANTASTIC to see/hear both of these fine doctors together. I started Keto/Intermittent Fasting in May and have lost 17 lbs so far. Not bad for a 68 yr old woman who's still fine tuning things. Thank you both so very much.
Ahh the dream team :) The men responsible for me seeing the first signs of a 6 pack in my life.
Two legends. I’m down 16 pounds in 10 days and feel fantastic. This shi. Works!
Excellent. Keep up the good work!
Dr Fung had me lmfao. The whole eating 10 times a day to lose weight, "it sounds really stupid because it is really stupid". And then the follow-up of rolling around in the dirt to get clean. I'm going to have to follow this guy! Thank you Dr Berg, for introducing me to him. And thank you for not talking over him like so many hosts do.
Yay...so happy to see both my health mentors in the same frame.
Same feeling here
Ditto:)
So much value here. This video should be mandatory viewing for all doctors. Why are our family doctors not on board with this common sense approach?
AMEN!!
OUR DOCTER'S NEED TIME FOR THIS NEW KNOWLEGE. IT IS PROGRESSING. AS THEY HAVE BEEN TOUGHT OTHERWISE. TIME IS A HEALER AND WE CAN HELP OTHER PEOPLE TO LEARN AND SAVE OUR CHILDREN AND GRAND CHILDREN. GOOD LUCK. HAPPY FUTURE.
When I asked my doctor about intermittent fasting he said No, No, No. I might add he is a diabetic, so I don't think he is going to help reverse me, if he hadn't helped himself.
Because there is too much money to be made by Big Pharma for Dr's. ..any doctor that prefers to medicate you, rather than treat you are more concerned about their bank account than about you!
@@Kiwiscanfly02 yup, the diabetes foundation NEVER talks about curing you but teaching you how to "live with diabetes " . There s no $$ in a cure. The web site is full of "healthy" recepies that include lots of carbs.
Best dialogue I have seen between two most intelligent guys.. experts in their subject! 👌🏻
dr Berg is really enjoying this interview. :) jason fung is excellent, been listening to him, you are both great.
Doing IF 16/8 for 10 days and all my premenopausal hot flashes and night sweats disappeared!, used to have up to 40 hot flashes per day!
That's fantastic !
Fascinating!
Did you cut out caffeine and sugar. I'm trying to get to this point
Bombshell57 definitely sugar! You can have a cup coffee in morning/cream but not sugar!
I never heard that before . I hope that happens to me too.
21:07 "Fasting is hard..."
I just want to point out that fasting is a LOT easier if you are already fat adapted, IE, you've been on Keto for a while. When you are carb addicted, fasting is painful in the extreme, as your body really is starving, it's starving for carbs and cannot easily mobilize fat for fuel that it could otherwise replace the carbs with. When you are keto/fat adapted, your body is never actually starved for fuel, it has fat reserves, it 'knows' it has fat reserves, and it is easily able to mobilize that fat to weather the fast (which is for many of us, half the point). By all means, follow Dr. Fungs advice and learn to fast regularly, but I highly recommend being solidly into eating keto for at least a month or two first.
I am by the way a regular faster, in addition to being keto/OMAD (One Meal a Day). I do a one day fast at least once a week and I do a three day fast once a month. As I write this, I happen to actually be on day three of one of those monthly total fasts. I am not hungry.
This is so true! I started keto and then read about IF and i am now doing it and have been doing 14-16 hours and sometimes i don't even feel to eat but i still do because i believe i must. It has been easier than i thought.
Exactly what I told my wife today.
One of the biggest reason fasting is easy for me is because I don't have to cook for 3 meals which saves so much time, money and stress
I found being on keto makes it extremely easy to do 18 hours intermittent fasting.
Yes I can’t fast well otherwise.
Oh. Ok. Seems practical. Now I feel slightly silly but thanks for that tip. Appreciate it.
I'm on keto last 4 weeks and had the same conclusion, it's much much much easier to fast, 18 or even 20 hours...
How do you all fast for 18hrs. I love breakfast and hate lunch. My family eats dinner at 7pm, 6:45 at the earliest.
@@squirl2011 Maybe focus on just having two meals, and not the 18:6 IF. Monitor if it helps, and if it does, maybe you will just have to have your dinner separately. I know how it feels, I can't go on full keto as I stay with my mum (she cooks what she likes, and eating hours forbid me to stick to 18:6).
However, sticking to 2 meals a day and as much as possible, eating food with more vege (e..g. salad/subway for me), has already improve my health by leaps - because I am very fat, so any little improvement is a big improvement.
Good Luck to you :)
Thank you, Dr. Berg. This is the first time I have been able to listen to Dr. Fung uninterrupted.
Thank you, Dr. Fung, for sharing this invaluable information and research.
Thank you both for making this knowledge available to us.
Much, much love and appreciation!
