Hi , yes does work . If you have apple cider vinegar before also helps ( except the taste of it 🫤 yuk ) ... been following you for a long time , as well as the " glucose goddess " .
I am south Indian vegetarian & 67. Diabetic since 17 years. I started 16 to 18hr fasting by skipping my break fast. Today is my fifth month. My blood sugar reduced to 145 from 250. And my tablets reduced to half. These readings are without any exercises. Some times my morning and afternoon sugar has touched to 60. And if i start my exercise and 24 hr fasting I may discontinue my tablets. My gratitude to Dr. Jasonfung. I always remember your help. I welcome your kind suggestions to reverse my insulin resistance. Thank you.
Adding 24-72 hour fasting does help much more, as it's a miracle for Autophagy (Nobel Prize). It is easier if you set your mind to it and plan in advance and keep discipline. Dr. Brad Stanfield (UA-cam) explained how he does it and why, Dr David Sinclair, so many studies.
I'm a type 1 diabetic and recently came across this information. I started eating low-carb veggies and protein 1st. This has made a significant difference. If I want carbs, I eat them last. My bloodsugars are stable. Wish I knew this 20 years ago.
Thank you Jason, I believe your message has saved my life. First watched you 3 years ago before virus and started immediately IF/Carnivore. I was a train wreck 3 blood pressure pills weight 235. Now steady 160. Now pressure under control with no pills where before it was not. It was very difficult for the first month but gradually got easier. Had to fire 2 doctors (?). Know this is long and you probably won't read but thank you for giving me more time with my 3 grandkids.
@B F. I think the agency I gained through Ketovore 0mad losing 60lbs and bp under control gave me the courage to say to 3 MDs, 1 PA thank you but no thank you. Pills are ok but NOT the only therapy.
Please check into the minerals ( Potassium, Magnesium, Chromium, etc ) to help reduce insulin resistance. Pima Indians...check out their solution to their big diabetes problem. I watch Dr. Eric Berg here on UA-cam...check his videos out. God bless you l. 🕊️😇❤️🙏
Very important research here for Asian folks who ‘must’ eat carbs like rice, noodles, dumplings and steamed buns! I’ve heard salad before fat and protein is also a good idea.
Great video! I have always had my son eat his protein and fat first, because he has a very limited appetite, and I want these building blocks in his body before he feels full. His carbs and any treats follow, and these are easier to eat so require less appetite. After reading your book a couple years ago, I felt even better about this decision. I talked with him about the effects of sugar on the body, so he understands why we put the building blocks in our body first, and his teacher spontaneously reported that he always eats his main dish I pack for him in school before his sides. I am so joyful to know he continuously applies this, even on his own.
You're a good parent. I wish my parents were more informed about this. They basically raised me on carb heavy meals as a child which always left me hungry and wanting more sugar no matter how much i ate. To this day, as an adult, i find it hard to shake off the sugar addiction but ive found IF and protein rich meals do help a lot.
2 months ago, I read your book and started clean fasting... GAME CHANGER. I am 33 years old and weight less than I did as a teenager. 15 pounds that I could never lose vanished. Not counting calories. Not pushing myself in exhausting HIIT workouts 2 hours/day. And I feel so much happier and more peaceful. I eat intuitively now and I always want to eat veggies in oil or butter and fermented veggies after my prolonged fasts. My body CRAVES it. I still have cognitive dissonance about the fact that I am eating so much more fat and losing so much fat, but I hope I can wrap my head around it soon! TY for all you do! *^_^*
Yesterday, I had a tiny bit of pasta with some chicken and my blood sugar shot up to 160. Then, for dinner, I had a salad first and then I had 2 slices of pizza after the salad. My blood sugar only went up to 111. It didn’t spike so high cause I had the salad first! I was so happy to see that. Eating in this order really does make a big difference.
@@baz9653 False. The fiber from the vegetables will coat the inside of the intestines and prevent the glucose spike from happening. There are studies on this. Look up Jessie Inchauspé. She speaks all about this. She’s a scientist that specializes in metabolic health. You can find her videos on UA-cam having interviews with Dr Mark Hyman and other functional medicine doctors. She is also on Instagram. Also, having the salad first obviously gave me an excellent glucose reading despite eating pizza. I believe my own eyes. You don’t even need the protein. Eating fiber before the carbs is enough to blunt glucose. I drizzled olive oil on my salad, so I had the healthy fats there, as well. But it looks like you’re a body builder and body builders don’t believe in eating vegetables. So it’s typical that you would say something like that. Stop giving false information!
The pasta breaks down easier/quicker than the pizza crust.... I would recommend a lot less carbohydrates in your diet the only purpose they serve is to raise glucose and insulin
@@Paul-hl5ls I don’t eat much carbs. This was only for experimentation purposes. And still, you have to admit that was a very good glucose reading after eating pizza.
My father used to work in a restaurant where there are always japanese tourists eating and he noticed that they eat their meats first and their rice and beer last and he always notice that they are lean despite drinking beer and it's also common knowledge how incredible the longevity of most japanese people despite their rice prominent diet, so now I understand due to the recent studies and also I stumbled upon Jessie Inchauspe's "hacks" based on research and observations she done while wearing continuous glucose monitors that it actually indeed helps in preventing insulin spikes, I hope this knowledge spreads more, you dont even have to change your diet drastically, just have to change the order of your food and it helps a lot with preventing the long term dangers of glucose spikes, thank you Dr. Jason Fung and the rest of the health community for spreading this information for people trying to better their health, bless you people.
rice doesn't taste good on its own so Japanese cuisine has a lot of side dishes that you eat with the rice. the difference is that Japanese food portions are tiny, especially compared with US portions. also, Japanese naturally eat a lot of seafood and veg and sometimes meat. they are a lean people and they are one of the longest living on the planet too.
Jason Fung would be pharmaceutical companies' number 1 enemy. I hope the msg spread through the world faster enough so people realised the benefit of fasting, this will solve a lot of health issues and world food shortage issues. Keep up the good work ! love every videos
Fantastic, thank you!!! I honestly get TIRED of hearing keto everything. In my job and life demands, I do not always have the ability to strictly control my diet or what food I can access...and a physically demanding job out in the field. In other words, I often have to eat anything I can get my hands on. This is really helpful! Thank you for keeping in mind that not everyone is die hard "anti-carb" or "zero.carb" or full keto control.
I'm so with you on the over abundance of the keto message. It has almost driven me from this way of life, thinking it isn't for me. I also appreciate this message.
Keto is overrated. Long term its catabolic. You need carbs, just healthy carbs, not processed junk. Just eat real food healthy food avoid processed, and fast often. Keep it simple
Wow this is great information Dr Fung. Front load with proteins, vegetables, and healthy fats first then eat carbs only if you are still hungry. Thank you so much for helping us improve our health.
Thanks to doctors like you, I was able to figure out what was wrong with me and fix it before it got worse and turned into diabetes. I was able to get rid of my high blood pressure by doing what you and a couple of other health and medical experts on UA-cam told me to do. My doctor only cared about giving me medicine and never tried to figure out or address the root cause. I don't know how to say thank you. Thank you just isn't enough.
I tried this today and it worked. I will eat protein and fat before carbs now at every meal. It helped me to avoid a sugar spike. It let me get my hunger under better control. This is a tip for life. I am combining it with intermittent fasting and, of course keeping the carbs as low as possible. Preceding carbs with protein/fat is a very significant, tool in the food wrangler toolbox. Thanks, Dr. Jason Fong.
Dr Jason, your videos have really helped me follow IF more efficiently and I could convince my family to do thst as well. My husband’s blood pressure pill was stopped in 6 months and my father’s (72 years) diabetes and blood pressure pills came down to half and his need for insulin stopped, his kidney function and blood creatinine levels showed kidney recovery whereas doctors had told that it’s irreversible. It’s nothing but miracle. Although I lost about 10 kgs of weight, I’m unable to see any changes in my blood pressure and I was hoping if you had any guidance for me. I’m doing IF and really want to come off of my bp pills. I’m 39 years old. Many thanks.
Thank you for this simple “hack” in your eating. I have an air fryer and my first meal is breakfast. I always break my fast with a protein. A piece of fish or a chicken thigh or beef 4 ounces max air fried. Combines some of the following garlic or asparagus, Brussels sprouts, carrots or cauliflower or garlic . All air fried in either olive oil or avocado oil. No carbohydrates never checked the weight loss but tightened up my belt to the last hole. Of course I fast 16/8. Goes without saying being on this channel.
@@sl4983 You eat for a period of 8 hours in a day and eat nothing the other 16, but can drink water. For example, you could fast from 6 PM to 10 AM and eat from 10 Am to 6PM. That would be 16 hours fasting and 8 hours eating or 16/8
I don't speak ENGLISH but I understand this message....THANK YOU.. GRACIAS POR REGALAR TAN VALIOSO CONOCIMIENTO.... UN SALUDO DESDE HERMOSILLO SONORA MEXICO...
I did this just a few days ago when my dtr brought home cookies from work-she’s a mixer at Crumbl. She knows not to bring them home often because I can resist everything but temptation.... I did save half of a lemon blackberry cookie to have after my one meal for the day which I ate in the following order; hamburger casserole, small serving of roasted veggie combination-cauliflower/broccoli/green bean and mushroom; cultured whole milk cottage cheese with a few strawberries, followed by my half of a cookie. Not only didn’t blood sugar rise afterward, it went down as it normally does after a meal of fats. Of course it isn’t advisable to do this often but for occasional use it actually does work.
Thank you Dr. Fung, just a small note, the study at 3:48 requires at least a break of 10 minutes after eating the first item , so if you eat vegetables first , make sure to eat it before 10 minutes of starting with the rest of the meal , I think it is very easy to incorporate this into our lives even if you don't have salad just eat whatever whole vegetables you have .
I’ve heard it said frequently to focus on your protein and your fat when you’re creating your meal and eating your meal. So that doesn’t leave much room for carbohydrates and they could be put off to the end. This makes so much sense. I’ve been trying to observe this since the new year. It’s going pretty well!
I love how just one of your short videos can give me life-changing information..better information than my own doctor can give me like, ever!! Thanks Doctor.
Dear Dr Fung Your podcasts are gems, your books treasure troves. I hope to see the day your material finds its way into schools, recognized for its tremendous educational value. Thank you for sharing so passionately. I love reading some of the comments... only positive and uplifting! You are touching and changing so many lives for the better, including mine and my family's. Sending you blessings.
Dear Mr Fung, I had a few trips to Japan early 90s and had dinners at small eatery where they served prawns and vegetable tempuras and fish in a particular order. Being Asian I had expected a bowl of rice to go with whatever was served. Much to my surprise a small bowl of rice was served last when all the good stuff was eaten. I do not know the science behind the japanese way of eating rice until your explanation why it is good to do so. Fully understood..
Interesting. I've noticed over the years, that always eating a small salad or veggie soup as a starter would help keep my weight in check. I attributed this mainly to 'filling' up on low calorie food first. But maybe blunting my blood sugar response to the main dish played a role, too.
@@TheCompleteGuitarist Not usually. I know, apple cider vinegar especially is very healthy...but I do not really enjoy acidic salad dressings. I prefer something yoghurt based.
I learned this food consumption order from Jessie Inchauspe few months ago. She say , Don’t eat naked carbs first’. She told, eat salad first, fat and protein second and carbs at the end of meal. I follow this order and it really works.
@@victoriakushner6752 . Absolutely. I haven’t read her book but I have watched a few interviews in which she has explained food eating orders. I just followed her instructions and worked very well.
Thank you Dr. Fung, this was such a great tip to have 40% less glucose (big difference), just by switching the order. Eat protein and fat's FIRST, I can do THAT! 👍
Better still, consider (1) Apple Cider Vinegar first; (2) Then eat protein & fat; (3) Eat slowly, e.g., talking to someone...; (4) Eat only 20 gm of carbs or less; (5) Light exercise, e.g., walking 30 mins after eating... (6) Drink more water, e.g., green tea... (7) Include Probiotics daily, e.g., kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi......
Thank you Dr. Fung, I have 2 other family members who are now following you! There A1c is getting better. Sharing your knowledge is so valuable to many🙏
A physician that thinks with his own brain. I love it. Of course... when simple carbs mix with other macronutrients, in the stomach, it slows down the 'release' of carbs into blood. I had thought this and you confirmed it. Thank you for understanding and sharing mechanisms of action.
Thanks! Excellent presentation !!! I look forward to testing it out when I get my next CGM, as I do eat some starches with my evening meal…for now anyways!
In my experience it really works, as a child when we ate our meal we were not allowed to consume rice before meat, I was thinking back then there is no logic to consume the carbs in the end of the meal but now I know.😁😊😁 Thank you for answering my childhood question.
And don't forget to try out fasting, too! Some of the many benefits of fasting on the immune system, blood pressure, blood sugar and anti-aging, all backed up by clinical data: Thymus stem cells are regenerated, which suppresses aging and renews the immune system. Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion of bacteria and viruses by the immune system. Blood pressure is quickly and dramatically lowered, which is very important for a good outcome with the current pandemic. Fasting increases nitric oxide, which has manifold postive effects like reducing arterial plaque. Weight loss from fasting only loses10% lean tissue and 90% fat compared to the typical 25% lean tissue and 75% fat lost when calorically restricting for long periods. Blood clotting is reduced and blood clots and arterial plaque are reabsorbed into the body. Vitamin D plasma levels are increased, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy! Blood sugar and insulin are lowered, allowing white blood cells to move more freely throughout the body and do their job. Ideal blood sugar is around 80. Some viruses activate glycolosis (the release of sugar in the body) and clinically it has been shown that decreasing glucose metabolism in the body weakens the influenza virus. It's absolutely fine for cortisol to be high while fasting, because it produces sugar from fat instead of lean tissue ua-cam.com/video/giEDadzoErs/v-deo.html The hormone Leptin is an immunomodulator that keeps the body from attacking itself and obesity causes leptin resistance. Fasting very quickly reduces leptin resistance and leptin levels and one day of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half and gets your immune system working properly again! When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell which are used to produce organelles and proteins. This means the mechanisms needed by viruses to replicate are by and large unavailable when you are in a deeply fasted state. It stimulates the AMPK complex and activates autophagy. Autophagy (literally self eating) will cause cells to recycle foreign matter such as viruses and kill cancerous and senescent cells. AMPK does many helpful things in the body including activating the body's antioxidant defenses. Does fasting burn muscle? In most cases no! ua-cam.com/video/teQIaU6wp2o/v-deo.html Fasting can make you gain muscle faster: ua-cam.com/video/5RM8GRzsIIg/v-deo.html Deep ketosis virtually eliminates chronic inflammation in the body. This can offset the life threatening symptoms of viral pneumonia which effectively kills you through inflammation. This also creates BHB ketones in your body, which also help your immune system and anti-oxidative system, especially in the brain. Ketones also provide an additional energy source during infection, which is critical when trying to fight off a bug. In fact you can have as much as three times the total energy available in your blood when you are in deep ketosis, or even more. It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency and thereby making cells better able to fight off infection. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism and cancer prevention! Fasts from 36-96 h actually INCREASE metabolic rate! ua-cam.com/video/BeC_gIR2Z14/v-deo.html Your body releases interferon which is also triggered by the body during viral attacks to shut down the replication ability of the surrounding cells and stop infections. After 72 hours or more fasted, your body actually recycles large numbers of immune bodies and creates new ones, rejuvenating your entire system. When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells. This kills these cells off completely. Senescent cells are responsible for the effects of aging and are the root cause of the development of cancer. If it were possible to destroy them all it would completely stop aging and cancer. That is not possible but fasting can help limit these effects by killing off many of the affected cells and limiting the future effects of aging. Fasting also releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth, helping a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers. In fact, the biochemical precursor to BDNF is beta-hydroxybutyrate, which is the same ketone the body produces to nourish the brain while fasting. Autophagy induced by fasting even helps hair regrow. What breaks a fast? ua-cam.com/video/7aRLsCpxy3o/v-deo.html Dieters losing weight through intermittent fasting show greater reduction in waist size and increase in insulin sensitivity for the same weight lost and alternate day fasters were shown to lose fat while gaining muscle at the same time over a six month period. Fasting has been shown to increase bone marrow volume by 10% and levels of carnosine in the body in as little as a few weeks. Fasts of several days will not affect short term female fertility and may increase long term fertility especially in women with PCOS. Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level. Eating one meal a day can bring most of these benefits to a lesser degree, and adding a few entire days off from eating per week will have even more effect especially when starting to feel poorly. Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia. Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. Those with Addison's disease may also be unable to fast without liberal use of exogenous ketones, depending on severity. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness then simply break the fast and seek advice.

@@LTPottenger You posted this as a response to someone else's comment. You should post it as its own comment so that more people see it. And then repost it and then repost it again. You spent a lot of time compiling important information and more people should see it and have it accessible. Perhaps create a channel also. Do you have any suggestions for getting to where I can can comfortably fast for longer periods? I do 18-20 hours easily but it want coffee with heavy cream in the morning.

We eat everything together. A taste of and a taste of that Maybe that's why we had a flab. We did eat a lot and we ate in moderation. I was tall and slim. Fast metabolism. But when I got in my 50's my metabolism slowed down. Mom didn't make desserts. She didn't cook breakfast so it was like I.F. 10:30 am on the dot Rice veg and meat 5:00pm Rice veg meat Then next meal at 10:30 am It was her daily routine.
I have been eating this way most of my adult life and it works, its just the first time I see a video on this, quite often people would ask me why I eat this way and I would tell them it makes me feel better, I have been weight lifting for almost 50 years and I believe this is the most efficient way to eat and keep making gains.
Always enjoy and learn so much . I’ve never struggle with weight or any health conditions I watch and listen to your channel for preventive care. Thank you for always sharing and giving all of us the best information you possibly can so we as your listeners can learn and apply thank you
Sandi, I really admire you! The great majority of people don't act until they have already developed problems. You are one of that very small percentage of people who prevent problems so that they don't need to cure them. God bless you! By the way, you have a very beautiful smile!
Another very informative and useful talk . On UA-cam I recently found someone who had a problem with oats ( unrefined ) causing extreme blood sugar spiking (certainly a problem I had and gave up eating oats as a consequence ) . He experienced by eating a boiled egg before eating the oats and his blood sugar hardly spiked at all !
@@neardeathexperience1111 I will have a look for the video again - it wasn't one of the regular ones I watch . I was baffled by the Oats thing because they were meant to have a high satiety rating . They certainly didn't for me - crikey when I was eating one bowl I would already be thinking about the next one . I am not type 2 but probably strayed into pre type 2 territory, but I started looking at diabetic forums and so many people were complaining that oats were spiking their blood sugar and giving them gout etc . Do I stopped eating them as part of my low carb journey . Pastor Dennis ( beat diabetes ) did an experiment where he compared oats to a very typical high sugar breakfast cereal . The sugary cereal spiked his blood sugar less than the oats !!! I might add that I was eating the most unrefined type oats . You would expect those refined quick cook oats to be quickly absorbed ✌️.
@@michaeldillon3113 wowwwww really? Yet I do know people who don't spike after eating oats at all ....I think it's trial and error to be honest now and eat to the meter kinda way of life. I'm going to mix steel cut oats with almond flour and flaxseed and then test after my work outs.
@@neardeathexperience1111 Yes I think there are some general rules about healthy eating but there is a big spectrum of low carb to carnivore and individuals have to try and find their best place on it . I am probably like Dr Ken berry and can barely tolerate carbs at all - hence a high wholegrain vegetarian diet nearly killed .me . I had particularly dramatic health improvements when I gave up bread - initially for Lent , but ultimately pretty much for good thus far . Good luck on your own journey ✌️.
@@michaeldillon3113 aw yeah I think I will test my bloods and carbs with what I can tolerate and not ....am about to make my own keto style "bread" to go with my soup I've made today for the next two days. I think with some more knowledge and wisdom I can do this 😊👍🙏 good luck on your journey also and thank you so so much for the amazing information you've shared
I always appreciate Dr. Jason's willingness to share his insight to reverse the diabetes without any reward. I had benefited it myself, especially where the medical world is only interested in our pocket instead of our health.
Absolutely love your book jason fung, im half way through and im absolutely glued to each chapter! I think its so special to find people doing good work in the environment that health and academia is in at the moment. Thanks alot for inspiring me, not just for your great explanations but the manner which you go about your work is inspiring in itself.
Thank you Dr Fung, I have been a follower for 4 years and have 4 of your books. This is a Great hack! I will religiously follow it from now on. I have noticed That sometimes my blood sugar will spike and sometimes it will stay totally flat with the same meals. I thought maybe it had something to do with time of day or weather I exercised that day, but I couldn’t figure it out. It just seemed random. I just tried to reduce carbs as much as possible, but I love white rice, so it was difficult. Now I will have a salad with vinegar and oil or anti-pasta (meats, olives, cheeses) first. I love those foods, so it’s easy to do. Then I will eat my rice and main meal. Thank you for all that you do!
This makes sense as a child of the 60's we always had to eat our main first or else we had no pudding and there was a lot less obesity back then. Good point about the bread when going out for a meal I have not ate bread now for 8 months and am down 80lbs.
I have not eaten bread for over five years. Though I may have had more weight loss in the numbers game, I applaud you for the excesses that you have gotten off... 👍
It si perfect if first you eat the fibers, the salad. After the meat and after the carbs. There is a book where I found this, writtn by Jessie Inchauspe, glucose revolution
Great advice, as an Italian in my meals I usually have at first a carbo dish (such as pasta, rice, etc..) and after the proteic food with some vegetables. I've often wondered if a reversed dish sequence could affect the post prandial blood GI; here I get the answer. The goal I'm pursuing is to avoid the post prandial drop of focus which could happen with such meals and is due to the digestive effort and the GI spike.
I just made things simple enough for me to follow, so as to not allow the forever craving that I use to have when eating carbohydrates of the icky kind. I went carnivore.
Really, you may be the first Italian that I came across that eats carbs first!!! I'm from very Italian part of NJ and my extended family and friends are all Italians. They ALWAYS start meals w/h salads or proteins w/ fats (muscles, clams, cold cuts and cheese). Only then they move to carby main course like pasta. They even eat salads before having pizza. Most are in great shape!!! Based on what I've seen, this video makes total sense why Italians stay lean despite carb heavy diet...I was always so jealous, now I now their secret ))))
Growing up with Italians in Australia i can very well remember it was often a soup first followed by a pasta dish then the main course of fish , chicken or beef.. Now working in Italy I observe a similar pattern.. Of course it's not say that on some regions it could be different but generally throughout this was my own experience.. Pasta almost never eaten as a main course..
When Dr Fung is on Insulin: Off Glucose: Off Glucagon: on Endorphins:on You are the most valuable treasure of the planet Earth at least for me, a fountain of eternal joy. Lots of Love from continent Asia!!!!!
Thank YOU, Dr. Jason Fung, for giving us informative information. You youtube videos have helped millions of lives!!! You are truly a great doctor who is using your knowlege to save and improve lives of people all over the whole! THANKSSSSSS!
My trainer told me never eat a carb without a protein....like with a snack.. I do eat my protein first...usually to full to eat carbs. I have lost & maintained 80lbs of fat loss over 2 yrs doing IF along with omad/2mad...depending on my workout schedule.
As always, very helpful and interesting Dr Fung. Through following your guidelines, I have been able to lose 25 kg so far when nothing else had ever worked for me long term before. Whilst I still have a long way to go with my weight loss, I still would have been at square one if my GP hadnt suggested you to me and I am very grateful to you both. Not only have I managed to lose the weight but I wake up with so much more energy and I am active in a way that I hadnt been for years. So from the bottom of my heart, Thank you so much and please keep up the great work you do.
@@lifesart1. my husband and I do time restricted eating (16:8) and try to lower our carbohydrate intake. If you havent tried it, I suggest you give it a go, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and was on medication and had had high blood pressure for years, was on tablets for diabetes and am no longer, was on three different blood pressure medications without the blood pressure budging and am now on 2 tablets for it on my way to decrease to 1 😀 was also considering obesity surgery but now no longer need it. I guess the main thing is that I am not frightened that I am going to be in an early grave anymore and that my kids will hopefully have me around a lot longer.Good luck to you and hope it works as well for you as for us 💜
When I was raising my kids and it was always fast food because Mom & Dad BOTH worked...fast food burgers & fries...fast food pasta and unlimited breadsticks were our go-to meals. ALWAYS had the bread, loads and loads of bread. Which is why I found your channel and other channels like yours: Iʻm pretty sure I was diabetic before going on keto, dropping all grains and all sugars. Now I eat NO grain-based carbs, and very few carby vegetables. This "sequencing" idea makes total sense to me.
Very informative, thank you . I do not have much of carbs at home but it is great to know when I eat out and there is no way to avoid food that includes carbs.
Yes there are tons of ways to limit or avoid carbs while eating out. Salads, meats, vegetables that aren’t loaded with sauces and aren’t normally cooked with added sugar, like asparagus, Brussel sprouts, greens etc. you can’t avoid 100% carbs even at home due to nearly 100% of real foods will have at least a trace of carbs. Choose wisely.
For sure I will start tonight. Thanks Dr. Fung .I know it will work. Your advice has always worked for so many people I know. Your IF and OMAD works like a charm. Love your videos
Dr. Fung, Can you speak about how eating rice with beans is a complete protein and if eating them together doesn't spike your insulin? Or does it? Also white rice or brown...which is better? I'm trying to incorporate more plant based eating and would love to hear what you have to say about it. I appreciate you and watch your videos everyday. Thank you for all you do!
I have a question for Jason, My husband and I have been doing the Keto and intermittent diet for over 5 years, but recent two years he had an annual checked up and told by DR. that his triglyceride cholesterol , high blood pressure and glucose are pretty high and got to take some medications. what? we didn’t eat the regular sugar and only put fewer berries in the home made green drink every day ). But there’s few good things also happened to us too.1. This diet has increased our immune system ( we haven’t had any cold or flu since this diet)2. no bloating after every meal. So now I don’t know what to do with this diet ! continue or stop. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks
Dr. Berry has a channel on here, he is an MD keto specialist out of Tennessee. He talks about this as well. Als look into the amounts and types of fats you're eating.
@@MSJ12333 Use animal fats like tallow instead of oils for cooking. You also mention a green drink, what's in that? You may be eating too much protein and not enough fat, look up gluconeogenesis where the body makes it's own glucose (so you don't have to eat sugar to have high blood sugar). Lastly, the high blood pressure may be related to insufficient or too much salt, depending on your physiology. Or, it could be from something like gum disease! The diet may just needs tweaking a bit. Good luck.
You would need to know the ratio of things, such as what *type* of LDL, if it's large particle it should be fine, but small particle sLDL is what to watch for. Also how high is HDL? A lot of people use triglycerides/ HDL to see if they are actually in a problem zone
I’m definitely going to try to eat this way. The fasting has dropped my blood sugar tremendously though. I only eat 3-4 days a week now. Thanks Dr. Fung.
Thanks Jason because of your guidelines I feel better healthier and I stay in shape! With inflation it’s the best time to eat less and smarter and loose weight too many obesity
As a child I was never overweight. I also devoured the wonderful meats my mom cooked first, being coerced into eating the veggies before I could leave the table. Perhaps that, along with the fact that we didn't snack, was a big factor.
vegetable first, then protein and fat, lastly carbs. check out the glucose goddess. she has scientific data on food order. She is a scientist, not a doctor.
@@usersoxllabu You don't eat Pizza or Pasta until never, especially if you don't want to turn Diabetic. You finished Main Protein and Fat and non starchy veggies (that is SALAD most often). Then wait 10 min and eat carbs remaining 1/4 of your plate (of course if you want to stay healthy). In Italy they serve both Pizza and large pasta cheap things to American tourists, they don't eat that often themselves. You choose quality of what you eat and what you should eat less of (very improper for Heart Attack and Brain Strokes and Diabetes Pizza and Pasta should be eaten maybe once a month).
There was a book by Michel Montignac “Eat Yourself Slim” that I read many years ago. He explained about carbs and why the French don’t get fat eating them. It’s the same principle that Dr. Fung is speaking of.
That probably goes hand in hand, I mean the kind of food and eating less. I'm swiss, eating quite similar to our french neighbors, we don't skimp on butter, oil, full-fat cheese and so on. Was in the States many years ago, people around me were shocked about the butter and cheese amounts I've eaten (predicted me heart attack and clogged blood vessels). Didn't scare me, cause I knew, my ancestors eaten similar and almost without exception, all reached a healthy age over 90 years. But what struck me, was that everyone around me always seemed hungry and snacking. I've only eaten once or twice a day and felt full and active. Never breakfast, just a tee or coffee and then, in the morning, body activity does it almost by itself, cause without something in your stomach you feel liftet and weightless. Well time goes on, more than 30 years have passed since then, I'm still healthy and activ, never had a doctor's appointment. The same with salt, enough natural sea salt or Himalayan salt (your body will tell you), no refined and certainly no fluorinated salt. But everybody is different and has to find out what works best for them. Just something to think about.
I'm African. I' grew up eating our local dishes which had lots of carbs, yet we were mostly lean and didn't have these diseases. I'm starting to wonder if the issue is more than carbs. I watched a well researched presentation on UA-cam ("Diseases of Civilization). It showed that polyunsaturated fats was the common denominator (culprit). That made a lot of sense to me. I'm for low carb and I do practice it, but now listening to Dr Fung, I'm beginning to feel that perhaps the real enemy is the over-processing (and toxic chemicals) in our food.
Love your videos, Dr Fung! It's interesting that I used to eat my salad first, then sadly, my body said get to the toilettes ! I now - if I eat a salad - eat it after my eggs and meats. Now my body cannae push that veg through! I hope this helps a lot of people! Be well!
@@erickminor 100% agree ... I now rarely eat much veg. When I do, I don't have any responses anymore (gut fixed). I appreciate your suggestion! Thank you!
Why are you even eating salad ? It is absolutely pointless with no nutritional value you may as well just go into your garden and start eating the grass 🤦🏻♂️
@@baz9653 I would eat grass, but I don't have enough stomachs ... kidding! You're 100% right! I nary eat salads. I was suggesting to folks who "absolutely must" have their salad to eat it last. Thanks, Baz!
Woah! This could be a game chamber for me! I've never lost weight eating omad. Going off sugar screws up my monthly cycle. I'm going to try this right away because I almost always snack on fruit while I cook my main meal.
@@FeFeronkaMetallica Il agree. Productive aged females need all of the proteins and animal based fats that they can get, to be ready for the reproduction journey, but likewise be ready for the nursing of her baby. Yes, I am saying it here also, baby formula does the baby harm; a loving mother will breast feed always.
Thank you so much Dr Jason Fung for all that you do. I love and appreciate your teachings. I will give this a try to see my outcome. Question: Are side carbs really needed ... (Rice, Potato, Pasta etc..) I know that rice (Purple Rice) is what I eat has some great nutrients in them. So smaller portions like 2 Table Spoon serving should be surfice instead of 8 ounces serving at the end of my meal instead of throughout my meal? How much carbs are actually needed to help the protein and nutrients from the meat, beans and vegetables to help absorb their nutrients? Or are carbs just not really necessary, are they just a filler to be full?.. Not a good habit? Thank you in Advance to hear back from you!! ❤😇
Loved you videos 🤝 All are knowledgeable but till now u haven't posted any workout video. I workout in fasted state and i'm curious to know your workout routine.
I find I always want the meat and fat first, then pick at the carbs (tho I usually want some to top things off). And when I was a kid, before "healthy eating" warped us away from our better instincts (and before obesity was more than an occasional oddity), we always ate the crunchy fat off the meat first, then ate the meat, then the potatoes or whatever carbs (with lots of gravy or butter), then the sweets.

Hi , yes does work . If you have apple cider vinegar before also helps ( except the taste of it 🫤 yuk ) ... been following you for a long time , as well as the " glucose goddess " .
I think restaurants serve bread first to make you hungrier. If they started serving a hard-boiled egg first, their sales might drop!
Exactly. Thanks, Olive garden, Texas Roadhouse, & Mexican restaurants. They don't care about your health... They care about profit & happy taste buds
The good news is we don't have to eat it in that order.And we can ask them to bring it out in our order
I am south Indian vegetarian & 67. Diabetic since 17 years. I started 16 to 18hr fasting by skipping my break fast. Today is my fifth month. My blood sugar reduced to 145 from 250. And my tablets reduced to half. These readings are without any exercises. Some times my morning and afternoon sugar has touched to 60. And if i start my exercise and 24 hr fasting I may discontinue my tablets. My gratitude to Dr. Jasonfung. I always remember your help. I welcome your kind suggestions to reverse my insulin resistance. Thank you.
Adding 24-72 hour fasting does help much more, as it's a miracle for Autophagy (Nobel Prize). It is easier if you set your mind to it and plan in advance and keep discipline. Dr. Brad Stanfield (UA-cam) explained how he does it and why, Dr David Sinclair, so many studies.
Awesome to hear mate! Keep spreading the knowledge! And i hope your health gets better and better my friend 💪
Vegetarian populations seem to have a high rate of diabetes. Glad you improved your numbers!
@@danielmccarthyy This. Because every vegetarian food is too carb heavy unless one is very, very careful.
@@simplehealthyliving4681 yes exactly. A piece of meat and veg suits me fine 🙂
Dr Fung, please take this message to middle and especially high schools. This should be Health 101.
I'll be eating my carbs last starting tomorrow. Thank you.
Update?
I'm a type 1 diabetic and recently came across this information. I started eating low-carb veggies and protein 1st. This has made a significant difference. If I want carbs, I eat them last. My bloodsugars are stable. Wish I knew this 20 years ago.
Dr. JASON FUNG is the best!!!!
Thank you Jason, I believe your message has saved my life. First watched you 3 years ago before virus and started immediately IF/Carnivore. I was a train wreck 3 blood pressure pills weight 235. Now steady 160. Now pressure under control with no pills where before it was not. It was very difficult for the first month but gradually got easier. Had to fire 2 doctors (?).
Know this is long and you probably won't read but thank you for giving me more time with my 3 grandkids.
That’s wonderful! Enjoy the babies.
@B F. I think the agency I gained through Ketovore 0mad losing 60lbs and bp under control gave me the courage to say to 3 MDs, 1 PA thank you but no thank you. Pills are ok but NOT the only therapy.
Thanks! Down to 160 is awesome!
@Gary Bednarz 🎯💯✔️
Please check into the minerals ( Potassium, Magnesium, Chromium, etc ) to help reduce insulin resistance. Pima Indians...check out their solution to their big diabetes problem. I watch Dr. Eric Berg here on UA-cam...check his videos out. God bless you l. 🕊️😇❤️🙏
Very important research here for Asian folks who ‘must’ eat carbs like rice, noodles, dumplings and steamed buns! I’ve heard salad before fat and protein is also a good idea.
Great video! I have always had my son eat his protein and fat first, because he has a very limited appetite, and I want these building blocks in his body before he feels full. His carbs and any treats follow, and these are easier to eat so require less appetite. After reading your book a couple years ago, I felt even better about this decision. I talked with him about the effects of sugar on the body, so he understands why we put the building blocks in our body first, and his teacher spontaneously reported that he always eats his main dish I pack for him in school before his sides. I am so joyful to know he continuously applies this, even on his own.
Great job mom 😀
You're a good parent. I wish my parents were more informed about this. They basically raised me on carb heavy meals as a child which always left me hungry and wanting more sugar no matter how much i ate. To this day, as an adult, i find it hard to shake off the sugar addiction but ive found IF and protein rich meals do help a lot.
Very intriguing. What country are you from? Thanks
So it's low carbs with carbs last food order . This fine tunes further the low carb approach . Thank you to the power of infinity , Jason .
2 months ago, I read your book and started clean fasting... GAME CHANGER. I am 33 years old and weight less than I did as a teenager. 15 pounds that I could never lose vanished. Not counting calories. Not pushing myself in exhausting HIIT workouts 2 hours/day. And I feel so much happier and more peaceful. I eat intuitively now and I always want to eat veggies in oil or butter and fermented veggies after my prolonged fasts. My body CRAVES it. I still have cognitive dissonance about the fact that I am eating so much more fat and losing so much fat, but I hope I can wrap my head around it soon! TY for all you do! *^_^*
eating fat burns fat. vinegar too
What do you have for breakfast?
HIIT workouts shouldn't last longer than 15-20 minutes. Kick up the intensity if you're able to go more than 20 minutes.
@@LTPottenger Not if you're taking in too many carbs with it...
@@Hertz2laugh ...and not if you are eating bad fats (seed oils)
Yesterday, I had a tiny bit of pasta with some chicken and my blood sugar shot up to 160. Then, for dinner, I had a salad first and then I had 2 slices of pizza after the salad. My blood sugar only went up to 111. It didn’t spike so high cause I had the salad first! I was so happy to see that. Eating in this order really does make a big difference.
Salad will have no effect as leaves do not blunt the insulin release from the starchy carbs. Meat first then carbs last !
@@baz9653 False. The fiber from the vegetables will coat the inside of the intestines and prevent the glucose spike from happening. There are studies on this. Look up Jessie Inchauspé. She speaks all about this. She’s a scientist that specializes in metabolic health. You can find her videos on UA-cam having interviews with Dr Mark Hyman and other functional medicine doctors. She is also on Instagram. Also, having the salad first obviously gave me an excellent glucose reading despite eating pizza. I believe my own eyes. You don’t even need the protein. Eating fiber before the carbs is enough to blunt glucose. I drizzled olive oil on my salad, so I had the healthy fats there, as well.
But it looks like you’re a body builder and body builders don’t believe in eating vegetables. So it’s typical that you would say something like that. Stop giving false information!
do some 72 h fasts and your blood sugar problem will benefit dramatically
The pasta breaks down easier/quicker than the pizza crust.... I would recommend a lot less carbohydrates in your diet the only purpose they serve is to raise glucose and insulin
@@Paul-hl5ls I don’t eat much carbs. This was only for experimentation purposes. And still, you have to admit that was a very good glucose reading after eating pizza.
My father used to work in a restaurant where there are always japanese tourists eating and he noticed that they eat their meats first and their rice and beer last and he always notice that they are lean despite drinking beer and it's also common knowledge how incredible the longevity of most japanese people despite their rice prominent diet, so now I understand due to the recent studies and also I stumbled upon Jessie Inchauspe's "hacks" based on research and observations she done while wearing continuous glucose monitors that it actually indeed helps in preventing insulin spikes, I hope this knowledge spreads more, you dont even have to change your diet drastically, just have to change the order of your food and it helps a lot with preventing the long term dangers of glucose spikes, thank you Dr. Jason Fung and the rest of the health community for spreading this information for people trying to better their health, bless you people.
they're often fat in USA so it is largely how they eat, most likely.
rice doesn't taste good on its own so Japanese cuisine has a lot of side dishes that you eat with the rice. the difference is that Japanese food portions are tiny, especially compared with US portions. also, Japanese naturally eat a lot of seafood and veg and sometimes meat.
they are a lean people and they are one of the longest living on the planet too.
Yes in Japan they have rice and miso at end daughter spends lots of time in Japan
@@jennymclean2323 and the end of their meal?
This is the opposite of what Dr Fung is saying.
Jason Fung would be pharmaceutical companies' number 1 enemy. I hope the msg spread through the world faster enough so people realised the benefit of fasting, this will solve a lot of health issues and world food shortage issues. Keep up the good work ! love every videos
Fantastic, thank you!!!
I honestly get TIRED of hearing keto everything. In my job and life demands, I do not always have the ability to strictly control my diet or what food I can access...and a physically demanding job out in the field. In other words, I often have to eat anything I can get my hands on.
This is really helpful! Thank you for keeping in mind that not everyone is die hard "anti-carb" or "zero.carb" or full keto control.
Keto isn’t sustainable for the majority anyway.
@@Blackandwhitecat-u9v agreed, unless there's a major change in the type of food served everywhere
I'm so with you on the over abundance of the keto message. It has almost driven me from this way of life, thinking it isn't for me. I also appreciate this message.
Keto is overrated. Long term its catabolic. You need carbs, just healthy carbs, not processed junk. Just eat real food healthy food avoid processed, and fast often. Keep it simple
Yep I rebound from keto it's a double edge, it gives your result but by the time you eat carbs your gonna get fatter than last time.
Wow this is great information Dr Fung. Front load with proteins, vegetables, and healthy fats first then eat carbs only if you are still hungry. Thank you so much for helping us improve our health.
Thanks to doctors like you, I was able to figure out what was wrong with me and fix it before it got worse and turned into diabetes. I was able to get rid of my high blood pressure by doing what you and a couple of other health and medical experts on UA-cam told me to do. My doctor only cared about giving me medicine and never tried to figure out or address the root cause. I don't know how to say thank you. Thank you just isn't enough.
I tried this today and it worked. I will eat protein and fat before carbs now at every meal. It helped me to avoid a sugar spike. It let me get my hunger under better control. This is a tip for life. I am combining it with intermittent fasting and, of course keeping the carbs as low as possible. Preceding carbs with protein/fat is a very significant, tool in the food wrangler toolbox. Thanks, Dr. Jason Fong.
As Child I Was Taught To Eat My Salad First, Then The Vegetables On My Plate, Then The Meat. Thank You, Dr. Fung, You Give Us Such Clarity.
I was taught the same way. My parents would make me eat my vegetables first before eating meat and bread.
I'm sure it would taste much better if you ate it all together haha. Eating salad on its own, followed by vegetables, and then the meat last?

Dr Jason, your videos have really helped me follow IF more efficiently and I could convince my family to do thst as well. My husband’s blood pressure pill was stopped in 6 months and my father’s (72 years) diabetes and blood pressure pills came down to half and his need for insulin stopped, his kidney function and blood creatinine levels showed kidney recovery whereas doctors had told that it’s irreversible. It’s nothing but miracle. Although I lost about 10 kgs of weight, I’m unable to see any changes in my blood pressure and I was hoping if you had any guidance for me. I’m doing IF and really want to come off of my bp pills. I’m 39 years old. Many thanks.
Another great video. Thank you so much Jason.
Thank you for this simple “hack” in your eating. I have an air fryer and my first meal is breakfast. I always break my fast with a protein. A piece of fish or a chicken thigh or beef 4 ounces max air fried. Combines some of the following garlic or asparagus, Brussels sprouts, carrots or cauliflower or garlic . All air fried in either olive oil or avocado oil. No carbohydrates never checked the weight loss but tightened up my belt to the last hole. Of course I fast 16/8. Goes without saying being on this channel.
How exactly does one do "16/8"?
@@sl4983 You eat for a period of 8 hours in a day and eat nothing the other 16, but can drink water. For example, you could fast from 6 PM to 10 AM and eat from 10 Am to 6PM. That would be 16 hours fasting and 8 hours eating or 16/8

Thank you very much Dr Fung.
I did this just a few days ago when my dtr brought home cookies from work-she’s a mixer at Crumbl. She knows not to bring them home often because I can resist everything but temptation.... I did save half of a lemon blackberry cookie to have after my one meal for the day which I ate in the following order; hamburger casserole, small serving of roasted veggie combination-cauliflower/broccoli/green bean and mushroom; cultured whole milk cottage cheese with a few strawberries, followed by my half of a cookie. Not only didn’t blood sugar rise afterward, it went down as it normally does after a meal of fats. Of course it isn’t advisable to do this often but for occasional use it actually does work.
Thanks you Dr Fung for another life saving advice 🙏🙏
Thank you Dr. Fung, just a small note, the study at 3:48 requires at least a break of 10 minutes after eating the first item , so if you eat vegetables first , make sure to eat it before 10 minutes of starting with the rest of the meal , I think it is very easy to incorporate this into our lives even if you don't have salad just eat whatever whole vegetables you have .
That was helpful thank you
Excellent point, they waited 10 minutes
Brilliant video. I weight train and do 16/8 I'm 49. Brilliant video.
I’ve heard it said frequently to focus on your protein and your fat when you’re creating your meal and eating your meal. So that doesn’t leave much room for carbohydrates and they could be put off to the end. This makes so much sense. I’ve been trying to observe this since the new year. It’s going pretty well!
I love how just one of your short videos can give me life-changing information..better information than my own doctor can give me like, ever!!
Thanks Doctor.
I've been doing this for years. Good to know it actually makes a difference.
Dear Dr Fung
Your podcasts are gems, your books treasure troves. I hope to see the day your material finds its way into schools, recognized for its tremendous educational value. Thank you for sharing so passionately. I love reading some of the comments... only positive and uplifting! You are touching and changing so many lives for the better, including mine and my family's. Sending you blessings.
Oh man, I felt this intuitively, but glad there are studies substantiating this.
Dear Mr Fung, I had a few trips to Japan early 90s and had dinners at small eatery where they served prawns and vegetable tempuras and fish in a particular order. Being Asian I had expected a bowl of rice to go with whatever was served. Much to my surprise a small bowl of rice was served last when all the good stuff was eaten. I do not know the science behind the japanese way of eating rice until your explanation why it is good to do so. Fully understood..
Interesting. I've noticed over the years, that always eating a small salad or veggie soup as a starter would help keep my weight in check. I attributed this mainly to 'filling' up on low calorie food first. But maybe blunting my blood sugar response to the main dish played a role, too.
If you had a salad dressing containing vinegar that would have done it.
@@TheCompleteGuitarist
Not usually. I know, apple cider vinegar especially is very healthy...but I do not really enjoy acidic salad dressings. I prefer something yoghurt based.
All that matters is CALORIES. Blood sugar/insulin levels have nothing to do with weight gain.

Yes, as I definitely live bread.🤣
Thanks!
Thanks so much!
Better still, consider (1) Apple Cider Vinegar first; (2) Then eat protein & fat; (3) Eat slowly, e.g., talking to someone...; (4) Eat only 20 gm of carbs or less; (5) Light exercise, e.g., walking 30 mins after eating... (6) Drink more water, e.g., green tea... (7) Include Probiotics daily, e.g., kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi......

Sharing your knowledge is so valuable to many🙏
I have started to do this and noticed it makes a big difference. I really enjoy your content.
A physician that thinks with his own brain. I love it. Of course... when simple carbs mix with other macronutrients, in the stomach, it slows down the 'release' of carbs into blood. I had thought this and you confirmed it. Thank you for understanding and sharing mechanisms of action.
I love this guy, so informative.
Thanks! Excellent presentation !!! I look forward to testing it out when I get my next CGM, as I do eat some starches with my evening meal…for now anyways!
In my experience it really works, as a child when we ate our meal we were not allowed to consume rice before meat, I was thinking back then there is no logic to consume the carbs in the end of the meal but now I know.😁😊😁 Thank you for answering my childhood question.
Your little story is actually so beautiful. I remember myself being young and insanely curious about everything, beautiful memories!
Same here! My parents didn’t want me to eat the rice first because I would fill up on it 🤷🏼♂️
And don't forget to try out fasting, too!
Some of the many benefits of fasting on the immune system, blood pressure, blood sugar and anti-aging, all backed up by clinical data:
Thymus stem cells are regenerated, which suppresses aging and renews the immune system.
Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion of bacteria and viruses by the immune system.
Blood pressure is quickly and dramatically lowered, which is very important for a good outcome with the current pandemic.
Fasting increases nitric oxide, which has manifold postive effects like reducing arterial plaque.
Weight loss from fasting only loses10% lean tissue and 90% fat compared to the typical 25% lean tissue and 75% fat lost when calorically restricting for long periods.
Blood clotting is reduced and blood clots and arterial plaque are reabsorbed into the body.
Vitamin D plasma levels are increased, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy!
Blood sugar and insulin are lowered, allowing white blood cells to move more freely throughout the body and do their job. Ideal blood sugar is around 80. Some viruses activate glycolosis (the release of sugar in the body) and clinically it has been shown that decreasing glucose metabolism in the body weakens the influenza virus.
It's absolutely fine for cortisol to be high while fasting, because it produces sugar from fat instead of lean tissue ua-cam.com/video/giEDadzoErs/v-deo.html
The hormone Leptin is an immunomodulator that keeps the body from attacking itself and obesity causes leptin resistance. Fasting very quickly reduces leptin resistance and leptin levels and one day of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half and gets your immune system working properly again!
When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell which are used to produce organelles and proteins. This means the mechanisms needed by viruses to replicate are by and large unavailable when you are in a deeply fasted state.
It stimulates the AMPK complex and activates autophagy. Autophagy (literally self eating) will cause cells to recycle foreign matter such as viruses and kill cancerous and senescent cells. AMPK does many helpful things in the body including activating the body's antioxidant defenses.
Does fasting burn muscle? In most cases no! ua-cam.com/video/teQIaU6wp2o/v-deo.html
Fasting can make you gain muscle faster: ua-cam.com/video/5RM8GRzsIIg/v-deo.html
Deep ketosis virtually eliminates chronic inflammation in the body. This can offset the life threatening symptoms of viral pneumonia which effectively kills you through inflammation. This also creates BHB ketones in your body, which also help your immune system and anti-oxidative system, especially in the brain. Ketones also provide an additional energy source during infection, which is critical when trying to fight off a bug. In fact you can have as much as three times the total energy available in your blood when you are in deep ketosis, or even more.
It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency and thereby making cells better able to fight off infection. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism and cancer prevention!
Fasts from 36-96 h actually INCREASE metabolic rate! ua-cam.com/video/BeC_gIR2Z14/v-deo.html
Your body releases interferon which is also triggered by the body during viral attacks to shut down the replication ability of the surrounding cells and stop infections.
After 72 hours or more fasted, your body actually recycles large numbers of immune bodies and creates new ones, rejuvenating your entire system.
When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells. This kills these cells off completely. Senescent cells are responsible for the effects of aging and are the root cause of the development of cancer. If it were possible to destroy them all it would completely stop aging and cancer. That is not possible but fasting can help limit these effects by killing off many of the affected cells and limiting the future effects of aging.
Fasting also releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth, helping a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers.
In fact, the biochemical precursor to BDNF is beta-hydroxybutyrate, which is the same ketone the body produces to nourish the brain while fasting.
Autophagy induced by fasting even helps hair regrow.
What breaks a fast? ua-cam.com/video/7aRLsCpxy3o/v-deo.html
Dieters losing weight through intermittent fasting show greater reduction in waist size and increase in insulin sensitivity for the same weight lost and alternate day fasters were shown to lose fat while gaining muscle at the same time over a six month period.
Fasting has been shown to increase bone marrow volume by 10% and levels of carnosine in the body in as little as a few weeks.
Fasts of several days will not affect short term female fertility and may increase long term fertility especially in women with PCOS.
Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level.
Eating one meal a day can bring most of these benefits to a lesser degree, and adding a few entire days off from eating per week will have even more effect especially when starting to feel poorly.
Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia.
Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. Those with Addison's disease may also be unable to fast without liberal use of exogenous ketones, depending on severity. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness then simply break the fast and seek advice.

This list compiled over months of research by the user known as Pottenger's Human on youtube but feel free to copy and paste this anywhere you like, no accreditation needed!
@@LTPottenger You posted this as a response to someone else's comment. You should post it as its own comment so that more people see it. And then repost it and then repost it again. You spent a lot of time compiling important information and more people should see it and have it accessible. Perhaps create a channel also.
Do you have any suggestions for getting to where I can can comfortably fast for longer periods? I do 18-20 hours easily but it want coffee with heavy cream in the morning. I find that I get very hungry about 20 hours into a fast. Broth or coffee with cream helps but if I'm doing it for autophagy they negate it. No nutrients at all for autophagy. Which exogenous ketones do you recommend?
Great work, Pottenger's Human, compiling this list and summarizing it.
We eat everything together.
A taste of and a taste of that
Maybe that's why we had a flab.
We did eat a lot and we ate in moderation.
I was tall and slim. Fast metabolism.
But when I got in my 50's my metabolism slowed down.
Mom didn't make desserts.
She didn't cook breakfast so it was like I.F.
10:30 am on the dot
Rice veg and meat
5:00pm
Rice veg meat
Then next meal at 10:30 am
It was her daily routine.
Love you Dt. fung...so much great info always, thanks for all you do
Humble doctor, he even left in his mistake lol 😂
I have been eating this way most of my adult life and it works, its just the first time I see a video on this, quite often people
would ask me why I eat this way and I would tell them it makes me feel better, I have been weight lifting for almost
50 years and I believe this is the most efficient way to eat and keep making gains.
Always enjoy and learn so much . I’ve never struggle with weight or any health conditions I watch and listen to your channel for preventive care. Thank you for always sharing and giving all of us the best information you possibly can so we as your listeners can learn and apply thank you
Sandi, I really admire you! The great majority of people don't act until they have already developed problems. You are one of that very small percentage of people who prevent problems so that they don't need to cure them. God bless you! By the way, you have a very beautiful smile!
@@williambunter3311 many blessings to
You ….. cheers to good health !
Another very informative and useful talk . On UA-cam I recently found someone who had a problem with oats ( unrefined ) causing extreme blood sugar spiking (certainly a problem I had and gave up eating oats as a consequence ) . He experienced by eating a boiled egg before eating the oats and his blood sugar hardly spiked at all !
Wow that's interesting...I miss oats 😢so I might try this
@@neardeathexperience1111 I will have a look for the video again - it wasn't one of the regular ones I watch . I was baffled by the Oats thing because they were meant to have a high satiety rating . They certainly didn't for me - crikey when I was eating one bowl I would already be thinking about the next one . I am not type 2 but probably strayed into pre type 2 territory, but I started looking at diabetic forums and so many people were complaining that oats were spiking their blood sugar and giving them gout etc . Do I stopped eating them as part of my low carb journey . Pastor Dennis ( beat diabetes ) did an experiment where he compared oats to a very typical high sugar breakfast cereal . The sugary cereal spiked his blood sugar less than the oats !!! I might add that I was eating the most unrefined type oats . You would expect those refined quick cook oats to be quickly absorbed ✌️.
@@michaeldillon3113 wowwwww really? Yet I do know people who don't spike after eating oats at all ....I think it's trial and error to be honest now and eat to the meter kinda way of life. I'm going to mix steel cut oats with almond flour and flaxseed and then test after my work outs.
@@neardeathexperience1111 Yes I think there are some general rules about healthy eating but there is a big spectrum of low carb to carnivore and individuals have to try and find their best place on it . I am probably like Dr Ken berry and can barely tolerate carbs at all - hence a high wholegrain vegetarian diet nearly killed .me . I had particularly dramatic health improvements when I gave up bread - initially for Lent , but ultimately pretty much for good thus far . Good luck on your own journey ✌️.
@@michaeldillon3113 aw yeah I think I will test my bloods and carbs with what I can tolerate and not ....am about to make my own keto style "bread" to go with my soup I've made today for the next two days. I think with some more knowledge and wisdom I can do this 😊👍🙏 good luck on your journey also and thank you so so much for the amazing information you've shared
I always appreciate Dr. Jason's willingness to share his insight to reverse the diabetes without any reward. I had benefited it myself, especially where the medical world is only interested in our pocket instead of our health.

Thanks alot for inspiring me, not just for your great explanations but the manner which you go about your work is inspiring in itself.
Can you tell me the title of the book please?
@@Dk-yz8dn the obesity code
Thank you Dr Fung, I have been a follower for 4 years and have 4 of your books. This is a Great hack! I will religiously follow it from now on. I have noticed That sometimes my blood sugar will spike and sometimes it will stay totally flat with the same meals. I thought maybe it had something to do with time of day or weather I exercised that day, but I couldn’t figure it out. It just seemed random. I just tried to reduce carbs as much as possible, but I love white rice, so it was difficult. Now I will have a salad with vinegar and oil or anti-pasta (meats, olives, cheeses) first. I love those foods, so it’s easy to do. Then I will eat my rice and main meal. Thank you for all that you do!
Same !
Wow Dr Fung. That's amazing.
This makes sense as a child of the 60's we always had to eat our main first or else we had no pudding and there was a lot less obesity back then. Good point about the bread when going out for a meal I have not ate bread now for 8 months and am down 80lbs.
I have not eaten bread for over five years. Though I may have had more weight loss in the numbers game, I applaud you for the excesses that you have gotten off... 👍
ua-cam.com/video/n5diMImYIIA/v-deo.html
Thank you
If you don't eat your meat you can't have any pudding... How can you have any pudding if you dont eat your meat!
@@userac-xpg We would be friends 😉
It si perfect if first you eat the fibers, the salad. After the meat and after the carbs. There is a book where I found this, writtn by Jessie Inchauspe, glucose revolution
Great advice,
as an Italian in my meals I usually have at first a carbo dish (such as pasta, rice, etc..) and after the proteic food with some vegetables.
I've often wondered if a reversed dish sequence could affect the post prandial blood GI; here I get the answer.
The goal I'm pursuing is to avoid the post prandial drop of focus which could happen with such meals and is due to the digestive effort and the GI spike.
I just made things simple enough for me to follow, so as to not allow the forever craving that I use to have when eating carbohydrates of the icky kind. I went carnivore.
You really need to dump or at least greatly reduce your consumption of pasta and rice for optimum health! I respect your Italian heritage!
Really, you may be the first Italian that I came across that eats carbs first!!! I'm from very Italian part of NJ and my extended family and friends are all Italians. They ALWAYS start meals w/h salads or proteins w/ fats (muscles, clams, cold cuts and cheese). Only then they move to carby main course like pasta. They even eat salads before having pizza. Most are in great shape!!! Based on what I've seen, this video makes total sense why Italians stay lean despite carb heavy diet...I was always so jealous, now I now their secret ))))
Growing up with Italians in Australia i can very well remember it was often a soup first followed by a pasta dish then the main course of fish , chicken or beef..
Now working in Italy I observe a similar pattern..
Of course it's not say that on some regions it could be different but generally throughout this was my own experience..
Pasta almost never eaten as a main course..
Thanks!
When Dr Fung is on
Insulin: Off
Glucose: Off
Glucagon: on
Endorphins:on
You are the most valuable treasure of the planet Earth at least for me, a fountain of eternal joy. Lots of Love from continent Asia!!!!!
Bedankt
This is extremely interesting, thank you so much for your time and effort to share it with us...
Thank YOU, Dr. Jason Fung, for giving us informative information. You youtube videos have helped millions of lives!!! You are truly a great doctor who is using your knowlege to save and improve lives of people all over the whole! THANKSSSSSS!
My trainer told me never eat a carb without a protein....like with a snack..
I do eat my protein first...usually to full to eat carbs. I have lost & maintained 80lbs of fat loss over 2 yrs doing IF along with omad/2mad...depending on my workout schedule.
Thank you.
As always, very helpful and interesting Dr Fung. Through following your guidelines, I have been able to lose 25 kg so far when nothing else had ever worked for me long term before. Whilst I still have a long way to go with my weight loss, I still would have been at square one if my GP hadnt suggested you to me and I am very grateful to you both. Not only have I managed to lose the weight but I wake up with so much more energy and I am active in a way that I hadnt been for years. So from the bottom of my heart, Thank you so much and please keep up the great work you do.
Would you like to share what you did to lose your weight?!! Thanks
@@lifesart1. my husband and I do time restricted eating (16:8) and try to lower our carbohydrate intake. If you havent tried it, I suggest you give it a go, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and was on medication and had had high blood pressure for years, was on tablets for diabetes and am no longer, was on three different blood pressure medications without the blood pressure budging and am now on 2 tablets for it on my way to decrease to 1 😀 was also considering obesity surgery but now no longer need it. I guess the main thing is that I am not frightened that I am going to be in an early grave anymore and that my kids will hopefully have me around a lot longer.Good luck to you and hope it works as well for you as for us 💜
this video is so important for me!!!This is a gamechanger 👍 👏Thanks ,Dr.Fung ❤
Thank you to the power of infinity , Jason .
When I was raising my kids and it was always fast food because Mom & Dad BOTH worked...fast food burgers & fries...fast food pasta and unlimited breadsticks were our go-to meals. ALWAYS had the bread, loads and loads of bread. Which is why I found your channel and other channels like yours: Iʻm pretty sure I was diabetic before going on keto, dropping all grains and all sugars. Now I eat NO grain-based carbs, and very few carby vegetables. This "sequencing" idea makes total sense to me.
For some reason, my kids always are their hamberger first & fries last
He gets straight to the point.
Very informative, thank you . I do not have much of carbs at home but it is great to know when I eat out and there is no way to avoid food that includes carbs.
Yes there are tons of ways to limit or avoid carbs while eating out. Salads, meats, vegetables that aren’t loaded with sauces and aren’t normally cooked with added sugar, like asparagus, Brussel sprouts, greens etc. you can’t avoid 100% carbs even at home due to nearly 100% of real foods will have at least a trace of carbs. Choose wisely.
For sure I will start tonight. Thanks Dr. Fung .I know it will work. Your advice has always worked for so many
people I know. Your IF and OMAD works like a charm. Love your videos
Dr. Fung,
Can you speak about how eating rice with beans is a complete protein and if eating them together doesn't spike your insulin? Or does it? Also white rice or brown...which is better? I'm trying to incorporate more plant based eating and would love to hear what you have to say about it. I appreciate you and watch your videos everyday. Thank you for all you do!
Thanks Dr. Fung.
I am getting better and better as time goes on. "Truthfulness is the best medicine".
I have a question for Jason, My husband and I have been doing the Keto and intermittent diet for over 5 years, but recent two years he had an annual checked up and told by DR. that his triglyceride cholesterol , high blood pressure and glucose are pretty high and got to take some medications. what? we didn’t eat the regular sugar and only put fewer berries in the home made green drink every day ). But there’s few good things also happened to us too.1. This diet has increased our immune system ( we haven’t had any cold or flu since this diet)2. no bloating after every meal. So now I don’t know what to do with this diet ! continue or stop. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks
Dr. Berry has a channel on here, he is an MD keto specialist out of Tennessee. He talks about this as well. Als look into the amounts and types of fats you're eating.
I’ll second the referral to Dr. Berry.
@@LadyMaverick823 ， we only use a good high quality’s olive oil for salad and avocado oil for cooking that is. Also we only have one meal a day.
@@MSJ12333 Use animal fats like tallow instead of oils for cooking.
You also mention a green drink, what's in that?
You may be eating too much protein and not enough fat, look up gluconeogenesis where the body makes it's own glucose (so you don't have to eat sugar to have high blood sugar).
Lastly, the high blood pressure may be related to insufficient or too much salt, depending on your physiology. Or, it could be from something like gum disease!
The diet may just needs tweaking a bit. Good luck.
You would need to know the ratio of things, such as what *type* of LDL, if it's large particle it should be fine, but small particle sLDL is what to watch for. Also how high is HDL? A lot of people use triglycerides/ HDL to see if they are actually in a problem zone
I’m definitely going to try to eat this way. The fasting has dropped my blood sugar tremendously though. I only eat 3-4 days a week now. Thanks Dr. Fung.
Very interesting! I haven’t heard of this before! Thank you Dr Fung💜
I agree with Dr Fung... Infact if you want to start your fasting make sure you eat your catbs before fastings
thank you Dr Fung
Phenomenal information!
Great video - thank you, Jason. I've always instinctively done this, and now I know why!
Thanks Jason because of your guidelines I feel better healthier and I stay in shape! With inflation it’s the best time to eat less and smarter and loose weight too many obesity
Thank you, Dr Fung. Great content, as always, I can use to help me on my healthy journey. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
As a child I was never overweight. I also devoured the wonderful meats my mom cooked first, being coerced into eating the veggies before I could leave the table. Perhaps that, along with the fact that we didn't snack, was a big factor.
Italians have long known to eat the "heavy" stuff first (meat, cheese) and salad last...the exact opposite of USA.
My family is from Sicily, ditto. My husband whose family was from Poland learned to do the same after joining the family. Always made me smile.
tell me how u eat ur pizza and pasta
Not true! I’m full blood Italian. Go to Olive Garden and tell me how you get served!
vegetable first, then protein and fat, lastly carbs.
check out the glucose goddess. she has scientific data on food order. She is a scientist, not a doctor.
@@usersoxllabu You don't eat Pizza or Pasta until never, especially if you don't want to turn Diabetic. You finished Main Protein and Fat and non starchy veggies (that is SALAD most often). Then wait 10 min and eat carbs remaining 1/4 of your plate (of course if you want to stay healthy). In Italy they serve both Pizza and large pasta cheap things to American tourists, they don't eat that often themselves. You choose quality of what you eat and what you should eat less of (very improper for Heart Attack and Brain Strokes and Diabetes Pizza and Pasta should be eaten maybe once a month).
ive been doing this for years...it does help me. im type 2
There was a book by Michel Montignac “Eat Yourself Slim” that I read many years ago. He explained about carbs and why the French don’t get fat eating them. It’s the same principle that Dr. Fung is speaking of.
Perhaps some people who eat carbs simply don't over consume food in general. I mean shock what a concept.
That probably goes hand in hand, I mean the kind of food and eating less.
I'm swiss, eating quite similar to our french neighbors, we don't skimp on butter, oil, full-fat cheese and so on.
Was in the States many years ago, people around me were shocked about the butter and cheese amounts I've eaten (predicted me heart attack and clogged blood vessels).
Didn't scare me, cause I knew, my ancestors eaten similar and almost without exception, all reached a healthy age over 90 years.
But what struck me, was that everyone around me always seemed hungry and snacking. I've only eaten once or twice a day and felt full and active.
Never breakfast, just a tee or coffee and then, in the morning, body activity does it almost by itself, cause without something in your stomach you feel liftet and weightless.
Well time goes on, more than 30 years have passed since then, I'm still healthy and activ, never had a doctor's appointment.
The same with salt, enough natural sea salt or Himalayan salt (your body will tell you), no refined and certainly no fluorinated salt.
But everybody is different and has to find out what works best for them.
Just something to think about.
@@ireyonmoya that was super helpful thank you
I'm African. I' grew up eating our local dishes which had lots of carbs, yet we were mostly lean and didn't have these diseases. I'm starting to wonder if the issue is more than carbs. I watched a well researched presentation on UA-cam ("Diseases of Civilization). It showed that polyunsaturated fats was the common denominator (culprit). That made a lot of sense to me. I'm for low carb and I do practice it, but now listening to Dr Fung, I'm beginning to feel that perhaps the real enemy is the over-processing (and toxic chemicals) in our food.
Dr jason fung. I m your big fan. You just solved all the problems of my life. I can listen you 24hrs. Love you sir
Love your videos, Dr Fung!
It's interesting that I used to eat my salad first, then sadly, my body said get to the toilettes ! I now - if I eat a salad - eat it after my eggs and meats. Now my body cannae push that veg through! I hope this helps a lot of people!
Be well!
Friendly suggestion: Stop eating salad.
@@erickminor 100% agree ... I now rarely eat much veg. When I do, I don't have any responses anymore (gut fixed).
I appreciate your suggestion! Thank you!
Why are you even eating salad ? It is absolutely pointless with no nutritional value you may as well just go into your garden and start eating the grass 🤦🏻♂️
@@baz9653 I would eat grass, but I don't have enough stomachs ... kidding! You're 100% right! I nary eat salads. I was suggesting to folks who "absolutely must" have their salad to eat it last. Thanks, Baz!
Thank you Jason 💯
Woah! This could be a game chamber for me! I've never lost weight eating omad. Going off sugar screws up my monthly cycle. I'm going to try this right away because I almost always snack on fruit while I cook my main meal.
Lol
And your cycle is that the first day is the heaviest, and the four or five days later your cycle tapers off to not at all?
Omad for a woman in productive age is not the best idea.
@@FeFeronkaMetallica Il agree. Productive aged females need all of the proteins and animal based fats that they can get, to be ready for the reproduction journey, but likewise be ready for the nursing of her baby. Yes, I am saying it here also, baby formula does the baby harm; a loving mother will breast feed always.
@Bok Choy You seem not to be so based... as in, you are emotional in your life narrative. So sad or you and your future. Get over yourself.
Thank you so much Dr Jason Fung for all that you do. I love and appreciate your teachings. I will give this a try to see my outcome. Question: Are side carbs really needed ... (Rice, Potato, Pasta etc..) I know that rice (Purple Rice) is what I eat has some great nutrients in them. So smaller portions like 2 Table Spoon serving should be surfice instead of 8 ounces serving at the end of my meal instead of throughout my meal? How much carbs are actually needed to help the protein and nutrients from the meat, beans and vegetables to help absorb their nutrients? Or are carbs just not really necessary, are they just a filler to be full?.. Not a good habit?
Thank you in Advance to hear back from you!! ❤😇
All good questions. I want to know too. I hope Dr. Fung answers.
I'm from Maryland so love a good crab feast! 😆🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀
Loved you videos 🤝
All are knowledgeable but till now u haven't posted any workout video.
I workout in fasted state and i'm curious to know your workout routine.
Genius! I have been following his advice and it really works.
I find I always want the meat and fat first, then pick at the carbs (tho I usually want some to top things off).
And when I was a kid, before "healthy eating" warped us away from our better instincts (and before obesity was more than an occasional oddity), we always ate the crunchy fat off the meat first, then ate the meat, then the potatoes or whatever carbs (with lots of gravy or butter), then the sweets.
I wish I had known this 10yrs ago. Thanks for posting Mr. Fung!
