Congratulations!!! 💘Keep switching things up!!! As you get closer to goal, the body tries to hold on, especially if you're a female, because we need adequate fat stores for hormonal balance....having cycles & getting pregnant etc. Good Luck & Stay Blessed!!! 💘
This man knows what he is talking about. Intermittent fasting is incredible. I don't eat until 6-8hrs after I wake up every day; the only thing I consume during this window is black coffee. I am ruthless with limiting carbohydrate intake during meals and mainly only eat meat and vegetables. I look and feel good every day.
I'm trying to increase my IF time to 18/6. Today, as I write this, I only have one more hour to go and I feel great! I almost feel like I could go 20 hrs!
I’m on my 7th day water fast and I’ve lost 16 pounds so far I’m trying to go for 10 day water fast or 14 day water fast , depending on my body , I’m just listening to my body and praying to God to give me strength 🙏🏼
Dr. Fung's greatest gift among many is his ability to explain things so well to inspire us to change. The explanation of the Two Compartment system when thinking of weight lost is pure GENIUS. A huge aha moment for me! Thank you for helping us.
Just lost 22 lbs since January 3, 2022. I do intermittent fasting. Understanding insulin spikes taught me a lot. I practiced nursing for 20years and this information isn’t taught at all!!
I am a nurse in a nursing home. Seeing what he’s talking about when he says the more insulin you give the fatter and sicker you get is 100 true. We have seen it on the frontlines.
I never got tired of listening to Dr Fung, he explains everything soo well. Calories in and calories out has made us fat, because it doesn’t last. Why would anyone want to be counting calories every day? Not me.
Great interview! Hi Dr. Fung!! I've learned more from Dr. Fung's books and videos than from any of my face to face doctors. He's easy to understand, honest and believable because he backs it up with science and studies. I'm 58. I've lost 115lbs. so far since November 😲! I'm off my blood pressure meds, my osteoarthritis pain is so much better I'm able to be active again and swimming and my asthma is...gone! I eat one meal a day and do intermittent fasting. I feel so well! Thank you for taking the time for us❤️
Hi Jessica, you are my inspiration, I saw your comments in other channels, also you were so kindly answering all the questions, really gave me a lot of encouragement. I started LCHF 3 weeks ago from 8/16 to 6/18, move to OMAD two days ago, I've lost 12 ponds and my back pain is almost gone, and the pain in my left thumb is much better. Salute to Dr. Fung, and thank you.
@@lindajin1257 Hi Linda Wow! Congratulations 👏! You are doing great... and...It just gets better! Thank you for your kind words. Hope we "meet up" again 😆
Well done J .... it's not difficult is it ....and it turns your life around ...so glad to hear others sharing his ideas ....I am like you a changed person !!! Keith UK x
@Jessica Johnson. Do you know where I could find information on what to eat after a 24 hour fast? I started fasting for a month now. I do a lot of 16/8 , and 20/4 fast. I’m not sure of what to eat. For example I would drink coffee w/ coffee mate after a 20 hour fast. Not sure if that’s safe. What should I eat and drink after 24 hour fast. By the way congratulations in your journey.
Also I concentrate on whole food and shun artificial foods. Only butter and olive oil, fresh fruit and vegetables, steak lamb, pork , chicken, fish, nuts. Not much a sacrifice at all.
I ate healthy for two 2 years but lost nothing Started carnivore, lost 2 kg that I gained the previous week by not eating as usual. Then after that, I started having high insulin issues and fatty liver. Listened to dr Berg who said I need crusifirous veggies. Added that then the pain got better but lost nothing and high blood issues. I was so done and almost lost hope. Then dr Jason Fung said fasting for fatty liver. I went on a thirty day water fast and broke it today on 17 days. I feel a lot better and plan to follow dr Eckberg. I am also going to get my blood work done with my daughter who is a doctor and seem to have started following doctors like dr Peter Attia and others. I also want to get me a keto monitor (haven't done much tests as my last test was a year ago with Gyne who still seem to be in the dark about all the new things and wouldn't put me on estrogen as I still have my ovaries. I believe all these symptoms are because of menopause 😢
Great interview. Thanks to both of you. When I learned about intermittent fasting 4 years ago I luckily stumbled over Dr. Fung's videos. Lost 40 lbs in 3 years without doing exercise and 20 lbs this year while doing moderate exercise 2 times a week. I had lost 10 - 20 lbs many times in my life but every time I gained it back and sometimes even more. Intermittent fasting was the game changer. It makes it so easy to not gain weight again after losing it. Thanks Dr. Fung
I've been doing some sort of fasting for nearly 3 years now and have come to the conclusion that fasting is an exercise in self discipline. During my longer fasts the ones that last over 24 hours I listen to the good doctor cause I think it's cool to take one's health into your own hands.
I love Dr Fung . Thank you for wonderful knowledge and sharing with us all . My IBS got better and better as a result of following and complying with your information. I am 64 yrs of age and I lost an unwanted 16 lbs as a result and almost same weight as I was when I was 17 yrs of age . My ME pains are so much better and I am enjoying this new life post - metamorphosis. With greatest respect .
I have learnt so much from Dr Fung, he is easy to understand and explains everything in great detail backed up by clinical studies. I’ve always been told that I’m failing by different fitness coaches due to not loosing weight and that I must be doing something wrong or not following the diet plan when actually my body was just responding to the lower calories. I’ve come from a background of AN, I was admitted to hospital whereby I gain heaps of fat and weight which made me depressed and revert back to AN but I can honestly say I’ve got into fasting and it’s a sense of freedom. I fast daily and follow a 16/8. I absolutely love listening to Dr Fung he is so knowledgable and I’m truely Thankful to him for sharing his knowledge.
I have started coconut oil and noticed that I am eating less no longer hungry for sweets or carbs I started fasting today had my first day of eating during the window of 10am to 6pm and as of today I have lost 8 lbs about to kick boost this weight lost by starting to fast only liquids come Monday wish me luck let’s see if I can do 5 days of fasting 🙏🏼
53 - and just 6 weeks in, I'm going to hit 20 a pound weight loss in the next 3 days. It took about two weeks to adjust, but once you get used to eating once a day, you won't want to go back.
I've done IF for more than a year now and had lost 14 lbs by October. Even though I still fasted about 17 hours as usual between Halloween and New Years, I ate a lot of holiday junk food and gained 7.5 lbs back which has been very discouraging, but I'm not giving up and am just trying to be more careful with what I eat. I've had a really easy time with the fasting until about 2 weeks ago when I decided I shouldn't eat snacks in the afternoon, but it's been really stressful so I'm going to start having my snack again. It didn't keep me from losing the 14 lbs I lost last year so I hope it doesn't now. I usually go anywhere from 17 to 20 hours a day fasting depending upon whether I'm doing something that keeps my mind engaged so I'm not paying attention to the clock.
Awesome interview Dhru! You’ve done so much to change how I approach my health! The fact that doctors don’t recommend fasting shows how broken the Western medical system is.
I find that avoiding sugars and starch, staying active allows me to eat to satiety and slightly loose weight. I'm 69 with ideal bmi. I'm never hungry and feel I'm eating a little too much or should, but yet I'm OK .
Hi, thanks for the video, very educational. The link to "the fasting method program" leads to an error page. Can you provide the correct link please? Thanks
Just tell the people to eat less often and not less volume...end of ....I don't eat added sugars and starch and its job done ... Often times it's just thirst not hunger and it passes in a few minutes ...I just eat one great healthy meal in a day ...and if I do get hungry I have sugar free Jello ( jelly in UK ) and a drop of double cream with a few raw chopped nuts .....gives you the mental feeling of eating with the mouth movement and the satiety ... but no insulin spike for you to store the body fat... Feeling great on every way ... should have done it years ago!! You're so right .. calories don't mean a thing to me it's where they are from ....and if it's carb based ...like sugar and starch ...if you're going to count any ....count those... Great vid... thanks Keith
I’ve been fasting for over two months and haven’t lost anything.i started fasting 16/8 and I was told it was stressing my body and I should let go over 15 so I’m doing that.im prediabetic and have hipotiroidismo.Im 45 Very frustrating that I can’t loose any weight when I hear wonderful stories of others loosing so much weight, I thought it be happening for me.
How do you figure out how to balance it all for each individual? How do you know how to keep the right amount of nutrients when doing fasting and calorie reduction enough to lose weight? Do you have a book out that helps figure out how to do IF, some 24 hour fasting, calorie reduction and still getting the right nutrients?
Thank you so much for your brilliant gift from God 🙏 Dr Fung are helping so so many people who are know a bit of religion and can pick up what he explains...make sense and practical
Welcome aboard! IF is great! Watch A Healthy Alternative (great testimonies and insight into the mindset of fasting), doctors Jason Fung (has worked with obesity and his patients use fasting to change their lifestyles and mindset), Dr. Pradip Jamnadas (excellent teacher that makes medical care simple and easily understood) and Dr. & Olympian Sten Ekberg (give you the science and why it works) UA-cam channels. For great information on water and hydration lookup Gena Bria. I recently started watching Dy Ann Parham's IF Intermittent Fasting for Today's Aging Woman (nutritionist who talks about getting hormones in check). I am reading the Weigh Down Diet (which is not a diet) by Gwen Shamblin and planning on buying Fast, Feast, Repeat soon. I also pre-ordered Fasting Like A Girl by Dr Mindy Pelz. I saw this trick to help you get to a full fast week. Week 1: no breakfast, Week 2: no breakfast and no lunch, Week 3: no breakfast, no lunch, and eat only half of your normal dinner, Week 4: full water only fast.
Dr. Fung wrote a book titled "The Obesity Code." I'd suggest you read it to get answers to your questions. I checked out a copy from the library and read it this week.
If you eat vegetables that grow about the ground you will be fine. Don't add extra fat, but eat the fat that is with the meat, because it helps your body use the protein. Ref Professor Ben Bikman, who is also worth listening to.
Fasting is NOT a diet. It's a lifestyle change. Fasting is learning to eat less. In America we overdose on food, eating too much and too often. Remember information is the key. From there gleam what works for you and throw out the rest.This is a marathon and a lifestyle change or you will be right back here trying to do a quick fix. Don't beat yourself up for slip ups. Just reset and start again. Detoxing and learning how to live differently isn't easy but well worth it.
If I might add to exercise as it also helps so much with blood sugar and reducing fat. Just started body strength exercises GET Strong’´ kavadlo bros 6 weeks ago and muscles already started growing and blood sugar going down faster now since muscles are using the glycogen.
It would help if we could label with food with "effective absorbed calories". The laws of thermodynamics would still apply there I would think. But I totally that carbs vs protein vs fat are not the same when processed by the body, not to mention the micronutrients.
Speaking of NASA, vacuums, and questioning consensus thought, how can we have gas pressure without a container? How can gas exist adjacent to a vacuum without the gas increasing in entropy and expanding into the vacuum per the 2nd law of thermodynamics? It would be like opening a can of soda without the gas escaping the can. The sky couldn't possibly be a vacuum.
I have a liver and kidney cyst that I keep watch on yearly with check up. It’s a form of your body fighting inflammation issues. From what I came across with Dr. Berg videos
hello, I have a keto + fasting 16/8 for 10 months and I loose weight 5 kilos but suddenly I gain weight 5 kilos in ladt month. I do not have any idea what happened to me. do you have any idea about my problem?
@@bnazem7617 weight gain is not just about food and exercise, it can be related to mental health as well, make sure you do something you enjoy, sleep early and wake up in the morning, feel positive 😀
@@oky9653 Amazing! My personal trainer instructed me to use the whey protein powder. I had no idea how unhealthy protein powders were until I saw this video. I will definitely research where I can buy the collegen. I appreciate you! 🙏
It's still unnecessary. When you lower your caloric intake for long periods of times you lower your metabolic rate so you stop using the calories that you input. That's been proven as far back as covert Bailey doing studies on people in hospitals.
@@denisedecker7330 It doesn’t seem to be true of me. If I eat less than 2000 calories I lose weight. If I eat more I gain. But while the number of calories correlates perfectly with weight, it doesn’t correlate with how hungry I feel.
That's the genius of fasting... You learn what is best for you. I drink my coffee with favored cream but no sugar cause sugar is too sweet for me. I vary my fasting schedule and don't keep up with the windows by only eating when I am hungry. So if I get hungry but can't stop to eat I just extend my fast. If on the other hand I only have 10 minutes to eat then I eat in 10 minutes. Sometimes people get hung up on whether it's a clean or dirty fast but I look at it like this there are all types of fast: clean/dirty, dry/ water, veggie only/meat only, IF, OMAD, ADF and so many eating/fasting windows and no one is the same. Take your time, do your research and find out works best for you and your body. It's all trial and error. Fasting is NOT a diet. It's a lifestyle change. Fasting is learning to eat less. In America we overdose on food, eating too much and too often. Remember information (applied knowledge of what works for you) is the key.

Oh my,I 💯 agree the sistem fail me in many different ways , working 11hour job,2021 I retire my permitted job,due to health issues,.my legs and 30kg obese , only last year while have more time for myself,I search information about intermittent fasting,as I Christain I am used to fasting but hidden sugar, snacking, stressed,not sleeping well, increase weight gain, information is key and I loose 22kg only few months.....
Does anybody know if half a lemon and in your 28 ounce of water triggers insulin or is it diluted enough that I could drink this during fasting and no sugar electrolytes are these things you can drink while fasting?
A friend said that doing intermittent fasting messed up her hormones. I was sort of doing a non-intentional, intermittent fasting, and to be honest I think it contributed to my weight gain. Any thoughts?
I admit I don't do a lot of walking to much violence near to where I stay I can walk round park but across rhe road violence I live in shelter housing with warden I can go out on my own dr flung
Yeah. Sometimes it makes me want to cry. I'm in my later 60's. I struggled all my life dieting & working out but I still developed diabetes and high cholesterol. I suspected a problem with my hormones but they checked and said no. Since May I 've been using the Ketogenic diet with I F. I feel like I was a slave all my life and now I've been freed. I'm very angry I had to wait til now to learn this method exists. I'm angry at all my doctors and the medical profession.
I don't eat red meat but I do eat chicken every now and than. I cut out all sugars and all junk food and I don't snack. I do drink a diet, caffeine free Pepsi one a day and I also eat one apple a day sometime two. I initially I lost 13 lbs but I have plateaued and I'm having trouble loosing any more weight . I have just started fasting OMAD but so far nothing. I have been eating Omar for 3 days, what am I doing wrong, I'm pre diabetic, I'm 74 yrs old I walk 1 hr a day a go to the gym 5x a week. Can you help me so I can lose another 10 lbs???
I can fast but then I have another problem I've got when I sleep I bedwetting problem it something I live with I've been in out hospital with my kidneys
Can someone plz list the fasting secrets??? Did IF/clean eating/ keto/low carb for 2 years and ....only lost weight from starving/skipping meals. Very unpleasant, but what can u do?

@@sofondadavis5028 I finally am trying just every other day for 16 hr fasting. Energy's starting to return.. I'm 70 and it seems most fasting regimens are way too strenuous for me. I love exercise/movement, so I try to max my energy for that.
Give up all, let me emphasize the word ALL, sugars, and processed carbs. High organic fats and very low complex carbs. Feast correctly and fast (16 - 18 hours) until the next meal. It's simple. Stop eating at 7 pm and 18 hours is 1 pm the next day. Easy peasy! But what you eat matters!
Religious fasting had little to do with a health benefit. Now we are learning that the health benefit came as a by product of the religious fast. People fast as a form of self denial to appease the gods. When you go into food self denial you are literally punishing yourself by denying a pleasurable activity , showing your God that you are sorry for your sins. The gods will then give in to your temper tantrum of not eating and appease you with their blessings , of whatever you are requesting of them. Today the science of fasting is bringing all the health benefits to us that we don't need to fast to appease the gods but for our own health and longevity. With this new knowledge of fasting and autophagy , when we fast we become our own god , no disrespect to the true God - Jehovah. And exercise do work all the time to reduce weight. What you need to do is not replace the amount of calories you have expended during the exercise. The body will need to drawn down on this exercise expended calories from its Glycogen stores until it is used up ( say in 4 weeks time ) and then the drawn down on its Fat stores until it is all used up until you achieve your ideal target weight ( depending on your fat stores , it could take a few months to a few years ). When you do exercise and a 500 calories restricted daily DIET plan the weight reduction process will speed up twice as fast. Now we know that your body has to be TRAINED to burn fat. This should take about 2 to 4 weeks of huunger management . And there is now available endless tips how to overcome the 2 to 4 weeks KETO flu. I did it with eating alot of cabbage and tons of cucumber during my fast in the OMAD routine and drank about 4 cups total of teas and coffee to stave off the hunger , until the hunger dissipates naturally. When my blood pressure dropped dramatically by up to 35 points due to the keto flu in period (4 weeks), I did not know about the KETO flu. But when I learnt of it increased my salt intake by salting my 1 lime juice and my 15 ml ACV ( to sweeten it ) in my I cup of each of my additional liquid intake during my fast. Some days I had up to 3 extra salted limes or ACV , depending on the need for my salt to keep my pressure close to 100 ,to not have me scared of it being too low I did all my regular work and 1/2 hour walking exercise easily. After getting into ketosis ,did not need to take salt and the lime and ACV but still drink about 4 cups coffee teas , chocolate during my fasting time , not to stave off hunger but to get my water supply in. After 4th week ,when my pressure stabilized I started doing 1 hour brisk walking and the pounds just disappeared. I would like to disagree with Dr Fung and say that Diet works , Exercise works . And DIET and EXERCISE work even better and faster , at least for me. It can work with the right understanding of the mechanics behind it as so CLEARLY shown in all these Diabetes , Keto ,Weight loss videos. I can attest to it. It's proven both scientifically (thanks to the research and videos from all of our wonderful health and wellness counsellors like Dr Fung and Dhru) and to the mathematics behind the calorie in calorie out balancing equation. Calorie in = calorie expended through metabolism + calorie stored in glycogen and body fat. Calorie in goes into 3 pathways -- metabolism , glycogen , body/ organ fat. So when you start out on the calorie restriction diet all you have to do is to fight the hunger that is calling to top up this deficit of calorie ( calories from sugar ) and give the body time to switch from glucose burning to body fat burning . If you consume more calories than your target calorie restriction , whether from sugar or fat , you will just replenish what you lose and not lose the necessary weight you are aiming for. And it only takes 2 to 4 weeks to get into ketosis. A small sacrifice to pay for a lifetime's benefit. For those serious about weight loss I would say go for both a calorie restriction diet and exercise at one go. It just works. No if and but.
Do you need to restrict carbs for ever to remain at target weight? I stopped keto bc my naturapath told me i need half a cup of complex carbs like quinoa etc… but that made me hungry and eventually i spiralled and regained everything 😔 plus extra stress with covid injections job pressures…
@@olololo9224 You do not need to avoid carbs but to use carbs as the needs arise Carbs are essential and you get enough from your low carb veges like cabbage,cauliflower,and broccoli. Also from resistant rice ( put the cooked rice in the fridge before you use it ) and your occasional bread and root crops. What the 'researchers" are saying is we need some essential carbs and the body can make this from the protein we eat and if you don't eat enough protein the body then break down our muscles to turn it into glucose/carbs. So to be on the safe side you can eat carbs sparingly The aim is to avoid carbs when you need to reduce your weight. Once you get to your target weight you can reintroduce carbs and fats ( cheese , butter etc) in your diet. But you need to monitor your weight because you can easily put on the pounds you have lost. I give myself a 3 pounds allowance for increase in weight ,after this I cut my carbs and fats until I regain my target weight. I enjoy everything - ice cream , 80% dark chocolate, cake ,bread , pastries and root crops but I am aware of my WEIGHT gain. It is a lovely experience to maintain my target weight.
Fasting is healthy, but I’ve never heard of fasting for the specific purpose of health when it comes to religion. There are certain holidays that people fast and ongoing fasting is considered a time of getting closer to and/or hearing more clearly from God. Focusing on God instead of food. And it’s not just food people fast, although that is the primary way. People fast various things from tv and movies, to computer use etc.
I do have stress I know am eating properly it's to many salad s salad twice a week I can't eat salad every day I have stress with people in where I stay as well they laugh at me eating salad everyday dr flung
I have serious doubts about fasting. I did a 7 day water fast . Suffered very much with acid reflux, face and skin has become dull. How can I be sure fasting helped me to get better or worse
Which doctor did you study before starting? Did you build up to it gradually? Were you a processed good junkie? Could it be that you experienced all the malaise of detoxification? Look into carbonated charcoal. Blessings!
Did you have apple cider vinegar or lemon water,, which could have caused acid reflux didn’t you get salt or electrolytes, you could have had loss of electrolytes
Too bad my gallbladder disagrees, even on Ursofalk... not great for the lining of the intestines, too (especially if you already have problems). Overall not a universal tool for every person...
I have lost 110 so far. I have another 100 to go. Love Dr. Fung.
Congratulations!!! 💘Keep switching things up!!! As you get closer to goal, the body tries to hold on, especially if you're a female, because we need adequate fat stores for hormonal balance....having cycles & getting pregnant etc. Good Luck & Stay Blessed!!! 💘

@Jessica Johnson. Do you know where I could find information on what to eat after a 24 hour fast? I started fasting for a month now. I do a lot of 16/8 , and 20/4 fast. I’m not sure of what to eat. For example I would drink coffee w/ coffee mate after a 20 hour fast. Not sure if that’s safe. What should I eat and drink after 24 hour fast. By the way congratulations in your journey.
Also I concentrate on whole food and shun artificial foods. Only butter and olive oil, fresh fruit and vegetables, steak lamb, pork , chicken, fish, nuts. Not much a sacrifice at all.
We are so fortunate to have. Dr. Fungs advice what a great mind.
I ate healthy for two 2 years but lost nothing
Started carnivore, lost 2 kg that I gained the previous week by not eating as usual. Then after that, I started having high insulin issues and fatty liver. Listened to dr Berg who said I need crusifirous veggies. Added that then the pain got better but lost nothing and high blood issues. I was so done and almost lost hope. Then dr Jason Fung said fasting for fatty liver. I went on a thirty day water fast and broke it today on 17 days. I feel a lot better and plan to follow dr Eckberg. I am also going to get my blood work done with my daughter who is a doctor and seem to have started following doctors like dr Peter Attia and others. I also want to get me a keto monitor (haven't done much tests as my last test was a year ago with Gyne who still seem to be in the dark about all the new things and wouldn't put me on estrogen as I still have my ovaries. I believe all these symptoms are because of menopause 😢
I have so much respect for Dr. William Li and Dr. Jason Fung. They are way ahead in their field of science & medicine and care for people's wellbeing.
OMAD works like a dream!
Great interview. Thanks to both of you. When I learned about intermittent fasting 4 years ago I luckily stumbled over Dr. Fung's videos. Lost 40 lbs in 3 years without doing exercise and 20 lbs this year while doing moderate exercise 2 times a week. I had lost 10 - 20 lbs many times in my life but every time I gained it back and sometimes even more. Intermittent fasting was the game changer. It makes it so easy to not gain weight again after losing it. Thanks Dr. Fung
So great that there are still honest and caring and caring doctors like Dr. Fung and Dr. Lee in this wicked world. God bless you both.
Wonderful Dr Jason Fung. God bless you . You are a life saver 👍👍
I've been doing some sort of fasting for nearly 3 years now and have come to the conclusion that fasting is an exercise in self discipline. During my longer fasts the ones that last over 24 hours I listen to the good doctor cause I think it's cool to take one's health into your own hands.
I love Dr Fung . Thank you for wonderful knowledge and sharing with us all .
My IBS got better and better as a result of following and complying with your information. I am 64 yrs of age and I lost an unwanted 16 lbs as a result and almost same weight as I was when I was 17 yrs of age .
My ME pains are so much better and I am enjoying this new life post - metamorphosis.
With greatest respect .
Dr Prue you are doing a great service for people’s awareness
Sorry spelling mistake. Dr Dhru
I lost 22lbs at the age of 60!!!! Intermittent fasting is a POWERFUL HEALTH TOOL!! Not just for weight loss!!
Fantastic
I am doing 24 hour fast but eat what I want for my one meal. Im wondering what I should eat for that meal?
I have learnt so much from Dr Fung, he is easy to understand and explains everything in great detail backed up by clinical studies. I’ve always been told that I’m failing by different fitness coaches due to not loosing weight and that I must be doing something wrong or not following the diet plan when actually my body was just responding to the lower calories. I’ve come from a background of AN, I was admitted to hospital whereby I gain heaps of fat and weight which made me depressed and revert back to AN but I can honestly say I’ve got into fasting and it’s a sense of freedom. I fast daily and follow a 16/8. I absolutely love listening to Dr Fung he is so knowledgable and I’m truely Thankful to him for sharing his knowledge.
I have started coconut oil and noticed that I am eating less no longer hungry for sweets or carbs I started fasting today had my first day of eating during the window of 10am to 6pm and as of today I have lost 8 lbs about to kick boost this weight lost by starting to fast only liquids come Monday wish me luck let’s see if I can do 5 days of fasting 🙏🏼
53 - and just 6 weeks in, I'm going to hit 20 a pound weight loss in the next 3 days. It took about two weeks to adjust, but once you get used to eating once a day, you won't want to go back.
Thanks for your advice Dr Fung, u r really helping me.
I would like to thank you all your trying to do for me dr flung I appreciate it thank you
Dr Jason Fung is the best of the best
I've done IF for more than a year now and had lost 14 lbs by October. Even though I still fasted about 17 hours as usual between Halloween and New Years, I ate a lot of holiday junk food and gained 7.5 lbs back which has been very discouraging, but I'm not giving up and am just trying to be more careful with what I eat.
I've had a really easy time with the fasting until about 2 weeks ago when I decided I shouldn't eat snacks in the afternoon, but it's been really stressful so I'm going to start having my snack again. It didn't keep me from losing the 14 lbs I lost last year so I hope it doesn't now.
I usually go anywhere from 17 to 20 hours a day fasting depending upon whether I'm doing something that keeps my mind engaged so I'm not paying attention to the clock.
Fasting with keto diet is even better. Get rid of the junk
Awesome interview Dhru! You’ve done so much to change how I approach my health! The fact that doctors don’t recommend fasting shows how broken the Western medical system is.
I find that avoiding sugars and starch, staying active allows me to eat to satiety and slightly loose weight. I'm 69 with ideal bmi. I'm never hungry and feel I'm eating a little too much or should, but yet I'm OK .
Such IMPORTANT INFO!! GREAT VIDEO!!
Thank youuuuu Dr Fung…I appreciate you and I truly appreciate your time to enlighten us with your knowledge … keep on teaching us..we love youuuu…
I would really love to see a debate between him and Dr. Layne Norton.
Thanks Dr. FUNG, you are the best.
Pure Motivation 😎✌🏻
Thank you so much amazing..my question , is fasting the same for women and men and particularily senior women!

Hi, thanks for the video, very educational.
The link to "the fasting method program" leads to an error page.
Can you provide the correct link please?
Thanks
Just buy Jason Fung’s books.
I start with a heavy bacon, egg, yogurt fruit breakfast with black coffee.
Just tell the people to eat less often and not less volume...end of ....I don't eat added sugars and starch and its job done ...
Often times it's just thirst not hunger and it passes in a few minutes ...I just eat one great healthy meal in a day ...and if I do get hungry I have sugar free Jello ( jelly in UK ) and a drop of double cream with a few raw chopped nuts .....gives you the mental feeling of eating with the mouth movement and the
satiety ... but no insulin spike for you to store the body fat...
Feeling great on every way ... should have done it years ago!!
You're so right .. calories don't mean a thing to me it's where they are from ....and if it's carb based ...like sugar and starch ...if you're going to count any ....count those...
Great vid... thanks

Sounds like you have a handle on this! Well done!
I’ve been fasting for over two months and haven’t lost anything.i started fasting 16/8 and I was told it was stressing my body and I should let go over 15 so I’m doing that.im prediabetic and have hipotiroidismo.Im 45
Very frustrating that I can’t loose any weight when I hear wonderful stories of others loosing so much weight, I thought it be happening for me.
Check out Dr. Mindy Pelz here on UA-cam - tons of great videos. She's all about fasting, but modifying it for women. Best of luck on your journey!
How do you figure out how to balance it all for each individual? How do you know how to keep the right amount of nutrients when doing fasting and calorie reduction enough to lose weight? Do you have a book out that helps figure out how to do IF, some 24 hour fasting, calorie reduction and still getting the right nutrients?
Thank you so much for your brilliant gift from God 🙏 Dr Fung are helping so so many people who are know a bit of religion and can pick up what he explains...make sense and practical
Big keys for me were learning (1) not to feed a fed stomach and (2) understanding the difference between fasting and not eating.
Welcome aboard! IF is great!
Watch A Healthy Alternative (great testimonies and insight into the mindset of fasting), doctors Jason Fung (has worked with obesity and his patients use fasting to change their lifestyles and mindset), Dr. Pradip Jamnadas (excellent teacher that makes medical care simple and easily understood) and Dr. & Olympian Sten Ekberg (give you the science and why it works) UA-cam channels. For great information on water and hydration lookup Gena Bria. I recently started watching Dy Ann Parham's IF Intermittent Fasting for Today's Aging Woman (nutritionist who talks about getting hormones in check). I am reading the Weigh Down Diet (which is not a diet) by Gwen Shamblin and planning on buying Fast, Feast, Repeat soon. I also pre-ordered Fasting Like A Girl by Dr Mindy Pelz.
I saw this trick to help you get to a full fast week. Week 1: no breakfast, Week 2: no breakfast and no lunch, Week 3: no breakfast, no lunch, and eat only half of your normal dinner, Week 4: full water only fast.
Dr. Fung wrote a book titled "The Obesity Code." I'd suggest you read it to get answers to your questions.
I checked out a copy from the library and read it this week.
Will you please put out a clip of what Dr Fung says at minute 42 I would love to send it to everyone
Omg, just send them this video and TELL them to go to the 42min time stamp.

I am a fat person with diabetes. Can I eat vegetable(fiber) and lean meat instead of meat with fat since they both dont spike insullin? Thank you
If you eat vegetables that grow about the ground you will be fine. Don't add extra fat, but eat the fat that is with the meat, because it helps your body use the protein. Ref Professor Ben Bikman, who is also worth listening to.
thank you so much for video
Dr. Fung , what is you optimal type of diet do you think is the best to basically follow??
Fasting is NOT a diet. It's a lifestyle change. Fasting is learning to eat less. In America we overdose on food, eating too much and too often. Remember information is the key. From there gleam what works for you and throw out the rest.This is a marathon and a lifestyle change or you will be right back here trying to do a quick fix. Don't beat yourself up for slip ups. Just reset and start again. Detoxing and learning how to live differently isn't easy but well worth it.
Wow, really good interview.
So what do we do to lose it and Keep it off???
If I might add to exercise as it also helps so much with blood sugar and reducing fat. Just started body strength exercises GET Strong’´ kavadlo bros 6 weeks ago and muscles already started growing and blood sugar going down faster now since muscles are using the glycogen.
Love u dr Jason fung
It would help if we could label with food with "effective absorbed calories". The laws of thermodynamics would still apply there I would think. But I totally that carbs vs protein vs fat are not the same when processed by the body, not to mention the micronutrients.
How many hours before you go into Autophagy?

Speaking of NASA, vacuums, and questioning consensus thought, how can we have gas pressure without a container? How can gas exist adjacent to a vacuum without the gas increasing in entropy and expanding into the vacuum per the 2nd law of thermodynamics? It would be like opening a can of soda without the gas escaping the can. The sky couldn't possibly be a vacuum.
Anyone have liver cysts? Seem to have acquired them since my last liver scan 2 years ago. Keto and fasting.
I had thyroid cysts. Had surgery last year. Had 1/2 of my thyroid removed. I do OMAD now and it’s working well.
I have a liver and kidney cyst that I keep watch on yearly with check up. It’s a form of your body fighting inflammation issues. From what I came across with Dr. Berg videos
Developed many liver cysts right after two covid vaccine shots.

Calorie counting used to be so much trouble it wasn’t sustainable, but with the new apps it’s not very time consuming.
It's still unnecessary. When you lower your caloric intake for long periods of times you lower your metabolic rate so you stop using the calories that you input. That's been proven as far back as covert Bailey doing studies on people in hospitals.
@@denisedecker7330 I’m sure that’s true of a lot of people, but calorie counting with an app works great for me, both short term and long term.
@@denisedecker7330 It doesn’t seem to be true of me. If I eat less than 2000 calories I lose weight. If I eat more I gain. But while the number of calories correlates perfectly with weight, it doesn’t correlate with how hungry I feel.
That's the genius of fasting... You learn what is best for you. I drink my coffee with favored cream but no sugar cause sugar is too sweet for me. I vary my fasting schedule and don't keep up with the windows by only eating when I am hungry. So if I get hungry but can't stop to eat I just extend my fast. If on the other hand I only have 10 minutes to eat then I eat in 10 minutes.
Sometimes people get hung up on whether it's a clean or dirty fast but I look at it like this there are all types of fast: clean/dirty, dry/ water, veggie only/meat only, IF, OMAD, ADF and so many eating/fasting windows and no one is the same. Take your time, do your research and find out works best for you and your body. It's all trial and error.
Fasting is NOT a diet. It's a lifestyle change. Fasting is learning to eat less. In America we overdose on food, eating too much and too often. Remember information (applied knowledge of what works for you) is the key. From there gleam what helps you reach your goals and throw out the rest.This is a marathon and a lifestyle change or you will be right back here trying to do a quick fix.

Oh my,I 💯 agree the sistem fail me in many different ways , working 11hour job,2021 I retire my permitted job,due to health issues,.my legs and 30kg obese , only last year while have more time for myself,I search information about intermittent fasting,as I Christain I am used to fasting but hidden sugar, snacking, stressed,not sleeping well, increase weight gain, information is key and I loose 22kg only few months.....
Calories are not the same with different foods But bottom line is you don't wanna go over a certain amount of calories a day either its both
Can one drink coffee while fasting?
Coffee, just plain coffee.
Into third day fasting no weight loss and bs over 105 why I have fasted several time zero weight loss why
Jesus waterfasted for 40 days. Buddha waterfasted for 50 days. Both are my heroes!!!!!

Does anybody know if half a lemon and in your 28 ounce of water triggers insulin or is it diluted enough that I could drink this during fasting and no sugar electrolytes are these things you can drink while fasting?
Based on what I've seen from Drs. Berry, Cywes, and Stenberg, you should be okay.
How much protein should we eat a day if fasting? I don't want to lose muscle.
Best to aim for 1 lbs of protein per pounds of body weight.
Gram not pound
Boredom makes you eat as well dr flung where I stay
A friend said that doing intermittent fasting messed up her hormones. I was sort of doing a non-intentional, intermittent fasting, and to be honest I think it contributed to my weight gain. Any thoughts?
Read his book. Learn how it is done. Sounds like you and your friend are winging it.
For women, there are special protocols to be followed. Please check dr Mindy Pelz "Fast like a girl" for more info.

Yeah. Sometimes it makes me want to cry. I'm in my later 60's. I struggled all my life dieting & working out but I still developed diabetes and high cholesterol. I suspected a problem with my hormones but they checked and said no. Since May I 've been using the Ketogenic diet with I F. I feel like I was a slave all my life and now I've been freed. I'm very angry I had to wait til now to learn this method exists. I'm angry at all my doctors and the medical profession.
I don't eat red meat but I do eat chicken every now and than. I cut out all sugars and all junk food and I don't snack. I do drink a diet, caffeine free Pepsi one a day and I also eat one apple a day sometime two. I initially I lost 13 lbs but I have plateaued and I'm having trouble loosing any more weight . I have just started fasting OMAD but so far nothing. I have been eating Omar for 3 days, what am I doing wrong, I'm pre diabetic, I'm 74 yrs old I walk 1 hr a day a go to the gym 5x a week. Can you help me so I can lose another 10 lbs???
Try cutting out the diet sodas & limit your fruit in take to a few times a week or swap the apples for berries.
Do an extended fast to shock your system from the plateau
Eat more good fat, olive oil, butter, or add walnuts, pecans, macadamia nuts to your diet.
I can fast but then I have another problem I've got when I sleep I bedwetting problem it something I live with I've been in out hospital with my kidneys

@@sofondadavis5028 I finally am trying just every other day for 16 hr fasting. Energy's starting to return.. I'm 70 and it seems most fasting regimens are way too strenuous for me. I love exercise/movement, so I try to max my energy for that.
Give up all, let me emphasize the word ALL, sugars, and processed carbs. High organic fats and very low complex carbs. Feast correctly and fast (16 - 18 hours) until the next meal. It's simple. Stop eating at 7 pm and 18 hours is 1 pm the next day. Easy peasy! But what you eat matters!
Religious fasting had little to do with a health benefit. Now we are learning that the health benefit came as a by product of the religious fast.
People fast as a form of self denial to appease the gods.
When you go into food self denial you are literally punishing yourself by denying a pleasurable activity , showing your God that you are sorry for your sins. The gods will then give in to your temper tantrum of not eating and appease you with their blessings , of whatever you are requesting of them.
Today the science of fasting is bringing all the health benefits to us that we don't need to fast to appease the gods but for our own health and longevity.
With this new knowledge of fasting and autophagy , when we fast we become our own god , no disrespect to the true God - Jehovah.
And exercise do work all the time to reduce weight.
What you need to do is not replace the amount of calories you have expended during the exercise.
The body will need to drawn down on this exercise expended calories from its Glycogen stores until it is used up ( say in 4 weeks time ) and then the drawn down on its Fat stores until it is all used up until you achieve your ideal target weight ( depending on your fat stores , it could take a few months to a few years ).
When you do exercise and a 500 calories restricted daily DIET plan the weight reduction process will speed up twice as fast.
Now we know that your body has to be TRAINED to burn fat. This should take about 2 to 4 weeks of huunger management . And there is now available endless tips how to overcome the 2 to 4 weeks KETO flu.
I did it with eating alot of cabbage and tons of cucumber during my fast in the OMAD routine and drank about 4 cups total of teas and coffee to stave off the hunger , until the hunger dissipates naturally.
When my blood pressure dropped dramatically by up to 35 points due to the keto flu in period (4 weeks), I did not know about the KETO flu. But when I learnt of it increased my salt intake by salting my 1 lime juice and my 15 ml ACV ( to sweeten it ) in my I cup of each of my additional liquid intake during my fast. Some days I had up to 3 extra salted limes or ACV , depending on the need for my salt to keep my pressure close to 100 ,to not have me scared of it being too low
I did all my regular work and 1/2 hour walking exercise easily.
After getting into ketosis ,did not need to take salt and the lime and ACV but still drink about 4 cups coffee teas , chocolate during my fasting time , not to stave off hunger but to get my water supply in.
After 4th week ,when my pressure stabilized I started doing 1 hour brisk walking and the pounds just disappeared.
I would like to disagree with Dr Fung and say that Diet works , Exercise works . And DIET and EXERCISE work even better and faster , at least for me.
It can work with the right understanding of the mechanics behind it as so CLEARLY shown in all these Diabetes , Keto ,Weight loss videos.
I can attest to it. It's proven both scientifically (thanks to the research and videos from all of our wonderful health and wellness counsellors like Dr Fung and Dhru) and to the mathematics behind the calorie in calorie out balancing equation.
Calorie in = calorie expended through metabolism + calorie stored in glycogen and body fat.
Calorie in goes into 3 pathways -- metabolism , glycogen , body/ organ fat.
So when you start out on the calorie restriction diet all you have to do is to fight the hunger that is calling to top up this deficit of calorie ( calories from sugar ) and give the body time to switch from glucose burning to body fat burning .
If you consume more calories than your target calorie restriction , whether from sugar or fat , you will just replenish what you lose and not lose the necessary weight you are aiming for. And it only takes 2 to 4
weeks to get into ketosis. A small sacrifice to pay for a lifetime's benefit.
For those serious about weight loss I would say go for both a calorie restriction diet and exercise at one go.
It just works. No if and but.
Do you need to restrict carbs for ever to remain at target weight? I stopped keto bc my naturapath told me i need half a cup of complex carbs like quinoa etc… but that made me hungry and eventually i spiralled and regained everything 😔 plus extra stress with covid injections job pressures…
@@olololo9224 You do not need to avoid carbs but to use carbs as the needs arise
Carbs are essential and you get enough from your low carb veges like cabbage,cauliflower,and broccoli. Also from resistant rice ( put the cooked rice in the fridge before you use it ) and your occasional bread and root crops.
What the 'researchers" are saying is we need some essential carbs and the body can make this from the protein we eat and if you don't eat enough protein the body then break down our muscles to turn it into glucose/carbs. So to be on the safe side you can eat carbs sparingly
The aim is to avoid carbs when you need to reduce your weight. Once you get to your target weight you can reintroduce carbs and fats ( cheese , butter etc) in your diet.
But you need to monitor your weight because you can easily put on the pounds you have lost.
I give myself a 3 pounds allowance for increase in weight ,after this I cut my carbs and fats until I regain my target weight.
I enjoy everything - ice cream , 80% dark chocolate, cake ,bread , pastries and root crops but I am aware of my WEIGHT gain.
It is a lovely experience to maintain my target weight.
I love brocoli cabbage sprouts not salad it constipatets me dr
Add sweet potato and Half ripe banana . Both are excellent foods rich in fiber.
Eat salad with avocado, nuts, cheese, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, beets, carrots, cucumber, olives and meat you cooked at home.
Fasting is healthy, but I’ve never heard of fasting for the specific purpose of health when it comes to religion. There are certain holidays that people fast and ongoing fasting is considered a time of getting closer to and/or hearing more clearly from God. Focusing on God instead of food. And it’s not just food people fast, although that is the primary way. People fast various things from tv and movies, to computer use etc.

Listen to Dr. Fung's talks about what happens to your basal metabolic rate. Don't give up. Learn about your biology. Dr. F is great.
I have serious doubts about fasting. I did a 7 day water fast . Suffered very much with acid reflux, face and skin has become dull. How can I be sure fasting helped me to get better or worse
Maybe 7 was a bit too much for you.
I did 3 day water fast a few times and felt great.

Which doctor did you study before starting? Did you build up to it gradually? Were you a processed good junkie? Could it be that you experienced all the malaise of detoxification? Look into carbonated charcoal. Blessings!
Did you have apple cider vinegar or lemon water,, which could have caused acid reflux didn’t you get salt or electrolytes, you could have had loss of electrolytes
