    My husband gets so upset that I choose to do 20/4 - I fast from 8pm until 4pm every day unless something comes up. And I work around it but my husband gets upset for i skip meals. He feels the most important meal is breakfast which I don’t eat any more. I have dropped 25lbs and I am able to maintain my weight of 125lbs and I am 5’6” so this is so exciting! I’m now a small in most of my clothing. It really has changed my life.

    My doctor laughs at me when I bring up fasting and keto. But he is very impressed with my washboard stomach muscle. I’m age sixty 169lbs, 5 years ago I had joint pain, pre diabetic and 200 lbs. I only see my once a year for blood work, and the numbers are good. Most people recommend talking to your doctor, however most of them don’t understand nutrition or tell to eat Three meals a day and reduce fat and eat grains. Food pyramid needs to be changed, the food conglomerates control the government along with the drug companies.

      The US Transhumanist Party would like, among many other things to replace the FDA with something not corrupt but with more of an emphasis on life extension with healthspan. Also the party will have "rights to try" new treatments as well as greatly lowering the cost of clinical trials so safe and effective interventions are available much sooner. The party also wants to improve pharmaceuticals and the drug industry generally, getting rid of the "big pharma" negatives.

      Very rarely, will you ever find a doctor that is willing to put down his sponsored pen or his sponsored notepad, and tell you to do something that he doesn’t get sponsorship from such as intermittent fasting and keto. When we practice our own intermittent fasting and keto, we are literally taking food and time off of these crooked doctor’s plates.

I do exercises at least 5 days a week, strength training, hiit, pilates and yoga. I also use steam bath or sauna 5 days a week. This all supposed to help with autophagy. My thyroid measurements are the same for past 3 tests done in March, July and October. My joint pains have been reduced or gone. I have osteoporosis/osteopenua for the last 11 years. I did intermittent fasting with up to 72 hours fasting, thyroxin went down from 175 to 100mg.

    I have been on a intermittent fasting journey for around 9 months now. I use the 18/6 method and I have lost 64 lbs. But the real bonus for me has been Autophagy. Every 4-5 weeks I will go on a water fast. The first time was for 72hrs. Then I did it again for 96hrs. The benefit of mental clarity is eye opening. But the benefit I noticed mostly is that the pain I used to experience in both my knees has become so much more manageable. No pain killers. Just letting nature do what our bodies are made to do. I do on occasion get sore knees again. But not anywhere near as bad as they were. I also walk a great deal. Anywhere between 6-10 miles a day. Most days it around 7 miles in under 2 hours and these days that is done with comparative ease. I cannot recommend strongly enough the real benefits of Autophagy. And I certainly feel that Doctors and more health practitioners should be doing more to promote this. Especially if you are overweight or someone with constant symptoms causing you pain. You have absolutely nothing to lose, and everything to gain by trying this.

      I'm so glad you said that. I had the same experience with my knees but attributed it to increased stretching. Now that I think about it, the knee pain started fading as I changed my meal schedule. I think I assumed there was no way it could do that, but I think it may have.

    I have seen many UA-cam videos on autophagy, but this one is one of the easiest to grasp and well presented! I practice intermittent fasting myself (6 days a week of 16/8 and one day of 24 hr fast). I have seen many of the benefits described here, including weight loss (BMI of 31 down to 24.5 in 2 years) and complete reversal of Type 2 diabetes within 6 months. A switch to a completely plant based diet also helped. These strategies are well worth following, and as mentioned in the video, fasting is essentially free!

    I will be 66 on March 4th this year. I began my journey of intermittent fasting with an aggressive carb and sugar restricted diet in the latter part of June, 2021. I began just eating one good meal per day. It was much easier to do than i thought it would be. After two months of that, i lost about 60 pounds of excess fluids and body fat. I was also able to reverse almost every chronic health problem that plagued me for decades.
    Some of those conditions included obesity, a fatty liver, edema in my lower legs and feet which led to chronic cellulitis occurring in the lower legs. I would bruise easily, contract infections easily, and it would take a long time to heal. I was also urinating frequently at night, had occasional hypertension and had symptoms related to COPD, among other things. All of these conditions have at best, completely reversed, and at worst, have greatly improved.
    There are two issues that i am still struggling with. My feet are always sore, and my toes are stiff. I suspect that there may still be some stubborn neuropathy in my feet. And have also had a hard time of eliminating the puffiness under my eyes. Do you think it could be helpful if i try multi day extended fasting once in a while?

    Subscribed to add another intelligent person to my Arsenal of healing. I have gone from 340 to 240 in exactly one year. I do 16 hour fasts every day, basically my normal eating schedule now and a 24 hour once a week. I’ve implemented 72 hr once every 2 months. My triglycerides have gone from 300 to 99 and fasting insulin 125 to 95 I feel better but I have a 40 lbs to go. Keep up the great work and thank you for the life saving information.

    Thank you so much Dr. Rajsree for your information it’s very educational. I started intermittent fasting about a month ago I’m doing 20/4 and a couple of 24 hours of fasting. I’ve been trying to lose about 40 pounds for the last couple years and nothing worked for me until I started doing intermittent fasting. I dropped 8 pounds already I never thought I could do it but I’m more motivated now than ever.

    Excellent video that gives a concise but well explained summary of autophagy and fasting. Can’t wait to share this one with my wife. I am about to turn 46 in another week and I have been doing something different this year. Through a combination of getting back into the gym for 60 minute workouts three times a week, better eating habits which include an 80% reduction in processed foods, and a healthy balance of intermittent and longer-term fasting (my longest so far is 40 hours but I hope to improve that to 72 and beyond) I have so far reduced my weight from 205 to 188 and more importantly I feel better, I think Sharper, and I’m not dreading 46 like I once was. I’ve replaced numerous pounds of fat with muscle growth! I’m now on a quest to be healthier and more physically fit at 50 than I was at 30.

    Very informative very eloquent clear description on what's going on with your body and ways to heal your body. with the benefits of intermittent fasting. Thank you💕 for many years inadvertently I may have been doing this in my working day each day. I used to take my beautiful Daughter to school she used to like me taking her and picking her up from school. I was self-employed and I thought I can do this. I used to drop her off at 8.30 and pick her up at 3 p.m. from when she was little First School right up until she was 16, from school, (from when we she was 15/16 sometimes she walked home, but I always make sure to be home to greet her) this gave me 5.5 hours work straight through with no lunch breaks then get her evening dinner ready so that meant I hadn't eaten from 5 p.m. to 5 p.m. my job was very hard physically outdoors I just used to run on filtered black coffee in a flask all I had all day was just one small square 1 inch by 1 inch what I called an energy cake I made which consisted of wholegrain self-raising flour one complete orange and lemon with peel with some cane sugar blended and baked. I had to have something because once I nearly fell over where I went a bit wobbly. I used to sometimes feel like I was revving like a racing engine but I gained working time by not having lunch breaks and working straight through. I noticed I felt extremely fit and I had good muscle definition. I became very attached you could almost say addicted to filtered coffee. Extremely sadly, emotionally very hard to deal with my beautiful Daughter took her own life - non deliberate suicide-- at 16yr 2 months old with taking a massive overdose of her prescribed medicine. In Remembrance of her I still drink filtered coffee every day it reminds me of the good times my beautiful Daughter and I had together I used to take her to work with me it was safe we were in the middle of nowhere or Fields was sometimes people's gardens. I visit her garden every day, I have difficulty saying grave I call it her garden. I go to see her everyday without fail it has been 8 years 5 months 1 week 5 days. I lght 2 candles on her garden in small lanterns so the wind don't blow then out, although I can tell the way the wind is blowing through the trees there probably won't keep a light some days but I try anyway. The kindly doctor you came out to me, a day later I think after my Daughter went away. I was really really traumatised crying, beyond words what feels like. He was really good words and advice, he said when you're ready go to work, work is good, do whatever it is you need to do each day keep busy. I understood what he meant take your mind off things, not to think. Very often there was no one there I used to be crying at work every day. 1-year ago One day I know it's my heart was like missing a beat or the next one would be a very big beat. Concerned I went to the doctor's when they wired me up my heart was good my blood pressure was I though 167/ 85 when I mentioned The coffee thing I got up to 2 L A Day they stopped writing and said that that wouldn't help your BP. I completely stopped it's now 119 / 69 I have started drinking the coffee again but no more three quarters of a litre / 1 pint I have not come to terms with my daughter going I've just learnt to live each day💕💕 I apologise if this is too long comment but seem to help writing

You have blown my mind with such a clear concise explanation. I have suffered for years with an autoimmune condition and depression, I recently reached a crisis point and felt the only other thing I could change was my diet, skip toward 3months and I have learnt so so much about the mind body connection.

Fasting removed a lot of pain and suffering from arthritis, back, and hip pain that I had for years. My doctor was blown away after reading my blood test results, as was I. Unfortunately, and it's sad really, that he didn't even know the difference between a vegetarian and vegan.

In the initial 1 and a half years I lost 30 kgs. I'm maintaining the weight. I've gained health, I'm now as energetic as I was 20 years ago. I do fasted long walks and fasted weight training also.

Your inclusion of autophagy is excellent, and so important for the bigger ‘health benefits’ picture. I’m passing along this great yet simple video to all I know who want: goal A, B, C… or complain about: malady A, B, C…. Rajsree, you really struck a perfect balance between providing knowledge, and making it easily digestible (pun not intended). :)

    One of the best videos I have watched regarding Autophagy, Intermittent fasting and so on. I was kind of missing some more comments about what happens in the body when we eat and insuline are produced regarding fat storage and how this hormone stops the Autophagy process. It is a great compilation of all the information I have obtained about the subject from T. Delauer and Dr. Berg to mention some of the more well known resources in this field. Thank you so much for a great video which I have already shared with friends.

    Thanks for the great video! I've been doing intermittent and extended fasting for over 2 years with excellent results. I'll never return to the 3 meals a day, and I'm convinced most everyone will be doing some form of fasting in the not-too-distant future. There's so many benefits! One point I try to emphasize with those people who wonder about hunger when fasting is this: I generally eat from 9AM to 12 noon each day and my body quickly became accustomed to this pattern. I never get hungry in the evenings and feel fine most all the time.

That’s what scared me into low carb. This current fasting gave me a constant light headache but I didn’t feel hungry. Why the headache?
