It is very true to eat real food loose weight and feel better. I have lost over 100 lbs since 11 months ago. I used to eat toast or cereal for breakfast and I got hungry after an hour. I was better off not eating at all.
For 5 years straight in the 80s, I used to have a bowl of corn flakes every morning. In those days, an egg a day was supposedly going to kill us all. 😭By 10am I was always starving. That’s when I realized eating a high carb meal just causes a rebound effect in a few hours. No one knew this then, and as I tried to explain it, people thought I was crazy. LOL
To think back to what I did to my body for 40 years is horrifying. It's hard to believe any of us are Alive. Our bodies must be pretty resilient to take that abuse. But, the damage I have done certainly shows. It breaks my heart to watch friends and family continue to damage themselves. They don't want to believe this is what they need to do. I guess everyone has to come to terms with it in their own time.
If the student is ready the teacher will corme. (Forgot who said this) I remember several occasions when it came to the question of fasting and Low/No carb... finally I got it! Better late than never. Maybe THEY will understand when they see the results. If not - we have rot accept their decision
I’ve also total messed up my metabolism with all the diets I have been on, now I do 16/8 and prioritise protein and vegetables and it makes such a difference.
Dr Fung talks sense, and more than that he allows for normal life. He advises these things, gives lots of information, and proof,but says if there is a special occasion don't beat yourself up, just fall back onto the diet as soon as you can .
Going through perimenopause, I had struggled to lose weight for 3 years, (I watched calories in & out, drank a lot of water, exercised moderately everyday, slept early, I did everything right, yet the weight would never really come off and always tended to go up!) then I tried OMAD for 2 weeks, guess what happened? I lost 6.6 lbs. And the wonderful thing is my body fat is lower than before in my lower weight. Hormones totally play important role here. Thanks Dr. Fung 😊
I lost 10kg in 1 month just by doing the 16:8 fasting, no exercise at all. This is crazy, I am 49 and I was trying to lose weight for the past 2 years to no avail.
@@thedigitalceo 2 meals a day, the gaps are 16 hrs and 8 hrs. I only eat at 11 am and 7 pm. Now I have not much hunger at lunch too so I might want to try 1 meal a day only at dinner meaning a 24 hr fast each day.
@@kerankaur5893 Mostly a Keto diet but I have a balanced portion of fats, proteins and carbs instead. The important thing is to cut out sugar and processed carbs.
I believe that our culture has hit rock bottom. I just saw a recipe for "Healthy Banana Breakfast Cookies". Apparently, if you add chia seeds and collagen peptides to a cookie, it stops being dessert. :: my eyes are rolling so hard right now ::
@@vk_singh good luck buddy. It is all in your head. Just dont eat and dont put stuff in your mouth. I am down to 72kg now. Reached my goalweight and lost 22kg in 2.5 months
Eggs steak real butter fish chicken vegetables anything with no starch anything not highly processed and if you trying to balance it out have it but don’t two bigger meals after all in moderation but he says he tries to avoid processed foods over all
Yes have done all of this and fasting have only lost 2kg in 3 months we are all different nothing is magic for all . Also done several 48 fasts and 18 24 hours in between
I used to be overweight and very insulin resistant. It was impossible for me to lose body fat. Eventually, I followed a high fat - low carb diet and I lost 66 lbs (30 kg) in 8 months. It worked very well for me. Losing weight is incredibly easy if you know what your doing. In my opinion, best diet to reverse insulin resistance is a low carb diet.
Yesss intermittent 18/6 for the past 5 months now has changed my body forever! Lost ALL the 25+ weight in these 5 months and insulin resistance is WAY better n probably gone or on it’s way out!! I can’t wait to see my doctor. Being 58 n menopausal was impossible to lose the weight. It works for my body!!! Thanks to these internet doctors
It's also portion control. People do not eat a small bowl of oat meal or a 4oz orange juice, they eat twice as much. They double their carb and calories content.
I’ve had the sleeve surgery which is just a money maker- everything is back to normal except the amount I can eat in one sitting. I can still choose to eat the same crap I did before and eat that throughout the day. Nothing has made me feel stronger and made more of a difference than living a fasting focused lifestyle, low carb, when I do eat. Getting fat adapted is going to get me to my goal weight without craving the carbs/processed food. 🙌🏼
@@Tennessee24 I had the Gastric sleeve 11 plus years ago. I was 251 pounds went down to 180 then back up to 201. I was eating the wong foods and not moving. Im back to a low carb High protein diet and walking more. Im 176 now hoping to get to 160.
@scalpdotink8450 You know it😃👍 You’ve got the key, you feel stronger with a fasting, low carb based lifestyle & it only gets better from there. You can do it! Your gut microbiome is at your core & dictates the state of your health. Therefore it is of utmost importance to keep it vibrant. I’m sure you’ve heard our microbiome is considered our “second brain”. Keep it healthy & hydrated with plenty of water, whole proteins, omega 3 foods, fermented foods, fresh vegetables & (fresh seasonal fruits during maintenance). At the same time preserving your health by staying away from processed grains, seed oils & sugar. But if you do have a little of that bad stuff, acknowledge it & get right back to your long term goals. Just remember the more processed carbs (sugar) you have, the more likely those little bastards will infiltrate your microbiome & keep you craving them. Body movement like stretching, walking, yoga, resistance training & weight lifting will keep your cells oxygenated which curbs cravings. Best of everything to you!!!!
This is such a pleasant podcast. It is a pleasure to hear him. He is so lovely. Really on a mission. Promoting health and handle health. Amazing speaking to the mass. Thank you for this. Great subject. We need it.
Just eat low carbs, do intermittent fasting and you won't even have to pay attention to calorie amount because you WILL automatically lose calories. You won't want to eat so much if your fasting 23 hours a day, or even just 16 hours a day. I'm a 47 year old Hypothyroid old lady and every other metabolic problem, too. But I've gone from 267 to 200, and I'm still going, so I guess I figured something out. I call it the Triple Threat Approach. It's like having DX in your corner.
16/8 was normal in the 70s. Breakfast right before school, lunch at school, dinner a few hours after getting home. No snacking, no food after dinner. IF every day was normal. Adults either skipped breakfast or ate with the kids and had dinner with the kids. Adults were mostly doing IF, too. Why has obesity ballooned since we started eating all day long?
Soda consumption and the high fructose corn syrup that's in almost everything. The high sugar content in our food drives the appetite too and the result is obesity.
Good tip but it's about a lot more than weight loss. Some of the many benefits of fasting and a lower carb whole food diet 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. Fasts of several days will not affect short term female fertility and may increase long term fertility especially in women with PCOS. It's absolutely fine for cortisol to be high while fasting, because it produces sugar from fat instead of lean tissue ruclips.net/video/giEDadzoErs/видео.html Does the body prefernetially prefer glucose as a fuel? No, it never uses mainly glucose for fuel and using glucose for fuel is very biochemically damaging! ruclips.net/video/Nf1jwMbvNxw/видео.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! ruclips.net/video/teQIaU6wp2o/видео.html Fasting can make you gain muscle faster: ruclips.net/video/5RM8GRzsIIg/видео.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! ruclips.net/video/BeC_gIR2Z14/видео.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 regulator of BDNF production 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? ruclips.net/video/7aRLsCpxy3o/видео.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. Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it and builds muscle! ruclips.net/video/fJUDucBWv4s/видео.html 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. 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.

I use to love toast for breakfast but now I realize it was a sugar craving. For the past 5 years, I normally break my fast at 1pm. I feel more energetic eating this way.
I realized that I craved my coffee every morning first thing because I drank it with sugar. When I started having it without sugar I realised I didn't really crave it in the morning and wasn't hungry until about 10.30am. I now do 16:8 and easily last until 1 or 2pm before I'm hungry.
I just started fasting about a week ago and so far lost about 5lbs but the best part is that I can focus at work! I was having such a hard time with brain fog, today I finally was totally focused before I felt like I couldn't stay still and was just all over the place in my head lol.
I've tried 16/8 and 20/4 just a week ago and lost 2kgs around (4 to 5 lbs) as well! Just ate low carb and high protein and fiber. And I don't feel weak or even my usual cravings had fade away.
I am strictly in a keto diet since 03/15/2023; today is 05/29/2023; i have not seen much lost weight difference as today; however, i have noticed my belly is downsizing; my chin is not bulky as it was before i started the keto diet; and also, as soon as i go to bed, i fall asleep as a baby :D NOW i do not have problems to fall asleep. ALSO, i have added intermittent fasting, i have been eating once a day for the last week (salmon w asparagus, celery cooked in the Oven Air Fryer); then i continue fasting until the next day at 3:30 or 4pm. I have a gallon of NON sugary homemade lemonade, a gallon of cinnamon/anise/cloves homemade tea in the fridge; hot chamomile tea, water, coffee. I also have hard boiled eggs in the fridge handy in case i get hunger prangs. I am decently handling it very well, because i am taking it as personal project, as fun. Overall i am feeling great.
Glad I watched this, Jason Fung is always entertaining, even though a lot of it is repetition of what I have heard him say before, however there is always new information or perspective, which makes it more interesting. The host thankfully kept quiet for the most part.
I am so glad I found Dr Jason ! I know nothing happens by chance ! God has blessed him with such an amazing Gift 🎁 and he uses it wisely! 🙏🏼⚔️📖👍🏽 My son and I have lost so much in a short time ! We are use to 24 hours of intermittent fasting it’s the best so many benefits! Thank you so very much ! 🙏🏼👍🏽👍🏽
I have been trying calories in and out equation and it does not really work well and I had to work really hard, especially I am 60’s. My friends had same experience. Fasting is the only effective way for me, just cut meals down to two or one and carbs. Thank you Dr Fung.

It worked very well for me. Losing weight is incredibly easy if you know what your doing. In my opinion, best diet to reverse insulin resistance is a low carb diet. No need to cut down meals to 1 or 2 a day. Also, losing body fat and losing weight are not the same. Many people also lose muscle mass during weight loss, but ideally you want to lose mainly body fat.
I changed my diet to contain more and more high fiber from diverse whole plant foods the past 4 months. Gradually increased daily fiber from 12g to 25g of fiber a day (RDA for women). High fiber naturally takes longer for me to eat and is very filling. I was always a fast eater before. I also changed from grazing during my 10 hour feeding window to 2 distinct meals with 4 hours between without food. I also now walk 20 minutes after meals. This has fixed my IBS. So then I did a 24-hour water fast 2 weeks ago. I lost 3 pounds in 2 weeks after a 5 week plateau. Now I always feel full because of the increased fiber and spacing of meals without snacks. I'm sure the 24-hour fast helped improve my gut microbiome as well.
I nursed both my children. They are super healthy. NEVER a cavity (37 and 19). Super smart. If you can nurse (I understand some can't), do. I do plan on treating myself to a breast lift though...yeah...😀. Dr. Fung!! So grateful for your simple approach to fasting and healthy eating. God bless you!
Nursing is the best. Nursed my son for 2 1/2 years. Was just at night those last few months. I got to be really lazy, while my mom friends were always having to make bottles. I also ate a ton and was super thin. :)
I breastfed my 2 baby boys for around 2 - 3 mths but had to stop for various reasons, one of those being post natal depression. Their main food source was formula milk until they reached 6 months' when I started Baby Led Weaning: so easy & more natural than pureeing solid food all the time. Both are now 14 & 12 and super healthy: none have cavities or fillings even though they eat sweets whenever they want. It's the fact that they have a varied diet (unlimited carbs, fats, fruits & veg but not much meat) & don't eat between meals.
One thing I am sure about is that regardless of type of diet, eating unprocessed or less processed food is very effective in losing healthy specially belly fat.
@@johncaollai5915 organic is irrelevant. Also there is no one list of 'ok'. If you're eating too much and you're fat, then maybe try cutting out the bread and eating more protein and healthy vegetables
@@uelude much thanks for sharing and your reply I am 5foot8 weight just below 69 kg so I believe my weight ok. Thanks to the intermittent fasting. was just asking about the organic soda bread as I love it. I guss its also bad?
@@johncaollai5915 Sounds like you can eat basically what you want if you're weight is fine and you're healthy. A little bread once in a while is certainly not going to kill you.😊
Regarding whey powders - there’s a difference between the ones with loads of additives and the one’s that are just the derivatives of dairy ( usually the by product of cheese making). They might be considered “processed” but it’s actually just the bad stuff like milk sugars (lactose) taken out, so I still regard them as a natural food product, provided that the dairy originates from organic grass fed cows. I think those pure whey powders (or collagen powders) can be a useful addition to a healthy diet, especially for those of us who eat less meat.
I made a mix of Whey protein Isolate, Collagen, MCT powder and Inulin to use in my first cup of coffee. The Inulin has helped to correct my irregularity.
I’m 3D3 I’ve lost over 200 pounds without surgery from correcting the one and only flaw in intermittent fasting When to take the break for balancing Leptin and staying out of thermogenesis I went from 375 pounds to 165
@@nerspal the first one hundred pounds IF worked by going 12: to 12: next day every day eating one large meal at noon then second small meal by 3: But then nothing has until I started taking a break from it once after every three days I began to get rid of the second hundred pounds
Hi Ben, intermittent fasting I do 18/6. I eat clean fresh fruits, fresh veggies, chicken, and fish chicken with no antibiotics are for moans all natural. I drink a gallon of water a day. No processed food no junk food no fast food. It’s all about information. I also have Hashimoto’s/Hypothyroidism. I take great supplement a great quality, probiotic. It’s very simple just to get the inflammation out of your body is clean. Drink your water no snacks no processed foods and if you can try intermittent fasting I really does work. I eat one time at 12 PM and I eat my second and last meal at 5 PM nothing after 6 PM.
If you are going longer periods of time without eating since you are fasting longer, how can you NOT eat less calories and thus lower your metabolic rate. There is more information needed here. Do you stuff yourself when you do eat so you get enough calories? How can you tell if your metabolism is slowing down? Is there a test?
what about how insulin effects Protein metabolism: (a) it increases the rate of transport of some amino acids into tissues, (b) it increases the rate of protein synthesis in muscle, adipose tissue, liver, and other tissues, (c) it decreases the rate of protein degradation in muscle (and perhaps other tissues)?
There’s no doubt insulin is Important. We need it to live. It’s a growth hormone. Great for when you are wanting to grow. Insulin does it’s job regardless if we eat 2 times a day or 8 times a day. That’s not the point though. It’s the constant bombardment of insulin spikes throughout the 10-14 hour feasting day that’s the problem.
What top ten foods to eat? Why did you call your thumbnail that? You mentioned no foods. Your transcript contradicts the title. I'm glad I ran through the transcript and saw it was not mentioned.
What I got from the discussion - the foods to avoid are snacks in between meals, sugar, processed food which includes the white foods - pasta, flour, etc.
Main take away - sugar spikes insulin which causes your body to store fat - avoid alcohol and sugary beverages. All natural orange juice is better than store bought orange juice 😊
I don't think exercise matter much in terms of weight loss. I lost 10kg without exercise just doing 16:8 fasting in 1 month. In the past, i hit the gym 3 times a week and I can't even lost more than 3 kg. Exercising just make you healthier.
I love Dr. Fung's explanation of hormones, and fasting. Not to nitpick, but I think most people (Americans at least) consume way too much protein to try to extend life & health span as goals. Suggest people check out the Zoe podcasts on protein and the Valter Longo podcasts on Rich Roll (David Sinclair has similar views). Not only is excessive protein just excreted or turned into fat, but it increases all cause mortality by 400% for people consuming meat, and 300% for vegans/vegetarians (they often think they are not getting enough protein, so they over compensate). Not saying this is nutrition gospel (they also say not to skip breakfast which I don't buy at this time), but it's a good idea to look into it. So a big problem may be going overboard on protein (not even including supplements), not just processed, low quality carbohydrates & fats. Just something to look at is all.
During Fasting, Blood Sugar and Insulin levels decrease to allow the use of Stored Fat for energy .This allows us to receive nutrition while we are simultaneously losing weight. Supplements like water / electrolytes /fibre / multivitamin, may be required , also . P.s. , if taking medications , a doctor may need to adjust those meds during Fasting because if blood pressure decreases , Medication for high blood pressure (for example) would need to be lessened.

I have found that Intermittent fasting and keto are a combo that is effective for weight loss and increasing health.Can be done plant based,raw vegan,flexitarian or as a meat eater.Worth checking out.
@@wiardbarthil7872 Much better for you and the planet to include grass-fed meats and pasture-raised eggs, chicken, and pork. A vegan diet doesn't have everything we need, while people who eat nothing but meat live long and healthy lives. I'm not suggesting that, but including some meat will provide nutrients you can't get anywhere else without supplements-and maybe not even then.
This interviewer was just not listening to what the Dr. Was saying. The Dr talks about insulin spikes and when to eat. Not so much on what foods to eat.
I love Dr Fung...I read The Obesity Code over 2 yrs ago. It helped me lose 80lbs doing IF along with Keto...then low carb...now I do resistance training & follow Dr Ted Naimen's philosophy from his PE:DIET book....protein to energy ratio...Max maybe you can interview him.
He is a good interview +1 Perhaps a slightly oversimplification in his earlier interviews, although now I'm sure he'll have a lot of good things to say
The title of this video is The Top Foods You Need to Eat to Lose Weight. Okay, so how long does it take to list those foods? About 10 minutes I think. So why is the video over one hour long? Because it's 50 minutes of filler and the top foods are never listed.
So means for example for those Pre d type 2 tat on OMAD daily for the one meal in the morning, can eat tempeh and Shitake mushrooms Goji berries green capsicum cabbage eggplant red onion walnut pecan and Brazil nut ? This is considered one meal, can ? This one meal prepared estimate finish in an hour max
This was a very long way round to drop a few good points. And the ‘melt fat away’ headline us totally misleading based on the content of this podcast. Just be honest and honour the content rather than click bait headlines.
Dr. Fung, can erythritol be used as a sweetener in coffee? Unlike most other sweeteners it does not contain sucrose. I read that Erythritol is made from corn but can be found manufactured from non-GMO corn. It does not cause an increase in blood glucose levels. What is your thought on this? Thank you.
I've just seen Max's conversation with Sal Di Stefano. And now this. Jason Fung and Sal are of very divergent points of view. Jason is pro-fasting and anti-calorie counting. Sal says balancing calories is really what matters, no matter where these calories come from. He adds that fasting leads to binging, so there should be no problem how often you eat as long as you manage your calories. Jason says that the hormones that are triggered by specific foods, not so much the calories in these foods, are what really matter. Max seemed more comfortable and responsive to Sal. They had a steady exchange of similar points of view. With Jason, he kept his conversation somewhat "distantly cordial." Especially the part about protein powders vs steak. I think Max's stance becomes clear when you watch these two conversations one after the other.
I did the five meals a day diet and lost a lot of weight. I don’t know how, but it worked very good. I was also working hard full time so I’m sure that was a big part of it.
Some kids don’t have snacks to bring to school and their friends will share with them. The teachers asking for 2 snacks instead of 1 has more reasons than you think. Also the kids will be more active for longer and they may need a recharge 🤣
What about a type 1 on a pump that doesn't want to eat all day, PREFERS a OMAD, eats around 9 pm so can stay busy all day. And ppl keep whining to eat so you can take insulin, or a pump injecting insulin and not being hungry.
Hi Max! Pretty good vudeo. Mate you missed the ideal opportunity to talk about the GLYPHOSATE (RoundUp) that is used in the making of flour these days! They're spraying this crap ON THE CROP ITSELF these days, a week or two before harvest! This spraying of the herbicide just before harvest kills & dries out the far quicker, & gives the farmers more yield per ton. Apparemtly the 'I'm full now' signal we get from the vagas nerve is attenuated by the glyphosate, so that we overeat. Not to mention other dreadful side effects that have been reported! So thumbs up & thank you, but no cigar for this one.
If you starve someone like a POW- yeah, they’ll get really skinny. But, abusively reducing calories also means losing toning muscle, bone loss, collagen loss, immune disorders, and jaundice. Muscle building, whole natural food, proper fasting- will ensure your body gets lean/toned and operates like a well-oiled machine
Metabolic Cycle: Morning: light feed, then burn energy/carbs/calories (work/exercise/caloric output) Noon: low/no-carb feed, then burn energy Evening: lightest feed, rest/de-stress/restore Night: Fasting/restoration overnight 6pm-6am Carb/calorie consumption should always match level of output/work; alongside your specific storage needs (winter outdoor work requires more fat storage [seasonly]; vice versus in summer).
I don’t understand. What do you mean feed then burn? If you’re feeding morning afternoon and night, then when are you fasting? Just 8 hours overnight? That’s not enough for most ppl with severe lR. 16:8 definitely doesn’t work for me
@@ashleyhaley6322 You simply expend/burn everything you eat between meals; then fast overnight. IOW you use up/burn all calories/carbs before they can go into storge as fat (unless/until you need it, as in winter fat for warmth/hibernation).

She launched it to help people with chronic disease. It would be really interesting to have an interview on: Keto Supplements and healthy low carb diets for: hormonal health, weight loss, reversing insulin resistance, improving mental health, athletic recovery, cognition etc There is so much we can learn from our past and hearing a Health Anthropologist’s approach to modern health and increasing healthspan would be really useful.

It is very true to eat real food loose weight and feel better. I have lost over 100 lbs since 11 months ago. I used to eat toast or cereal for breakfast and I got hungry after an hour. I was better off not eating at all.
Its such a relief that there are doctors that use their education to help people rather then just doing what they are told and selling pharmacuticals.
For 5 years straight in the 80s, I used to have a bowl of corn flakes every morning. In those days, an egg a day was supposedly going to kill us all. 😭By 10am I was always starving. That’s when I realized eating a high carb meal just causes a rebound effect in a few hours. No one knew this then, and as I tried to explain it, people thought I was crazy. LOL

To think back to what I did to my body for 40 years is horrifying. It's hard to believe any of us are Alive. Our bodies must be pretty resilient to take that abuse. But, the damage I have done certainly shows. It breaks my heart to watch friends and family continue to damage themselves. They don't want to believe this is what they need to do. I guess everyone has to come to terms with it in their own time.

I’ve also total messed up my metabolism with all the diets I have been on, now I do 16/8 and prioritise protein and vegetables and it makes such a difference.
Dr Fung talks sense, and more than that he allows for normal life.
He advises these things, gives lots of information, and proof,but says if there is a special occasion don't beat yourself up, just fall back onto the diet as soon as you can .
If you eat less, low carb n high fat, the weight just falls off! The man is a genius!
Going through perimenopause, I had struggled to lose weight for 3 years, (I watched calories in & out, drank a lot of water, exercised moderately everyday, slept early, I did everything right, yet the weight would never really come off and always tended to go up!) then I tried OMAD for 2 weeks, guess what happened? I lost 6.6 lbs. And the wonderful thing is my body fat is lower than before in my lower weight. Hormones totally play important role here. Thanks Dr. Fung 😊
I was in the same boat and on Day 25 on OMAD and I can finally get into my old clothes which I couldn't even put over my head!
I am.in the EXACT SAME situation, let me ask...how many calories in the OMAD do u aim for?
What do you eat on our one meal?
@@lsfloridagirl If you watch more of Dr. Fung's videos you will see that he does not suggest counting calories ever.
Sorry, what does OMAD stand for?
I lost 10kg in 1 month just by doing the 16:8 fasting, no exercise at all. This is crazy, I am 49 and I was trying to lose weight for the past 2 years to no avail.

@@thedigitalceo 2 meals a day, the gaps are 16 hrs and 8 hrs. I only eat at 11 am and 7 pm. Now I have not much hunger at lunch too so I might want to try 1 meal a day only at dinner meaning a 24 hr fast each day.
@@kingmurgos1222 Hi May i know what is your 11am and 7pm meal type? thanks
@@kerankaur5893 Mostly a Keto diet but I have a balanced portion of fats, proteins and carbs instead. The important thing is to cut out sugar and processed carbs.

Thsnk you!@NAJIWOLF559
This becomes extremely clear when you cut sugar consumption including rice, pasta, bread, potatoes etc. Now that you've done that try fasting...
So true. It's much easier to fast when you've already become fat-adapted by cutting the carbs way down.
Yes have done all of this and fasting have only lost 2kg in 3 months we are all different nothing is magic for all . Also done several 48 fasts and 18 24 hours in between
I love the emphasis on concentrating more on turning on that metabolic switch.
So so so good, thank you both x
So what are the foods we should eat?

Greetings from Italy
I used to be overweight and very insulin resistant. It was impossible for me to lose body fat. Eventually, I followed a high fat - low carb diet and I lost 66 lbs (30 kg) in 8 months. It worked very well for me.
Losing weight is incredibly easy if you know what your doing. In my opinion, best diet to reverse insulin resistance is a low carb diet.
So what did you eat, please? A lot of fat? They are saying you need to eat fat meat and butter? Thanks
@@lli3007 I ate a lot of protein and healthy fats like avocado, nuts, coconut oil, olive oil, eggs and fish.
Yesss intermittent 18/6 for the past 5 months now has changed my body forever! Lost ALL the 25+ weight in these 5 months and insulin resistance is WAY better n probably gone or on it’s way out!! I can’t wait to see my doctor. Being 58 n menopausal was impossible to lose the weight. It works for my body!!! Thanks to these internet doctors

It's also portion control. People do not eat a small bowl of oat meal or a 4oz orange juice, they eat twice as much. They double their carb and calories content.
100%
Guilty as charged!
It is not anout calorie restriction intake. Dr Jason's focus is on fasting.
Both of these are loaded with sugar and carbohydrates. They are not “heathy carbohydrates.

I’ve had the sleeve surgery which is just a money maker- everything is back to normal except the amount I can eat in one sitting. I can still choose to eat the same crap I did before and eat that throughout the day. Nothing has made me feel stronger and made more of a difference than living a fasting focused lifestyle, low carb, when I do eat. Getting fat adapted is going to get me to my goal weight without craving the carbs/processed food. 🙌🏼
My worries is with bypass is i dont eat much..if i fast..i will not eat enough. I wish he answered that for bypass patients
Everyone I know of that has had that sleeve surgery has after 1 year gained it vack

@scalpdotink8450
You know it😃👍
You’ve got the key, you feel stronger with a fasting, low carb based lifestyle & it only gets better from there. You can do it!
Your gut microbiome is at your core & dictates the state of your health. Therefore it is of utmost importance to keep it vibrant. I’m sure you’ve heard our microbiome is considered our “second brain”.
Keep it healthy & hydrated with plenty of water, whole proteins, omega 3 foods, fermented foods, fresh vegetables & (fresh seasonal fruits during maintenance).
At the same time preserving your health by staying away from processed grains, seed oils & sugar. But if you do have a little of that bad stuff, acknowledge it & get right back to your long term goals.
Just remember the more processed carbs (sugar) you have, the more likely those little bastards will infiltrate your microbiome & keep you craving them.
Body movement like stretching, walking, yoga, resistance training & weight lifting will keep your cells oxygenated which curbs cravings.
Best of everything to you!!!!
Good one, Thank you!
This is such a pleasant podcast. It is a pleasure to hear him. He is so lovely. Really on a mission. Promoting health and handle health. Amazing speaking to the mass. Thank you for this. Great subject. We need it.
I was always a fan of Steel cut oats, I do eat once in a while...What I have done is cut sugar and flour
Just eat low carbs, do intermittent fasting and you won't even have to pay attention to calorie amount because you WILL automatically lose calories. You won't want to eat so much if your fasting 23 hours a day, or even just 16 hours a day. I'm a 47 year old Hypothyroid old lady and every other metabolic problem, too. But I've gone from 267 to 200, and I'm still going, so I guess I figured something out. I call it the Triple Threat Approach. It's like having DX in your corner.
Awesome. Thank you. Learned a lot.
16/8 was normal in the 70s. Breakfast right before school, lunch at school, dinner a few hours after getting home. No snacking, no food after dinner. IF every day was normal. Adults either skipped breakfast or ate with the kids and had dinner with the kids. Adults were mostly doing IF, too. Why has obesity ballooned since we started eating all day long?
Linoleic acid in seed oils. See Dr Chris Knobbe MD video on seed oils on RUclips
Soda consumption and the high fructose corn syrup that's in almost everything. The high sugar content in our food drives the appetite too and the result is obesity.
Don’t have the cookies and chips at home, then you can’t be mindlessly snacking on them! Great video!
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
SO important!!! Don’t sabotage yourself!
Realized this the other day with those cookies I claimed were for my son , 😫
Like Dr Fung says, it's common sense
Good tip but it's about a lot more than weight loss.
Some of the many benefits of fasting and a lower carb whole food diet 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.
Fasts of several days will not affect short term female fertility and may increase long term fertility especially in women with PCOS.
It's absolutely fine for cortisol to be high while fasting, because it produces sugar from fat instead of lean tissue ruclips.net/video/giEDadzoErs/видео.html
Does the body prefernetially prefer glucose as a fuel? No, it never uses mainly glucose for fuel and using glucose for fuel is very biochemically damaging! ruclips.net/video/Nf1jwMbvNxw/видео.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! ruclips.net/video/teQIaU6wp2o/видео.html
Fasting can make you gain muscle faster: ruclips.net/video/5RM8GRzsIIg/видео.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! ruclips.net/video/BeC_gIR2Z14/видео.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 regulator of BDNF production 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? ruclips.net/video/7aRLsCpxy3o/видео.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.
Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it and builds muscle!
ruclips.net/video/fJUDucBWv4s/видео.html
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.
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.

Best doctor ❤️
Great interviewer.. asked all great questions I was wondering about.
I use to love toast for breakfast but now I realize it was a sugar craving. For the past 5 years, I normally break my fast at 1pm. I feel more energetic eating this way.
I realized that I craved my coffee every morning first thing because I drank it with sugar. When I started having it without sugar I realised I didn't really crave it in the morning and wasn't hungry until about 10.30am. I now do 16:8 and easily last until 1 or 2pm before I'm hungry.
I just started fasting about a week ago and so far lost about 5lbs but the best part is that I can focus at work! I was having such a hard time with brain fog, today I finally was totally focused before I felt like I couldn't stay still and was just all over the place in my head lol.
I've tried 16/8 and 20/4 just a week ago and lost 2kgs around (4 to 5 lbs) as well! Just ate low carb and high protein and fiber. And I don't feel weak or even my usual cravings had fade away.
i counsel people who live with diabetes and ive had some degree of success...you books you tube vidoes have a tremendous impact!
I am strictly in a keto diet since 03/15/2023; today is 05/29/2023; i have not seen much lost weight difference as today; however, i have noticed my belly is downsizing; my chin is not bulky as it was before i started the keto diet; and also, as soon as i go to bed, i fall asleep as a baby :D NOW i do not have problems to fall asleep. ALSO, i have added intermittent fasting, i have been eating once a day for the last week (salmon w asparagus, celery cooked in the Oven Air Fryer); then i continue fasting until the next day at 3:30 or 4pm. I have a gallon of NON sugary homemade lemonade, a gallon of cinnamon/anise/cloves homemade tea in the fridge; hot chamomile tea, water, coffee. I also have hard boiled eggs in the fridge handy in case i get hunger prangs. I am decently handling it very well, because i am taking it as personal project, as fun. Overall i am feeling great.
Fantastic interview 😊 thank you 😊
Glad I watched this, Jason Fung is always entertaining, even though a lot of it is repetition of what I have heard him say before, however there is always new information or perspective, which makes it more interesting. The host thankfully kept quiet for the most part.
"Repetition is the mother of teaching" ! 😉
I am so glad I found Dr Jason ! I know nothing happens by chance ! God has blessed him with such an amazing Gift 🎁 and he uses it wisely! 🙏🏼⚔️📖👍🏽 My son and I have lost so much in a short time ! We are use to 24 hours of intermittent fasting it’s the best so many benefits! Thank you so very much ! 🙏🏼👍🏽👍🏽
I have been trying calories in and out equation and it does not really work well and I had to work really hard, especially I am 60’s. My friends had same experience. Fasting is the only effective way for me, just cut meals down to two or one and carbs. Thank you Dr Fung.
I used to be overweight and very insulin resistant. It was impossible for me to lose body fat. Eventually, I followed a high fat - low carb diet and I lost 66 lbs (30 kg) in 8 months. It worked very well for me.
Losing weight is incredibly easy if you know what your doing. In my opinion, best diet to reverse insulin resistance is a low carb diet. No need to cut down meals to 1 or 2 a day. Also, losing body fat and losing weight are not the same. Many people also lose muscle mass during weight loss, but ideally you want to lose mainly body fat.
Eating six times per day... The reason I've read in several places (decades ago) was to regulate/smooth out insulin response.
Other hormones play an important role too. Particularly in women and menopausal women
Great video
Good questions
I changed my diet to contain more and more high fiber from diverse whole plant foods the past 4 months.
Gradually increased daily fiber from 12g to 25g of fiber a day (RDA for women).
High fiber naturally takes longer for me to eat and is very filling.
I was always a fast eater before.
I also changed from grazing during my 10 hour feeding window to 2 distinct meals with 4 hours between without food.
I also now walk 20 minutes after meals.
This has fixed my IBS.
So then I did a 24-hour water fast 2 weeks ago.
I lost 3 pounds in 2 weeks after a 5 week plateau.
Now I always feel full because of the increased fiber and spacing of meals without snacks.
I'm sure the 24-hour fast helped improve my gut microbiome as well.
Thank you very much! Would you please give me an advice what to do with slow metabolism? Kind regards
I nursed both my children. They are super healthy. NEVER a cavity (37 and 19). Super smart. If you can nurse (I understand some can't), do. I do plan on treating myself to a breast lift though...yeah...😀. Dr. Fung!! So grateful for your simple approach to fasting and healthy eating. God bless you!
check out Dr. Robert Morse.. fantastic speaker and knowledge.. all about fruits and cleaning the body
Nursing is the best. Nursed my son for 2 1/2 years. Was just at night those last few months. I got to be really lazy, while my mom friends were always having to make bottles. I also ate a ton and was super thin. :)
I breastfed my 2 baby boys for around 2 - 3 mths but had to stop for various reasons, one of those being post natal depression. Their main food source was formula milk until they reached 6 months' when I started Baby Led Weaning: so easy & more natural than pureeing solid food all the time. Both are now 14 & 12 and super healthy: none have cavities or fillings even though they eat sweets whenever they want. It's the fact that they have a varied diet (unlimited carbs, fats, fruits & veg but not much meat) & don't eat between meals.
One thing I am sure about is that regardless of type of diet, eating unprocessed or less processed food is very effective in losing healthy specially belly fat.
excellent video as always

Regarding whey powders - there’s a difference between the ones with loads of additives and the one’s that are just the derivatives of dairy ( usually the by product of cheese making). They might be considered “processed” but it’s actually just the bad stuff like milk sugars (lactose) taken out, so I still regard them as a natural food product, provided that the dairy originates from organic grass fed cows. I think those pure whey powders (or collagen powders) can be a useful addition to a healthy diet, especially for those of us who eat less meat.
I made a mix of Whey protein Isolate, Collagen, MCT powder and Inulin to use in my first cup of coffee. The Inulin has helped to correct my irregularity.

how did you do IF before and how did you do it after?
@@nerspal the first one hundred pounds IF worked by going 12: to 12: next day every day eating one large meal at noon then second small meal by 3:
But then nothing has until I started taking a break from it once after every three days I began to get rid of the second hundred pounds
Nothing happened meaning no more weight came off until I discovered that by taking a break I started losing weight again
@@althreedthree9754 What did you do when taking a break and how long before going back to IF?
DO you think eating earlier in the day is better than fasting til say, 6 pm with a 4 or 6 hour window?
Hi Ben, intermittent fasting I do 18/6. I eat clean fresh fruits, fresh veggies, chicken, and fish chicken with no antibiotics are for moans all natural. I drink a gallon of water a day. No processed food no junk food no fast food. It’s all about information. I also have Hashimoto’s/Hypothyroidism. I take great supplement a great quality, probiotic. It’s very simple just to get the inflammation out of your body is clean. Drink your water no snacks no processed foods and if you can try intermittent fasting I really does work. I eat one time at 12 PM and I eat my second and last meal at 5 PM nothing after 6 PM.
Fruits make you gain weight
Inactivity, low nutrition processed foods, poor diet advice abundance, snack culture, prescription medication addiction……. No wonder we got a problem 😪
Vegetables, nuts and seeds contain protein. They always have.
What are the insane weight loss foods?
Yeah. We didn't hear that so this video was click bait 😠
If you are going longer periods of time without eating since you are fasting longer, how can you NOT eat less calories and thus lower your metabolic rate. There is more information needed here. Do you stuff yourself when you do eat so you get enough calories? How can you tell if your metabolism is slowing down? Is there a test?
what about how insulin effects Protein metabolism: (a) it increases the rate of transport of some amino acids into tissues, (b) it increases the rate of protein synthesis in muscle, adipose tissue, liver, and other tissues, (c) it decreases the rate of protein degradation in muscle (and perhaps other tissues)?
There’s no doubt insulin is Important. We need it to live. It’s a growth hormone. Great for when you are wanting to grow. Insulin does it’s job regardless if we eat 2 times a day or 8 times a day. That’s not the point though. It’s the constant bombardment of insulin spikes throughout the 10-14 hour feasting day that’s the problem.
Shorter, to the point info-sessions, please.
Agree with him
What top ten foods to eat? Why did you call your thumbnail that? You mentioned no foods. Your transcript contradicts the title. I'm glad I ran through the transcript and saw it was not mentioned.
What I got from the discussion - the foods to avoid are snacks in between meals, sugar, processed food which includes the white foods - pasta, flour, etc.
Main take away - sugar spikes insulin which causes your body to store fat - avoid alcohol and sugary beverages. All natural orange juice is better than store bought orange juice 😊
People back in the day were much more active as well. Technology did not have a major impact on society as it does today.
I don't think exercise matter much in terms of weight loss. I lost 10kg without exercise just doing 16:8 fasting in 1 month. In the past, i hit the gym 3 times a week and I can't even lost more than 3 kg. Exercising just make you healthier.
I love Dr. Fung's explanation of hormones, and fasting.
Not to nitpick, but I think most people (Americans at least) consume way too much protein to try to extend life & health span as goals. Suggest people check out the Zoe podcasts on protein and the Valter Longo podcasts on Rich Roll (David Sinclair has similar views). Not only is excessive protein just excreted or turned into fat, but it increases all cause mortality by 400% for people consuming meat, and 300% for vegans/vegetarians (they often think they are not getting enough protein, so they over compensate). Not saying this is nutrition gospel (they also say not to skip breakfast which I don't buy at this time), but it's a good idea to look into it. So a big problem may be going overboard on protein (not even including supplements), not just processed, low quality carbohydrates & fats.
Just something to look at is all.
I wish you would ask Dr Fung new questions maybe about his clinical expertise
He is a kidney specialist and treats people with diabetes helps reverse it
During Fasting, Blood Sugar and Insulin levels decrease to allow the use of Stored Fat for energy .This allows us to receive nutrition while we are simultaneously losing weight. Supplements like water / electrolytes /fibre / multivitamin, may be required , also . P.s. , if taking medications , a doctor may need to adjust those meds during Fasting because if blood pressure decreases , Medication for high blood pressure (for example) would need to be lessened.
I used to be overweight and very insulin resistant. It was impossible for me to lose body fat. Eventually, I followed a high fat - low carb diet and I lost 66 lbs (30 kg) in 8 months. It worked very well for me.
Losing weight is incredibly easy if you know what your doing. In my opinion, best diet to reverse insulin resistance is a high protein, high fat, low carb diet.
I have found that Intermittent fasting and keto are a combo that is effective for weight loss and increasing health.Can be done plant based,raw vegan,flexitarian or as a meat eater.Worth checking out.
How would you do keto vegan? Because vegan foods are usually pretty high in carbs right?
Nuts have high fat, but which other foods? Would like to know
@@wiardbarthil7872 Much better for you and the planet to include grass-fed meats and pasture-raised eggs, chicken, and pork. A vegan diet doesn't have everything we need, while people who eat nothing but meat live long and healthy lives. I'm not suggesting that, but including some meat will provide nutrients you can't get anywhere else without supplements-and maybe not even then.
@@wendyscott8425 There’s a book called fiber fueled , it’s an amazing book that encourages eating a variety of food for the health of your gut health.
@@Bellahope11 Sounds like sound advice. It's certainly how I eat.
keto low carb intermittent fasting saving my life
This interviewer was just not listening to what the Dr. Was saying. The Dr talks about insulin spikes and when to eat. Not so much on what foods to eat.
I love Dr Fung...I read The Obesity Code over 2 yrs ago. It helped me lose 80lbs doing IF along with Keto...then low carb...now I do resistance training & follow Dr Ted Naimen's philosophy from his PE:DIET book....protein to energy ratio...Max maybe you can interview him.
Dr. Ted Naiman is the best! I second this request!
He is a good interview +1
Perhaps a slightly oversimplification in his earlier interviews, although now I'm sure he'll have a lot of good things to say
Great content, easy to understand. Easily digested..lol
The title of this video is The Top Foods You Need to Eat to Lose Weight. Okay, so how long does it take to list those foods? About 10 minutes I think. So why is the video over one hour long? Because it's 50 minutes of filler and the top foods are never listed.
Exactly! So it's click bait 😠
So means for example for those Pre d type 2 tat on OMAD daily for the one meal in the morning, can eat tempeh and Shitake mushrooms Goji berries green capsicum cabbage eggplant red onion walnut pecan and Brazil nut ? This is considered one meal, can ? This one meal prepared estimate finish in an hour max
This was a very long way round to drop a few good points. And the ‘melt fat away’ headline us totally misleading based on the content of this podcast. Just be honest and honour the content rather than click bait headlines.
Dr. Fung, can erythritol be used as a sweetener in coffee? Unlike most other sweeteners it does not contain sucrose. I read that Erythritol is made from corn but can be found manufactured from non-GMO corn. It does not cause an increase in blood glucose levels. What is your thought on this? Thank you.
Erythritol is good it won’t affect your insulin
But it can heart attacks. Google it
@@annking1576 no.. that was a lie to explain v a x related heart attacks
I've just seen Max's conversation with Sal Di Stefano. And now this. Jason Fung and Sal are of very divergent points of view. Jason is pro-fasting and anti-calorie counting. Sal says balancing calories is really what matters, no matter where these calories come from. He adds that fasting leads to binging, so there should be no problem how often you eat as long as you manage your calories. Jason says that the hormones that are triggered by specific foods, not so much the calories in these foods, are what really matter.
Max seemed more comfortable and responsive to Sal. They had a steady exchange of similar points of view.
With Jason, he kept his conversation somewhat "distantly cordial."
Especially the part about protein powders vs steak.
I think Max's stance becomes clear when you watch these two conversations one after the other.
What about these sharp "ulcery" pains, which are different from hunger pains?
I did the five meals a day diet and lost a lot of weight. I don’t know how, but it worked very good. I was also working hard full time so I’m sure that was a big part of it.
Some kids don’t have snacks to bring to school and their friends will share with them. The teachers asking for 2 snacks instead of 1 has more reasons than you think. Also the kids will be more active for longer and they may need a recharge 🤣
1500 calories a day is a FEAST to me.
Egg cheese peanuts
What about a type 1 on a pump that doesn't want to eat all day, PREFERS a OMAD, eats around 9 pm so can stay busy all day.
And ppl keep whining to eat so you can take insulin, or a pump injecting insulin and not being hungry.
Just now, there was a commercial contradicting to what you say, specifically contradicting some other arguments of Functional Medicine 😂
Would you please talk about Golo and if one has to be dibetic and when on is not.
Thank you

Hi Max! Pretty good vudeo. Mate you missed the ideal opportunity to talk about the GLYPHOSATE (RoundUp) that is used in the making of flour these days!
They're spraying this crap ON THE CROP ITSELF these days, a week or two before harvest! This spraying of the herbicide just before harvest kills & dries out the far quicker, & gives the farmers more yield per ton.
Apparemtly the 'I'm full now' signal we get from the vagas nerve is attenuated by the glyphosate, so that we overeat. Not to mention other dreadful side effects that have been reported!
So thumbs up & thank you, but no cigar for this one.
2:01 Dr. Walter Longo also advocates not skipping breakfast. Based on statistics on longevity. (He skips lunch instead of breakfast.)
If you starve someone like a POW- yeah, they’ll get really skinny. But, abusively reducing calories also means losing toning muscle, bone loss, collagen loss, immune disorders, and jaundice.
Muscle building, whole natural food, proper fasting- will ensure your body gets lean/toned and operates like a well-oiled machine
Metabolic Cycle:
Morning: light feed, then burn energy/carbs/calories (work/exercise/caloric output)
Noon: low/no-carb feed, then burn energy
Evening: lightest feed, rest/de-stress/restore
Night: Fasting/restoration overnight 6pm-6am
Carb/calorie consumption should always match level of output/work; alongside your specific storage needs (winter outdoor work requires more fat storage [seasonly]; vice versus in summer).
I don’t understand. What do you mean feed then burn? If you’re feeding morning afternoon and night, then when are you fasting? Just 8 hours overnight? That’s not enough for most ppl with severe lR. 16:8 definitely doesn’t work for me
@@ashleyhaley6322 You simply expend/burn everything you eat between meals; then fast overnight. IOW you use up/burn all calories/carbs before they can go into storge as fat (unless/until you need it, as in winter fat for warmth/hibernation).
Please interview Sara Aguilar, she is a well known British Health Anthropologist and also CEO of Keto Supplements which she launched to bring hard to find health products to the EU market for the first time. She launched it to help people with chronic disease.
It would be really interesting to have an interview on:
Keto Supplements and healthy low carb diets for: hormonal health, weight loss, reversing insulin resistance, improving mental health, athletic recovery, cognition etc
There is so much we can learn from our past and hearing a Health Anthropologist’s approach to modern health and increasing healthspan would be really useful.
The keto mindset shift needed in society - the shift in mindset.

Does anyone know if Dr Fung recommends a minimum amount of protein on a OMAD Diet?
What were the foods?
Can someone sum this up?
yes, eat less.
i agree the breakfast cereal companies have cornflakes of interest
Except that people have been eating packaged breakfast cereals since the turn of the century AND THEY WERENT GETTING FAT OR SICK. Only relatively recently has it become a problem.
This study mode of the 70s seem to be widely used across medicine and general science now.
So..., which are these top foods that the title of the video makes reference?
