Mr. Ohsumi (a biologist, if im not wrong) actually won a Nobel prize in 2016 for discovering the concept of autophagy. His research started way back in the 1990s. Autophagy is indeed a very important concept that everybody needs to know. Thanks Dr. Berg for the explanation..☺️
@@saturnslipper Depends how much you lose and how long have you been fat. I am 188cm and had over 110kg for 10 years, my highest was 118kg. I am now, thanks to fasting, down to 85kg and still have loose skin, contemplating going for a tummy tuck
It would be more accurate to say he got the Nobel for his work on autophagy rather than for discovering it. Autophagy was discovered in 1963 by Christian de Duve who won the Nobel in 1974: when Ohsumi began to work on autophagy in 1988 autophagy was already known for 25 years !!! In 2016 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to Yoshinori Ohsumi for the discovery of the molecular principles governing autophagy. Discovering autophagy and discovering the molecular principles governing autophagy are two different things ;)

@@Luvmygrands10 I've been intermittent fasting for almost 5 years & never been breakfast eater. I started while traveling around the world & annoyed to take several hours for lunch, so started fasting with one meal a day. I've done longer (10 day) fasts. Eating 3 meals a day is just a habit, our bodies aren't built for that. Start slowly 1 day at a time, keep busy, drink water or tea when you have hunger pangs, in half an hour they go away, you'll start burning fat and have so much energy you won't believe it.

@@kaykay865 yeah, but, the ratio of dry fasting vs wet fasting is 3:1. and you do it 30 days continuously.

Perfect, perfect. I’ve been following the intermittent fasting lifestyle for 18 months now. I feel fantastic, my Spring hay fever has almost gone, I don’t get full blown colds, and I have lots more energy and also I walk 1hr a day. Thanks Dr Berg for all your informative information.
I noticed I stopped getting fully sick too. Like I'll start feeling the discomfort in my nasal cavity, but it never gets to the throat before it goes away.
Thank you Dr. Berg. Been watching you for years. Now I'm on my 3rd day of a 7 day water fast. Age 46. You have helped me out a lot over the years! Thank You! 👍
@@سميرابوسالم-غ6ع I felt good. Funny how that everything that bothered my digestive system was gone when I went back to eating. I all of a sudden had no issues with milk/cheese dairy. Or issues with hot sauce. Even my heartburn went fully away for a few weeks even after I stopped taking my meds for it. Ofcourse everything came back as it was a temp fix. But I feel it could be fixed fully with doing fasting more often.
Keto is nice, but the fact of not having a fruit for the rest of my life is scaring. Papaya is so good. Also lentils and chickpeas are wonderful. I tend to stick to low carbs instead, although trying to maintain in certain meals the keto concept.
@@AP-dj2kv I agree that there’s a lot of amazing food out there. When there’s something I really want, I eat it. I just work it into my daily carbs. For me my fibromyalgia pain comes back after a couple of weeks of higher carbs.
Very interesting. Back in 2005, I heard Tony Robbins talking about how sugar causes acid and acid causes chronic illness - including cancer. The statement that hit home was - ''Cancer can only survive in an acid environment''. Our bodies struggle to keep us in a slightly alkaline state, but a bad diet and polluted environment makes this very difficult. All of this acid/alkaline stuff ties in perfectly with the Keto lifestyle and the absolute game-changer is intermittent fasting.
This was some of the benefits I personally got by fasting 5 times per week for 1 year. Lost 30 kgs No more eczema Lower back pain gone for good No more bloating Hair growth Clearer skin Better focus Lower stress Less irritating No more tiredness Never Hungary Anymore No more colds
Thank you. I've only been fasting for one month ( since 2nd January) and I do feel much better. It's really good to see people post some long term effects.
did you try losing weight a different way before? I’m wondering if IF might be that effective, because it makes it easier to maintain a calorie deficit. Reducing calories while eating 3 meals a day might be more difficult, because you’ll feel less satisfied after each meal as you had to eat less than you’re used to, while IF allows you to eat the usual amount (if not a little bit more) but just for less meals in total. If that makes any sense lol
@@MauriceGucci Yes, what you said makes complete sense. I tried many diets like cutting sugar entirely, eating 5 meals a day with food that taste like nothing and not enjoyable. I also tried pills, the YOLI program, doing lots of cardio. It all came back! I wanted to eat well and eat foods that taste good without feeling guilty or hungry an hour later. IF worked the best for me and it keeps the weight off. Plus I enjoy eating my 2 meals a day withoutbhaving to compromise good tasting food, or eating the foods I love! 🤗
@@qcrctgavarcesxrfab8015 I've reached my ideal weight and BMI for a while now. I've been doing this for almost 4 years. The obvious results happen physically and immediately like in a month, so you're on the right track. Be consistent and persistent. Good luck!
Why are we not told about this stuff like anywhere.?! I have never heard of this subject and I’ve worked in healthcare all my working life since the 1970s!! Thank you so much!
Excellent presentation Dr Berg. The facts you brought forth can not only improve health, but save lives. A simple test that everyone should do - pick a day - my day starts Friday evening, I eat my last meal - whatever I want (keto/carnivore), then I don't eat again until Sunday morning. If I want a coffee or tea, go ahead, but avoid calories. Sunday morning have your first light meal, by noon you will feel like a king!... or Queen... try it just once... I used to do this each and every week, it became a very natural thing to do. I now do this a couple times a month as I'm building muscle and training for more strenuous calisthenics and crossfit .
I can watch his videos like I’m binge watching a tv series it’s nuts. I’m down 135 lbs in 10 months because of this man. My father has also conquered type 2 diabetes in the past 10 months as well because of his information.
I have become a big fan of the amazing benefits of fasting since I first saw your video. I'm into my third week, although I've not lost much weight yet my midriff looks smaller. I am amazed at how my skin looks. It radiated as if I've turned back twenty years in a short time as a result of fasting and ketogenic diet.ive even ditched the bad habit of snacking and list my sugar cravings. Fabulously informative videos with good practical ways of feeling and looking good!
This is key information to an actual problem and its future consequences, for those who understand that's a matter of life. Thank you again, Dr. Berg, you are saving lives in great measure! 🙏💖
Dr Berg is so good at explaining this stuff as if he's speaking to a 5th grader. I am not a 5th grader but i appreciate it very much because it allows me to passively listen yet still absorb the information.
I always love watching Dr. Berg. It helps me keep going with my fasting and keto diet but more importantly with keeping my body as healthy as I can. Thank you so much for another very informative video. I do intermittent fasting but I haven't tried autophagy yet (my brother is on his third day today). Now I'm ready to take my fasting to a higher level. :) :) :)
I am duo-located in London and Bangalore, a big fan of fasting, driven from both diet & religious orientation. Dr Berg's reinforcements in terms of recommendations and advice are incredibly motivating.
Dr Berg is so inspirational and very informative. Started fasting 40 days ago and better Dr Berg and Dr Mindy Pelz both such a wealth of knowledge!! ❤❤❤🎉
Autophagy can be a game changer in the science of cancer ...in other words we could have preventions from cancer rather than a cure ..makes a lot sense if people make life time changes in there lives.ie.change there diets not eat junk food and lots of excuses...etc....but in fairness not a lot of people do not have that discipline ...autophagy sounds brilliant in science but to put in to action is anyone's choice ...it's my choice to intermittent fasting and do three days fasting 💪 with drinking water and some vitamins supplements........it works I have been thiis strong or fit 💪 in all my Whole life and I'm in my 50ssss
Hey Dr Berg, When you say you need fuel and it produces oxygen.. would a cancer cel cause you not to sweat during exercise? I randomly became unable to sweat, and I would instead breakout in hives. Went to many doctors that didn’t know what was going on, and one diagnosed me with exercised induced hives. I found your channel and did two 3 day fasts. I am completely cured and enjoy an active lifestyle again. Don’t know exactly how this happened but I am assuming the autophagy got rid of the bad cells that were causing this. Love your channel, and I really think the information I learned from you saved my life.
Why aren't more doctors trained in health from this nutritional point of view? So many human problems can be avoided or repaired by simply understanding how the body works, what it needs, what to eat and what to avoid. This should be basic common human knowledge from an early age.
We _had_ a simple answer for four decades, and it was wrong-headed: too many calories in, too few calories out. As it turns out, to have a vigorous and robust metabolism, it also matters when and how you consume those calories. This is a great deal _less_ simple, but far closer to reality. You're using "simple" here as a synonym for nicely packaged at the center of your present understanding. Most people do. You're using "simple" as the original +1 works for me, adored by those whose believe that simplicity should be simple. Right. That's why in the true quest for simplicity, it takes an Einstein to show us how to do it properly. The false belief that simplicity ought to be simple is the reason why society (in the large) fell for the phoney explanation that the core underlying problem was merely calories in, calories out, while evidence amassed for decades that the majority of people subjecting themselves to simplistic calorie-restriction diets-especially as packaged by Weight Watchers-ended up on a long-term treadmill of getting fatter and fatter. But blame this not on Weight Watchers, but on the faulty willpower of the 80%, because blame is the ultimate rescue of a failed oversimplification, painful rethinking not required.
Just started my weekly 48 hr fast...had a false start, forgot not to take collagen powder in my lemon drink, but back on track. I love how I feel after a fast, inflammatory areas gone.
Been eating 1 meal a day for 2 weeks+ now. Diet is kinda keto if not exactly keto. Lost 11 pounds. Also doing hiit 5 times a week. After 2 weeks, this is easily doable. Warning- one day at a party I ate some carbs- rice, oily food and alcohol. I was hungry a few hours later. Basically, try to stay away from carbs and sugar.
Thanks Doc, for another awesome video, they’re all usually great and helpful. 🤗 This one absolutely amazed me about how fantastic our bodies are 🧐 Along with your other videos it gave me more understanding of what happens when we eat refined Frankenfoods and the damage we cause them after years of eating rubbish. 😖 Onwards and upwards!!! 😘
This is such a powerful motivation not to eat sweet things or sugar! Lost a friend this year to liver cancer. She was trim and looked fit but loved eating sweet things: sweet tea, asian cuisine, breakfast sandwiches, hamburgers, pastries, take out restaurant meals and chocolate. All of these foods have added sugar and she kept feeding her cancer, fertilizing it until she was consumed by it. 😫
I was intermittent fasting in prison for four years and didn't know. Our meals were so small that we would skip or save breakfast and have it for dinner. .thats why people who come home from jail look so young 50 years old look 20
Here's what surprised me. After YEARS of suffering from various symptoms and digestive problems, I actually, legitimately feel amazing by going low carb, adding digestive enzymes and considerable high quality supplements, and intermittent fasting 16/8 5 days a week. Thanks Dr. Berg!
@@LtdMusic Serrapeptase was a huge help! I now take serrapeptase only occasionally when sinus or digestive problems flare up and 50k iu vit d every 7-10 days, magnesium and vit k with the vit d. Collagen helps repair the tissue and is good in the coffee. Of course take vit c too here arms there.
A 24-hour fast was all it took to radically lighten my eye floaters. I,ve been fasting for months but my eyesight didn't really improve till I started extending my fasts. I'm thoroughly impressed and my tooth sensitivity improved too. Autophagy doing its magic😊
Wow, such a GREAT video, you're like an angel, and the world needs more people like you, who are serious about wellness!!! You also explain things perfectly, which is super helpful, too!!! I'm going to work on the things you spoke about!!! Most of them I already knew about, but, I respond well to hearing them again and getting back in the mode, which I'm often too distracted to do on my own. Your videos really help, to keep me grounded and visualizing my next steps. You're fantastic, thank you very, very much!!!!
Hope they will have research on reversing different deseases. 1. Atherosclerosis 2. Kidney Desease 3. Retinopathy 4. Neuropathy 5. Fatty Liver desease 6. Pancreatitis, etc
Thank you so much Dr.Berg..Watching your videos I’ve been doing I.F with low carb intake..So far I lost 12 pounds and I feel great already..Bless you ☺️You make it so easy to understand..My Dad actually recommended me to watch your videos .
Can you do a video on the coronavirus? We don’t know much about it, but if there’s anyone I trust to talk about the basic way viruses work and how we can defend ourselves against them , it’s you Dr. Berg.
Im on day 3 of a 72 hour fast and Im already down 10lbs! The main reason is for this beautiful cell regeneration "autophagy" process. It's magic! You can feel the mental clarity after a couple days! Great to reset your body once every few months. I am trying to lose weight at the same time, double bonus! Will be sticking to OMAD afterwards 👌🏻
Thank you always for everything you're doing to improve your fellow human's lives. Seriously, we cannot thank you enough! 🙏💗 I just went 22 hours fasting, not eating even the slightest snack. It is interesting that I came home in the middle of last night from work, feeling just a bit of hunger when I went to bed - yet when I got up today I didn't feel any hunger at all and went about my day for 5 hrs longer, and could have gone probably all day today without eating. I figure this is because my body is very well fat adapted, even though I've been allowing myself a bit more carbs per day, (of course mindful to not going over 50 grams), since I've gotten down to the weight that I want to be almost 10 mos ago. Is this correct?
Thank you Dr Berg for referring to the benefits of fasting so often in your great videos. As someone who read the books of the 3 great religions, the Quran is one that taught the importance of fasting over 1000 years ago.
Nothing is as important as a correct diet. Nothing. You must cut down on carbs, avoid processed foods and "vegetable" oil. If you don't, nothing else you do will make much difference. You ARE what you eat. The short time you are fasting will not adversely harm you.
Thank you so much for speaking on the topic of autophagy. I have Endometrial Cancer, having three treatments of vaginal vault brachytherapy, which I am less than happy about. I choose to eat a plant based high fiber low fat, low protein diet, using organic non GMO foods, no sugar, no processed foods. The quandry is that some doctors say that autophagy is a two- edged sword and can increase cancer growth, as well as decrease its growth, however I can find no information which discusses to what extent, or if cancer growth happens more or less during autophagy. Please would you elaborate on this topic? I intend continuing my 72 hr water fasts, because already my body feels more alive than it has in years, so I must be doing some good!
When I was a kid, my mom was diagnosed with lung cancer that has spread. She then stopped eating entirely and died many months later at 67lbs. Autophagy may be great at preventing, not so great at curing.
@@TurquoiseSunsets When she was diagnosed she stated "I will not die of cancer". She never ate another bite of food after that and she didn't die of cancer. She litterally beat cancer, to her own death. By that time it was everywhere.
Dr. Berg is like a cheerleader for fasting. Whenever you feel like quitting just watch a few of his videos you will never wanna eat again lol.

@@Drberg Sir,Kind greetings from Fiji out here in the South Pacific..Thank you for your lifesaving presentations..Sir,I am now into my 06th week of 5 days continous Water Fast-Mondays-Fridays,OMAD from mid-afternoon Friday-mid-afternoon Sunday & move on to the next week..No sugar,no carbs,no processed foods..The benefits have been immense on my general wellbeing..You are indeed God sent..God's continous blessings..

This is EXACTLY the reason we leave crop fields lay fallow for a time..our bodies are no different!
An Gar, so true. 99% of people today don’t even know fallow means. 🌱
They now know a cover crop is more effective in restoring the soil. Dust Bowl anyone?
That’s what intellectuals looks like kids ^
Wow great metaphor!
Perfect, perfect. I’ve been following the intermittent fasting lifestyle for 18 months now. I feel fantastic, my Spring hay fever has almost gone, I don’t get full blown colds, and I have lots more energy and also I walk 1hr a day. Thanks Dr Berg for all your informative information.
water fasting or dry fasting ?
Hi! How many times do you eat a day? What hours? Can you please explain how you did it?
I noticed I stopped getting fully sick too. Like I'll start feeling the discomfort in my nasal cavity, but it never gets to the throat before it goes away.
..
Thank you Dr. Berg. Been watching you for years. Now I'm on my 3rd day of a 7 day water fast. Age 46. You have helped me out a lot over the years! Thank You! 👍
How did you feel after water fasting?
@@سميرابوسالم-غ6ع I felt good. Funny how that everything that bothered my digestive system was gone when I went back to eating. I all of a sudden had no issues with milk/cheese dairy. Or issues with hot sauce. Even my heartburn went fully away for a few weeks even after I stopped taking my meds for it. Ofcourse everything came back as it was a temp fix. But I feel it could be fixed fully with doing fasting more often.
Finally made it to OMAD. So happy with ketosis. I’ll never go back!
What's the fat to protein ratio to eat on omad ?
@@Bilcat I’m not sure. I know I have to keep my carbs under 20 grams a day. I’m guessing about 70-80% fat.
Keto is nice, but the fact of not having a fruit for the rest of my life is scaring. Papaya is so good. Also lentils and chickpeas are wonderful. I tend to stick to low carbs instead, although trying to maintain in certain meals the keto concept.
@@AP-dj2kv Keto is mostly used by people who want to loose weight fast
@@AP-dj2kv I agree that there’s a lot of amazing food out there. When there’s something I really want, I eat it. I just work it into my daily carbs. For me my fibromyalgia pain comes back after a couple of weeks of higher carbs.
Very interesting.
Back in 2005, I heard Tony Robbins talking about how sugar causes acid and acid causes chronic illness - including cancer.
The statement that hit home was - ''Cancer can only survive in an acid environment''.
Our bodies struggle to keep us in a slightly alkaline state, but a bad diet and polluted environment makes this very difficult.
All of this acid/alkaline stuff ties in perfectly with the Keto lifestyle and the absolute game-changer is intermittent fasting.
I'm glad that I go to the gym regularly. receive full benefit autophagy
This was some of the benefits I personally got by fasting 5 times per week for 1 year.
Lost 30 kgs
No more eczema
Lower back pain gone for good
No more bloating
Hair growth
Clearer skin
Better focus
Lower stress
Less irritating
No more tiredness
Never Hungary Anymore
No more colds
Hair growth?
Did you eat carbs or were you on keto?
Thank you. I've only been fasting for one month ( since 2nd January) and I do feel much better. It's really good to see people post some long term effects.
What wrong with Hungary 🇭🇺?
Hi! So glad you are doing well! I would like to start fasting…..so how many hours out of 24 did you fast?
I lost 87 pounds with Intermittent Fasting and autophagy. Trust me, this process works. I'm now normal BMI and hardly get fatigue or severely sick!
did you try losing weight a different way before?
I’m wondering if IF might be that effective, because it makes it easier to maintain a calorie deficit. Reducing calories while eating 3 meals a day might be more difficult, because you’ll feel less satisfied after each meal as you had to eat less than you’re used to, while IF allows you to eat the usual amount (if not a little bit more) but just for less meals in total. If that makes any sense lol
@@MauriceGucci Yes, what you said makes complete sense. I tried many diets like cutting sugar entirely, eating 5 meals a day with food that taste like nothing and not enjoyable. I also tried pills, the YOLI program, doing lots of cardio. It all came back! I wanted to eat well and eat foods that taste good without feeling guilty or hungry an hour later. IF worked the best for me and it keeps the weight off. Plus I enjoy eating my 2 meals a day withoutbhaving to compromise good tasting food, or eating the foods I love! 🤗
How long? Im in 6 weeks now. Thanks
@@qcrctgavarcesxrfab8015 I've reached my ideal weight and BMI for a while now. I've been doing this for almost 4 years. The obvious results happen physically and immediately like in a month, so you're on the right track. Be consistent and persistent. Good luck!
@@RetroXRicardo it worked for me too, for two years, but weight came back even though I am respecting 18:6 schedule. Perhaps my body got used to it.
Why are we not told about this stuff like anywhere.?! I have never heard of this subject and I’ve worked in healthcare all my working life since the 1970s!! Thank you so much!
I'm on my 5th day of extended water fast. Not sure how long I will last but this is good information.
No words to thank you enough. Im sure that you have saved many lives.
Excellent presentation Dr Berg. The facts you brought forth can not only improve health, but save lives. A simple test that everyone should do - pick a day - my day starts Friday evening, I eat my last meal - whatever I want (keto/carnivore), then I don't eat again until Sunday morning. If I want a coffee or tea, go ahead, but avoid calories. Sunday morning have your first light meal, by noon you will feel like a king!... or Queen... try it just once... I used to do this each and every week, it became a very natural thing to do. I now do this a couple times a month as I'm building muscle and training for more strenuous calisthenics and crossfit .
Yes one day fasting, it's great. I would eat an orange the next morning and it was the best tasting orange ever.
I can watch his videos like I’m binge watching a tv series it’s nuts. I’m down 135 lbs in 10 months because of this man.
My father has also conquered type 2 diabetes in the past 10 months as well because of his information.
so true! He is legend!!!!
Great Job.
Keep up The Good Work.
that's wonderful to hear
God bless you both!
Type 2 diabetes is reversible which most people don't realize, congrats
I have become a big fan of the amazing benefits of fasting since I first saw your video. I'm into my third week, although I've not lost much weight yet my midriff looks smaller. I am amazed at how my skin looks. It radiated as if I've turned back twenty years in a short time as a result of fasting and ketogenic diet.ive even ditched the bad habit of snacking and list my sugar cravings. Fabulously informative videos with good practical ways of feeling and looking good!
Love it! Same here! I've been getting stopped lately by strangers. people telling how gorgeous I look. Maybe glowing from fasting 😃
Love your videos. Wish more traditional practicing doctors would wake up and start thinking outside the box.
I am sharing your videos with people like a mad man.
Thank You for this brilliance.
Thank you for sharing!!
You give me so much hope Dr,,,especially in this pandemic .,,,,i appreciate you Dr.🙌
Such a informative video, :) I had cancer myself, I'm also big fan of fasten, thank you for your incredible work, greetings from Germany
This is key information to an actual problem and its future consequences, for those who understand that's a matter of life. Thank you again, Dr. Berg, you are saving lives in great measure! 🙏💖
Dr Berg is so good at explaining this stuff as if he's speaking to a 5th grader. I am not a 5th grader but i appreciate it very much because it allows me to passively listen yet still absorb the information.
Golden question to ask yourself starting from today
What would I be risking if I did some of the things that are outside of my comfort zone?
I am feeling very good fasting 5 days a week. Must be autophagy.
3 days : 16/8 hrs (workdays)
1 day : Full 24 hrs(Saturday)
1 day :20-23 hr (Sunday)
Dr. Berg, thank you for spreading such important knowledge! You are such a blessing to all of us. (And your wife is a blessing, too!)
It heals my 💔 dr berg is awesome!
Anyone fasting today?
Amen
I’ve been doing 16-8 . It helps me not eat so much.
Yes me 22 hrs
Yep, into 70 hours
I'm in 42 hours
Lovely information. I recently discovered the Doctor that he mentions(Thomas Seyfried). Brilliant guy. Everything is coming full circle.
I've heard of this cancer /sugar connection. Great explanation 👍
Very pleased to see 0:06 your videos posted more frequently again on RUclips lately!
Thanks for noticing that. Have a nice day!
I always love watching Dr. Berg. It helps me keep going with my fasting and keto diet but more importantly with keeping my body as healthy as I can. Thank you so much for another very informative video. I do intermittent fasting but I haven't tried autophagy yet (my brother is on his third day today). Now I'm ready to take my fasting to a higher level. :) :) :)
Good job. Keep up the good work. You'll get there eventually.
Who is here after Dr.berg recent vedio,,,,,,God bless our Doctor long life and best 👌 👍 health.
Wow! This video is gem. Super informative and useful yet so short and easy to understand even for me that isn't speak English daily. Thanks dr. Berg!
This is the only doctor I listen to. LOVE this guy💯
Absolutely incredible work.. autophagy is absolutely amazing, thank you for these videos.
Phenomenal teaching, clear, concise, and forever giving...God bless you and your family...
Glad you like my presentation. Thanks for watching the video.
I am duo-located in London and Bangalore, a big fan of fasting, driven from both diet & religious orientation.
Dr Berg's reinforcements in terms of recommendations and advice are incredibly motivating.
Dr Berg is so inspirational and very informative. Started fasting 40 days ago and better Dr Berg and Dr Mindy Pelz both such a wealth of knowledge!! ❤❤❤🎉
Autophagy can be a game changer in the science of cancer ...in other words we could have preventions from cancer rather than a cure ..makes a lot sense if people make life time changes in there lives.ie.change there diets not eat junk food and lots of excuses...etc....but in fairness not a lot of people do not have that discipline ...autophagy sounds brilliant in science but to put in to action is anyone's choice ...it's my choice to intermittent fasting and do three days fasting 💪 with drinking water and some vitamins supplements........it works I have been thiis strong or fit 💪 in all my
Whole life and I'm in my 50ssss
Dr berg is absolutely brilliant
Hey Dr Berg, When you say you need fuel and it produces oxygen.. would a cancer cel cause you not to sweat during exercise? I randomly became unable to sweat, and I would instead breakout in hives. Went to many doctors that didn’t know what was going on, and one diagnosed me with exercised induced hives. I found your channel and did two 3 day fasts. I am completely cured and enjoy an active lifestyle again. Don’t know exactly how this happened but I am assuming the autophagy got rid of the bad cells that were causing this. Love your channel, and I really think the information I learned from you saved my life.
The theorised link between Fasting and cancer is fascinating and potentially life-saving !! Thks Dr Berg
Fasting is now my way of life 💪💥
You’re the best doctor, understandable, excellent information, keep doing, good job. 👍
Happy you found it useful! Be well!

Why aren't more doctors trained in health from this nutritional point of view? So many human problems can be avoided or repaired by simply understanding how the body works, what it needs, what to eat and what to avoid. This should be basic common human knowledge from an early age.
I agree. Most doctors today are trained on what medications to give and that's it, I think we all encountered doctors like this during our life
It is a delight to watch you present.❤
Thank you. Hope you are learning a lot here.
When you got a simpler answer, you know that it's closer to the truth.
We _had_ a simple answer for four decades, and it was wrong-headed: too many calories in, too few calories out. As it turns out, to have a vigorous and robust metabolism, it also matters when and how you consume those calories. This is a great deal _less_ simple, but far closer to reality.
You're using "simple" here as a synonym for nicely packaged at the center of your present understanding. Most people do. You're using "simple" as the original +1 works for me, adored by those whose believe that simplicity should be simple. Right. That's why in the true quest for simplicity, it takes an Einstein to show us how to do it properly.
The false belief that simplicity ought to be simple is the reason why society (in the large) fell for the phoney explanation that the core underlying problem was merely calories in, calories out, while evidence amassed for decades that the majority of people subjecting themselves to simplistic calorie-restriction diets-especially as packaged by Weight Watchers-ended up on a long-term treadmill of getting fatter and fatter.
But blame this not on Weight Watchers, but on the faulty willpower of the 80%, because blame is the ultimate rescue of a failed oversimplification, painful rethinking not required.
Just started my weekly 48 hr fast...had a false start, forgot not to take collagen powder in my lemon drink, but back on track. I love how I feel after a fast, inflammatory areas gone.
Been eating 1 meal a day for 2 weeks+ now. Diet is kinda keto if not exactly keto. Lost 11 pounds. Also doing hiit 5 times a week. After 2 weeks, this is easily doable.
Warning- one day at a party I ate some carbs- rice, oily food and alcohol. I was hungry a few hours later. Basically, try to stay away from carbs and sugar.
Just be careful because you're going to be losing a lot of muscles.
I never clicked so fast as I see Dr. Berg uploads another video.
Thanks Doc, for another awesome video, they’re all usually great and helpful. 🤗 This one absolutely amazed me about how fantastic our bodies are 🧐 Along with your other videos it gave me more understanding of what happens when we eat refined Frankenfoods and the damage we cause them after years of eating rubbish. 😖 Onwards and upwards!!! 😘
Thank you Dr Berg ! You are reaching and helping so many improve health.
Thank you. That actually meant a lot.
This is such a powerful motivation not to eat sweet things or sugar! Lost a friend this year to liver cancer. She was trim and looked fit but loved eating sweet things: sweet tea, asian cuisine, breakfast sandwiches, hamburgers, pastries, take out restaurant meals and chocolate. All of these foods have added sugar and she kept feeding her cancer, fertilizing it until she was consumed by it. 😫
In Canada?
love the white board. seeing your chest touches my heart chakra. love the use of your hands and the underlining! plus the content.
I was intermittent fasting in prison for four years and didn't know. Our meals were so small that we would skip or save breakfast and have it for dinner. .thats why people who come home from jail look so young 50 years old look 20
So much information broken down in plain and simple terms. Thanks so much.
Here's what surprised me. After YEARS of suffering from various symptoms and digestive problems, I actually, legitimately feel amazing by going low carb, adding digestive enzymes and considerable high quality supplements, and intermittent fasting 16/8 5 days a week. Thanks Dr. Berg!
Which supplements did/do you use and to what benefit? Thanks
@@LtdMusic Serrapeptase was a huge help! I now take serrapeptase only occasionally when sinus or digestive problems flare up and 50k iu vit d every 7-10 days, magnesium and vit k with the vit d. Collagen helps repair the tissue and is good in the coffee. Of course take vit c too here arms there.
@@LtdMusic when things were really bad though I used cholestyramine with success. I do not have BAM but for some reason it still helped.
.
soooooo many people need to get on board with this.
Thank you, Dr. Berg! Can autophagy also help ARTHRITIS? Can it help chondral (cartilage) damage? I'd love if you could do a video about that.
Great LEARNING! 👍 GREAT Presentations DR BERG.THANK YOU! GOD BLESS YOU 🙌 🙏
Thanks for the feedback! Stay safe and healthy!
A 24-hour fast was all it took to radically lighten my eye floaters. I,ve been fasting for months but my eyesight didn't really improve till I started extending my fasts. I'm thoroughly impressed and my tooth sensitivity improved too. Autophagy doing its magic😊
Wonderful!
Have your eye floaters completely gone away now or has it just lighten them?
Wow, such a GREAT video, you're like an angel, and the world needs more people like you, who are serious about wellness!!! You also explain things perfectly, which is super helpful, too!!! I'm going to work on the things you spoke about!!! Most of them I already knew about, but, I respond well to hearing them again and getting back in the mode, which I'm often too distracted to do on my own. Your videos really help, to keep me grounded and visualizing my next steps. You're fantastic, thank you very, very much!!!!
One thing I have noticed while in autophagy is that eye floaters appear to be dissolving and going away.
Hope they will have research on reversing different deseases.
1. Atherosclerosis
2. Kidney Desease
3. Retinopathy
4. Neuropathy
5. Fatty Liver desease
6. Pancreatitis, etc
How do you know when you are in an autophagy stage?
I love fasting and always feel great after. It amazes me how many people cannot give up food to benefit their bodies. 🥰'👍👍
Dr.Berg is autophagysing my knowledge on health big time..
He's a great teacher and truth teller!
I am watching this as I am on 24 hours fasting .. currently my body undergoing autophagy phase (15 hours past)
Thank you so much Dr.Berg..Watching your videos I’ve been doing I.F with low carb intake..So far I lost 12 pounds and I feel great already..Bless you ☺️You make it so easy to understand..My Dad actually recommended me to watch your videos .
What would you regard as low carbs anything under 100 gram?
Can you do a video on the coronavirus? We don’t know much about it, but if there’s anyone I trust to talk about the basic way viruses work and how we can defend ourselves against them , it’s you Dr. Berg.
He already has just recently.. look up his videos
Im on day 3 of a 72 hour fast and Im already down 10lbs! The main reason is for this beautiful cell regeneration "autophagy" process. It's magic! You can feel the mental clarity after a couple days! Great to reset your body once every few months. I am trying to lose weight at the same time, double bonus! Will be sticking to OMAD afterwards 👌🏻
Thank you always for everything you're doing to improve your fellow human's lives. Seriously, we cannot thank you enough! 🙏💗
I just went 22 hours fasting, not eating even the slightest snack.
It is interesting that I came home in the middle of last night from work, feeling just a bit of hunger when I went to bed - yet when I got up today I didn't feel any hunger at all and went about my day for 5 hrs longer, and could have gone probably all day today without eating.
I figure this is because my body is very well fat adapted, even though I've been allowing myself a bit more carbs per day, (of course mindful to not going over 50 grams), since I've gotten down to the weight that I want to be almost 10 mos ago. Is this correct?
Wow what wonderful & valuable information Dr. Berg! You are a treasure to mankind!
Glad you found it useful! Thank you for your support!
Thank you Dr Berg for referring to the benefits of fasting so often in your great videos. As someone who read the books of the 3 great religions, the Quran is one that taught the importance of fasting over 1000 years ago.
Yes and the Bible 2000 years ago. And so many more ancient teachings.
Dr. Thank you so much for all the great knowledge you pass onto us,!
Dr Berg I have question does our blood levels & vitamins fall if we do intermittent fasting . Please if possible make a video on that .
I have same question
Nothing is as important as a correct diet. Nothing. You must cut down on carbs, avoid processed foods and "vegetable" oil. If you don't, nothing else you do will make much difference. You ARE what you eat. The short time you are fasting will not adversely harm you.
will do
Thank You sooo much Dr Berg waiting for your video 😊.
Ur body absorbs better after a fast... so you need fast to get good nutrition PARADOX 🦉
my best Dr on Earth
Another deep enlightenment of silence,
My cells and good Bacteria Say thanks to you Dr. Berg
Thank you so much for speaking on the topic of autophagy. I have Endometrial Cancer, having three treatments of vaginal vault brachytherapy, which I am less than happy about. I choose to eat a plant based high fiber low fat, low protein diet, using organic non GMO foods, no sugar, no processed foods. The quandry is that some doctors say that autophagy is a two- edged sword and can increase cancer growth, as well as decrease its growth, however I can find no information which discusses to what extent, or if cancer growth happens more or less during autophagy. Please would you elaborate on this topic? I intend continuing my 72 hr water fasts, because already my body feels more alive than it has in years, so I must be doing some good!
When I was a kid, my mom was diagnosed with lung cancer that has spread. She then stopped eating entirely and died many months later at 67lbs. Autophagy may be great at preventing, not so great at curing.
Sadly, it sounds like a lot was contributing to her death like poor nutrition. Sorry for your loss.
Was she doing Chemo or taking meds?
@@BrndshTV Both and she had some really hard core stuff too.
@@TurquoiseSunsets When she was diagnosed she stated "I will not die of cancer". She never ate another bite of food after that and she didn't die of cancer. She litterally beat cancer, to her own death.
By that time it was everywhere.
@@datsuntoyy WELL THATS WHAT KILLED HER THOSE MEDS N POOR NUTRITION
