What he said at the very end, lowering the insulin response which helps avoid weight gain. This is the crux of this video.

🩵

I lost 50 lbs in 6 months at the age of 56. I worked a highly active job and I was on Atkins. It’s not easy to do but I love meat cheese and eggs. It’s even easier today with keto bread & other sugar free products. Now if you’re a picky eater it may not be for you.

Dr put me on Gliclazide I’m changing it to metformin and do my low carb diet with intermittent fasting and come of them

Are you okay? You sound very out of breath

Intermittent fasting for 2 years and OMAD since Jan 2024. Ate my meal about 6 pm yesterday and today so far my readings are 8.6. 9.4 and 9.2. What's up with this I wonder!!!

Did he just claim people eat too much fruit causing fatty liver?!!!😂 people eat TOO LITTLE FRUIT!!!

Wow! This was a very informative video ❤

Found this after beraking a 36 hour fast with : slice of american cheese, 15 pistachios, part of a fatty pork chop, and some green beans. Ooops.

Great info! Thanks!

I found no benefit after a 72 hour fast in terms of energy and focus.

Interesting! BUT, prediabetic here and it just does not work for me. Cold potatoes for example. Nope it raises my blood glucose a lot.. Never noticed a difference. Bottom line maybe great for some one without insulin resistance but you might be fooling people who are diabetic or prediabetic. Always check how you react with the glucometer. Too high? Don't eat it.

Thanks for the video. It's very insightful.

so appreciate this channel thank you

Is fasting for women different as adviced by doctor mindy pelz

I started the fatty liver diet, and intermittent fasting, I've worked up to a couple of water fasts. I've lost 50 lbs, sadly I need to lose at least another 50 lbs to get to just overweight, but the weight is still coming off, so hurray! My problems are, that a lot of the symptoms of fatty liver, have gone, or improved dramatically, which is great,but most of my symptoms that point to some form of auto immune/thyroid problems have stayed the same, even worsening. I started taking suppliments, when I started dieting,iron selenium, magnesium, zinc, etc, but they do not seem to have affected my " thyroid" problems. The basic Thyroid test now comes back as normal. Can anyone relate to this?

i'm one of those people who gains and loses every year, but this time i want to keep it off, so instead of high carb diet, i'm doing high protein, moderate fat. so far, i've noticed i never feel starved like i did on high carb. high carb also tends to be an easy segway for me back to junk food

In the 1970s many moms were overweight (matronly). They smoked and took diet pills (Aids candies) if they were average to slim. My mom stayed tiny by bulimia.

Thank you?😊

I can’t have caffeine - will decaf coffee yield the same beneficial results for fasting?

This makes a lot of sence, im glad i took time to listen to this wonderful doctor. God bless you sir👍

Exactly, all you need is a desktop computer and internet connection and you WON'T need doctors any longer. Plus MOST human health problems are accociated with the 5 forms/stages of diabetes which include most heart disease, most strokes, most kidney problems, much of vision problems, most high blood pressure and high blood sugars. Take away all of diabetes and you can put 50-70% of ALL doctors in the unemployment line. At least 50 billion dollar industry yearly comming into doctors wallets and hospitals. This diabetes problem world wide is BY FAR the most massive health problem in all of human history

I lost 19kg with a low-carb carb diet and still maintained my ideal weight for 2 years since then 😊

Proof of God. Blood sugar management is extremely complex.

Now does one get into your program DR FUNG.

Hi Dr., Can you address high cholesterol and kito diet?

As always , your videos are superb . Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us all . Blessings & respect .

I am happy to hear this. I have been doing IF for about 1 month. My A1C raised by .02 points. I am hopefully it is because my body is using the stored glucose. Is this true? Do you think it could take a month or 2 to use the stored glucose?

Thanks for sharing this. I am signing up to this today. 26/05/2024

I always wonder who is funding these studies… if big Pharma funds the studies..I would never trust them..

I got my high blood 🩸 sugar down with a low carb Carnivore diet.. I would never take medication..

You left out watermelon. Where does watermelon figure in. It does contain a lot of fiber. 😂😂😂

I need to lose 100lbs 😢

Dr.You are great.Love from Pakistan

Dr Fung for president! ❤❤❤❤ he is one of the wisest ones on youtube ❤❤❤

They should give you the hero’s medal! Thanks! For years I had no idea why I kept gaining or couldn’t lose, seemingly eating less and less. It appears that cup of coffee with sugar, around the clock, had a lock on me! Gave that up and things are getting better day by day!

How to prevent gallstones forming from fasting?

Load of quackery

Thank you for this, Dr. Fung! I was so ready to go on Ozempic Cumbersome Paperwork of my Health Insurance stopped me! The Carnivore diet works great for satiety too. Will season my meat with cucurmin/tumeric from now on!

Thank you so much! I already lost 14 pounds in 3 month following your fantastic advices! This is for me, because I dont have so much time and money.

Some people have by their genome a predispostion for obesity. Genetical factors might be quite difficult to fight.

but if you stop eating insulin inducing foods, how far is the thermostat going to drop? how does the body determine its set weight?

Nobody needs drugs to reduce sugars in the body. Just stop consuming lots of sugars and unhealthy foods and drinks!!!

Thank you for educating us Doc....

Is that safe to have onezepic because I got fatty liver and pre diabetic please reply

Agreed 100%

Well, if you are 60+ you will start losing muscle mass whether you eat a lot or start fasting. You will need your proteins (and use it in your daily exercise) in order to build your sceletal muscles and stay fit and healthy while you grow older. Long time fasting appears to destroy what you maybe never will be able to build up again.

Thank you for sharing Doc.....

Amazing info, thanks! PS: Can we get a link to the articles?
