This video deserves a billion views. Imagine the improved health that can be achieved across the world if people can learn this and apply to their daily lives.
Loving these videos. Glad to see this stuff finally getting mainstream attention from the medical community. The average doctor is still working on outdated data.
@@DoctorMikeHansen Dr Mike hi from Cyprus. Did you do lessons about all of these biology at the university? If yes why them the doctors themselves don't remember them so they don't practice them for their self's, so they have the same health problems as the rest of the people?!!!
OHMYGOODNESS I am forwarding this to EVERYONE who doesn’t understand why I fast. Thank you soooo much. I will prolly need to rewatch this myself a dozen times. Thank you so much.
I couldn't be more impressed with this fantastic explanation of how and why we should be intermittent fasting. Geez, and here I thought you'd gone Hollywood, but this is so clear to anybody. Such a good job!
This was the best video you've ever done and probably the most complete and logically presented video on overall healthy living I've ever seen. I've shared with my family and very much appreciate what you do for us!! Thank you.
The way he is presenting complex things so simply and with fun, this is simply outstanding. I really like his approach. Being a doctor in a clinical field he's actually working for the public health. That's another great thing.
Brilliant brilliant explanation!!! Have listened to it 3times for it to go in ! Thank you. Just watched your tests after your Mac Donald’s onslaught! Very good to know x
Brilliant video. I fast for 21 hours once or twice a week and although I had trouble following the details I do feel better for fasting and, of course, my food bills are lower.
SARDINES ARE VERY HIGH IN OMEGA 3. They are also very high in protien and many other eseential nutrients. They are CHEAP when compared to BEEF and other high protien foods. They are extremely low in mercury compared to other seafoods.
Dr. Hansen! You are crushing it with the video style you've adopted. I started following during Covid while I was gathering different perspectives and the content was good. Now the content is good but while you're adding these goofy drawings, they work! It's fun and the information is an order of magnitude quicker absorption. It's like IF x HIIT. I'm doing the things you've outlined and have been evolving over the past 10 years fighting IR and poor metabolic health. It is so hard and has been impossible to find a physician partner that bases their practice in the nutritional POV you espouse. I know I have caused severe damage during my life (A1C was 11, now 5.5). I want to evaluate and monitor damage, recovery progress. For example, can i determine through tests (blood, etc) current health (fat in liver, mitochondria function or DNA, meaning of triglyceride/LDL levels, evolved allergy, vascular damage). I'd like to have as detailed an evaluation as possible so i can address any immediate issues and monitor improvement through testing. I need someone like you in my area as my primary physician. Any suggestions on how to make that connection?
Just discovered your channel, love the 3 videos I’ve watched so far. Believe it or not you drawings help explain the processes. I’ve backed up several times to capture your drawings as photos. Thank you.
I appreciate that you haven't DUMBED it down. Thank You! Understanding how the body works makes it easier to commit to devoting the time and effort to a healthier lifestyle.
I have to thank you for putting out videos like this one. You're largely responsible for a number of healthy choices I've recently made. Bonus: I have more energy than I've had in years.
wow... you definitely made my night and my mood went up high !!! In the beginning, I said to myself ...hm, I know all about that stuff, but you made me 🙊And the presentation-wow ...I was feeling I was in a big movie theater and watching with that interest, like a hungry boy for knowledge. fantastic job,dr.Hansen ❤From now on you are my first priority among all healthy doctors on youtube
Hey doctor Hansen, I foun myself compelled to reach out and tell you how much I enjoy your videos and posts. I have become a huge fan of your brand of topics and focus. By the by, lol I love your illustrations as well as the narrative prowess you employ.
I've implemented more fasting. When I wake up in the morning I would usually head straight to the kitchen and eat the usual breakfast. This would result in making me very tired due to a blood GLUCOSE AND INSULIN SPIKE. Now, I try to POSTPONE THE FOOD a few hours or even ELIMINATE THE BREAKFAST. Instead, i just have a coffee or tea and lemon water. Maybe a short WALK. I feel so much better! And NOT TIRED! Thanks doctor, lots of info here. ( For those of you who work a day job and need to eat breakfast, eliminate a meal in the day or evening).
Hey great stuff! Your drawings made for a great educational tool. Plus you basically summarized all the h ealth issues related to good metabolic health - though there were a few slides that I'll have to watch again to really absorb. PS Wouldn't it be nice if all doctors could educate their patients this way? Maybe spend a few minutes of explanation, plus some handouts as they leave the surgery.
This is what we need … my doctor do not explain . We need to know why too so I thank Dr. Mike for the explanation. I wished I knew more so we are motivated to get healthier. I have taken a lot for granted. And now I have to do more to get back my health . Education is important for us to get it !
Wow, you did a nice job on this; the kids in high school biology class will love it, lol, for doing papers. Thanks for your hard work to explain all this.
Can you comment on building muscle while Intermittent Fasting? If we are also battling muscle loss as we age, how do we build muscle while reducing our food intake or maybe this isn't a challenge for many people. Thanks for the informative videos!
Being on a keto diet for years and in my 50's, I ensure to eat a protein rich diet (chicken breasts, eggs, protein shakes) with a regular resistance and free weight training. I get comments on my muscular psyche all of the time. But it requires a consistent schedule because if I don't train for a couple of weeks due to being sick, it's insane how quickly I lose the muscle mass.
@@MsElke11 Make sure that you're eating calcium rich foods during the time that you eat eg) dairy, broccoli/leafy greens, almonds, eggs, etc. If you can't incorporate those foods into your diet, then try dietary supplements of calcium carbonate. Also, make sure that you lift weights or keep your muscles strong as the strength of your muscles affect the density of your bones as you age.
Very comprehensive and interesting public health video which must have taken considerable time to make. The apoptosis drawing particularly appealed to me.
Can you do a video sometime on senescent cells. Do they cause cancer? I’ve heard them called zombie cells, do they emit something that damages nearby cells? Does they autophagy process gets rid of them?
Almost my whole adult life I’ve had people including my own children ride me for not liking breakfast. I’m French and an immigrant my children are first generation Americans and really do the standard American diet much better than I do. I have a bout a 4 to 5 hour eating window and that worked so well for me being a high-performing athlete that works full-time not works out full-time huge difference and the fasting keeps me on my toes❤ And lean with high energy🎉
For the case of the fructose, does that mean that we need to be extremelly careful concerning including fruits in our daily diets? Should we prefer fruits with higher fiber/fructose ratios? Thanks Dr Mike for your amazing clear expositions!
RSV is running rampant and hitting both very young and older adults. Once on the mend its hard to get rid of the lung congestion and it lingers for weeks. What is your advise on getting rid of the lingering lung congestion?
Can someone kindly clarify what he is saying about Fructose being the no.1 thing to avoid, then he's suggesting including fruit? Or does he mean not eating tonnes of fruit, or squeezed fruit juice? Or is he talking about HFCS? Thank you :-)
Love these videos, and the last two are great. But I STILLLLLLL don't know what intermittent fasting is and how to do it per the title. That is never stated, or I missed it! Do I only eat 12 hours before bedtime.. as that is the only thing I could find. Can others help decipher as to what I'm missing? Thanks
Many people (like me) eat in an 8 hour window daily. I stop eating by 8pm or thereabouts and won’t break my fast until noon the next day. 16 hours of fasting results in the body using the body’s stored fat and converts it to ketones. It becomes easier after you’ve done this for awhile. For me, I sleep better and am generally not hungry at bedtime. Good luck to you.
@@keng7758 Got it! I used to do such when younger! I NEVER ate f'ast as I would be ravenously hungry 2 hours later. If I just did tea... i could go all day without eating. Hmmm. now.. at elderly status, I eat/drink sugars from 6 am to 1 am ! Hmmm. So, if that is what is needed, are those smoothies that are flax and proteins etc best done when you go to be to get through those 16 hours? That is the question that the doc hasn't explained to me well enough. lol, guess he's not a dietician and nutritionist, but wish I had a plan and recipe that I could follow! Thanks for taking the time to respond!
How heart will cop up during long fasting when it needs energy, particularly for BP patients, or elderly and High blood sugar medicines taking people ? How to take blood thinners during long fasting. And do kidney suffer during the prolong fasting ?
I don't know if you have time to reply or not. But I took proton pump inhibitors 16 years ago for about a period of about 3 years. Starting on day one I fell into a complete collapse because I feel like the proton pump inhibitors not only targeted my stomach but it went systemic and affected my entire system. It is now 16 years later and I still have nothing but exhaustion and weakness everywhere. I'm trying to figure out how to unblock the effect that the proton pump inhibitors had. Recently I was given them again because I had ulcers. But they do have a systemic effect on me and make me worse. Intermittent fasting seems to be at least part of the answer to this problem. If I can produce new mitochondria that are not affected by the proton pump inhibitors and then my body can start over. I am just concerned that the proton pump inhibitors have never been cleared from my system and they just attack new mitochondria that are produced. It is like there is a binding process that takes a place in The Binding is either irreversible or part only partly reversible. If it was completely reversible my problem would have been over a long time ago. Do you know anything about the containment or removal of proton pump inhibitors that are poisoning the mitochondria? 16 years of my life have been ruined. I have constant insomnia and constant weakness and exhaustion. I had to retire early. I live like a zombie cuz my brain is fatigued as well. I can barely stand up and walk so I have no ability to do aerobic exercise. I am so weak I have to use a walker. Should I stop eating fruit since that is a source of fructose?
Question for your Dr. Mike. Are you saying that fruit is not good to eat much of as it contains fructose? If not, fructose from what foods are you speaking of?
Hello Doctor Hansen my name is Moises I am 23 yrs old and I am contacting you because I need your help. My mother is 53 yrs old and recently had a cerebellar stroke and was recently diagnosed with a severe basilar artery stenosis of 90%. A few Interventional Neurologist told her that she only has 10% of life left due to the sever obstruction and there is nothing for them to do neither would surgery nor medications be able to help her to reduce the stenosis of plaque build-up specifically in the basilar artery and that whenever the Basilar artery does get eventually clogged then there will be a severe stroke leading to death because according to their explanation that's the primary source where the brainstem receives oxygenated blood supply. I really need your help in this situation because I don't know what to do nor how to help her. I would like to know doctor if there is any way to reverse my mother's arthro sclerosis and this basilar artery stenosis. It was caused by prolonged elevated levels of high LDL cholesterol and diabetes. She is currently taking Plavix, aspirin and atorvastatin. Thank you in advance, please help me doctor you're very knowledgeable expert and I have seen all your videos talking about the covid-19 pandemic and you have helped me alot. I believe that you may be able to help me further more than all the other Physicians I have spoken to. I need your help greatly and I understand that perhaps you might not get this message because it's simply a CZcams comment .I will also be following the advice on this youtube video. I dont want to loose my mom bc she is full of life, Thank you doctor for your help.
Dr Hansen. I am really confused, I hear often that fructose/sugar are bad for you, and it is what leads to oxidative stress and mitochondria breakdown, as you pointed out in this video. However, you also suggest eating plenty of Fruits, which contains the very fructose you condemn. Can you help me understand this contradiction?
Fruits are not bad for you although they contain fructose. Left unprocessed they are high in fibre and water and vitamins which slows down digestion and thus doesn't spike insulin. However fruits should be consumed in moderation. Best to keep away from processed fruits such as canned fruits, dried fruits and fruit juices.
One question I’ve always had: what if you break your fast with something tiny, how is it possible that your fasting window is entirely reset? For example: you’re 10 hours into a 20 hour fast. You eat one M&M candy. Does the body ramp up to process that sugar and then stay in that state for hours until you can get back to ketosis?
Especially great content, video is packed with science. Thank you Doctor Mike! I have same question as David. If I have 1/2 cup of sugar-free almond milk or coconut milk with my morning coffee, did I break my fast by adding those 4-8 grams of fat, protein and fiber? What if I’m sipping and it takes me 3 hours to drink the latte?
I think your fast is not totally gone if you are having something high fat; butter, cream, cheese, avocado, nuts, coconut. You eliminate the carbohydrates and this reduces or eliminates the glucose-insulin spike.
I think if you use your muscles which can quickly use that absorbed sugar, you can mitigate the effect of eating that small amount of sugar. Like lifting weights, doing squats (large muscle group actionP
I don't understand much of what you're talking about but the bottom line seems to be eat what's good for you, exercise, and fast intermittently. Thanks.
Really hoping your med school notebooks looked like this 😂 I’ve tried 16hr intermittent fasting but I get pretty hangry or out of it (low blood sugar?). Gonna keep trying, maybe 14 is good enough
Doctor Mike, I much appreciate these detailed elucidations on medical issues and health. I just would like to point out - by way of constructive 'criticism' - that the musical flourishes underneath your speaking voice are rather distracting and irksome, especially to us 33% (or so) auditory learners. It's like the muzak in an elevator or the mall, it just serves to numb the brain. Hope you will reconsider even if youtube academy appears to be pushing these supposedly for added production value, to enhance their own bottom line. greetings from The Netherlands
in terms of DNL it seems that sucrose is as bad or slightly worse than fructose (maybe counter-intuitive, but outcome of a pretty recent research by Zurichs uni) So yeah, avoid those added sugars (the study also found that glucose (dextrose) has a much milder impact than sucrose/fructose)

My mother is 53 yrs old and recently had a cerebellar stroke and was recently diagnosed with a severe basilar artery stenosis of 90%. A few Interventional Neurologist told her that she only has 10% of life left due to the sever obstruction and there is nothing for them to do neither would surgery nor medications be able to help her to reduce the stenosis of plaque build-up specifically in the basilar artery and that whenever the Basilar artery does get eventually clogged then there will be a severe stroke leading to death because according to their explanation that's the primary source where the brainstem receives oxygenated blood supply. I really need your help in this situation because I don't know what to do nor how to help her. I would like to know doctor if there is any way to reverse my mother's arthro sclerosis and this basilar artery stenosis. It was caused by prolonged elevated levels of high LDL cholesterol and diabetes. She is currently taking Plavix, aspirin and atorvastatin. Thank you in advance, please help me doctor you're very knowledgeable expert and I have seen all your videos talking about the covid-19 pandemic and you have helped me alot. I believe that you may be able to help me further more than all the other Physicians I have spoken to. I need your help greatly and I understand that perhaps you might not get this message because it's simply a CZcams comment .I will also be following the advice on this youtube video. I dont want to loose my mom bc she is full of life, Thank you doctor for your help.
Does your body think you are eating a snack if you put lemon in your water and drink that during the fasting time? Will that mess up my fasting?
When there is apoptosis, where do the cell remains go ?
Its interesting to watch but I get irritated by the scratching sound of the marker on paper.
It hurts my ear.
Nevertheless, very informative video.
Dr Hansen. I am really confused, I hear often that fructose/sugar are bad for you, and it is what leads to oxidative stress and mitochondria breakdown, as you pointed out in this video. However, you also suggest eating plenty of Fruits, which contains the very fructose you condemn. Can you help me understand this contradiction?
Fruits are not bad for you although they contain fructose. Left unprocessed they are high in fibre and water and vitamins which slows down digestion and thus doesn't spike insulin. However fruits should be consumed in moderation. Best to keep away from processed fruits such as canned fruits, dried fruits and fruit juices.

One question I’ve always had: what if you break your fast with something tiny, how is it possible that your fasting window is entirely reset? For example: you’re 10 hours into a 20 hour fast. You eat one M&M candy. Does the body ramp up to process that sugar and then stay in that state for hours until you can get back to ketosis?
Especially great content, video is packed with science. Thank you Doctor Mike! I have same question as David. If I have 1/2 cup of sugar-free almond milk or coconut milk with my morning coffee, did I break my fast by adding those 4-8 grams of fat, protein and fiber? What if I’m sipping and it takes me 3 hours to drink the latte?
I think your fast is not totally gone if you are having something high fat; butter, cream, cheese, avocado, nuts, coconut. You eliminate the carbohydrates and this reduces or eliminates the glucose-insulin spike.

I think if you use your muscles which can quickly use that absorbed sugar, you can mitigate the effect of eating that small amount of sugar. Like lifting weights, doing squats (large muscle group actionP
Thank You so helpful and informative. Doing a paper on IF at uni. :)

I don't understand much of what you're talking about but the bottom line seems to be eat what's good for you, exercise, and fast intermittently. Thanks.
Really hoping your med school notebooks looked like this 😂
I’ve tried 16hr intermittent fasting but I get pretty hangry or out of it (low blood sugar?). Gonna keep trying, maybe 14 is good enough

I started fasting a week ago i do 21 hours a day and 25 a few days im getting ready for a 36 hour lvciddd
Doctor Mike, I much appreciate these detailed elucidations on medical issues and health. I just would like to point out - by way of constructive 'criticism' - that the musical flourishes underneath your speaking voice are rather distracting and irksome, especially to us 33% (or so) auditory learners. It's like the muzak in an elevator or the mall, it just serves to numb the brain. Hope you will reconsider even if youtube academy appears to be pushing these supposedly for added production value, to enhance their own bottom line. greetings from The Netherlands
So how long is intermittent fasting 15 hours 18 hours

Excellent video, but I see that fruit is good but fructose is bad. Fruit is a big no-no when dieting, so what's the takeaway here?

Does fasting mean no water aswell ? Like absolutely nothing more 12 hours ?
You can drink water.
in terms of DNL it seems that sucrose is as bad or slightly worse than fructose (maybe counter-intuitive, but outcome of a pretty recent research by Zurichs uni) So yeah, avoid those added sugars (the study also found that glucose (dextrose) has a much milder impact than sucrose/fructose)

Can intermittent fasting help in increasing the height of 18 to 21 year olds? ❓
It's usually used to decrease weight. Are you trying to gain weight?
