- ◉ Intermittent fasting is a diet strategy that involves alternating periods of eating and extended fasting (meaning no food at all or very low calorie consumption).
◉There are 4 popular fasting approaches: periodic fasting, time-restricted feeding, alternate-day fasting and the 5:2 diet.
◉Time-restricted feeding, sometimes called daily intermittent fasting, is perhaps the easiest and most popular fasting method.
◉Daily intermittent fasters restrict eating to certain time periods each day, say 11 in the morning to 7 at night. The fasting period is usually around 12 or more hours that, helpfully, includes time spent sleeping overnight.
◉Periodic fasting will feel most familiar: no food or drinks with calories for 24-hour periods.
◉ Another type of fast, alternate-day fasting requires severe calorie reduction every other day.
◉ Lastly, the 5:2 method was popularized by author Kate Harrison’s book “The 5:2 Diet" and requires fasting on two nonconsecutive days a week.
👨🏻⚕️🩺 Dr. Jason Fung is a Canadian nephrologist and functional medicine advocate who promotes a low-carbohydrate high-fat diet and intermittent fasting.Fung disputes the current saturated fat guidelines.
Fung is an author of many low-carbohydrate diet books.His first book, The Complete Guide to Fasting, co-authored by Jimmy Moore was published in fall 2016 and offered insight to all aspects of fasting culture.
The Obesity Code and The Diabetes Code were subsequently published in 2016 and 2018. His book The Obesity Code Cookbook was published in 2019. In 2021, Fung co-authored The Diabetes Code Cookbook with Alison Maclean. In 2020, Fung co-authored with naturopath Nadia Brito Pateguana The PCOS Plan: Prevent and Reverse Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Through Diet and Fasting. His book The Cancer Code, published in 2020 advocates intermittent fasting and a low-carbohydrate diet to reduce cancer risk.
Dr Fung deserves to win the Nobel Prize- it is long overdue. :)
Best doctor ever!
I agree❤
Agreed.
100%!
So many people he has helped who he will never know about. He changed my life
I am oncologist who after 50 years living miserably on a low fat diet, thank you Dr Fung you have changed my life as I now enjoy natural full fat diet and practice intermittent fasting each day and avoid sugar thus I can control my weight now and arthritis has gone.
Unfortunately my patients and their GPS don’t believe me when I try and educate them about this lifestyle change
Need to this into medical schools
I've been doing it for long time one meal a day now it's not working
@@Billeyeyou need to alternate what you are doing otherwise the body adapts. Like eat 3 meals one day and one meal the next.
@@Lbenyo79 thank you for come back I'll give it a try thanks
You have to add other things in as well like walking
Lbenyo79 is most likely correct. For some people (myself included) it is necessary for your to periodically change your diet because their bodies adapt to what they are doing to lose weigh and theor weight loss stalls or they even start gaining weight! Try just maintaining your weight as close as you cab but add things you aren't currently eating. Basically change up your diet and eating timings Do this for a few weeks. then, go back to the things you were eating before, and you will probably restart your weight loss. This works for me. Lost 35 lbs, then got stuck...have taken a month of just maintaining and now I have gone back to what I was doing ( low carb, high in good fats,16/8 intermittent fasting) and I it seems to be working again.
For me Dr. Jason Fung was an angle from God. His message was Gods answer to my prayer. I thank God for him.
Dr Fung, your legacy will live on for saving millions of people from sickness and misery….FREE OF CHARGE. God bless you in each and every moment of your life. Thank you Dr Fung.🙏😇😁💝💝💝

Yes thank you Dr Fung for making a difference ❤
I have been doing intermittent fasting and the ketogenic diet for about 4 months. I have lost about 25 pounds. I know I am getting healthier. I plan to try to do this for the rest of my life....I'm so sad that our doctors and our FDA, NIH, CDC, and medical schools are not really supporting true health and seem to be slaves to economic factors.
Follow the money trails.
It is in "their" interests, that we stay fat and sick !
😊vnmymvgwnbx 😊 x😊😊 😊😊 😊
They need unhealthy people so that they have people to treat
My case is similar to yours. I started this journey in the first week of May 2024. Today July 1, I'm down 26 pounds. I started with Keto and 48 hour fasting. I'm now on OMAD with some dietary restrictions. Buy what I eat is delicious, health😢 and filling.
My skin is softer, I'm down 2 sizes in tops and bottoms. I couldn't be happier and will forever be careful with WHAT I eat and WHEN I eat/ splurge... It's a moderate splurge. I find even a small treat is MORE than satisfying and sometimes I wish I had not even eaten it.
My feeding schedule has been flexible. I plateaued and figured pretty quickly what 8 had to do to break it; Then I immediately lost four pounds.
You are great Dr Fung. I lost 20 lbs. Im 77
One word I have to say I wish there is more honest doctors like you , thank you so much for your speech Dr.Fung.
A while back I tried plant based whole food diet. Hoping to lose weight and get healthier. Did that for quite some time with zero positive results, and no weight loss whatsoever. Then I started hearing about keto/carnivore from some drs on CZcams. Ken Berry and Neisha, Shawn Baker, Anthony Chaffee and Kiltz were a few. After following their advice I’ve lost over 74 pounds and am continuing forward to drop another 30-40 more pounds! At this point I feel fabulous, better than I have in decades! Also listening to Jason Fung got me started in thinking differently about carbs, which went along with Keto/Carnivore. After reading Dr Fungs book on fasting, I was all in! 🎉 I’ve done this, and continue to do so😊and I am a testament to the fact that it works! I feel and look so healthy now compared to all those years carrying around all that awful load! Listen, Learn, and carry it through! This works!!! ❤🎉
I wonder how many lives this man has saved!
Thank you so much Dr. Fung! You have most definitely changed my lifestyle. I have loss 43lbs doing 16/8 since May 2023 and my health is getting better. Getting off blood pressure medication and Gout as well. My gout has been under controlled as my uric acid levels have declined, Inflammation is gone, blood pressure levels are normal and in the process in getting off my medication. I went from 233lbs to 186lbs and my beer belly is gone. You are a special type of Dr/ scientist and I’m truly grateful. Be bless and continue teaching the truth of fasting. 🙏🏼👆🏼💪🏼🙌🏼👏🏼✌🏼
I started intermittent fasting 16:8, about 6 weeks ago. I am flabbergasted with how well it works, how much better I feel, how much weight I’ve lost, the disappearance (complete disappearance) of cravings, and that I am never…never hungry or hangry. All these years of gaining and losing weight only to discover the easiest thing ever…AND, I haven’t implemented exercise yet. Exercise is definitely next but fasting does work - for me. I do believe I’ll always fast from this point on.
I listen to you every night. I'm following your advice I lost 40 lbs, and have reverse diabetes. I go to the gym at least four times a week. Thank you so much for the way you explain things. I feel so blessed that I can get this free advice and keep my sanity.
I'm encouraged
I fasted for 10 days and listening to dr fung helped get through it. My tennis elbow went away . I also list 30 pounds. I followed it with intermittent fasting and keto diet. Its been 2 years and maintained tge weight.
Did you do it 18 hours fast and between 6 hours eating window or 16/8 ??? How did you do intermittent Fast???? Thank you for your valuable information!!!!!
That’s fast! Wow!
U lost 30 LBS in 10 days??? How is that possible??
I am a type 2 Diabetic doctor in the USA and I have taken your advice and significantly changed my diet and fasted occasionally and my Diabetes has greatly improved.
No longer on any anti diabetic medication.
Feel a lot better.
Thanks for your sincere advice and scientific approach. Best regards.
Have you bothered to tell your patience
All of it is so true. I fasted for 40 days and it changed my life 😊 Now, I do intermittent everyday.
My goal is to fast for 40 days. I have gone as long as nine. How did you go 40 ? More willpower than me... sigh
@@milkmaid4077 meditated alot❤️
If you do it daily your body will be use to for it and you will not get same benifit twice a week is good
40 days with No food? How did you do it?
@@noellesnow186 with a lot of meditation
Nov 17 I sat in my car and thought should I call an ambulance or just go ahead and die. Everything, health wise was hitting me, it seemed all at once.
I didn't die.
At home I ran across a CZcams video that pointed to all my symptoms. That guy didn't focus on the symptoms, he focused on the cause: fatty liver-insulin resistance.
Solution for starters High fat/low carb and fasting 16/8.
I tried it. By last week I was out in the cold shoveling snow.
Just thinking back 2 1/2 months ago, I couldn't walk from my house to my car without resting halfway. The same day I asked, "am I going to die today?"
It goes against all the teachings, but there's too much evidence to deny it any longer.
We all owe the late Dr Adkins a big Thank you he stood his ground on what he knew was right all along
Also fasting and lost 7lbs in 3 weeks and going strong. Easiest thing I’ve ever done. Started for religious reasons as this is in the Bible. Now learning why our Lord told us to fast!
Our Lord may have told us but Dr Fung convinced us.
Yeees. And I had an epiphany. “He” is the bread of life. We don’t need a lot of earthly food. We need “Him”. We put food in our God hole in our hearts. We believe the lies that the elite wants us to believe. Lack of self control is definitely a “Wonky” “self” control issue. Thank you for opening the conversation to God. ❤
Thank you Lee! God is most definitely more important than food. “Man cannot live on bread alone.” Love the Lord, and love you all!
It’s so perfect you mentioned the 70’s bodies. I was telling my husband that I was watching Soul Train and everyone was so skinny. I was telling him, how did we get sooo fat since the 70’s? You just told me. So awesome!
Dang! You’re right!
So true.
I started IF around 2 years now thanks to you Dr Fung I've not only lost weight but my health is great no more tablets I had high BP type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol plus I was morbidly over weight as I'm only 5ft tall and to the BMI said I needed to loose weight I went from 2lb off 20stone now I'm 9st 4lbs half the woman I was again thanks Dr Fung ❤❤❤xx
Can you share your journey please ? I started IF just under 4 weeks now and have almost lost a stone. I am 15st 5 started at 16.2 but want to get down to 9st 7 which is the weight I was at after having 2 children.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated ❤
I followed you and within a year I have reversed my diabetes. Thank you your sensible advise to make your body insulin sensitive by reducing sugar and carbohydrates.
Hello love this educational health video. My doctor told me i was prediabetes that I would go on to become diabetic, I said why he said because people that's pre-diabetic always become diabetic he never told me that if I change my lifestyle my diet that I could beat this, but I took it on my own to change my lifestyle now my A1C went from 6.3 to 5.8 without his advice.
The same thing with my doctor, he loves to give me medication 😆!!! Now my part time job is studying about health herbal effects and fasting…….. !!!!!
You did good job 👏 thanks for sharing!!!!!
Two weeks ago, I took your advice and practiced low carb (30g per meal) and daily intermittent fasting. I also started a keto mediterranean diet. The results are exactly as you explained in the video. Thank you so much, I feel like I can keep this lifestyle for the rest of my life.
❤❤❤ Dr. Fung! He has a true gift for making all of the physiology and processes very understandable for everyone.

Thank you Dr. Fung, you are a true blessing and I love your information! You are truly helping to make the world a better place! 🙂
I have followed everything you talk about. My type 2 diabetis which i have for about 12 years taking 2 every morning and 2 every night i stopped taking for abt a month. I totally stop carbs in take coming from rice and stop sugar consumption. Reduce fructose by having avocados and boiled eggs instead. Had a moderate fish and chicken and consumed vegetables cooked with just 0:36 garlic and added shrimps or pork. Did walking for half an hour every
morning. Consumed cabbage with applecider vinegar. My glucose reading falls from approx 9.something to an ave of 5 for just 1 month and my hbaic reading is 6.2 wc is excellent now only with 1/3 of 3 months average. Hopefully will still go down
Next 3 months bloodwork. I feel great and my tummy lost fats i know since my pants is falling if i will not adjust my belt for abt 2
Inches tighter. Hope this i did will be of help to everyone who wants to reverse type 2 diabetis and i wish to add that i did eliminated my prescribed medicine to present. God bless us all diabetics.
I forgot to mention my fasting time which is 6 pm to 8am to 9 am breakfast approximately 15/9 ratio of fasting.
Way to go!!!!!
I had my bloodwork after 3 months wherein i followed dr. Fungs advise abt intermittent fasting. Today, i am truly happy with the result of my bloodwork.. my glucise reading came down to 5.8 and my hba1c result is 5.5.
I am now on vacation on a tropical country. 74 years old retired and my prescription for metformin and gliclazide was totally eliminated by my doctor. My doctor advice is still to bring some metformin and monitor my blood glucose and i am still monitoring. Still i am always at range 5 something. I lost 30 lbs and now having my regular 3 times a day meal with rice and cake lot of veggies. Thanks dr jason fung. Really appreciate all of your tips, advise and teachings to reverse my type 2 diabetis. Adding i had a color cancer which i did recover too. After 9 months of chemo. God bless us all with diabetis. God bless you dr fung, pls continue helping people like ne.
Thanks to your advocacy to low carb diet & intermittent fasting , I've lost 50lb and reversed D2. I now have no medication in my body. I eat whole foods, no sugar or super processed foods.
It's my first time to listen to this Dr, he is extremely good. I have been following Dr Eric Berg, who is good as well
This is great information! Knowledge is powerful but doing makes this knowledge effective for better health. I love that I’m not brainwashed anymore. I snickered when Dr. Fung said “Even if you’re not hungry…Oh, shove a muffin in your mouth!!” Comical but true that this is being said. Breakfast isn’t a necessity! Thanks for this useful information!
Thanks a lot Dr. J. FUNG, you are the best Doctors of all Doctors in the world. Thanks for helping poor patients, who cannot afford to pay the hospital services, cannot afford to buy expensive medicine and laboratory. ❤❤
Amen
Modern science - finally recognising what the Eastern societies have known and been practicing for over 5K years! Well done Dr. Fung for finally bringing this to light in western medicine.
Thanks, Dr.Jason Fung. From.Mumbai.India.
You are God sent to diabetes patients. I am so grateful to you .
I found Dr’s Fung CZcams videos and just want to shared that I ordered the book today. I started fasting for one week and looking forward to heal my body from different issues. My husband also joined a day later and hopefully we can help each other. He’s dealing with high blood pressure, back problems and obesity. On the other hand, I have painful breast fibrosis, cholesterol, osteopenia, arthritis and back problems as well. We’re hoping to heal and get better with IF approach.
Wow you are a one in a million Dr./ Person, I'm so glad I ran across this video.
Dr. Jason Fung is amazing and I pray most doctors are like him my God I never listen or hear any doctor speak like this except few other doctors, he’s so honest and caring for people he doesn’t see them as patient or $ my God protect this Doctor God bless you Dr. Jason Fung.
I am a prediabetic 65 year old woman. I was doing keto and intermittant fasting and a few more extended fasts. I lost 16 lbs. Now I have had big problems with hypoglycemia, fatigue, weakness, shakiness etc. My problems are not do to electrolyte imbalances or dehydration to my knowledge. For the last few days I have had to reintroduce carbs again not flour or sugar, though. Does anyone have advice for me?
❤ very inspiring. Truely you are the candidate for noble prize
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Dr Fung, you are God send to people 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🌹again
Very Inspirational Video, and We'll Said ..
"
The Meaning of life is to find your gift..
The purpose of life is to give away."
You are GOD SENT To HUMANS and Diabetes Patients...
Thankyou Sir.
My problem is my doctor tells me I am still diabetic although my Hb A1c is 5.0 and I have a mildly fatty liver. I can see now from your talk that it will help me a lot if I start fasting at least one day each week. Thanks so much Dr Fung.
I'm type 2 diabetics I was gavin ozempic it make me bloated and also made me have a lot off acid reflux plus I got allergy which I never had my sinus gotten worst and I can stop clearing my throat can anybody help me with this
Sounds like your doctor just doesn't want to be a part of change. If you haven't, consider reading the diabetes code by Dr. Fung. ✌️
Stop taking the poison and start fasting!
Super lovely speaking, !thank you very much…100% agree and that is what I am doing every day without healthy problems but because I feel 1000% much more strong , energetic and 30kg lighter! Many thanks for your gift to the people..
Love this guy!!! Bless him

For the first time I listen to a sincere confession by a senior Dortor.
Thanks guys

The absolute best explanation I’ve ever found on how diabetes occurs and how to prevent it.
God richly bless you Dr❤🎉you said it right ✅️

Dr. Fung thank you, and God bless you fr yur honesty
He makes sence ,❤ bless him
Thanks Dr jason fung
Ever notice how many diabetes medication ads run during his podcasts? It’s like they are trying to counteract his info…
23:00 The diabetes solution is to clean out the liver by fasting, which is more beneficial than exercise.
Update: 17,5kilos in 5 months, after 4 week trip to Russia where i ate all typical food available 🕺 🇨🇵🇨🇵Merci pour vos conseils Dr Fung.. 🇨🇵🇨🇵
I follow them and since 20th july 2023, 3 months just now i lost 15 kilograms, i was 125 kg.. now the most evident effect on my health is that i do not cough every time i wanted to talk, i coughed very strongly, nobody gave me a good treatment... i snore less now..and can sleep without anxiety of dying in my bed
And i will do intermittent fadting all my life..
I want to be at 90 kilos and will do rapid walk on the seaside soon. 🇨🇵🇨🇵 merci beaucoup from France 🇨🇵🇨🇵
What is the one mistake that people make when fasting ?
🙏🙏🙏Thanks for your sincere advice and scientific approach. You’re the greatest benefit to humankind!👏👏👏. May you be blessed forever more! ❤️❤️❤️
I fast and eat all I want
Haha… sounds familiar… I took nutrition courses in 2023… now I’m discovering in May, 2024 everything I learned was wrong in 2023… I’m having to relearn everything new… I had been vegetarian for over 35 years and I learned red meat and fat caused heart disease….i Leaned low fat was the healthiest eating plan… now I’m learning red meat and fat is not bad… I’m learning low carb can reverse diabetes.. I wish I had found you before my courses in 2023… you are so refreshing because you are telling the truth… big pharma wants everyone on medication so they give doctors bonuses to put people on medication…
How long does it take for blood sugar to go down with fasting and low carb diet.
I am diabetes for 38 years and I have arthritis for 18 years and done both knees replacement and both hips replacement. I don't have any complications from diabetes. Can you guide me please what to do with this health problems 🙏. I am really giving up testing every now and then. I need to eradicate all my health problems. Thanks in advance.
I m thin , don't want to lose weight, but I have got insulin resistance, how do I do this maintain and gain my weight by eating vegetables and low calories foods.
What about TOFI Type 2 diabetic folks? My friend is in this situation.
Dr Fung , any suggestions or thoughts on Rheumatoid Arthritis and Hashimoto’s
Dr Mindy said , said 24 hours water only fasting for Arthritis and about 48 hours for Hashimotos every week for three months.
Dr Jason Fung, I disagree with you on one thing.... the white bread throws my blood sugar over 300 even with 1 peice, however a candy bar only brings it to 225 so I don't think the sugar is as dangerous as the white bread and rice. I have noticed if I add lots of vegtables the blood sugar doesn't get thrown way high with the bread and rice however it still reaches about the same as a candy bar around 225
Is it possible to empty the excess sugar From the body? Yes! Stop eating it (sugar) for a few days... or forever.
How long to fast .
Lost 65 lbs
Stuck now
Should I fast longer now like 7 says
How long ?
Hello Dr. I am on medication. I am on metfumine two times a day and other medication. I have done 7 day of intermittent fasting and everything went well. I was talking my medication while I was doing the intermittent fasting. Please advise me
Stopping the fast??
I wish I was near your offices. Live in CT feel trapped by the system and sense their ears are deaf to what I have learned how I want to proceed. Then there is cholesterol issues
I have diabetes not over weight tired of pills how can I reverse my diabetes.
I just hope doctor Fung won't die suddenly under suspicious circumstances after saying all this out loud
I have been practiced to reduce Sugar and carbohydrates as well as intermittent fasting for about five months and my weight seems to loose from 135 to 120 lbs but my glucose is still not significantly lower that much especially early in the morning. Please advise. Thank you
Have you tried to go for walks, even just 20 minutes, after each meal? It may help burn off the sugar in your body after meals... A lot of these videos say that we have to add regular exercise too, to get the best benefit. Just walking 30 minutes a day makes a tremendous improvement in our health, they say.
You may need to drop carbohydrates further. Try only meat and eggs for a week and chart your daily blood sugar. Be sure to get your sleep too
@@ruthrainous3068Our bodies were designed to be in daily activity...
Exercise is the preserving agent.
I recently tried to go without carb for 2 days, fasting blood sugar dropped from 140 to 98. Then ate 100gm of beef, 2 eggs, small portions of steam broccoli & bell peppers, and 1/4 of a plain bagel. One hr later, tested 160mg/dl glucose. That 1/4 bagel is so dangerous. Don't underestimate the hidden danger of carb, no matter how little consumed.
I’m over weight and have been intermittent fasting for a while now and not had a weight loss 😬
I would look into carnivore - Dr Anthony Chaffee is one but there are many doctors involved. Dr Shawn Baker . Professor Bart Kay . Combining it with fasting and lifting heavy should move you along. My problem is sugar addiction so I know why I fail . Zero sugar - perhaps even zero sweetener . Zero carbs .Only meat from ruminant animals. The doctors claim that even 95 % compliancy will not suffice for some - Must be 100% zero carb. Good luck.
I think it's the combination of intermittent fasting AND a low carb diet that helped me.
@@sandrasummers5975, YES, the processed foods have to be eliminated, that’s the winning combination for my husband and I. We eat in a 6 hour window on a regular basis. Dr Fung has really helped us with reaching our goals.
Try OMAD ( one meal a day ) with exercise
I.F. Doesn’t make you lose weight. You have to make certain you still have less calories in vs calories out. Get a calorie counter, I use Cronometer, it will be eye-opening how many more calories people consume. Good luck!
I tried the keto diet and was only able to do it for 2 weeks. I limited my daily carb intake to 20g and got constipated so bad that I had to stop!
I have lost 57kg 20 years back following a calorie restricted high carb, low fat and moderate protein diet. I was only able to maintain my weight for 5 years. Now I have done IF (daily 18:6 and a weekly 36 hour), again low fat, moderate protein and high carbs and lost 52kg over 8 months.
My point is .. I want to go onto a keto lifestyle combined with IF .. but .. how do I prevent the constipation?
1. Is there something I miss?
2. Something I don't know?
I don't want to take supplements or laxatives for the constipation!??
😳😳😮
I am on One Meal a Day that is a balanced diet of meat, veggies, fruit, bread. I can have my cake and eat it too! When I started eating these types of foods within one hour a day, I am regular with pooping and am losing 3 pounds a week. Will be down to 150 by mid March. I feel full of energy to take lots of walks.🎉
Make sure to drink a lot of water, black coffee helps, eating salads, veggies and healthy fats ( avocados and nuts and seeds, including hemp and flax seeds) have kept me from getting constipated, which I am prone to suffer from. Hope that helps!
If you are constipated on keto it means that you are not eating enough fat. Increase the fat and take a magnesium supplement.
Magnesium deficiency leads to constipation, poor concentration, insomnia, migraines or headaches, cramps, depression, anxiety like panic attacks
It's ok to take a supplement in order to help your body make the transition then it will catch up :)
Years ago, my doctor told me that as you gain weight, you develop more fat cells, and those fat cells never go away. Is this true?
No. Everyone is born with a set of fat cells. Fat cells are like balloons, they expand. When you loose weight, the fat cells contract.
Great video. Is skipping dinner the same or worse than skipping breakfast?
He usually says it’s better, but harder with family commitments. If you can do it, go for it!
Skipping dinner is my dream goal, I have been unsuccessful so far. No issues skipping breakfast at all but I think dinner ( if you manage).is better
Y we stay skinny, 🚴♀️ varoom, how u do it , & vegetarian diet !
But u ran it off already, oop's 🚴♀️ so now what ? 💝
a friend really need yhe benefits of fasting, but she’ll practically faint skipping just one meal.😭😭 how she can get around? her doctor told her to have some rice.
because rice is high gi to help her to avoid the fainting…..
Gradually (over 1-2 weeks) reduce sugar.
Your friend is addicted to sugar. This includes not just sweet desserts but also bread, pasta, pizza, potatoes in all forms and rice - and my favourite: baguette.
Eating some healthy high fat helps. Some suggestions: walnuts, roast avocado in olive oil or bacon fat (so delicious!), whip double cream 35% - which is 0 sugar- yet sweet tasting with berries.
Would highly recommend a lecture by Dr. Pradip Jamnadas, especially on why people cannot fast or keep diets. He calls us "sugar junkies" and explains what to do and why.
To be honest: difficult for the first month but SO worthwhile and does get easier.
Eat more bacon, ribeye steaks, avocado..., the good fats. It will satiate the body & cutb craving greatly.
Get her to watch one of these videos if you can. If she's not getting it even remotely, I don't think you can do much about it. Education is key.
I’ve only lost 10 pounds in a year but bg is lower
Is there also fructose in sugarcane and fruits?
Fruits also contain fibre and natural vitamins along with natural fructose.
If you want to enjoy a sweet treat, it’s far better to eat some fruit than candy, processed snacks, juice, or anything with high fructose corn syrup.
Fruit and table sugar are half glucose and half fructose. Some fruit is even higher in fructose.
Isn't insulin resistance a problem when fat AND sugar is jammed into cells which ruins the Randal circle? Eventually resulting in starvation in midst of "food" abundance - dementia , sarcopenia and much more.
Yep and it is all self inflicted. Put alcahol on top of it to really do yourself in.
If the cells are full, they're full. It doesn't matter if it's with fat or with sugar. You can't stuff more in there.
Never put off for tomorrow what you can do now
Im still down 35 lbs now..
The issue with drs are that they diagnose and precribe meds and you leave. The don't educate their patients on the disease they are treating and why the treatment. Their surgeries has become conveyer belts moving patients and get the next one in ... ! 😳
You have to accept this. It is the way it is. Educate yourself. If you need a physician (which will be rarely if you fast & eat WFPB) see a functional medicine physician.
It would be helpful if you just give key points of things to go rather than listening to loads of stuff that might not be relevant to me.
You telling us to fast from 11am - 7pm? That’s the time when we do eat.
I don’t want to rain on your parade but it would be helpful you tell us what to do first. Then you can elaborate for those people who want to hear that.
Just the clear points of what works.
I eat quite healthily and low carb most of the time but I have times of binge eating because I then crave carbs.
How do you avoid those cravings for carbs when you avoiding them?
