  • Autophagy is the natural cellular recycling process that rids our body of old or malfunctional protein. This sets in motion the process of rejuvenation as our body rebuilds new proteins to replace the old ones. Autophagy is a powerful method of healing and is best activated by fasting.

      That's why 1.3 billion Muslims around the world FAST, from sunrise to sunset, for a month every year. It's prescribed by our Creator. That's why Islam promotes and encourages science as it helps uncover our divine law. I appeal to all the scientists to explore the book of Quran. This book of divine law and signs is untouched and intact in it's original language since 1400 years. Divine laws also came before but unfortunately they are not intact anymore. Quran is the last correction of the divine law. Explore it!

In fact because my chronic sinus / Nasal congestion problem cleared up within a week I had , by chance , found positive reinforcement to help me give up bread . Nearly 18 months on I doubt if I have eaten one loaf of bread in total . When I ate bread I got into the habit of feeding birds with half the loaf because I knew that I could easily finish off a loaf once I had started on it . Oats , which are meant to be satiating , were even more hunger inducing for me . Even when I was eating the first bowl I was thinking of the second bowl ! I think for some people ( and I am definitely one ) carbs cause this extreme insulin response - so you can never reach satiety .

    I want to Thank You Dr. Fung I found one of your videos on fasting and the biggest losers 1 year ago before I was going in for a surgery. Started fasting worked up to one meal a day went from 240 to 190 at 5’11”. I turn 60 in a month my goal now is to get to 185 the same weight I came out of high school at. Doing this for a year with no problem I think proves to me I will do this for the rest of my life. Could not have done it without you and Dr. Ekberg love him as well. Thanks Again

Eat lots of meats,eggs and vegetables with some fruit and drink lots of water with electrolytes and afew supplement pills like vitamin C , Magnessium and zinc . Living the dream again thank God!

      @@josephwanjiku6853Nope, that is not how it works. First you need to get fat adapted with little to none carbs, and you loose mainly water the first week or so, with 16/8 autophagy is not really a big factor, 1MAD gives you more of the benefits.
      And once youbhave lost some weight, your metabolism is somewhat changing, so longer fasting periods keep you going. Also, the occasional carb spike like a Thai Curry with rice or a pasta dish and organic Greek yoghurt with blueberry and a tablespoon of honey keeps your body busy and ‚trains‘ metabolic flexibility.
      The thing is, you go about it the way you feel. Do your first fast when you feel like it, as long as you feel comfortable doing it.
      But the point is: your weighting not gradually going down in a certain amount of days/months. You also need to look into an exercise regiment fitting your individual body. Daily walks work wonders, and an App like 7MWC where you’re following 7 high intensity exercises for 45 seconds or so. The intensity is yours to choose. And you can do all of the exercising in your bedroom/living room - no equipment needed.
      Have fun with it!
