I just wanted to say thank you for posting these videos. They contain a treasure trove of information and have been very beneficial to me. I've watched this whole series and am looking forward to watching more!
This is interesting... I've had high blood pressure since I was a skinny 19 year old... I'm not 54 and still taking blood pressure meds. I've heard my entire life that I need to limit salt-- yet the only time I've ever had normal blood pressure without medicine was the 1 time I did a high fat/protein diet. I likely ate more salt-- on this diet and my BP normalized. I did lose weight but don't think that was related to normalizing my BP-- since I started out with high BP when I was skinny...
eliminate animal products and eat only whole plant foods. Get 45 - 60 min of full body sun exposure per week or take 5 - 7000 iu of Vit. D3 per day, plus take liquid Vit. B12 & Iodine (kelp) use liberal about of sea salt and spices. Lower Oil use and cut out fried foods. Lower blood pressure right away- Start with Beets for Nitric Oxide. Watermelon for Citrulline and Cocoa powder to lower blood pressure too. Just youtube/Google everything.
Take your dogmatic, cherry-picked, confirmation biased trash elsewhere. Just stop. To suggest that eliminating animal products altogether is based in science is intellectually dishonest. You say youtube/google everything, but if you followed that information and actually were honest with yourself, you might come to different conclusions. If you would like to eat less animal products for ethical reasons, so be it, but if you're doing it for purely health reasons, you're lying to yourself.
Tried the "low salt" mantra over a decade ago. Bloodwork at employer(twice per year) and my doc(twice per year) caught my sodium and chloride numbers going into the LOW zone. My doc suggested "sports drinks". Looked at the sugars in them and NOPE. ADDING SALT to EVERYTHING puts my sodium and chlorides into the "NORMAL" range. My brother has the same metabolism and same experience. His doc said "You might want to get heavy-handed with the salt shaker at meals to fix those two numbers". THANKS for your time and videos!
He is true genius. I went to doctor with high blood pressure in UK where you know they kind of know everything but backwards. Doctor told me to eat less salt, stop carnivore/keto diet, the pressure should be measured with arm relaxed down on table or even better hang down on the side of the body, when asked should I loose some weight answer was no it doesn't matter. I did everything exactly opposite what she said for 2 months and voila 120/70 from 183/110 😂. They were calling me all the time to stop what I was doing. First of all the kind of meter I explained to her I was using was put on the wrist, which only measure right when arm is upright on the level of the heart. This allone lowered pressure to 138/80. Then just continued high salt carnivore/ keto mixed diet. Lost deliberatelly 15kg in 3 weeks, lowering pressure to 123/70. Started to exercise 5 times a week for the rest of my life as totaly reconfigure my life. I know those doctors never actually fixed disise I have had apart from shingles which stop on their own after 2 weeks 😂. Living here, you need to be as healthy as possible as they never know what is wrong with you, especialy with cancer. Thats how it is in a country where you get job anyway you good or not, not need to have 3 faculties. They are as good as next guy in the pub
Low serum sodium levels is actually a very dangerous condition. Earlier this year when I had diverticulitis and I wasn’t eating much food and drinking a lot of fluids, my sodium level got so low that I had to go to the emergency room and the doctor told me that if it went any lower I would’ve died. That day I stopped and got some pizza which is high in sodium and had it. The next day I went in for a follow up blood draw and my sodium level was back to normal and I felt better.
Negative correlation doesn't disprove causation any more than positive correlation proves causation. They both suggest something but don't prove or disprove anything.
This information is soooo important but I really wish that this presentation was better quality. Please redo this some time. So we can read the slides better.
I like Dr. Fung, watching him is always eye-opening - and you get reminded to think for yourself, not only follow the herd. And he´s pretty enteraining, too. Only, did I miss the part: how much salt is recommended now? Low salt - high salt, I didn´t pick up the numbers, gramms / kg or something like that.
This guy cracks me up!!! The things he says are outrageous! If I am having a bad day I watch Dr. Fung. Where does he come up with the funny things he says! When he says s___ I cannot stop laughing!!! Love his information...😳😂❤️I love him and Dr. Berg.
Hey doc, can you look into the gluten intolerance issue? I have this feeling that the inability to not consume glutenin and gliadin are the symptoms and not the cause. Wheat bread has been consumed for centuries without issue. I'm just throwing out a hypothesis here but I think the wheat being grown today has some kind of property that disrupts digestion. FYI you seem to be one of the only doctors that actually questions the science.
I know this is old but in case someone else wonders : you're right that humans have consumed bread for centuries or more without problem but it wasn't the same wheat that we're using now and not the same amount of gluten inside it. I don't remember exactly the dates etc but to sum it up to help reduce starvation an experiment was made to cross breed different types of wheat so it would produce more, be smaller in hight so less damaged by the wind etc and easier to collect and also raise gluten in it because it makes it easier to work with for bakers etc (more elastic) Problem is wheat apparently is highly unstable when it mutates and by artificially cross breeding it they got it to mutate a lot, there is much more DNA in the new wheat than there was in the old one and part of it is 100% unknown to this day. The gluten protein also got drastically changed it became much bigger to the point where our digestive system cannot break it down to digest it so it goes intact into ther intestine and damages it.
Ghost 2960. The wheat we have today is very different than 50 years ago and the processing into flour is chemicaly detrimental. I am in my 70's and the bread is VERY different. (and not good anymore)
Look at his Aetiology of Obesity series. I don't remember which part (there are six) but he examines wheat for about 10-15 minutes. Might answer what you're looking for.
Salt washes away calcium from the body (and there is a scientific study that confirms that), so many think eating salt is bad. But doesn’t salt give bones firmness? Isn’t there the same controversy here - if I eat less salt I’ll save 1% calcium a year in my bones, but they will become super fragile and break more easily? I wish Dr. Fung raised that question as well
I do know I've a murmur to my heart as my dr I attend said why did the hospital tell you to worry you he said don't worry ann you l be fine thank dr flung for all your doing
It is not clear how the "salt intake" is measured in the various studies. Is it the blood work datum? Or is it the declared consumption of salt? It's easy to understand how can people with a higher salt consumption live longer: they cook at home and they "know" how much salt they use. The other people, the ones who consume less salt, or so they think, maybe eat more processed food or eat more often at the restaurant or at the canteen. They don't use the salt as an ingredient by they "intake" it probably more than the other guys. People who don't cook at home have maybe more cardiac events, and higher pressure, but don't really know how much salt they eat. In the other study, the one which is explicitly driven on urinary salt, we don't know how the sample was built: people who exercise has a higher salts consumption in general (including table salt) but their lower cardiovascular risk could be attributed to exercising, not to taking more salt. All those studies create more questions than they give answers.
I had a professor in graduate school who challenged a visiting presenter’s very high correlation related to vocabulary by stating, “Professor, There is also a very high correlation between a man’s height and his inseam. However, buying him longer pants will not increase his height by even an inch.” Scatter diagrams and regression crystallized in my mind on the spot.Real data means NO prejudice, in everything.
Wow, impressive. I never believed that salt was bad for the body. It is mainly about what type of salt. Highly refined Table Salt is not really healthy. And that is exactly what the doctor has not looked at: what type of salt someone consumes. You have Sea Salt, Rock Salt, Fleur de Sel, Kosher Salt and highly refined Table Salt. Did they all take the same salt?
R. Wils the studies refer to sodium levels excreted through urine I believe, which I am guessing, for most people, is basic table salt. Not some exotic Himalayan sea-salt
Yes on extended fasts eat salt and water for breakfast and apple cider vinegar before going to bed. This keeps the metabolism working normally while you are fasting. Never go more than two days MAX without any salt.
Absolutely its a must. Take good quality ( not Celtic salt it is polluted) salt as you need electrolyte that you dont get from food as you are on a fast. Allso take more salt if you have malabsorption as it increases osmosis and it will carry more nutrition with the salt thought the stomach and into cell.
Thanks for your talks Jason (dr Fung) I use a lot of salt as my body seems to always be asking and I have no issues with satisfying that want! 🥰🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
So basically you're saying that a lowered sodium intake leads to a reduced blood pressure, however the body wants to reach homeostasis (since BP was altered from the decrease in sodium intake) and therefore increases serum renin and aldosterone to supraphysiological levels, where it may cause a higher BP than normal, and thus an increased risk of developing CAD?
Jason Fung Thank you for the prompt response. As a new physiology and biomedical sciences graduate, I found this lecture, and your aetiology of diabesity lectures very understandable and it just seems to make sense as a whole. The problem nowadays is the idea of dietary fat intake leading to obesity and other associated diseases is so deeply ingrained in modern day society. I look at my previous lecturers that taught cardiovascular physiology no less and they aren't particularly in shape - maybe this is a poor argument against them, but at the same time, they taught that dietary fat was bad for health - a reflection of their lack of research in this complex subject perhaps. I'm also finding that the majority of other science graduates or students seem to just accept what "higher authority" tell them, or even just by looking results of journal articles with many citations. I guess I'm a bit jaded now with my opinions, but many people really just don't think for themselves any more. I wish you all the best regarding the sharing of this information. One day I hope to teach physiology and basic nutrition, and I will do my best to contribute in this direction. Thanks :)
NZPikachu Always listen to your common sense. I mean, if salt is as bad as they say, why do the Japanese with the highest salt consumption in the world by fat, have such a low mortality? If it doesn't make sense, dig deeper. Here's another. How is it that the saturated fats (animal fats, coconut oil) that we have eaten for hundreds of thousands of years be dangerous to us when purely artificial, highly processed modern corn oil is healthy? If animal fats were bad for us, wouldn't they have killed us already? This is just like the 1960's when we thought we could make a more nutritious infant formula than Mother Nature (breast milk). Unlikely. How can we be exercising more and more, as evidenced by epidemiological data, and still be getting fatter and fatter? Isn't exercise supposed to cure obesity? Or how about green coffee or raspberry ketones or acai berries or the latest wonder food. How likely is it that after 10,000 years of accumulated human wisdom, we suddenly in the year 2014 AD discover the miracle cure for everything? We somehow missed this miracle cure for the other 9,999 other years? Unlikely
Follow the money and you'll see what modern medicine's main interest is. Here's a hint: It's not your health. And I speak from experience as a diabetic for 14 years who was getting worse every year by following my doctor's advice. Seeing Dr. Fung's and Dr. Berry's and other's youtube videos saved my life. I thank God I came across them.
@@percyhawkins716 I thank God for that as well. I asked my endocrinologist about fighting resistance with insulin, she just brushed my question away. I have stopped injecting insulin, fast regularly, lose 20kg, and feel much alive now.
5:30 Graph on right not drawn correctly. This does not mean the data is wrong. Not logical. There is an even spread on the graph on the right indicating the graph is OK but the wrong high and low y axis values have been chosen which causes the funnel not to be centered. Distribution ok, graph wrongly drawn, bad conclusion drawn from wrongly drawn graph.
Interesting. While most people struggle with high BP, I have the opposite (usually around 85/60). I once passed out completely and had no strength to move when I came to. An ambulance was called and my blood pressure was around 70/40 and that had been after getting some strength back up. I’ve always been very lethargic. Maybe I need more salt.
This is why the first thing they do in hospital is to hang a bag of saline attached to your arm. Saline solution is basically electrolytes and water. You might need to hydrate more in addition to getting your electrolytes sorted.

Alderman has been strongly criticised for doing bad salt studies. Ignoring that, he only states that salt is good for healthy weight people, it is not good for overweight people. ndt.oxfordjournals.org/content/23/11/3382.full

Today's 9 ,29 there a study that come out to say when u fast u loose muscle...I think intermittent fasting is catching on your great work is getting rewarded .and there trying to squash the notion about intermittent fasting ..
You lose muscle every time you lose weight, but in studies it is 25% for regular dieting and 10% for fasting. And 0% for IF. And you gain muscle when you alternate day fast.
If we can lower the systolic marker, to a critical level, by holistically restricting salt, and in conjugation compensate for the increase in adolsterone and/or adrenaline by administering ace inhibitors and beta blockers respectively, then what else could be a better bet?
If you reduce your insulin your blood pressure will go down. Insuline forces the kidney to retain sodium and this is the root cause of most high blood pressure. When you take beta blockers you are on the road to t2 diabetes even with a good diet, and on average will be dead within a decade after you get there.
I had to see a urologist here in Ontario due to a kidney stone which has since past thank goodness. However he advised me to eat less meat and reduce salt as both cause kidney stones. Mine was made of calcium....So do I reduce salt?
Why is it publication bias if the majority of studies show a decrease in blood pressure? Wouldn't that be the expected result if salt reduction lowers blood pressure?
So what causes hyper tension if not salt. I have been on bp medication since last 10 years, and my weight has increased steadily..now my sugar is on rise as well. Just since last 10 days I did cut carb and sugar, lost 3 kgs. Should I stop bp medication as well?
Hi. Follow a whole good plant based diet.. No dairy products or meat.or any oils. You can expect results in less than week. That's how I cure hypertensives in my program without any medications.
@@drgoldhealthcare did you go on meds in the beginning? I went hypertensive and was in ER, given IV to drop it, and got prescribed. When would be a good time to get off the med
@@yeesintx well its takes less than a week to reduce blood pressure levels avoiding the animal foods, refined carbs, sugars and oil. Have plenty of fruits and vegetables with some green smoothie. You can reduce medications after 3 days and completely stop the medications once the BP is well under control.
I once had a heartiologist tell me to keep my salt intake at or below 1200 mg/day. I did. Ended up spending four days in the hospital for hyponatremia. Make sure you take lecithin caps to clean out your arteries, too. lynncapehartwellness.com blog 6 .
The main culprit with high blood pressure is high insulin levels, which most people suffer from these days, and this is actually a more serious disease than just high blood pressure, it is behind all metabolic conditions.
I am 64 years old and have been dealing with HBP (typically 150/90) nearly all of my adult life, after 3 days on the water-only fast my BP has gone down to normal levels in the range of 117-125 over 75-85. This story NEEDS telling, too many people needlessly at risk using hypertension drugs that for the most part are being taken needlessly!
The text on the slides is illegible, which makes it hard to evaluate Jason Fung's interpretation of the data. Some of us don't take what we are told for granted.
The stomach makes stomach acid with sodium chloride. The blood needs sodium as do the cells. Sodium is an electrolyte meaning needed for electrical functions in the body. Without sodium in the body you die 😳😳😳
Fung misses the point on sodium. The reality is that since other than the four populations mentioned everyone else in the world eats too much salt. And therefore trying to compare these groups makes no sense. Once you get past a certain threshold of sodium bad health follows. It's like cigarette smoking. Are you going to find a big difference if one group smokes four pack a day another smokes three packs? The answer is no. At that point the negative health benefits will depend on how resistance a particular group is to smoking. Certain groups will have a genetic predisposition to bad health at lower levels of smoking and another group will have greater resistance to the negative effects. It's the same with any poison. Once past a certain threshold of poison intake like arsenic you'll die. Some people more resistant will take longer to die from a certain level of poison intake than another group. That's the way salt works. With some people it will take longer to show up a negative health consequence. The fact that 72 to 83 percent (depending on which study you want to believe) of Americans over the age of 65 have high blood pressure, it would seem that the vast majority of people suffer negative consequences of their sodium intake.
7:30 Chart shows dozens of publications, only 2 of the publications cause any chance of publication bias, the people who did the meta study decided two eliminate those two studys. Fung's comment is a highly unscientific "because...I don't know why they did it.. this is stupid". This is also disingenuous because the authors of the meta-study highly likely stated why they remove two out many publications from the funnel plot.
What about diuretics? I heart someone in the audience asking about it. I couldn't hear the answer. Should diuretics not be prescribed on patients with a history of cvd? Thanks

I've heard my entire life that I need to limit salt-- yet the only time I've ever had normal blood pressure without medicine was the 1 time I did a high fat/protein diet. I likely ate more salt-- on this diet and my BP normalized. I did lose weight but don't think that was related to normalizing my BP-- since I started out with high BP when I was skinny...
eliminate animal products and eat only whole plant foods. Get 45 - 60 min of full body sun exposure per week or take 5 - 7000 iu of Vit. D3 per day, plus take liquid Vit. B12 & Iodine (kelp)
use liberal about of sea salt and spices. Lower Oil use and cut out fried foods.
Lower blood pressure right away- Start with Beets for Nitric Oxide. Watermelon for Citrulline and Cocoa powder to lower blood pressure too. Just youtube/Google everything.
Shenandoah maltz what are your qualifications please. Are you also a highly trained doctor?
Take your dogmatic, cherry-picked, confirmation biased trash elsewhere. Just stop. To suggest that eliminating animal products altogether is based in science is intellectually dishonest. You say youtube/google everything, but if you followed that information and actually were honest with yourself, you might come to different conclusions. If you would like to eat less animal products for ethical reasons, so be it, but if you're doing it for purely health reasons, you're lying to yourself.
Tried the "low salt" mantra over a decade ago. Bloodwork at employer(twice per year) and my doc(twice per year) caught my sodium and chloride numbers going into the LOW zone. My doc suggested "sports drinks". Looked at the sugars in them and NOPE. ADDING SALT to EVERYTHING puts my sodium and chlorides into the "NORMAL" range. My brother has the same metabolism and same experience. His doc said "You might want to get heavy-handed with the salt shaker at meals to fix those two numbers". THANKS for your time and videos!
He is true genius. I went to doctor with high blood pressure in UK where you know they kind of know everything but backwards. Doctor told me to eat less salt, stop carnivore/keto diet, the pressure should be measured with arm relaxed down on table or even better hang down on the side of the body, when asked should I loose some weight answer was no it doesn't matter.
I did everything exactly opposite what she said for 2 months and voila 120/70 from 183/110 😂. They were calling me all the time to stop what I was doing.
First of all the kind of meter I explained to her I was using was put on the wrist, which only measure right when arm is upright on the level of the heart. This allone lowered pressure to 138/80. Then just continued high salt carnivore/ keto mixed diet. Lost deliberatelly 15kg in 3 weeks, lowering pressure to 123/70. Started to exercise 5 times a week for the rest of my life as totaly reconfigure my life. I know those doctors never actually fixed disise I have had apart from shingles which stop on their own after 2 weeks 😂. Living here, you need to be as healthy as possible as they never know what is wrong with you, especialy with cancer.
Thats how it is in a country where you get job anyway you good or not, not need to have 3 faculties. They are as good as next guy in the pub
Low serum sodium levels is actually a very dangerous condition. Earlier this year when I had diverticulitis and I wasn’t eating much food and drinking a lot of fluids, my sodium level got so low that I had to go to the emergency room and the doctor told me that if it went any lower I would’ve died. That day I stopped and got some pizza which is high in sodium and had it. The next day I went in for a follow up blood draw and my sodium level was back to normal and I felt better.
Negative correlation doesn't disprove causation any more than positive correlation proves causation. They both suggest something but don't prove or disprove anything.
This information is soooo important but I really wish that this presentation was better quality. Please redo this some time. So we can read the slides better.
Wow, I am completely shocked. Boggles my mind why this is not common knowledge...
The best doctor..thanks for sharing 👍
I like Dr. Fung, watching him is always eye-opening - and you get reminded to think for yourself, not only follow the herd. And he´s pretty enteraining, too. Only, did I miss the part: how much salt is recommended now? Low salt - high salt, I didn´t pick up the numbers, gramms / kg or something like that.
thanks Doc Jason Fung for your help take care God bless
This guy cracks me up!!! The things he says are outrageous! If I am having a bad day I watch Dr. Fung. Where does he come up with the funny things he says! When he says s___ I cannot stop laughing!!! Love his information...😳😂❤️I love him and Dr. Berg.
Hey doc, can you look into the gluten intolerance issue? I have this feeling that the inability to not consume glutenin and gliadin are the symptoms and not the cause. Wheat bread has been consumed for centuries without issue. I'm just throwing out a hypothesis here but I think the wheat being grown today has some kind of property that disrupts digestion.
FYI you seem to be one of the only doctors that actually questions the science.
I know this is old but in case someone else wonders : you're right that humans have consumed bread for centuries or more without problem but it wasn't the same wheat that we're using now and not the same amount of gluten inside it.
I don't remember exactly the dates etc but to sum it up to help reduce starvation an experiment was made to cross breed different types of wheat so it would produce more, be smaller in hight so less damaged by the wind etc and easier to collect and also raise gluten in it because it makes it easier to work with for bakers etc (more elastic)
Problem is wheat apparently is highly unstable when it mutates and by artificially cross breeding it they got it to mutate a lot, there is much more DNA in the new wheat than there was in the old one and part of it is 100% unknown to this day.
The gluten protein also got drastically changed it became much bigger to the point where our digestive system cannot break it down to digest it so it goes intact into ther intestine and damages it.
Ghost 2960. The wheat we have today is very different than 50 years ago and the processing into flour is chemicaly detrimental. I am in my 70's and the bread is VERY different. (and not good anymore)
Look at his Aetiology of Obesity series. I don't remember which part (there are six) but he examines wheat for about 10-15 minutes. Might answer what you're looking for.
Ghost 2960 serology part 5 he addresses wheat for 15 minutes hybrid wheat is very close to refined sugar
The thing that disrupts our digestion (microbiome) is glyphosate (round up) which is used in obscene amounts in America, on our crops.
Hey Dr Fung. Keep up the great work. Ur helping and healing our minds first that we can understand how to our bodies 🙂✌️💯
Salt washes away calcium from the body (and there is a scientific study that confirms that), so many think eating salt is bad. But doesn’t salt give bones firmness? Isn’t there the same controversy here - if I eat less salt I’ll save 1% calcium a year in my bones, but they will become super fragile and break more easily? I wish Dr. Fung raised that question as well
I do know I've a murmur to my heart as my dr I attend said why did the hospital tell you to worry you he said don't worry ann you l be fine thank dr flung for all your doing
A great presentation with poor graphics for the video viewer. i would like to see a redo with graphics better presented snd explained.
I use pink salt or Celtic sea salt. Sprinkle a little on your food. They taste saltier and have minerals.
It is not clear how the "salt intake" is measured in the various studies. Is it the blood work datum? Or is it the declared consumption of salt? It's easy to understand how can people with a higher salt consumption live longer: they cook at home and they "know" how much salt they use. The other people, the ones who consume less salt, or so they think, maybe eat more processed food or eat more often at the restaurant or at the canteen. They don't use the salt as an ingredient by they "intake" it probably more than the other guys. People who don't cook at home have maybe more cardiac events, and higher pressure, but don't really know how much salt they eat.
In the other study, the one which is explicitly driven on urinary salt, we don't know how the sample was built: people who exercise has a higher salts consumption in general (including table salt) but their lower cardiovascular risk could be attributed to exercising, not to taking more salt. All those studies create more questions than they give answers.
I had a professor in graduate school who challenged a visiting presenter’s very high correlation related to vocabulary by stating, “Professor, There is also a very high correlation between a man’s height and his inseam. However, buying him longer pants will not increase his height by even an inch.” Scatter diagrams and regression crystallized in my mind on the spot.Real data means NO prejudice, in everything.
Wow, impressive. I never believed that salt was bad for the body. It is mainly about what type of salt. Highly refined Table Salt is not really healthy.
And that is exactly what the doctor has not looked at: what type of salt someone consumes.
You have Sea Salt, Rock Salt, Fleur de Sel, Kosher Salt and highly refined Table Salt.
Did they all take the same salt?
R. Wils the studies refer to sodium levels excreted through urine I believe, which I am guessing, for most people, is basic table salt. Not some exotic Himalayan sea-salt
Should I be consuming salt during an extended fast? How much?
Nathan Robarge. The body needs salt especially when sweating an in hot weather. People die in the heat because of salt restrictions
yes
Yes on extended fasts eat salt and water for breakfast and apple cider vinegar before going to bed. This keeps the metabolism working normally while you are fasting. Never go more than two days MAX without any salt.
I add salt to my coffee . I use “low salt” it has both potassium and sodium salts .
Absolutely its a must. Take good quality ( not Celtic salt it is polluted) salt as you need electrolyte that you dont get from food as you are on a fast. Allso take more salt if you have malabsorption as it increases osmosis and it will carry more nutrition with the salt thought the stomach and into cell.
Thanks for your talks Jason (dr Fung) I use a lot of salt as my body seems to always be asking and I have no issues with satisfying that want! 🥰🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Could u please give advice on how to lower cholesterol naturally
Eat less grains and it'll go down.
People with the highest LDL live the longest. It's low triglycerides and higher HDL that you want. See Dr Paul Mason's videos on cholesterol.
Thank you Dr. Fung.
So basically you're saying that a lowered sodium intake leads to a reduced blood pressure, however the body wants to reach homeostasis (since BP was altered from the decrease in sodium intake) and therefore increases serum renin and aldosterone to supraphysiological levels, where it may cause a higher BP than normal, and thus an increased risk of developing CAD?
Yes. Lowering sodium intake has other consequences. One is lower blood pressure. Another is higher renin and aldosterone.
Jason Fung Thank you for the prompt response. As a new physiology and biomedical sciences graduate, I found this lecture, and your aetiology of diabesity lectures very understandable and it just seems to make sense as a whole.
The problem nowadays is the idea of dietary fat intake leading to obesity and other associated diseases is so deeply ingrained in modern day society.
I look at my previous lecturers that taught cardiovascular physiology no less and they aren't particularly in shape - maybe this is a poor argument against them, but at the same time, they taught that dietary fat was bad for health - a reflection of their lack of research in this complex subject perhaps.
I'm also finding that the majority of other science graduates or students seem to just accept what "higher authority" tell them, or even just by looking results of journal articles with many citations.
I guess I'm a bit jaded now with my opinions, but many people really just don't think for themselves any more.
I wish you all the best regarding the sharing of this information. One day I hope to teach physiology and basic nutrition, and I will do my best to contribute in this direction.
Thanks :)
NZPikachu Always listen to your common sense. I mean, if salt is as bad as they say, why do the Japanese with the highest salt consumption in the world by fat, have such a low mortality? If it doesn't make sense, dig deeper.
Here's another. How is it that the saturated fats (animal fats, coconut oil) that we have eaten for hundreds of thousands of years be dangerous to us when purely artificial, highly processed modern corn oil is healthy? If animal fats were bad for us, wouldn't they have killed us already? This is just like the 1960's when we thought we could make a more nutritious infant formula than Mother Nature (breast milk). Unlikely.
How can we be exercising more and more, as evidenced by epidemiological data, and still be getting fatter and fatter? Isn't exercise supposed to cure obesity?
Or how about green coffee or raspberry ketones or acai berries or the latest wonder food. How likely is it that after 10,000 years of accumulated human wisdom, we suddenly in the year 2014 AD discover the miracle cure for everything? We somehow missed this miracle cure for the other 9,999 other years? Unlikely
NZPikachu
Thank you Dr Jason
Still the WHO recommends to consume no salt in the food
The WHO are corrupt, and it makes me mad that the current Oval Office Seat Warmer decided to fund them again.
After listening to the talk, I am in the state of shock. What happened to the world of medicine?
its a money hungry business nothing health related.
Follow the money and you'll see what modern medicine's main interest is. Here's a hint: It's not your health. And I speak from experience as a diabetic for 14 years who was getting worse every year by following my doctor's advice. Seeing Dr. Fung's and Dr. Berry's and other's youtube videos saved my life. I thank God I came across them.
@@percyhawkins716 I thank God for that as well. I asked my endocrinologist about fighting resistance with insulin, she just brushed my question away. I have stopped injecting insulin, fast regularly, lose 20kg, and feel much alive now.

5:30 Graph on right not drawn correctly. This does not mean the data is wrong.
Not logical.
There is an even spread on the graph on the right indicating the graph is OK but the wrong high and low y axis values have been chosen which causes the funnel not to be centered.
Distribution ok, graph wrongly drawn, bad conclusion drawn from wrongly drawn graph.
Jason means healer in Greek. His parents knew....
Interesting. While most people struggle with high BP, I have the opposite (usually around 85/60). I once passed out completely and had no strength to move when I came to. An ambulance was called and my blood pressure was around 70/40 and that had been after getting some strength back up. I’ve always been very lethargic. Maybe I need more salt.
This is why the first thing they do in hospital is to hang a bag of saline attached to your arm. Saline solution is basically electrolytes and water. You might need to hydrate more in addition to getting your electrolytes sorted.

Should we all be using Spirolactone for our blood pressure issues? I'm confused.
Dr. Fung.. is salt intake bad for kidneys?
yes and for the brain
The researchers found that high levels of dietary salt caused a chemical change to a protein called tau. This change-phosphorylation-can cause tau to clump together in the brain. Clumps of tau are linked with some dementias, such as Alzheimer's disease.
He is a nephrologist and says no.
No. People on carnivore diet and who eat lots of salt have reversed their kidney disease and even gotten off hemodialysis.
Alderman has been strongly criticised for doing bad salt studies. Ignoring that, he only states that salt is good for healthy weight people, it is not good for overweight people.

Jason Fung? More like Jason YOUNG
Thanks man
According to Dr. Fung, it is not always a good idea to consume less salt. I would like to know which are the natural ways to lower blood pressure.
Lose weight
If you get your insulin low your blood pressure will be low.
Am confused dr flung about all this subject
Based on the reviewed studies, what WOULD be the recommended daily allowance of salt for those following the CRAP diet? How about for those following ketogenic/intermittent fasting diet?
for keto you have to consume way more salt since you can't retain it. I think it was around 5000
Thanks. Can you point me to a research study on this? I appreciate your help!

thank u
Please make a video on iodised salt, himalayan salt and such modern salt theories. Very confusing iodised is good or bad or needed
Today's 9 ,29 there a study that come out to say when u fast u loose muscle...I think intermittent fasting is catching on your great work is getting rewarded .and there trying to squash the notion about intermittent fasting ..
I fast for 20 hours every day and weight lift and I can assure you that they’re lying, complete bullshit. Lol
You lose muscle every time you lose weight, but in studies it is 25% for regular dieting and 10% for fasting. And 0% for IF. And you gain muscle when you alternate day fast.
Thanks!
If we can lower the systolic marker, to a critical level, by holistically restricting salt, and in conjugation compensate for the increase in adolsterone and/or adrenaline by administering ace inhibitors and beta blockers respectively, then what else could be a better bet?
If you reduce your insulin your blood pressure will go down. Insuline forces the kidney to retain sodium and this is the root cause of most high blood pressure. When you take beta blockers you are on the road to t2 diabetes even with a good diet, and on average will be dead within a decade after you get there.
I had to see a urologist here in Ontario due to a kidney stone which has since past thank goodness. However he advised me to eat less meat and reduce salt as both cause kidney stones. Mine was made of calcium....So do I reduce salt?
Robin Wallace research keto, sugar is often the cause of kidney stones. No sugar, no grains
No bread, no pasta
Watch Dr Berry’s and Dr Bergs videos on the topic of kidney stones. Calcium is correct, not salt.
Eat red fatty meat and don't decrease your salt intake. Just don't use table salt. that's isn't real salt.
No options for like , sharing
Why is it publication bias if the majority of studies show a decrease in blood pressure? Wouldn't that be the expected result if salt reduction lowers blood pressure?
The ones that are published are the ones they decided to publish to push a narrative instead of just publishing what was actually found.
So what causes hyper tension if not salt. I have been on bp medication since last 10 years, and my weight has increased steadily..now my sugar is on rise as well. Just since last 10 days I did cut carb and sugar, lost 3 kgs. Should I stop bp medication as well?
Eat more salt
Hi. Follow a whole good plant based diet.. No dairy products or meat.or any oils. You can expect results in less than week. That's how I cure hypertensives in my program without any medications.
@@drgoldhealthcare talks about confrontation bias, do you believe that crap that has been drilled into your head!🤠
@@drgoldhealthcare did you go on meds in the beginning? I went hypertensive and was in ER, given IV to drop it, and got prescribed. When would be a good time to get off the med
@@yeesintx well its takes less than a week to reduce blood pressure levels avoiding the animal foods, refined carbs, sugars and oil. Have plenty of fruits and vegetables with some green smoothie. You can reduce medications after 3 days and completely stop the medications once the BP is well under control.
What about water retention due to salt. Can you please post a video on this
czcams.com/video/5JSirGSCuNE/video.html
I once had a heartiologist tell me to keep my salt intake at or below 1200 mg/day. I did. Ended up spending four days in the hospital for hyponatremia. Make sure you take lecithin caps to clean out your arteries, too. lynncapehartwellness.com blog 6 .
So what is the solution for someone who has constant high blood pressure and under medication?
You can try intermittent fasting, and maybe lowering carbs slowly and see if it helps.
So the real question is . . . how do you actually lower your BP?!
Fasting, proper supplementation.
Lower your insulin, that's what's really behind hypertension.
Losartin
The main culprit with high blood pressure is high insulin levels, which most people suffer from these days, and this is actually a more serious disease than just high blood pressure, it is behind all metabolic conditions.
I am 64 years old and have been dealing with HBP (typically 150/90) nearly all of my adult life, after 3 days on the water-only fast my BP has gone down to normal levels in the range of 117-125 over 75-85. This story NEEDS telling, too many people needlessly at risk using hypertension drugs that for the most part are being taken needlessly!
Do we know that the low salt diet people aren't on a low salt diet because they have poor cardiovascular health, and are trying to avoid salt?
Because they look at people from tribal societies not elderly americans

@morgaine...AMEN
Great video you deserve a cookie
11:41 even a high schooler knows better than to draw that line...
I feel better without salt so this info does not apply to everyone. I do Keto/Omad with very low sodium and I feel much better .
The stomach makes stomach acid with sodium chloride. The blood needs sodium as do the cells. Sodium is an electrolyte meaning needed for electrical functions in the body. Without sodium in the body you die 😳😳😳
I never smoked dr flung
Fung misses the point on sodium. The reality is that since other than the four populations mentioned everyone else in the world eats too much salt. And therefore trying to compare these groups makes no sense. Once you get past a certain threshold of sodium bad health follows. It's like cigarette smoking. Are you going to find a big difference if one group smokes four pack a day another smokes three packs? The answer is no. At that point the negative health benefits will depend on how resistance a particular group is to smoking. Certain groups will have a genetic predisposition to bad health at lower levels of smoking and another group will have greater resistance to the negative effects. It's the same with any poison. Once past a certain threshold of poison intake like arsenic you'll die. Some people more resistant will take longer to die from a certain level of poison intake than another group. That's the way salt works. With some people it will take longer to show up a negative health consequence. The fact that 72 to 83 percent (depending on which study you want to believe) of Americans over the age of 65 have high blood pressure, it would seem that the vast majority of people suffer negative consequences of their sodium intake.
Your logic is so flawed, it's ridiculous
7:30 Chart shows dozens of publications, only 2 of the publications cause any chance of publication bias, the people who did the meta study decided two eliminate those two studys.
Fung's comment is a highly unscientific "because...I don't know why they did it.. this is stupid". This is also disingenuous because the authors of the meta-study highly likely stated why they remove two out many publications from the funnel plot.
Are you familiar with the central limit theorem from statistics? This is precisely why those studies should not have been removed.
They're just blaming salt for the mess the cheese burger and pizza left behind!
I like to eat a 1/4 cup of salt while reading in the evening.
