In today’s episode, Dr. Fung and I dive deep into some topics discussed in his new book, The Cancer Code, to learn the science behind the disease and how our diet and fasting can play a role in managing and even preventing us from getting cancer.
“The seed of cancer may exist in all of us, but the power to change the soil is in our hands.” - Dr. Fung
We had such an incredible conversation that I just had to split this interview into two parts! You’re definitely going to want to stick around for part two on Wednesday - Dr. Fung is bringing the science, wisdom, and inspiration we need to take control of our health. Let’s go!

*** high insulin locks your fat burning capability! Stop eating and let your body use it’s fat as fuel. That’s why it’s there!!!!
Biggest take away is how many guests are willing to stray from their area of expertise. They want to be helpful i get that, but i love the very rare occasion when a guest says "i don't know". I have a lot of respect for people who know, what they don't know.
Stress and trauma a leading cause of cancer
@@caro12345ification New York times typical lying click bait headlines. The study had people eating from 12 midday until late in the day 8pm. There is no time restricted protocol in the world calling for this crazy time window. This study referenced was designed to fail, and yet the fasters still managed to lose some weight. Time restricted eating increases stem cell production and autophagy. There is benefits well beyond simple weight loss.

I’m the living human experiment of what Dr Fung is saying. I always ate healthy and was fit. Two years ago I was diagnosed with cancer. When I spoke to my oncologist about diet I was told they weren’t researching that. I wasn’t satisfied with the answer and have adopted a fasting lifestyle, eating organic and focusing on wellbeing. I feel great and am cancer free! This is truly the future of health. Thank you Lewis and Dr. Fung. I will make reference to this video often.
Congratulations, prayed and keep strong!!!!
Look into Carnivora
snacking is particularly American. Italians do not snack . ive lived there many years and its just not really in the culture.
Amazing! I pray ypu are blessed with health and remain free
Congratulations. I have heard this so many times. I too am recovering from cancer. In the last three months I’ve embraced a Keto lifestyle combined with intermittent fasting. I’ve lost 18 pounds, my energy levels are way up and mood swings are further and further apart.....so it has also helped with menopause symptoms.
I’m 7 1/2 years cancer free. I believe lifestyle is the biggest contributor .
Congrats on 7.5 yrs, Dawn!!
I'm proud of you Dawn
8 years cancer free here
what did you do
Very happy for you Dawn! Please help others. Much love. xx
I fasted for 5 days and on the 5th night, I was absolutely wired. I was compelled to write down dozens of business ideas and kept jumping out of bed to write more, all night long. Amazing experience.
need to try that!!!
and if business was not your central focus but instead your focus was a god or enlightenment or even Transcendental Meditation.... whoa, what a trip that would've been!
Tesla fasted and so did Einstein think about it
I suppose the millions who were starving throughout the centuries must have been incredible intellects since they ate much less than modern stomachs of today. Sounds more like you were having a manic episode, please seek medical advice.
@@nynphose except that there's a major physiological difference between an extended fast and starvation... check the science
5 food to elimate
1. Sugar
2.white bread, refined grains
3. Refined oils
4. Refined meats
5. Frequency of eating
Tf are refined meats? Examples please
@@GoatReactz actually its "processed meat" for example, hotdogs, burger,chorizo,salami, ham, etc.
@@Konek1123 thankyou
And processed food of course !
Thank you 😊
After losing 130 lbs by cutting out grains, sugar and keeping other carb extremely low my cancer shrunk in half. This occurred in about 7 months.
This is wonderful! Blessings to you.
Bless you..
incredible
@C M congratulations on your success. I believe the term for what you experienced is called "starving the cancer" can be done via a 200-day water fast or 1 year extreme carbohydrates/sugars reduction to range of 1-4 grams daily.
Hope you fully recover🥰
I respect the heck out of doctors that go against the status quo. These are the people actually “practicing”
@Melissa Noelle Have you heard of German New Medicine?
@@danya-louise no, I haven’t
yesss! totally agree
and not deep in the pockets of Big Pharma
Same here! Facts💯
I had stage 3 tripple negative breast cancer when I was 25. I had not heard anything about intermittent fasting back then but studies were coming out about diet and cancer. Specifically eating a more plant based diet. I won't lie, I thought I was gonna die and leave my 3 year old behind or the cancer would travel to my brain. I started eating more plant based and ate fish now and again. I'm on year 14 cancer free after bring told the cancer had a very high chance of coming back after 2 years. I cried when the oncologist released me after 10 years. I even got pregnant 3 times and had 2 babies when they said it would be almost impossible for me. They are 5 and 3 years old now.
Side note, my 5 year old goes to school and only gets lunch. They don't get to eat anything else until they come home.
I'm so happy for you! Sounds like you're a fantastic mother too. Here's to your health!
So proud of you, I developed Diabetes while I was diagnosed with TB, within 6 months with diet and fasting I lost weight and no medication for diabetes.
I'm nine days into intermittent fasting 18/6. Cut out carbs and sugars. Have watched a load of these videos and have had my eyes opened to the lies we are told about diets. its early days but have already lost 6lbs and feel amazing.
Would love to hear an update!
So 6 months later...total loss far of 35lb. Not much. But its all I needed to loose anyway. Very 😊 happy.
@@carolhug1 35 lbs is a lot. Good job 👍🏼
@@carolhug1 how old are you? I think you’d benefit more from a long period of fasting. I do 20:4 and have seen major benefit of fasting just a little but longer. Well done! Keep it up
@@bradnelson645 thanks. I'm pretty much doing OMAD now. Though on weekends I might have 2 meals depending on what's going on.
Dr. Fung is literally an encyclopedia of honest, raw knowledge on the benefits of fasting, but the penetrating and pointed questions of Lewis truly make this interview come alive. I’ve seen Dr. Fung in many formats. This one was my favorite. Thank you both. 🙏🏽
Cool
Thank you so much for sharing your opinion. It is my first time watching a long interview with Dr Fung.
Dr. Simoncini, KNOWS xancer is a fungus. He knows what it is, he is honest, and he had cured it for over 25 years with simple, non toxic, backing soda. Why would baking sodium bicarbonate work: BECAUSE CANCER IS A FUNGUS. Pass it on, please. Save lives. They don't want this out ;-)
Absolutely second that!!
@@MattGalter I've heard the baking soda theory before but I've doubts about cancer being that simple. His would you get the baking soda to the point where the cancer is located. The problem with alkalizing the body via any food is the stomach needs to be very acidic to digest or utilise minerals etc. What Dr fung is teaching, it is much better to prevent cancer by reducing the hours we eat plus fasting so that the body had a chance to clear out unnecessary junk (detoxify). I would guess it is dangerous to live long term in a constant state of candida over growth which I someone suffer from myself, It could possibly lead to cancer.
1:34:00 Regarding fasting and eating unhealthy foods : one of the cool things is that by doing alternate day fasting, I can save a lot of money on my fasted days, which I can spend on more high quality foods when I do eat
like save the shitty supermarket food and buy some MCD next time
@@sugaciu5908 What is MCD ?
I just buy better cuts of meat and organic, grass-fed if it's available.
Though lately, my quest has been to find beef liver (as in fresh) . It's not expensive, it's just not sold often in my supermarket as it's not popular.
@@kdemetter Shame, it's one of the widely available meats here in Zimbabwe. We also only do grass fed beef here.
This is exactly what I do
Spend it on Silver, other than time & health it’s the most undervalued asset on the planet.
I am a registered nurse who has been studying this topic for about six months. I thought I knew most of what there was to know, but I learned so very much from this interview. If this was accepted by mainstream medicine and the public at large, we could save and prolong so many lives and drastically reduce healthcare costs in America and the world. Thank you, Lewis and Dr. Fung!
You're welcome,thank you for being here 🧡
definitely .I just realized this , in the last week and I'm already on my 5th day of IF
@@anitaknight3915 💯
“Breakfast is the most important meal of the day” - said the cereal manufacturer.
🤣😂🤣
Breakfast is the most important meal! It's important to break a fast... And that's why it's important to START a fast!
That's what I was going to say, breakfast is the most important, it just doesn't need to be the moment you open your eyes, within 10 hours of your past meal, haha, marketing tricks.
I also say so, yet I shall add “only if it’s the only meal of the day”
true ! If u don’t have it , cereal manufacture will get ill .. so it is most important meal !!
Dr Fung has changed my family’s life. I will never be the same. Found him 2 years ago and it’s been uphill from here. My son lost 62 pounds in 3 months, just following his method. I am no longer per-diabetic and feel better than ever.
So Awesome, what did you do?
@@Ive222 I intermittent fast daily. 16/8. Then, once a week, I fast for 45 hours.
@@marieclaire90210 Thank you for answering.
@@sethmason5682 k
Downhill? Lol. And good for you guys!! I love when the fam joins in, that's awesome!!
This guy is amazing. Mega honest. No fads. Just fasting, fasting, fasting. Dude has saved lives.
I have done intermittent fasting for almost 4 years now. I dropped 40 pounds. I'm 6'1 170 pounds now. My body fat has stayed consistently around 12.5%. I Am 66 years old and I feel better than I did when I was 40.
I bike around 1500 miles a year and I ski. I eat healthy, no beef no pork, low carbs but I still drink beer and I also eat ice cream occasionally. I start every day with a pot of coffer and Half and Half. I don't eat food until about 2:00 sometimes later. My weight stays the same. I have been telling people who ask me about why I am in such great shape about Jason Fung and IF. I have sent out links to videos etc. Not a single person I know has acted on this and used this information. Everybody is all talk. I have given up trying to help people by telling them about IF. It is so easy to do yet it seems that people just can't wrap their brain around it. I don't get it.
interestingly, my household member would prohibit me to take IF
@@mzv_studio8649 Here"s a quick way to lose over 120 pounds in no time. Get rid of your "household member".
@@gimmeagig nah mate, I'm 17, it will br outrageous and immoral if I do that.
I know what you mean! 😊
@@mzv_studio8649 It is ultimately up to you. They can't forcefeed you. But do get your doctor to help you stay healthy during the process. Don't let ANYONE dictate your decisions, but use what they can teach you, and listen to your body and what IT needs! You can talk to your parents and get them to understand and back you up... after all, it will save them money, and in the end, it will save them doctor bills!
I just mentioned I was fasting to coworkers and immediate response was "You'll ruin your metabolism". My response: "Noted", and pressed on with my day. This is awesome "truthful" information. Thank you Lewis and Dr. Fung for this great session.
Cool story bro
How funny my family thinks if you do this it will be detrimental to your health…☹️ they just don’t understand…
I wonder what the sheep...er your coworkers would have said if you told them you are thinking of opening your own business.
Rule number one of the fasting club.. don't talk about it! 😂
Love it! Thank you for giving me the perfect response to the naysayers in my life!
You asked really good questions. Love this guy. He’s changing the world. We’ve all been so brainwashed in regard to food. I don’t tell anyone I’m fasting if they ask me why I’m not eating lunch I say a ate a huge breakfast. People are very ignorant and I’m lazy lol. Keep up the great work.
Same.. I don't even have the energy and patiance to hear all the same ignorant things people say, I just fast and keep it to myself..
same here, I use to explained to them and tell them the health the benefit of it and encourage them to research about it but no one not even one person was willing to give it a thought, most of them made fun of it , even one said "yea, yea maybe there will be a research telling us about the health benefit of smoking also " since then I just say I had a breakfast hahhaha
I don’t know how you all fast. It’s awesome but I haven’t been able to do it. 14 hours tops for me ...and I do workout daily but you all probably do too.
I do the same....even if i have to skip a workout i still feel ok because i had fasted.. 10-6 or 11-7..its the job hrs. Of eating per say..
@@jas7036 try to drink tea or coffee or even plain water whenever u feel u reached ur limit u will feel better within few mins ur hunger will go away after drinking those. At least that how it works for me
I am one meal day for over three years now. I feel better at 53 than I did at 30 years old. I can’t thank Dr Fung enough for this life style.
i was on IF and was doing great and then covid hit and i went back to my regular 3 meals a day and snacking. I went back to IF since February this year and lost 8 lbs already and feel very good! I realize IF is a lifestyle and it makes me eat healthy whole foods.
What do you eat during your one meal?
Same story... Back to the IF !
I've done two meals a day and gained weight from it. I eat 3 meals a day and I don't gain weight. Since starting iodine supplementation (I don't eat shellfish), two years ago, and stopping my thyroid medicine (levothyroxine), two months ago. I have lost 10lbs in 2 months; I'm down to 118lbs. I'm not even trying to lose weight. I still do IF from 5:30pm to 7am. Everybody is different based on their body type.
@@jenniferbecca3050 IF isn't for everybody you don t need to be a jerk
I lost 160 pounds because of Dr. Fung and kept it off for 4 yrs. I'm 50 now and I've never felt better in my whole life. My skin looks great, my joints feel amazing. Thanks Dr. Fung and Maria Emmerich!
You are inspirational!
What you did to lost the weight
@@michellegoodridge3505 followed Dr. Fung’s advice- that’s why the poster is thanking him.
@@Here_Today_There is more than one way to fast. It's still a matter of finding what works best for the individual. So be nice ❤
@@pamelamohn5931 it is nice, and succinct. It was literally the answer w/ no judgement.
“Fasting is FREE”.
It’s worked for me.
Fasting, going hungry and not eating is not always easy for everyone. It's a social thing like smoking. Eating meals with family is a traditional thing. Americans are conditioned to eating 3 meals per day which we all thought was healthiest for us.
One day ..Nobel Prize for Dr.Fung
Yes i think the same God bless you Dr Fung
Wish we had more physicians like Dr. Fung. May God continue to bless him for helping others become healthy
Yes please!
Yes there should be a Nobel Prize for Nephrology. 😘

I'm so grateful and very blessed, I reversed my diabetes because of fasting and autophogy. I almost fainted a few times during this process but I kept pushing and now, I no longer have diabetes. I can't thank Doctors like this enough. Autophagy really is the healing miracle of man kind.
Congratulations x
Goodjob i hope i can do it too
Salamat sa Dios🥰💚
How long did you have diabetes for?
Me too!! So thankful for fasting and the zero carb way of eating!! ❤️
Dr. Fung is so good at explaining. I agree that his analogies are great. I reversed my t2 diabetes, lost 4½ inches off my waist, lost 60lbs, cut my triglycerides in half, healed my fatty liver, and have never felt better. Just by changing my way of eating and adding intermittent fasting.I love what he said about the immune system, too. Smart man.
Do you eat low carbs?
I also have the same result. I shed 44 pounds and now free from type 2 diabetes, fatty liver, gall bladder stone, hyper tension, high cholesterol etc stopped taking medicines.
how long did this take ?
When I don't eat or drastically cut calories, I become weak and shakey. Almost to the point of not being able to function.
Of course they do
This ought to be interesting considering I was diagnosed w/ T2D w/ HBP in Sep, found Keto & IF (19+ hours per day) and first got my A1C from 10.8 down to 5.4 within 6 months and maintaining it since. No more HBP or Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and lost 90 pounds so far. Not bad for a 57 year old woman who is way past meno with a dead metabolism.
Good for u🇦🇺👍
Yeah, I'm 64, I hear you.
Soul sista~!
We're you able to quit taking any meds? I'm 66 and have been doing IF for almost a year and I have noted that a LOT of body and joint pains have gone away. I was able to go off of my cholesterol medication and my non stop heartburn is gone so no more Omeprazole... which I had been taking daily for 3 years.
Wow!!! 👏🏼
Dt. Fung is a gifted physician who truly cares about making his patients well. He has helped millions!
Were all truly Blessed to have him help us..
Amazing man, doctor!
(Educate us)
I have followed dr fung’s recommations for 2 months. I’m down 18 lbs , off blood sugar and bp medication. I’m only getting started but have had better results in 2 months than in 15 years of old classic recommendations that I did follow.
Thanks for sharing your story. So motivating!
Yes, thank you for sharing your story.
don't go off your bp meds without talking to / seeing your doctor, Brandie.
Hope you're still crushing it.
I got off the diabetes meds and my bp went to normal. For 15 years my doctor tried to get me on bp meds and I refused. Go figure!
Love listening to Dr. Fung. Listening to him during my fast actually helps me continue 😂
Doing that right now
Same
Lewis pays attention, actively interacts and asks intelligent question relating to the topic at hand and at the end of the interview is STILL interested and paying attention which shows huge respect to his guest. I started fasting because of the info here. Thank you.
First time watching Lewis, I am a huge fN now!
When Dr. Fung spoke about the misconception of needing food for thought, it reminded me of Daniel from the Bible living in captivity in Babylon. He refused to eat the king's food. This is now called the Daniel Diet. During this form of fasting he demonstrated a higher cognitive ability than the others who were eating the food provided by the King.
kings food as in burger king?
Correct !!!!!
You are dead on! 🙏💖
Amen
That's the first time I've understood why fasting doesn't put a person into starvation mode but reducing calories does. Dr Fung is excellent.
I was confused at what the difference was?
The starvation premise is bunk, too many people throughout the world deals with food insecurity.
After 20 fasts I avg. 700 calories. That is starvation. My hair is gonna fall out. I am losing a lot of weight. If I start eating more .. it'll come right back on very quickly.
We need more doctors like Dr. Jason Fung and Dr. Pradip Jamnadas to tell it like it is. Thank you!!!!!
After scary sugar crashes, inspired by Dr. Jason Fung, I eliminated carbs and sugar. My new diet is 100% green vegetables, butter, cheese, and nuts - a total of 30g of net carbohydrates per day. (I have severe allergies to fish and can't stomach meat)
For 3 months, I ate twice a day, starting at 1PM. The sugar crashes vanished instantly. It was tough at first; I felt weak and dizzy for a few days. I was worried I was diabetic, and was trying to reverse it.
It's amazing how our bodies adapt. I can't imagine going back to a high carb diet and felt great once after the first couple of weeks. I lost 20 lbs, which was unintentional as I was already 10 lbs underweight according to the standard BMI charts.
I felt something shift in my body at the 3 month point. I was hungrier and ate more, but my glucose levels remained at 75-85.
I took the AC1 test this week, and got '5'. The doctor said I'm not diabetc! I think I was, and reversed it with the diet.
Last week, I added blueberries and beans to my diet, and started having 3 meals per day. Glucose levels remain low. Today, I tried to eliminate snacking because I end up snacking non stop, just like Dr. Fung discusses in this clip. Today was hard, I felt faint cutting down on snacks. This diet works, but take it very slow because it can be an adjustment.
This Dr. knows what he's talking about. Although I don't agree with the meat/fish endorsement because in my case, it always makes me feel ill and lethargic, and I have horrific allergic reactions to seafood/fish/chicken.
This man is a genius! I started fasting because of him, and the health improvement is amazing. OMAD is a game charger, I'm doing it and I love it, almost at my goal weight and when I get there I'll continue with OMAD for the health benefits and weight maintenance! Thanks Dr. Fung! 🙏💙
That's awesome! I'm on day 2 of 20/4 IF
I'll definitely do this. I've always been fit my whole life, even after having my kids. A year into the pandemic and quarantines, I am now 15 kilos over my ideal weight. Already started 16:8 and will then slowly do OMAD after hearing all of the benefits. I feel more motivated than ever seeing and hearing all of the benefits!
Did you lose weight mainly bc of calorie deficit bc the window is so small?
@@Fattiapples I don't count calories, I just make sure I have a big meal, lots of fatty meat and eggs, and occasionally some greens and fruit! And exercise regularly!
He's one in a million!!
We need more doctors like this ,who is not looking to make $$ only ,but is trying to help others 😊👏👏
lmao
Dr. Mcdougall is the same way. Check out his website
And nobody would have known these facts back 20 or 40 years ago. The food industry would have paid to ban this man from the air or called him a quack just to make sure nobody believed him. Most people thought they had to eat 3 meals a day (plus all their poisonous processed foods) to stay healthy. We were completely dumb about food.
You just said Doctor that sun gives you cancer /but I’ve being told to sit in the sun it’s the best medicine .who do I believe ..
Dr Fung is one of few doctors in the US who honestly cares about patients. Many people would rather take a pill than change their diet.
That’s because Dr Fung is from Canada! I am very proud of that!
YES! Break-the-fast is what breakfast is! No time attached to it. Eat when hungry! Love Dr Fung.
wow ! yep totally .
I eat breakfast at noon or 1:00 on lots of days; I love breakfast food.
@@pamelamohn5931 exactly! you found what works for you. And me too! I love breakfast foods - any time of the day :)
I like how Dr. Fung is referred to as a "health doctor" rather than a "medical doctor". An important and appropriate distinction!
He is a Physician and Canadian Nephrologist and therefore a Medical Doctor so someone who maintains or restores human health through the practice of medicine. Very much on top of his profession.
i like how some people concentrate on nonsense bullshit

I just love how simple he is and his dry sense of humour. We actually understand which is rare with doctors. Simple words just love him😍
I love the way he explains things! It's so easy to understand.
This is very informative. My Doctor NEVER sugested fasting as a way to lose weight! She suggested weight loss surgery and that I was not eating frequently enough. I knew there had to be a better way which is what lead me to this video. Thank you for sharing!
Many doctors are actually very stupid!! It's true!!
Those surgeries are terrible and disable the digestive system for life.
If you like this, check out Dy Anne Parham she's really great.
I’ve found that I can’t eat before 4pm if I want my energy levels to stay high. Or I have to only eat raw foods or a smoothie before 4. I used to wonder why after eating during my lunch break I would feel sluggish. I finally decided this year that I do NOT have to eat at all while at work. I now leave work at 3:30pm and am home by 4pm. That’s when I eat. And yes, I feel fantastic. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I eat after I workout in the evening.
Keto and Fasting. 155 pounds down, 29 diseases healed, no working out, no surgery, no hunger!
So, you don't get hungry during your fasting times? I have trouble because I get do hungry while fasting that when I eat I wan't to eat "yummy" things that I start to crave because I get so hungry.
Maybe this is because I was including carbs?
@@jefdby fat satisfies my cravings for carbs as well as electrolytes.
29???
@@missnurseeri that's a lot of diseases. :)
@@jefdby cut out all sugars and simple carbs from breads etc processed foods
Health should be more focused on prevention more than treatment 🧘🏻♀️
They don't even treat. They keep us medicated for life. That's retainer business model.
But how can they push big pharm.
Exactly. And the one thing they forgot to name as a cause of disease... Medication.
I think by definition, you are not healthy, if you are being treated!
Health system in Cuba is based on that.
I reversed type 2 diabetes and lost about 30lbs in a month by doing Keto and Intermittent fasting alone. Lost about 50lbs overall, which was everything I had to lose basically.
Amazing! 🎉
Fasting great
Keto not so much a good long term plan
@@shanDalicous Why is that?
He is so right about the hunger. When I started keto back in 2018 I had to work through some hunger For a few weeks. I kept telling myself I’m hungry so what? It’s fine I’m OK I’m hungry no big deal everybody gets hungry it will pass quit focusing on it. So every time I would get hungry I would just say Yep I’m hungry and move on
@Cyndi that's strong will. I did that to stop smoking, I never touched a cigaret again and as soon as I craved one, I imagined smoking one, enjoying it, went through the whole thing without really doing it, so they made me stronger in resisting. But with food it's harder for me. When I was younger I could eat amounts without gaining weight, I weighed 63kg being 2 weeks away from giving birth. After giving birth I dropped to 54kg-56kg but due to taking medicine during a burnout I gained 20kg in 1 year!!! Since then something is completere off with my body. Then I had to take a medicine a few years later that made me drop 7kg in 1,5 week and I had bruices all around my waist, that was scary, they thought I had developed cancer, but as soon as I stopped taking the medicine, I gained weight again. And it doesn't come off anymore.
Your story was inspiring to me. Took me back to the time I quit smoking. Thank you! I'm gonna start IF today.
After many years of a strong sugar addiction, I’ve managed to cut it entirely 🚫🍰🧁🍦🍫🍪. I’ve also reduced my consumption of carbs in general and I’ve started doing intermittent fasting. My whole life changed!!!!!! More energy, more focus, better shape, better mood. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🔥🔥🔥
I did the same thing!

@@mikeybedasie Hey Mikey, thanks for your comment. I’m not a doctor, though, so I’m afraid I can’t help you with your question. I hope you’ll get the chance to ask it to one of them soon. In any case, well done for going sugar free too 👍🏽🙌🏽👊🏽.
@@mikeybedasie Dr Neal Barnard is a real diabetes expert. Watch his videos.
I could listen to Dr Fung speak ALL DAY. What an amazing mind that explains things properly. ABSOLUTELY LOVE HIM. Fasting has been the greatest thing in my life. He is debunking all the bs we were taught before and this is groundbreaking information.
We were simply just overeating & overeating rich food
If i read you a fasting book will you let me put my banana in your tailpipe?
I stopped from listening to my music in my car while I am going to work since I was introduced to Dr. Fung. I can listen to him all day.

@@lewishowes
I shared this to FB halfway through! 👍
Let’s make it viral! Like and share to everyone and everybody!!!!🥳🥳
Dr. Fung changed my life as I used fasting and diet to reverse my horrible type 2 diabetes.
We are blessed to have doctors like Dr.Fung, Dr. Mercola, Dr. Hyman, Dr. Berg, Dr. Berry. Doctors who are willing to go against the grain of simply pushing pills and question the status quo. More importantly, we all benefit from their willingness to share their wisdom.
I agree with this 3000% these doctors are VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE and the TRUTH! I absolutely adore Dr. Berg because of is generous and honest knowledge I learned to do keto & IF the proper and my health is going n the best shape EVER!!
I agree about the doctor's above, I listen frequently to them, I also would like to add Dr. Mandell motivationaldoc, Dr. Sam Bailey, she is either from New Zealand or Australia. And last but not least, Dr, Sten Ekberg.
Dr Boz and Dr Mindy are good as well
Dr Eckberg
Just finished a 72h fasting. Only water, tea and coffee. Not even a need for electrolytes.
Feeling great.
My reason for fasting is my granddad died due to stomach cancer and my dad had early cancer diagnosed. I'm not taking those odds.
Brilliant!
The power of why! Stay 💪
Thank you for sharing its good to know . being diabetes this has helped me and I’m sure others too. i will do the intermittent fasting thank you Dr. Fung and Mr. Lewis Howes.
Fasting is a complete game changer when it comes to health and longevity. Dr. Fung's books, videos and research is among the best resources available on this topic.
🙌🙏
Totally agree!
In islam the prophet Muhammad pbuh recommended to fast every monday and thursday, for a good health. This is about 1400/1500 years ago.
@@mohamedballout5047 Very interesting.
@@mohamedballout5047 every religion has fasting. Christians need to fast 40 days before Good Friday but westerners forgot their roots.
During some interviews with other experts,I sometimes see people bitch at Lewis for “ interrupting” with questions and comments. They don’t seem to realize that Lewis is playing the role of “ Everyman”--and WOMAN for the rest of US in his exchanges with his bright, informed guests. HE asks the questions and makes the comments the rest of us would like to have made available. Great work, Lewis, and KEEP IT UP! 👍🥳🥇I’ve seen Dr Fung dozens of times on CZcams and this was one of the best! 🥰
My longest fast was 20 days back when I was in my 30's. Water only. After 3 days your hunger shuts off and it gets easier. I broke the fast (quit the fast) with fruit and gradually added in other things.
That differs, in my case it is at day 4 wen I am not hungry anymore. After day 2 it is easier to wait hunger out :-)
Brave. Thanks for sharing.
Omg ,Did you get dizzy?
@@forsakenjones4695 No. Not at all.
I just finished Day 1. Thanks for saying it gets easier. My stomach was growling 😋. Idk how many days I’m going to fast yet 🤷🏼♀️
Breaking the obesity and T2D in my family with fasting thanks to Dr Fung!!!!
I love Dr. Fung's analogies that make it so easy to understand exactly what he's saying!
The eskimos and some African groups on large component of meat in their diets also live shorter lives!
I've binge-watched so many of Dr. Fung's interviews and I'm always fascinated with his analogies. I agree they make things do clear.
Same here
I was just saying this to my husband.
@@kayle4113 usually not due to the meat in thier diet but due more to infections and dis
Dr. Fung is amazing. I could listen to him for 24 hours. He is the 1st doctor I know who talks about the innate intelligence of the body. His analogies always include burning sofas and , my favorite, the dreaded MUFFIN. His humor, and his confidence in the body of work he has created, is entertaining and informative. He has helped me fine tune my fasting schedule.
Just heard of this guy and I’ve never listened to 2 hours podcasts but I watched this whole thing
Or the bear in the tutu lol
This information on intermittent fasting these days is incredible!
For years, (over 3 decades ago) I struggled with my Weight. I went on So many diets that didn't work long term. They made me obsess about food even more!
Then I decided to listen to my body.... And I never really liked breakfast, or dinner - but was made to eat them.
When I finally got to eating one meal a day... Which is what I felt like naturally doing.... I FINALLY lost weight.
But Drs warned me against it.
Suggested that I eat snacks throughout the day instead.
And this was my health decline - this is where my simple carb intake sky-rocketed.
And started causing mild health issues that I was prescribed medication for.
Fast forward 30 years and my health hit crisis point. Weight crept on despite minimal eating.
And the turning point was going back to eating what I naturally felt like, only when I felt like it.
Meat nearly dissapeared, veggies filled my diet and I only eat an early dinner.
My health issues are dissapearing.
Society makes us obsess and get addicted to poisonous food!
So many GP's are ignorant on nutrition and food as medicine.
This information has reinforced what my body was trying to tell me all along
Thankyou 🤗
I love how he doesnt blame people.
Father was diagnosed with colon cancer. Not a surprise since his diet contained only meat and alcohol for over 40years. He eliminated both and started juicing and supplementing certain herbs, vitamins and minerals. He has been cancer free for over 3 years. Diet is everything!
Dr.Jason Fung totally changed my life around. His ability to share his knowledge with us using words and analogy that we can understand is simply amazing. I've read so many books and articles about insulin and type 2 diabetes. No one explains it better than Dr. Fung. And thank you for asking great questions, Lewis!
👍
Thank you Lewis and Dr. Fung. you explain everything so well and i love how you care. God bless you both.
I stumbled upon Dr. Fung's video on IF and it changed my worldview. I have been struggling with extra weight for past 6 years. We have been convinced by so many authorities that women over 50 have difficulties loosing weight, so I resigned myself to the fact that that's how it is going to be. And then I started intermitten fasting and started loosing weight, six pounds in 28 days, and I did break it couple of times. Apart from that my sleep has improved, my mood is far better now, and even my skin looks better.
great story !
Excellent information!! Thank you DR. Fung. I have been a nurse for forty years and have seen with my own eyes, how the health of people in general has deteriorated. The population I care for are pregnant women. Women who are supposed to be in the best shape of their lives, but instead are obese, hypertensive, diabetic, depressed and many have severe anxiety. These are the most common and preventable conditions I see everyday. All of which can lead to complications during the birth process. Complications that can be fatal to mom and her baby. No wonder the c/section and infant mortality rates are so high in this country. And the dads are no healthier! My advice to anyone wanting to become pregnant....Lose weight FIRST by fasting as Dr Fung recommends so you won't get diabetes and high blood pressure. Many of the patients I see are obese to start out with and then gain more on top of that. This is a big mistake. Being pregnant doesn't give you carte blanche to gain a lot of weight. Stop drinking alcohol because all that booze makes you and your liver fat and kills your brain. Forget about eating crap food anymore. You have to eat healthy if you want a healthy baby. Period. Go easy on the coffee to give your adrenals a break. Do yoga to relieve your anxiety and depression. And eat lots of vegetables!
And lots of fatty meat high protein!! Excellent for a growing baby 😊💪
Now, if only your patients would listen and do that. People show up at hospitals with a "fix me" mentality so they can get back to doing the very things that made them sick.
@@sardot4960 wow so true
If you are listening to these type of content and searching better food , you are on the right path to live healthy and longer life !
Thank you Dr for saying, “we are sharper when we are in fasting state”. I’m two weeks in a 20/4 fasting lifestyle and I’m always worried I’ll mess up with my meetings with clients and checking my work during my fasting state. I notice I’m super energetic and talkative during my fasted state, and looking back, I also had no problems with clarity
Thank you so much for watching!
I appreciate your show. Fr Fung is great 👍
Dr Fung is a doctor with a true calling for his profession. Great knowledge, warm personality and amazing presentation and people skills. He would be a great uni profesor. I can listen to him for hours and I am always inspired and engaged. ☺️ Lewis as host is amazing and asked great questions. You can tell he was super well prepared - that a sign of a great journalism😊
I love this Dr. There is no other like him. God bless him and everything he does.
He's fantastic but they're are lots of doctors and dietitians that support this lifestyle. Dr Sten Ekberg is really good too.
Bob Lustig.
@@joannasaadati8810 oh yes I am subscribed to him also and Dr Ken Berry and Dr Eric Berg and also Dr John Bergman all great Drs.!!!
The analogy of storing firewood during the warm weather and then the minute it gets cold chopping up your sofa and throwing it on the fire is hilarious! Way to make a point!
I stayed away from food for five days, and by the end of the fifth day, I was beyond crazy. I felt compelled to write down dozens of different ideas for businesses, and I kept getting out of bed throughout the night to write more ideas down. Amazing experience. Thanks for this awesome video
For almost 2 years I fast 14 hours on weight training days (3x/week).
I fast 20 hours 4 days/week with fasted steady state cardio. I feel amazing, ill never go back to 3 meals a day.
I incorporate 48-72 hour water fasts 3-4x/year as well.
And also in the 50's mother would say "only one cookie after dinner." Desserts were ALWAYS controlled with children. I remember.
You are right my mom was so strict with sweets and she never had any. I hated sugar as a kid and liked only savoury food but as I grew up I developed a sweet tooth ate a bunch of chocolates and gained so much weight. I haven't been able to lose it. If I hadn't eaten those chocolates I'd never have gained that weight.
Desserts were only after a meal, and only if your plate was clean, and only once or twice a week.
That was a SUPER wise Mom you had. Ours was a sugar lover & thus let us have LOADS of super refined CHO sugar packed snacks & we developed weight problems, along with the predictable addiction to sugar.
unfortunately they put sugar in everything now, condiments, salad dressings, even bread!
@@MarleneMeier why tf you need a salad dressing in the first place
I'm proud of my fellow Torontonian! His analogies are great as Lewis noted. His humble nature, sense of humour and wisdom are so appealing and impressive. He STAYS REAL!!!!
I bought, Dr. Jason Fung's The Obesity Code and will be getting the rest of his books. I am trying to reverse a fatty liver & pancreas. I just got my new ultrasound and waiting for the results. I've lost sixty pounds in about six months. My next journey will be to learn to stay at my new weight. So much to still learn. Thank you, Jason Fung MD & Lewis Howes.
How did your results turn out?
I truly adore his knowledge that he finds the strength to speak the truth that the pharma industry doesn’t want you to know❗️❗️❗️ great wisdom🙏♥️🙏
Two guys who are not afraid to say what really helps people with health improvement. So glad we have them.
Wow, Dr. Fung is godsend! I started eating one meal a day last week after seeing this interview and losing almost 1lb a day (eating healthy and cutting out sugar and diet soda). This is easier and more effective than Keto and I love the free time from not cooking 3 meals a day. Thank you Lewis for your smart questions, this is another great interview - and life changing for me!!!
Your analogies are brilliant. I have been preaching this information for 15 years. 15 years of people thinking I'm insane. Thank you for breaking the taboos.
Dr. Fung saving my life. Thank you mister Lewis! ♡
So happy to hear we have supported you!
P.S. I have lost over 30lbs since diagnosed with cancer (since February this year), with the help of people like Dr Fung. Thank you.
wishing you well 🙏
Update?
And what about the cancer?
@jay100 how are you doing now, have you reduced your cancer? 🙏
Best wishes for speedy recovery
Love this! Great interview & I love Dr. Fung. I have read all of his books with exception of the newest one & am reading The Obesity Code for the third time, applying it to my life, as well as sharing with others. I am 69 years old & can't remember ever feeling better. I am a nurse, not ready to retire and I am beginning a different path in my career which will give me the opportunity to share Dr. Fung with a new audience. I loved what he said about making a difference for others and I want to do that, too. I never met Dr. Fung, but I want him to know that I will be extending the ripple in the pond that he and Megan Ramos started. Probably, there are others like me who will be helping Dr. Fung to create a tsunami of people getting healthy and drowning out diabetes, Covid, cancer, and a myriad of other preventable metabolic diseases.
How can I become a part of this crusade? I like what I have heard so far!
@@gloriacoleman5000 Set an example. Get educated about fasting and low carb/mod protein/high fat diet compared to the standard American Diet that is making us all sick. Read Dr. Fung's books. There are many CZcams videos and documentaries. See Fat Fiction and What the Health for starters. I especially like Dr.Ken Berry, Dr. Bob Cywes, Dr. Paul Mason, Dr. Ben Bikman, Dr. Hallerman. See The Fasting Method and Diet Doctor websites and FB pages. Start fasting. When your community comments on how great you look, tell them about Dr. Fung. Tell your doctor. Many doctors are ill-informed.
Pat Comly, If we dont eat on time , will we get gastric?
Best of luck on your journey.
@@mandycpg that’s a good question. I worry about constipation as I’ve had that issue when I was having gut issue’s and ended up in the ER
I think this is the best interview I've seen you do so far, Lewis. You were so dialed in~ asking the perfect questions at the perfect time, not interrupting too much, and expanding the topic into other planes. I thoroughly enjoyed this and learned so much my brain is full. Time for a mind-fast. (Meditation!😄)
Appreciate you and your support🧡
Mind-fast is meditation! That's brilliant 🤗
I started fasting after a dermatologist and a specialist on allergies could not find out what was causing my eczema. I fasted the first time Fiorela 3 days and I could see the difference. So I learned it was food related. When I read Dr. Gundry’s Plant Paradox book and I learned I was extremely sensitive to lectins. Now days every time I want to be in a great place I do 5 days liquid fasting. I am sure that my eczema has saved me from other illness, fasting is a blessing!
Assalamoalaikum dear i have autoimmune disorder skin to skin friction intertigo in whole parts i fell glucose smell in my body and all body parts dispalce now i have edema skin cells more muscle loss but lean mass more multiple spines cyst what can i do i am upset
Lewis I really like how you connect with the guest without being carried away by the conversation and manage to ask all the great questions!
My dad survive stage 4 end stage lung 3 months to live still alive 10 years now diet main treatment

I knew it was possible. My mom didn't have the same luck! She died from the same type. But it seams it's not as much luck as we think.

@@zonnaphysicaltherapy1000 It is really sad we cannot grow this fruit aver here in Bulgaria.
This is by far the best thing i have watched on CZcams! So educational and inspirational. I kinda knew it all along; counting calories didn't work, eating clean didn't work, eating small & often didn't work and neither did working out 3-4 times a week. What helped though is getting up in the morning like he said, without showing that breakfast in my mouth & using that existing fuel without adding more!
"Consider this new piece of information: Type 2 diabetes is a dietary disease... therefore diabetes is curable with diet." Thank you, Dr. Fung for your courage to ask people to consider a cure that conventional medicine does not offer.
I love Dr. Jason Fung. I could listen to him for hours.
condescendinggolick.netlify.app/
I totally agree with you
He speaks so well and logically
Wish our doctors would do this
I am totally converted and will try fasting
It is so logical once you really listen to all the program
So since I need to lose weight I will be doing this starting tomorrow
My best weight is 40 pounds less so now I am committed
Tomorrow I will be turning over a new leaf as cancer is a real problem in my family and if this helps me delay this disease
I am sold
Thanks Dr Fung
Bless you
I do low carb and reg fast at 63yo. Im very healthy so far. I attribute this gd health to listening and learning from drs like Jason Fung. Thank God for dr Fung 🤩 I'm from New Zealand 🇳🇿
I’m new to fasting. This video is the most important one I have seen on CZcams. I now understand that fasting isn’t a diet. It’s something that you will more or less follow the rest of your life. I you can’t embrace that principle, don’t waste your time.
You've inspired me to start intermittent fasting. We eat very healthy: no desert, limited white sourdough bread on milk that I bake once a week for family of 5 (basically it's my kids "desert"), no snacks , fruits for lunchtime "snack". My problem is that I eat whenever I have time for that, so it's small breakfast and small dinner, but I usually have something around 8-9pm. So I'm going to start by skipping that "evening snack". Thanks!
this guy`s voice is so calming
It's his diet. It's amazing the way this diet can create the relaxing mind.
yes I love lewis
I love the way Dr fung says "body"...
What a fantastic interview, Lewis! I want to apologize to Dr. Fung for ragging on him in another YT video, where I said he should be teaching other doctors about IF. Somebody did set me straight and told me he can reach so many more people this way, which made me think, and this interview made me agree. Thank you Dr. Fung for all your wonderful work and books!
I just watched a video from 3 years ago of him doing a lecture to other doctors about this. Its not under his name so thats why we didn't know about it. I'm more amazed that I am actually listening to all of this in one sitting. Health is wealth!
Well at least you can admit that you wrongly accused him of that.!! What a good sport you are, not many would do that. Have a blessed day and hope you are doing great.!!
This video to me was the definition of greatness. When you do things to make an impact in the world by helping people. Wow, amazing. I loved the way he closed it out.
You know how I know this video was everything ?!! I actually sat and watched and listened for over 2 hrs!!!! Mind blown!!! Keep
Up the great work and kudos to the DR!!
Thanks for watching and listening, Ebony!
Same here. Thanks so much dr Fung and Lewis !! Listening to dr Fung is my weekly motivation. Lost 40 pounds in a year by just IF. It was so easy to do and I will keep doing this for ever !!
@@girlmyrna7098 thanks for sharing!! Fasting is so powerful!! I went beyond IF and through in some 14 days, 5 days, 7days, and 2 day water fasts and I got even better results. Wish you continued success ; ).
@@anitaknight3915 thats awesome Anita. Longer fast I never tried. I once did a 48 hr fast but that didn’t go very well. I woke up very dizzy and weak. Maybe I didn’t have enough water or electrolytes, I don’t know.
Same, I'm quite surprised I didn't skip, didn't look for time stamps, Lewis at it again with great line of questions and the DR is speaking to me, have lost weight from intermittent fasting but have been stuck at a plateau for months now, will definitely cut out most of the sugar I consume.
My dad smoke for many years and finally his lungs couldn’t hold it anymore. He had COPD and the smoking already damaged/ caused fibrosis of the lungs. He was 80 when he passed away and that’s 50 years of smoking. My dad was very healthy except smoking causing his lungs damaged.
One thing I always thank God was his lungs never turned into cancer. His other organs were perfectly well every time doctor checked on them. Normally other organs like heart would be affected if lungs are bad but his wasn’t. He had no heart issues, no cholesterol issues, no sugar level issues, no weight issues and not often had cold/flu etc. Now thinking about this, he was never snacking! Sometimes he forgot meals!! He never over eating! Now I see why 😊
Thanks for sharing ! I learned about fasting from my dad except he did it differently . It was more like the trend master cleanse . I wish he was able to listen to dr fung and could've prevented his cancer
Thank you for interviewing Jason Fung. I have been watching him regularly for information. You did an excellent job asking very pointed questions. Thank you!
Dr. Fang is easy to understand. I love him because he helps me get healthier!!!
👍👍👍
My take-away is hearing that the act of fasting may possibly turns on additional mental powers. That possibility alone has made me decide to fast. Thank you for your show Mr. Howes, and thank you for yourknowledge sharing, Dr, Fung.
