Hello, what do you think about the paleolithic diet? Thank you
Thank you for that topic.
I AM FROM THE USSR, GREW UP THERE AND MUST SAY THAT SO MUCH CHEAP HEALTHY DELICIOUS AFFORDABLE FOOD EXISTED NOWHERE IN A WORLD!!! CONSERVING FOOD WAS IS JUST a MERE TRADITION BUT NOT a SURVIVAL! Our people were very healthy and slim there! Evrth was standartized BY THE HIGHEST HEALTH SECURITY CRITERIA NAMED "GOST" which could never be beaten by the Western standarts, and controlled by the government, NO JUNK FOOD, NO MEDICAL MAFIA ADVERTISEMENT BY TNK OR ANY COMPANIES! GOD BLESS YOU, MY MOTHERLAND USSR! 🙏🙏🤗🤗🤗😢😢We WILL MAKE YOU COME BACK SOON, HAVE A PATIENT!
Thank u
You mention adding “some” amounts of acids, but what are the ratios? 1 tsp. Vinegar per meal? Thank you.
I'm a Black American and my 94 yo grandmother has said this all my life about vinegar. Vinegar for maintaining weight and blood pressure. Who am I to doubt her - she is 94 and counting.
We all should listen to our elders more. In their day folks had common sense. I hope she is with you many more years.
@@callofgaming5642 Thank you.
Extra Vinegar intake has bad effects, osteoporosis,
My mom who just turned 83years young, she always say the same thing about vinegar. Never ignore the elders. They are always wiser in many ways.
Beautiful!!
This makes so much sense! Being an American of Mexican descent who has lived in Mexico City, I have seen footage of the 1980s earthquake that devastated Mexico City & what you’ll notice is that people were very slim, despite living off of a diet very high in carbs (corn). The interesting thing is it is a strong custom to add lime to everything in Mexico… tacos, soups, etc. It’s also common to serve meals with veggies (cauliflower, carrots & jalapeños) cured in vinegar. It wasn’t until the U.S. introduced fast food, soda and all of their processed junk that Mexico developed an obesity epidemic! Wow. Mind blown.
I always wondered were the quart of lime to squeeze on Mexican food came from. Quite insightful!
Sorry about that! All of our “scientific advances” haven’t been as good as we’d hoped. Apparently the same thing happened in Costa Rica, where they used to have one of the world’s longest lifespans. On the same token, American Scientists, such as Dr. Fung, are now helping to undo the damage! So thankful for guys like him.
@@michaeljay4816 Reminds me of the history of white rice in asia during the victorian era, where it was emphasized over brown rice because of it's "purity", leading to similar lasting effects including beriberi.
And not to be pedantic but Jason Fung is Canadian🍁
@@wi11i6m Woah! Crazy.
And Corn flour treated with lime to make Masa to make Tortillas. They figured it out without moder science and lab experiments
Mix vinegar with olive oil and you get a double whammy against insulin resistance. We Italians have known this for years.
Do you drink it or add to food?
Before a meal or after? Thanks.
Grate carrots, add vinegar and oilve oil, tiny salt and bam!
@@Chinyerefyvinegar and olive oil is often a base for a dressing. Goes over pasta, salad, or dip bread in.
Often you mix herbs to this mixture for more flavor.
@@Chinyerefyin Italy they serve olive oil with vinegar as a side with bread. And then at end of meal usually we would have a veg salad with olive oil and vinegar salad. I don't think they drink it as much it is part of the diet. The olive oil is fresh and amazing we shipped a bunch back.
There's a popular practice in the Middle East, dipping fresh bread in Balsamic vinegar and Olive Oil ... It's quite delicious.
We do that in California too.
Italians do that also, adding maybe some herbs.
funny - this was one of my first thoughts when he was speaking about bread consumption!
The Italians seem to already know these rules Maybe without knowing it
And in Greece.
One of the things that is so notable about many of Dr. Fung's videos is how it confirms the wisdom of many long held cultural dietary practices. The fact that vinegar has this ability to blunt the glucose spiking effects of dietary carbs and that varied cultures have *independently* developed means to incorporate vinegar in their cooking illustrates how, despite these cultures existing millennia before the emergence of modern science, they were ahead of their time. It should teach us that our tendency to dismiss the insights of the past is done at our peril.
I TRULY believe that we should have more regards to the "traditions" or practices of the past (before "science" became a new god). It shows that human beings and certain cultures already looked at ways to address healthy living with food...something that "science" now only barely mentions but still promote the food "pyramid/plate" way. It keeps this system going because the food industry as we know it could be adversely affected. In my view, they are all part of the same (evil, yes evil) system.
It also burns fat and reduces hunger by an independent mechanism
I love anything pickled, vinegar, dill pickles, cabbage, etc. I do 3 day fasts and took Dr. Fung's advice on day 2 when you have some hunger have some pickle juice, I do that and a cup of black coffee and day 3 I have no hunger at all.
Also fasting costs nothing and saves you money. Most people don't understand how easy and beneficial it is. They think it's hard, it's so simple and natural.
@@Jjj6212 Easier to fast than carry around excess weight. I've done 18:6 IF as well as 3, 5, 10 and 14 day water fasts for since 2018 due to the Dr. Fung's advice. It's very liberating. Once your body adjusts, eating multiple times a day becomes an unappealing nuisance. Once 410 pounds, I now weigh 140. My doctor can't believe the change. I also added fermented foods to my diet last year and ACV before meal(s) about six months ago. Started working out in 2021. I feel like I'm reverse aging.
I am 190 I always been 145 my whole life at one point lower than that I've gained over 50 lbs in the last 4 years and now that I am engaged I am wanting more to be healthy again. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx5VQ5nUzHu6i0O5_u7ipyLnCz0lbsSvr0 I am not fat but I am thick and have muscle. I am very close to how you were but a lil smaller but I am so sick people making comments to me like I'm huge or like you said having shorts that used to be so cute on me and now I can't even find a pair to fit me. I used to love shopping now I don't even want to go to the store and if I do I pick the biggest size don't even try it on and deal with it. I went from size 5 to size idk because I don't even want to know the real number. I hate looking at pics of myself now or me before. thank you for your video it's time to make a change.
Congrats on your engagement!
Mmmmmfffffff nxxxxxx! Annoying 😑 😒 😑
Congratulations and best wishes for your wedding.
Same here.i have never been skinny, always with muscle. I lost weight after two kids and looked great, then last year gained weight after an accident and concussion. Have been so dizzy and have lots of headaches,so I was put on meds that got me to gain 20+ pounds... Also , with meds making me nauseous and being nauseous from walking, standing etc i relief on some carbs which i didn't do before.
I swelled up like a balloon and was itching my skin constantly. I felt like my skin was about to pop which the nurse said meant i was allergic. After they switched the meds, it didn't get much better for a good while plus side effects from the new meds. I started building up tolerance to fast for long periods of time, eating a spoonful of plain peanut butter to hold me over when it was hard. I eat cabbage and meats, small amounts. Acv in water. Thank God the swelling and this weight is starting to slowly go away. I've lost a few pounds, i feel a bit lighter. I have ways to go but i refuse to give up. I've been depressed over my pain and weight for a long time. You and i can do it. Let's just keep going. I ve done it before and i can do it again with God's help. Before meals i also say a blessing and all God to let me have it for my health and not the extra weight . Good luck! I hope soon we are a bunch of lbs lighter!
_" A pickle a day keeps the sugar away "_ ☺️👌
Good one. It probably does too!
I love pickles
Dill or sweet?
Sweet would defeat the purpose @@patricestafford294
@@patricestafford294must be dill
Clausen is the best brand from the store. I pickle mine
In Italy, the salad is last and has vinegar on it. The salad has fermented peppers. The pickled vegetables are eaten as an appetizer The spaghetti is eaten with meat and sauce. The bread us eaten with olive oil, vinegar and salt.
The salad must be the first to eat for effective blood sugar management.
If you grew up Italian the salad was alwaysssss the last part of the meal.
@@cetinsadik7969 Protein is always first
@@cetinsadik7969 Unless you eat really slowly, the entire meal winds up in your stomach - and digestive tract at the same time.
Salad hasn't always fermented peppers. Oil, fresh lemon juice or, in summer, vinegar, and salt are the only stable dressing ingredients. Spaghetti is eaten in many different ways, same goes for bread. Foreigners should avert from making claims about other cultures, and begin statements with "as far as I've seen"
So interesting! I lived in Peru for a while. When people there want to lose weight, they would always squeeze half a lemon or lime onto their rice (a staple food), saying it helped "burn the calories".
I'd like to point out. I started practicing drinking lemon juice right before every meal that has carbs. I put 3 Table spoons of 100 percent lemon juice in 6 ounces of water and drink it right before consuming my meal. After a week, I started noticing that I one, feel very satisfied after eating my meal and don't want seconds at all and two I weighed myself 10 days after starting and I starting losing weight even faster. I must confess that I go to the gym 3 times a week and do heavy heavy lifting and walk 3 miles 4 days a week and I was already losing weight, but I went from losing 3 lbs per week to 8 lbs. I lost 8 lbs in 10 days and I'm pretty positive that it's due to the lemon juice. Like he said it's prob not allowing for all of the carbs to be digested and the glucose spike being minimized. I have type 2 diabetes. I also at the very same time started practicing not eating naked carbs, he talks about this in one of his other videos. Before I eat carbs, he suggests that you eat a little bit of protein 10 min before you eat your meal or any carbs. I don't get to do it every time, but I do it quite a bit. I'll eat a piece of low fat cheese or 4 ounces of greek yogurt 10 min before my meal, or sometimes I'll mix 15 grams of protein worth of whey in 4 ounces of water and drink that before my meals. Both these things in combination has caused me to start losing pretty much 50% more when I check in the scale. I just weight myself again the day before yesterday only 5 days had pasted and I had lost 3.7 lbs, in just 5 days. I am NOT on a caloric deficit. I'm eating my maintenance. High protein diet. The only different factors were those two things. Drinking the lemon juice right before my meals and eating a small amount of protein BEFORE eating the carbs that are in my meal. Try it and you will feel amazed at the results. Obviously if you're eating more than your caloric needs you may not see that significant of a result. Also if you're not exercising like I am, if you do see results they may not be as dramatic as mine. But if you're eating your maintenance or on a caloric deficit and you practice both these things, you may see even better results like I am experiencing.
Thank you so much for your useful input ☺️
You know what. Use the same logic, drink lemon juice while eating. I bet the result is gonna be even much more effective!;)
@@TheHoth1 The great thing about drinking it before you eat your food is that it helps you eat way less food.
Thank you for sharing this! I have been doing IF of varying lengths with no results. I am pre-diabetic, so I think that makes it a bit more difficult, but seeing you as a T2 and still losing weight is inspiring. I am trying to eat better and maximize some weight loss with hacks such as these. I wanted to ask Dr. Fung if he felt we needed to put the lemon juice or ACV actually on the food, or if we could do as you do and drink it before a meal. I am going to try this. Thank you for all your help here.
Thank you Rob, I am going to implement these two points into my daily regimen.
Ethiopians eat a lot of a traditional flatbread called injera (it's our rice), and it's made after fermenting the dough for 3 days!
Starting IF 7 years ago after watching one of your videos. I am now 56 and have maintained 18/6 since then. I am the healthiest I have ever been. People comment that I’m too thin, but I feel great, plus my bloods are amazing. Thank you Dr Fung you are the BeSt 🙏🏻🤩
No one ever told me I was fat but after low carbing and getting thin, everyone felt free to tell me I was too thin lol Congratulations to you on your hard work 😊
They don't want us thin and healthy.
My Dear Cousin lived to 98 years old. She always had cucumbers in vinegar 😋 ❤🎉Smart Lady!!!❤🎉
Thanks for sharing!
In Greek food culture we always use vinegar or lemon juice in our salads and the best taste of bread is the one when you 'dive' your bread into the oil and acidity of your choice in salad bowl. The oil, mixed, in most of the cases, with vinegar and the juices from the vegetables in the salad are giving superb taste to bread. Another way of eating bread in Greece is to have a small bowl with mixed olive oil and vinegar to dip your bread in it.
No gyros?
Yum. Same in Albania! I love the oil and vinegar at the bottom of the salad bowl. It’s flavored from the tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. We also eat yogurt with our bread.
@@percyhawkins716 That’s like asking someone from America ‘no hot dog?’ when discussing a common delicious, healthy meal
Not only is your video good but also the comment section that it sparked has a lot of helpful testimonials and info!
Makes sense! Koreans eat Kimchi, Japanese sushi rice has vinegar and also eat with pickled ginger, Mexicans use fresh lime juice on rice
Mexicans use lime juice on everything
Simple practical ways: (i) Squeeze lemon juice over your plate of food or salad greens, (ii) put a table spoon of apple cider vinegar into a glass of water and drink it after eating your meals. I do that so hopefully suggestions are helpful for you. God Bless.
Why not some before and/or during meals?
You can also drink lemon water (a glass of water with 1/4 a lemon squeezed in) instead of apple cider vinegar, which is damaging to the tooth enamel.
@vaska1999 not if you use a straw. And lemons have sugar which rot the teeth too you know...
Lebanese meals always start with pickles. And the salad usually dressed with lemon
Thanks for the information
They also have syrup laden sweets.
@@yoya4766 You don't have to eat those.
Black beans and rice with vinegar and onions on top. Awesome!
Red beans n brown rice with lime and cilantro (optional) is a yumfest too
Wine has a ph that is very close to vinegar. Perhaps this explains why the French and Italians are so much skinnier!
So many reasons! Much less processed food. Active lifestyle. Smaller portions, not eating on the run..
I was looking for this. I like my wine. Google should tell me something
Thank you, Dr. Fung. You shed a lot of light of why Asian diet eat a lot of carbohydrate but maintain their skinny weight. Chinese use a lot of vinegar in their cooking, Korean use fermented like kimchi, Vietnamese use fish sauce (fermented fish), Japanese soak Sushi rice in vinegar. You've done it again; this info is very valuable for us who want to lose weight. Thank you so much.
Most Asians don't overeat.
@@Ryan_DeWitt Not true I'm an Asian and I like to eat that's why I follow fasting program to shed my extra weight.
@@thoang101 Anecdotal. He said MOST.
@@Hat65 Most Asian love to eat that's why our food so tasty. The reason why Asian in US are over weight because we are following the American diet. I'm changing back to my Asian diet now.
@@thoang101 You can't break laws of energy. Asian or not. If you eat more than you can use, you will gain weight. If you eat less, you will lose weight. There is no way around this. I truly don't understand it when people think some hack will magically stop the basic laws of energy from applying to them.
this explains why my grandpa and granda ma reach 100 even they love rice with every meal, their traditional meals are always paired with something acidic or pickles..
Dr. Fung, Thank you for all the good work you do for your patients. Under your guidance thru your books and videos I have lost 82 lbs since July 2021. I was on U-500 insulin 3x per day at 30 units. A1C at times 10+. Now A1C 6.1 and my doctor has told me to stop the U-100 that I was most recently on. I do OMAD and have done 3 7 day fasts in the past year. I was a T-2 for 18 years.
Try weight training as it helps insulin resistance and makes cells more sensitive. You'll look better too.
I wish my grandmother would have had this information 25 years ago. She would have been around a lot longer 😢💔
@@tommyharris5817 I definitely want to start with weights. As it stands now, my arm muscles visible now that no longer in fat man mode. Can see my arm veins too.
wow - now that's dedication! Good for you - your body will appreciate all the great progress you've made!
@@bethfraser7518 Thank you Beth. Good luck on your health journey too. I just completed a 9 day fast about 3 weeks ago. Never hungry during it as I did not have carbs or sugar in my system. I freaked out on Day 8 as my glucose was at 55. I took 2 sugar pills although I did not have any hypoglycemics symptoms. I have later found out that when fully burning ketones low blood sugar is normal.
I love my apple cider vinegar I always have it before I break my fast with sparkling water and lemon juice.
British folk then were right to have Vinegar on their fish and chips thumbs up👍
My grandfather used to make big jars of lime pickles- lime/lemon, salt, chillies, pickle was eaten with rice and yogurt/dhal/curry or rice porridge, i have seen others eat chapati (like tortilla) with similar pickles. The generation with very few fat people.
That made a lot of sense. I started my diet two years ago, I always added a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar to a glass of water before every meal. I lost thirty pounds in the first three months!
I stopped doing that after I reached my goal of fitting into my pants back in my college days:)
I don’t get it. If putting vinegar in water worked, then after you got to your goal and stopped, you should have gained the weight back. So clearly it was something other than the vinegar.
@@kutatm Not if it was the difference between a deficit and a gain. Maintenance is in the middle of those two ends.
Methinks another Jason Fung book is on the way.
I squeeze fresh lemon on lentil soup and vegetables snd o salad all the time for taste , this was cultured I grew up with .
Thank you Dr. Fung i have lost 6kgs in 3weeks. I was recently detected as pre diabetic and while I was searching how to reverse, i came across your video and started OMAD with low curbs. Seriously you are one among million. I still need 10kgs more to loss. Fighting!!
Hello dear, what is OMAD?
@@kwanyin4274 one meal a day
if your OMAD stops working, switch it up to alternating lunch and dinner (one day lunch, next day dinner) -0 this gives you a 16hrs/30hrs fasting schedule and will be enough of a shakeup to keep your body guessing
@@kwanyin4274 intermittent fasting
I lost 18 kgs with OMAD. But lost all of it due to ill health. @@a4dd4a
Adding a vinegar, lemon juice or and fermented food to lower your carb number, wow. Today I added lemon to a veggie mixture on toasted bread, great news. I add lime juice to my daily avocado. Tomorrow I will add balsamic vinegar to my sweet potato.
Italians got this right… dipping the bread in vinaigrette and olive oil
The salt reduction promotion took fermented foods off the plate. Pickes, kraut and soy sauce. I'm adding all of those back in hard and fast. I love soy sauce.
Thank you dr.Fung❤After many years of struggling with weight loss 7 years ago I came across your videos that change my life forever: no more struggle, no more frear...i can't thank you enough ❤God bless you💓
I sometimes watch a vegan TH-camr. She puts lemon juice into everything after it's finished. She is very slim. I must check more into this. I already knew about not eating naked carbs but not about eating the carbs last. I do like sushi but haven't had it since I started lowering my carbs. You have made my day LOL It's not just about the quantity but how you consume them.
I only use vinaigrettes on my salads . I also use pickled peppers . I find that my body responds really well to vinegar and fermented foods like sourkraut (sp?).
Good stuff 😏👌
I lost 30 kg and now weight 79.5 (want to go to 70 kg) thank you dr Fung.
Huh. I started adding balsamic vinegar to the pot every time I made rice just because I thought it'd taste good. I didn't even know at the time sushi rice was made with vinegar. Maybe my subconscious was trying to tell me.
This is the very reason I eat some ferments as a garnish with every meal. Sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir, fermented pickles, etc. They're good for the gut biome too.
It would be very nice to mention great scientist Jessie Inchauspe and her book 'Glucose Revolution', where she explains everything
based on her research. So thank you very much Jessie!
I was looking to see if she would be mentioned. I read her book and then started seeing these videos pop up and thought he must have read her book too. Would be nice to see that recognized.
Thanks for explaining this so well. I drink water with lemon and about a month or so ago I started adding about a TBSP of ACV to drink while I eat my OMAD meal. Now I understand more clearly. I also eat a bit of sour kraut or homemade kimchi with each meal. I've learned so much. Thank you for all you do 😊🙏
You only eat one meal a day?
@@sl4983 Yes! Still do👍. It's plenty. Really
When I do the one meal a day in about a week I start getting sores on my tongue. I must not be getting enough nutrition in that one meal.
@@conniealldis3171 unlikely
@@conniealldis3171 talk to your doctor!
I think cultures that dip bread in olive oil and balsamic vinegar tend to be skinnier
It's worth noting the stomach's ph decreases with increasing age so if his assertions are correct, older people would benefit even more from the addition of acids e.g lemon juice prior to eating
Today i pickled some veggies in apple cider vinegar and now this video.....thank god i did right😊
This might explain why the Maltese diet of bread + capers + olive oil doesn't result in diabetes for the majority. Olive oil buffers the carbs plus the vinegar in the capers blocks the amylase.
Great info.
I live in Tokyo and my wife makes great pickles.
I guess the old practice of vinegar on your french fries makes sense too.
Cheers from Tokyo!
This was so enlightening for me.
Thank you for the video.
I’m a high carb eater. Vegetarian.
I feel great. I’m not overweight, but somehow began to wonder if I’m doing “something wrong”, because of all the low carb talk I hear.
Turns out, I eat a salad every day for years with my one meal and I put vinegar on it.
I also drink lemon water all day.
I was doing this because I like tart tasting things. I had no idea of the benefits.
My family thinks there is something wrong with me for liking tart tasting things. I guess that makes two of us.
@@cmoneyhmoney8879 I've always loved vinegar since I was a kid and pickles too. I would eat drink straight pickle juice! Nice to know I was just ahead of my time
Craving lemon could be a sign of iron deficiency..
@@suzys937They didn't say they were craving it. They just said that they liked the taste of it
That's make three of us!!
I'm surprised I still have good teeth. I've loved tart items since childhood. I remember my mom would use two lemons to make a pitcher of lemonade. I would use one lemon or two lines to make ONE glass of lemonade. One glass!!!
Sometimes I would squeeze lemon/like unto my tongue and sprinkle salt on top!
I also always found a way to add tart items like vinegar, pickles, relish, vinegrette etc to food.... to give a better flavour. And don't talk about every and any tart/sour fruit. Note: Sour here doesn't mean foul. It's the opposite of sweet
Dr Fung, you are the best! Just tested this theory with my rice diet. Lunch was 1cup of rice with one cup of fruit. One and half hrs later Blood sugar was 164. For dinner I Drank three Tbsp of “green bottle”lemon juice with 27 oz of water with one cup of rice and my blood sugar 1.5 hrs later was 107!!! This is amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and helping people!!
What's green bottle lemon juice
@@ertfgghhhh it’s lemon juice concentrate. Real Lemon was the first brand that I know off then all other lemon juice concentrates come in a green bottle! In other words you don’t have to use fresh lemon juice.
Try no rice (worse carb to have because of glycemic index) and no fruit (fructose) substitute for protein and fiber filled veggie like green beans with butter. Your blood sugars will drop dramatically. Just an experiment. ☺️
@@monajenniges4807did you watch this video? Literally the entire reason for the post.

Thank you so much for making this content. You've changed my life. I've lost 35lbs in 16 weeks and feel amazing.
What did you do
@@sl4983 Hello. All week I eat at 4.45am just after I wake up. Normally muesli with soya milk. then I eat nothing to lunch time at 12, which is a cheese or smoked sausage or fish salad. Then I won't eat to the next morning. Friday night I have a few beers and a kebab
And then Saturday and Sunday I have a large one meal each day. Which is high In protein and low in carbs. I don't care if I eat fat, I feel fuller if I do. I just cut carbs down to a minimum and have a fast between my meals.
At first I found it hard but now my body is getting used to it because I've made friends with hunger. It's more natural then being full all the time.
I grew up adding lime to my rice. I couldn’t gain weight even if I tried. Makes sense now.
Fascinating! I knew there had to be more to it than "Japanese stop eating at 80% full" and "balanced plates" sort of mentality. We as a society used to eat TONS of pickled stuff because well lack of refrigeration. My parents talk about leaving tuna sandwiches, bologna sandwiches 'out' as kids. They didn't have 'ice packs' in their lunch boxes which tells me something def changed in gut microbiomes. There was also almost no allergies back then. (these are observations of my own) great video Dr Fung! :)
We never had cold packs in my lunches as a kid. I ate a whole LOT of tuna salad sandwiches in my life.
@@shelenecostello And Mayo!!
Thanks for sharing. The chubbyemu video where the patient would leave out all food for long times and never had a problem. Then ate the suspect romaine that had the funky bad bacteria and almost died. Yep food has changed. If that person can leave a burger out for hours and never have a problem. Most whole non-processed meat doest have preservatives. And they did just fine. When all the stuff has preservatives. Then the food chain is so polluted. Dirty processing plants. To dirty plants getting sprayed with rotten manure. Or rotten rinse water. I smell it on produce. I'm going organic, but that's not great either. Need to live at trusted farmers markets for the summer.
@@scoobtoober2975 Actually here in CA salmonella outbreaks are almost always, without fail ORGANIC PRODUCE. Seriously. It's weird. I think over antibiotic usage and being 'too clean' has caused the prevalence of food allergies. My parents talk about NO peanut allergies, asthma, etc as kids. Now it's everywhere along with celiac but we spray the hell out of our food with glysophate too. Terrible.
@@katehammers5775 That's terrible. Thanks. I'll seek local farms that claim they dont use anything. I noticed a guy in a soviet country shopping. The potatoes had two kinds. One covered in dirt, caked on. Other was like ours, washed or highly brushed. So many vegetable problems. I thought organic would be different. Thanks for saving me that failure.
This makes a lot of sense. I never understood why vinegar works until now. I’m a home brewer. Enzymes were discovered in brewing. The alpha and beta amalyze in malt breaks down the starch into sugars in the mash. Everyone should see this, it’s quite amazing to watch when using other starches in the mash. They go from a thick gruel to a consistency of water in an instant. Anyhow, I was able to lose 50 lbs and still have a beer or two with dinner most nights, or while golfing, doing a keto diet. I also do 16:8 IF-super easy once you are keto adapted. Since the finished beer is about pH of 4-5, that probably does aid somewhat in digestion. I do not drink a lot, but was able to on keto/low carb with IF and still lose weight. With other diets, I always gave up beer, but eventually have one and go off the diet. This is working great for me and my doctor thinks keto is “crazy” but tells me to “keep doing what I’m doing” because my blood tests now are much better than before.
... you are lucky with beer and keto, what ph does the industry made beer have?
@@sircharles7323 In general, ales have a slightly lower pH than lagers; typical values for ale are 4.0-4.5, for lager 4.4-4.7. Each yeast strain, however, has its own characteristics. They key is to stick with just 1 or 2 servings. Also, craft beer or homebrew is best since the yeast are typically not filtered out (as it is in many commercial beers). The yeast is B vitamins, basically.
@@Ketoswammy ... thank´s a lot, in Austria we don´t have ales, mainly we have lager, so I must look for some Import Ale then ;-)
@@sircharles7323 Hefeweizen, Pils, Helles, martzen/Oktoberfest, and Kolsch are some of my favorites, actually.
@@Ketoswammy 😊👍👏
Dr. Fong makes it simple :) Restrictive fasting and lemon or vinegar. If ya don't get now, what can he do.
Great info, thanks. Also, freezing, then toasting bread significantly lowers the carb content, as does refrigerating cooked potatoes overnight before consuming them.
Not true
@@catherineonwellness What are you saying scientists have gotten wrong?
"The impact of freezing and toasting on the glycaemic response of white bread"
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17426743/
What is your own methodology?
Hope this means dipping crusty bread in olive oil with balsamic vinegar is okay. 😋
dont forget the dukkah!
That was my first thought but I don’t eat bread!
Thank you so much for persevering and helping our world Dr Fung- you’re not selling or marketing anything more than wisdom. What a relief and blessing- and your followers and commentaries are full of pride for the cultural relevance of your research. Be Proud of all you are offering and how you live your life sir- we are fortunate to have your books, videos and resources.
Once again- thank you so much.
Maiden name is Poole! Hey fam!
In India we always eat rice with pulses prepared in liquid form, we even put ghee (clarified butter) and pickle made in mustard oil. I recently learnt, that all of this reduces the glycemic index of index! Even lemon is added to food quite often esp in summers, and is kept aside onion/tomato/cucumber salad accompanying lunch. So much for food science of our ancestors 🙏
Thank you Dr Fung! 🇨🇦 I am also living in. Ontario. Didn’t know you were so close about 1.5 hr away. 👋 I have struggled with weight for almost 30 years. I have tried many diets and lap band only to gain more. I am new to fasting. Started 6 days ago. No hypoglycaemia in 18-19 hr fast. Down 4 lbs so far. So grateful for your help. Thank you so much for your insight and encouragement
😘❤️🙏🏻
Update sept 2022 I’m down 17 lbs. not moving fast but at least it’s heading in the right direction. Hypoglycaemia is a thing if the past which I am very grateful. I was omitted wheat and processed sugar for 3 moths and was fasting 22 hrs most if the time. I was not losing any weight and decided I needed to find something a little less ridged. So I’m now 19 hr fast and feeling much better and weight is starting to move again. Thank you for your kind comments and encouragement 😘
Persistence pays. I've lost 75 lb of body fat and am never going back.
How solutions can hide just under our nose - just a few minutes away from Dr Fung …?? And struggled for 30 years - duhh !! Internet has become our closest neighbor..!!
@@bohdanburban5069 Same here! Using mostly alternate day fasing (ADF) I've lost over 75 lbs in six months.
Yes this is a great explanation. I drink lemon water with all of my meals as well as taking acv daily. No naked Carbs!!!!
"Naked carbs", another Dr. Fung super hack? Thank you sir, for all you do, cheers.
As a diabetic, this is very important to me and others with diabetic. Thank you Dr Fung for all your wonderful videos you so kindly educate us with. God bless you.
Such a lovely comment. Bless you, too. May you be healed from your diabetes. Amen. xx
In authentic Indian food we use to eat curd rice or lemon rice or Biryani with Raita (mixture of salads with curd) we normally don't eat only rice, may be our ancestors might know it!🙏
Also pickles. Idli dosa batter is fermented.
Good news for dosa idli appam lovers, like me 😃
Could you please make a video explaining how to consume these acids with various carbs e.g. do you dip the bread in vinegar while eating, do you mix rice with lemon juice, do you make bread with the acids premixed in the dough before baking (if the acid can withstand the cooking/baking heat) etc. and what quantities of acid for what quantities of carbs to get the 40 or 50 % reduction in blood glucose/insulin spikes. Any recipes/diet protocols would also help. It's a tall ask, but would enable putting these findings into practical use. Thanks!
I will love some info on that as well. Thanks for asking
Excellent questions.
this video gives me chills.
it is said that my prophet used to eat wheat bread with vinegar and praise vinegar as one of the best food in the world.
modern day vinegar is.. kinda taste not good so we always think this is just an act of modesty by eating a simple food and praising it.
turned out it really is one of the best addition to wheat bread. moreover, back in the days all vinegar are made traditionally from fruit.
thanks for the great video dr. Fung
I didn't know that
The Prophet Muhammed also sugested eating diseased flies, and drinking from wells full of dead animals.
Italians our culture always drinks filter water with lemons it’s wonderful 🌈💜
So in this country we could say a salad with vinegar and oil is usually served with the protein. Interesting. My Italian mother would serve the cooked broccoli with olive oil and the juice of a lemon. We've lost these traditional ways of eating and that seems to have been not a good thing.
Also test your blood glucose AFTER an hour, then 2 hours to see how this effects YOUR glucose. Everyone is different and this may work better for some than for others. The meter never lies. 😳

Great point
Worth a try!!
@@jamescalifornia2964 Ah...yes. Dennis 😉
Just a little fyi for folks on the sushi rice part! Some recipes are different and may vary. Some have lots of sugars in the recipe so eating too much sushi rice can be detrimental as well. Also what you're eating it with plays a role, fried foods like tempura, sushi covered with mayo sauces or sugary "eel" sauces etc.
Very informative... but you left out some very important information. How do we incorporate acid/vinegar into our diets & how much. You talked about dose response relationship, but never mentioned "the dose" that is some important information. Then there is the how, can you cook it into your food, pour it on or just drink it straight or diluted, which is better and/or more efficient/bio available? Probably NEED another video!
Try Dr Berg, he has loads of videos explaining things with clear, easy to understand videos.
@Jeff Pepper you raised an excellent point. To me ACV is highly diuretic when I started taking it even in 2 teaspoonfuls and I frequent going to the bathroom at night. Wish Dr J has a vid on ACV
In southern regions of India, fermented yogurt and buttermilk is a staple food, which are had at every meal and also in between meals to satisfy both thirst and hunger. These contain very high amounts of gut friendly prebiotic and probiotic bacteria. Not only that, these also help control blood glucose levels wonderfully to the extent that when had alone, you don't have to take your anti-diabetes medication. Fermented foods are a huge blessing for diabetics!
Are you talking about lassi?
@@flyhigh9944No. Lassi is yogurt/curd liquefied with water. I am referring to moar which is the liquid which remains after most (not all) of the butter has been removed from the yogurt. To this are added hand crushed curry leaves, asafoetida, cumin and unrefined sea salt.
@@UMS9695 oh wow that's interesting. I wasn't aware of that. I have recently tried adding lassi to my diet to cool my body down. I have been told my liver is over heated.
We were taught in biology at school about amylase working only in the mouth, and that when you swallowed it the stomach acid stopped the digestion process. The idea, then, was that you WANT to digest your food (rather than have it "not count" because you're over-eating it). That was the explanation for the rule that you should chew your food thoroughly (eg 30 times).
We seem to have lost a LOT of knowledge of this kind in the constant search for medications to fix things. Basic, well known biology.
This is great but be aware that things like vinegar and lemon are very hard on your tooth enamel so you should brush your teeth afterwards
Don't brush immediately.Rinse ur mouth.
I am going to look up the recommended amount. Several different opinions here from the commenters. Definitely a good point on what it can do to your teeth
Your breakdown of carbs and with the addition of lemon and or vinegar sure is news worthy !! Thanks !!
Thanks Doc for the amazing video. I love the shorter vids. So useful. Thanks for all you do.
Thanks, very useful. I have lost 35 pounds in 6 weeks following you. I still need 30 more. Anyway thanks again
You lost 35 pounds in 6 weeks? Did you mean to say 6 months?
@@giraffesareselfish9563 I've lost over 60 lbs in under 4 months doing alternate day fasting.
It’s great that more and more information like this is coming out so that people can better understand mechanisms of how this all works.
Love you dr. Fung!!!
Thanks Jason, very helpful
Thank you for posting. I have been researching Microbiome and yes fermenting foods help with digesting and helps balance bacteria which helps with cravings energy. I make sushi all the time but I don't use sushi vinegar I use Braggs because of the mother and I add a little monk sugar without heating the vinegar not to kill thr bacteria. Taste the same but healthier
That helped explain how I am still losing weight slowly, although I haven't gone low carb, I do fast intermittently. I eat a variety of sauerkrauts and kimchis are my daily go to food for fermented veggies. Thanks again.
😙👌 That's very good ! Also vitamin K2 in fermented foods ...
Sauerkraut is loaded with sodium nobody needs. I quit eating it
@@jamescalifornia2964 Yep. And Vit K2 is good for the heart

I see a lot of Asian students arriving in America and they are stick thin! I've been wondering how that happens and you've answered for me. Thank you.

Great video Dr Fung. It ties back to your last week video. Enjoy your Sunday!
Hi from South of India.
It is our culture for ages here to eat rice with lentils, Vegetables and ghee and end the meal with rice and curds. That makes sooo much sense how following our ancient practice e blindly could be of great help. Thank you so much for this video .
Are you referring to raw milk curds?
@@bexgarden5543 not necessarily raw milk...but yes, curds from milk even boiled. The culture added to milk is the curd itself.
Thank you Doc. Awesome stuff
Thank you dr Fung.
One of my fave docs. He keeps it real...🙏🏼💥
Dr Fung always delivers an educational program.
Thanks for explaining so well
Thank you Dr. Fung
You can also freeze and toast sliced bread. It reduces the glycemic effect by up to 30%
Ezekiel bread is low glycemic. It doesn't have any flour, just sprouted grains. AVailable in Walmart frozen vegan food section
How
@@jgrysiak6566 i wonder how it effects insulin and blood sugar
@@bkandy7165 , it's super low. Glycemic index of 36
@@jgrysiak6566 but what does toasting or freezing do to change the glycemic index
