Obese for years following medical advice, on pills but no changes to my declining health until I found your channel and started listening to Dr. Jason Fung's advice. I lost 65lbs in 4months, reduced my A1c from 11.7 to 6.2, reduced liver damage markers in half. Thank you!!!!
I was diagnosed with non alcoholic steatosis at 35. I was very active cycling 200 miles a week and jogging 30 miles a week. I was so confuse and didn't want to be a liver transplant candidate and made changes to my diet by aggressively cutting sugar out from my diet. Within a year my enzymes went back to normal and I haven't had any issues. It's amazing what diet can do to your body.

I just have to share my fatty liver story (this is before I knew about your channel)! I had gotten a CT scan (post chemo check up) and the oncologist said that I had the beginnings of fatty liver disease and "watch what you eat." Well, that didn't tell me much! I went to my friend, who's a nutritionist, and asked him what to do. He told me it was a carb problem, not a fat problem, as you might think from the name of the disorder. I worked to improve my diet by lowering total carbs, avoiding bad carbs, etc. Fast forward to my next CT scan. Fatty liver GONE! It can be done! I so appreciate all your educational information. I recommend you to friends all the time. (And I'm in love with Rose!) Thank you for this video!
That's awesome but if you do eat carbs which carbs do you eat? I can't afford to cut out all carbs for my diet I'm a very active person I need the energy and the minerals and nutrients because I'm also treating osteoporosis naturally, so I'm trying to find a balance of lowering fatty liver and treating osteoporosis
Just diagnosed with fatty liver and gallstones. Found Dr Fung a few days ago, also Dr Ken Berry. First thing MD said was to see a GI specialist to check the liver further, and have surgery to remove the gallbladder. I said no to both - despite having been a nurse for 47 years, I know that the medical profession would rather prescribe a pill or do surgery than actually treat the underlying problem. Same with my type 2 DM - I control it without meds or insulin, am on a modified keto diet, but about to go full bore. Thanks for letting us know about the substitute spaghetti types. Love your vids.
I would go further and ban all sugar and sugar alcohols. Only natural sweeteners such as stevia or monk fruit. Sugar is more addictive than cocaine, imagine if all the food and desserts that had sugar were laced with Cocaine instead. Imagine the outcry! But nobody thinks twice about sugar and HFCS.
Sadly my mother passed away 8 yrs ago from this because it had become cirrhosis liver too late to practice what you mentioned but it’s good to have this information since it’s happening more often now a days, thanks for the research 😊

Dr. Jason Fung is fantastic. I also follow Diet Doctor (Dr. Brett Scher), Dr.. Ken Berry, and Dr. Peter Attia. All of those are great resources. Great video, Bobby.
Agree with Dr Fung. His books “The Obesity Code” and “The Diabetes Code” are fantastic for understanding how your body works. The information is tremendous whether you’re obese or diabetic or not - so important! And his books on fasting are wonderful! He also has YT videos. He explains things so that everyone, from those starting at zero knowledge through those who are well versed, can understand and learn.
Also ✔ out DR. ERIC BERG video on TH-cam . .i promise YOU will NOT be discourage . . .he's very TRUEFUL n HONEST n STRAIGHT TO THE POINT n also tells YOU n gives YOU solutions . . when it comes to your health n well being n WHAT foods to eat n drink n he is very passionate about WHAT hes talking abt n hes very resourceful. .hes my go to Dr.
Try Dr Greger too. He wrote “How Not to Die” and “How Not to Diet”. Awesome. Also Dr B who wrote “Fiber Fueled”. I am currently reading this book. Great and informative so far.
I can't thank you enough. My doctor sent me to a diabetes program here in Toronto and they told me little. I didn't know to not consume carrots and oats.

Jason Fung is over the top!! If you haven't listened to his videos, you are in for an education. Get your health together, he is the person to guide you. Love him!!
YES! please do more medical videos like this. This is perfect for my patients. Can you also do anemia, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, end stage renal disease\chronic kidney disease?
And, . . .PLEEEEASE GASTRECTOMY eating. My 88 yo mom is wasting away. Absorption problems bc cut out part of stomach in '96 bc ulcer. Now on PPI for YEARS and it blocks absorption also. Protein powders make her sick. She's 115lbs 5'5". Collarbone look like swimming pools empty. Horrifying. Doc says normal aging. HELP
End stage renal failure? Good Lord! At that point how is food going to help? My mother died of end-stage failure and by that time really nothing could be done. Just saying I love Bobby but he’s not a doctor.
@@elizabethreed5648 It’s been several months since you posted, and I hope your mom hasn’t wasted away. If she tolerates meats and fish well, her focus should be small, frequent high-protein meals. Yogurt, meats, fish, eggs. If she can tolerate some fat, include some fattier cuts and fish. Minimize or skip the carbs and sugars. They’re much harder to digest after gastrectomy and do nothing for providing nutrition. If she’s able to lift any weights, even light ones, that would greatly help her put on a bit of muscle. Muscle loss in aging is a huge factor in loss of mass, strength, bone mass, and affects overall longevity.
It is probably mostly the same as the diet he is saying here. He probably would recommend riced cauliflower or zucchini noodles. I know i ate almost exactly how he is describing here when i had gestational diabetes. Ate 6 times a day. Smaller portions. No carbs besides from vegetables mostly. I am not the biggest fan of fruit but i did eat some watermelon. Its mostly just water though. 😂 anything with high carbohydrates will turn to sugar and feed disease.
I had NAFL . I had my gallbladder removed and my fatty liver disease turned into chirrosis. I can’t begin to say what I endured and suffered. I was blessed enough to receive a liver transplant. Wonderful hospital and staff and doctors. I am so grateful. A lot more suffering. Please listen to this advice. I was lucky.
I went on Intermittent Fasting on Jan1, drinking Bulletproof Coffee. Twice a week, I fast 24 hours. I have not gone Keto, but I stopped eating sugar & processed foods, cleaned out the pantry. I eat all the vegetables Bobby suggests. I am feeling great; l’ve lost 26 lbs. use ONLY EEVO & avocado oil suggested by Bobby. Good luck to you. Get rid of the junk! Watch TH-cam videos.❤
Jason Fung is a nephrologist (kidney Dr.) out of Toronto, Canada. He runs a clinic for intensive dietary management. Starting it because he saw so many Type 2 diabetics coming in for dialysis due to kidney failure. Not just a youtuber. He's completely reversed Type 2 for many diabetics with his treatments. Cut the carbs people.
I am so pleased to find this !! My GP is not interested in anything except PILLS ! When I try to change things around, they complain about the state of my LIVER, and/or KIDNEYS. Sometimes they don't even know which, and think it's MY fault. Then I find out 3 prescribed meds can damage liver/kidneys, and also known to make your hair fall out. Have stored this to repeat watch. Thank you !
I’ve got a fatty liver, the doctor said my blood was high in cholesterol to. This has been a really informative video, I will be putting your advice into practice
I have high cholesterol and fatty liver got into emergency for vertigo my doctor said its a high carbohydrates intake. After 3 months of not eating carbs and low sugar my blood cholesterol is normal and fatty liver is gone.
Hi! First time watcher here. Great video, Bobby! I'm a FM RD and I'm glad to hear you support Dr. Fung and help shed light on the ever growing issue of NAFLD. Keep up the great work!
Here is my conclusions..when you go to supermarket or grocerystores, never ever walk near any shelves that has foods that are packed in boxes, bottles. Only go to those fresh food and fruits section
Dr. Jason Fung is amazing. Watch him all the time and I've start IF working myself up to 16-8. Can't wait to see the health results. A little weight loss wouldn't hurt either. Love your channel too.
I've had nonalcoholic fatty liver for years. I just received 2 boxes of pea pasta that I ordered online. It won't be worth it to return it. I'm going to throw both boxes away. I'm learning so much from Bobby! I love this channel! :)
Yes to videos like these. I always trusted what’s out there. Now I know I must educate myself and others on foods that are right and wrong to eat. Thank you for educating the masses.
Since I discovered Flavcity back in Feb. I’ve dropped 15 pounds by cutting out sugar, seed oils and the other ingredients Flavcity condemns. I see so many obese people with shopping carts filled with “foods” that are only going to keep them fat and sick. It’s sad. Giving up unhealthy food is so easy and the results so wonderful.
@@ursulasmith6402 not sure what brand you're looking at. My brand has ZERO. Sorry you weren't aware you can find an unsalted version. Same goes with butter in general, there are unsalted versions as well. Hope that helps!
Thank you Bobby. Your research is top notch! 🤓. Does anyone else find that Primal Kitchen lids don’t pop when you first open their bottles. Sometimes there’s dark residue on the top of the lid. I ended up throwing it away so many times I’ve just stopped buying it. I was taught that pop means the vacuum seal was successful when it was canned.
Me too! I personally trust him given he is actually a doctor and uses evidence based medicine. Not just some random ‘nutritionist’ who did a 2 day course!
I too have been diagnosed with fatty liver. Not one of my doctors has any guidance other than lose weight,so I took to my resources on the internet. You, Dr Fung & Dr Berg have been incredibly helpful. Thank God for you.
So we must have the same doctor! 😉 Pretty shameful that so many people have this and we pay money to see doctors with no guidance other than lose weight! It's also shameful we have to go to You tube to know how to treat it! All I can say is thank God those people put out videos to inform us!
Hey Bobby.....love your channel, lots of good info. I do have to mention, though, that the glycemic index for carrots is 16 and the glycemic load for a couple of small carrots is 8, putting carrots in the low range for both. 😊
I am almost 72 and recently diagnosed with a fatty liver. My doctor immediately put me on medication. No! I am wholeheartedly endorsing the low carb diet. I appreciate your video and will definitely check out Dr fong. Thank you so much new subscriber
Non-alcoholic fatty liver is very common. It is generally diagnosed via ultrasound but many doctors will not tell you and if they do, they don't tell you what to do about it. Maybe, because a lot of their prescribed medications are metabolized in the liver and they don't want you to know that.
18 organic WholeFoods eggs on sale, $4.87 for prime members? Something like that amount. Even without the prime discount, it’s a good price on sale, compared to Publix organic eggs.
Thank you so much for addressing the proper ingredients to purchase and how to use them. Nobody seems to address how to drink coffee when it comes to NAFLD just that it helps. I'll definitely be saving this for future reference.
I was recently diagnosed with fatty liver. It was caused by my gall bladder surgery. I was not put on a low-fat diet and the surgeon told me I can eat whatever I want. LIE! So now, I have fatty live disease. I started restructuring my whole eating routine. Stevia only no sugar or sweeteners, apple cider vinegar, boiled chicken, etc. I am also eating lesser portions, half of what I was used to on my plate. And I am doing LIA(low impact aerobics), weights, elyptical, and long distance walking. I've already lost over 10 lbs. Thank you for your video. It helped a lot.
Last year, I went keto/low carb and have gotten off meds and lost weight. My latest liver ultrasound showed milder fatty liver so I'm heading in the right direction. Sadly, my doctor advised a low fat diet...I wish he'd watched you or Dr. Fung.
If you don't have a gallbladder; yes you should worry about fat intake. And always take ox bile with you food. (I get mine at whole foods 365 Daily Digestive)
I currently got diagnosed w fatty liver now have to under go a liver panel..we dont have a whole foods here but this gives me a good enough idea thank you
Hello . I just wanted to say when I was watching the youtuber "German in Venice",he mentioned that Aldi's and Trader Joe's is owned by the same German Brothers ,they either inherited or bought Aldi's from their Mother. Thanks
God bless you! Diagnosed with Nash stage 2 and been following dr.s recommendations. Just waking up to the idea that keto would be a better option to heal my liver. Thank you for these recommendations!
@@sdla690 I use it in my smoothies. I use almond milk, collagen protein powder, mixed berries, and the hemp hearts. Blend it all up. My go to breakfast
A few yrs ago I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and the dr gave me a sample daily menu of foods to eat. Great ! When I actually read it I was shocked. It was oatmeal for breakfast, cream of chicken soup for lunch, baked potatoe, turkey sandwich on white or wheat, etc. I couldn’t believe all the carbs ! I’m no diet expert but I knew it was so wrong. So I went low carb, not quite keto but close, and lost 30 lbs, A1C down, liver enzymes down, LDL DOWN ! LDL was a huge surprise because it dropped so fast (3 months) from 280 to 180. My body just can’t take starchy foods though I love it so the transition was tough. I eat lots of protein, veg and fresh fruit and the numbers keep dropping.
I'm gonna make my own granola... Found chipped raw coconut, nothing added -- at BIG LOTS, will add flaked nuts, hemp hearts, chia, flaxseed meal, egg white, lakanto golden, cinnamon, blend and spread on cookie sheet - toast and add some avocado oil, salt, to taste... We'll see...
Bobby you are so informative. Such a useful video. Much appreciated as usual. Extremely helpful. Can you do a video for low blood pressure please. Also for me high cholesterol one please. Thank you so very much you and your team!!! Much love to you your lovely wife and superstar Rosie. Thank you so very much. Kindest regards from England.
Sounds like something was allowed in our food/water system that started the problem. Hormones, Roundup, Nutrasweet, etc., probably introduced in the late 1970s. Finding out what that was might help eliminate-or at least lessen-the problem
Unfortunately there is no such thing as sustainably farmed, it's just a marketing phrase. That salmon would be grey if the fish were not fed coloring. Wild caught only. Seaspiracy.
Been following Dr Jason Fung for years, changed my diet to low carb high fat keto and Intermittent fasting reversed my insulin resistance thanks to him. Enjoy your videos especially the food hauls and explaining different foods.
Great subject! I make “Tolerant” chick pea penne pasta. I find that it isn’t good the next day, now I take the leftovers and purée it to make a soup base 👍
The culprit is High Fructose Corn Syrup. It’s hard to find food and beverage manufacturers that don’t use it these days. HFCS is metabolized in your liver and it’s getting overwhelmed when it can’t break it down. White cane sugar is metabolized in the kidneys and doesn’t cause as much damage to the kidneys as HFCS does. I was under doctor supervision and lost 65+ plus pounds by drastically reducing or eliminating HFCS.
I am overwhelmed and confused now. Previously you said whole grain pasta and lentil pasta was good and didn't spike blood sugar, now all of a sudden it spikes blood sugar and creates and insulin response and now we have to avoid it. Someone please clarify this contradictory info? I was also under the impression that hemp hearts had too much omega 6? Going keto can't be the only way to fix fatty liver disease. This was by far the most depressing info I've consumed in a while. No oatmeal even?
I don't believe oats are entirely taboo. I actually went on an eating program that included oats, rice, quinoa, and couscous, and lost 46lbs in about 7-8 months. I think monitoring how much of those grains you eat per day is key. So, for instance, I eat cooked or soaked oats that measure to half a cup dry and that is the only grain serving I eat for the entire day. I have 1/2 cup of cooked rice for one of my meals, and that's it for the day. Same with quinoa or couscous. Insulin spikes every time you eat, but if you're controlling how much grain you are consuming you're also making sure that the spike doesn't get out of control. I think Bobby is right in giving advice to steer clear of grains for those who have fatty liver disease, but once that liver has had a chance to heal and function the way it's supposed to, I think it's actually good to have some healthy grains on the menu.
Rennie Palmer but couscous is not a grain. Couscous is actually made using semolina (as for when making pasta) and processed into little 'grain like' shapes.
@@nadinecamara5123 yes that's right, couscous is made using semolina granules, but semolina is made from crushed durum wheat, which is a grain :) That really wasn't so much my point. Rather it was that there are some grain-like healthy foods that are higher in carbohydrates (which can over-spike insulin if overeaten), but as long as they are eaten in moderate amounts, they shouldn't be a problem.
@@renniepalmer5564 I was diagnosed with fatty liver last year can you please help me what diet or food should I avoid or consume? To start healing/reversing fatty liver?
This is life saving information. I am against palm “harvesting” several species of animals are killed defending their ONLY food source please boycott PALM OIL and anything palm!!! Thank you so much for the research you have added to this, I agree with everything except the palm oil/ palm products and will NOT use canola… it was developed as a light machine oil… I get inflammation when i eat it/ consume so must check labels.

You just blew the top of my head off, pulled out everything I thought I knew, threw it away and filled it with useful fact based information. Thank you.
Dr. Fung saved my life. He is amazing. Read his books.
Dr. Jason Fung is fantastic. I also follow Diet Doctor (Dr. Brett Scher), Dr.. Ken Berry, and Dr. Peter Attia. All of those are great resources. Great video, Bobby.
Also, Dr. Eric Berg and Thomas DeLauer
Agreed, check out Dr Ekberg also, he's the best IMO
Agree with Dr Fung. His books “The Obesity Code” and “The Diabetes Code” are fantastic for understanding how your body works. The information is tremendous whether you’re obese or diabetic or not - so important! And his books on fasting are wonderful! He also has YT videos. He explains things so that everyone, from those starting at zero knowledge through those who are well versed, can understand and learn.
Also ✔ out DR. ERIC BERG video on TH-cam . .i promise YOU will NOT be discourage . . .he's very TRUEFUL n HONEST n STRAIGHT TO THE POINT n also tells YOU n gives YOU solutions . . when it comes to your health n well being n WHAT foods to eat n drink n he is very passionate about WHAT hes talking abt n hes very resourceful. .hes my go to Dr.
Try Dr Greger too. He wrote “How Not to Die” and “How Not to Diet”. Awesome.
Also Dr B who wrote “Fiber Fueled”. I am currently reading this book. Great and informative so far.
I can't thank you enough. My doctor sent me to a diabetes program here in Toronto and they told me little. I didn't know to not consume carrots and oats.
Dr.Jason Fung's book " the Obesity code" is a real eye opener.
It exposes so many lies and myths that people and Doctors believe.
How much weight have you lost after reading this book?
I have lost 70 pounds since I read it
@@valkh83 70 pounds
Congratulations on taking back your health!!! Well done !!! Blessings to you
Yes Bobby! I would like more videos like these. I have a fatty liver and want to lose the weight. Thank you.
Dr. Fung is the foremost authority on intermittent fasting. I have been following him for several years now.
What has he said about IF 😯?
What do you think of Dr. Eric Berg?
Dr. Eric Berg
@@Hydrangeainblue -he has a You Tube channel. He also has a number of books out. He is an MD that believes in functional medicine. th-cam.com/video/T7o_hF1XB84/w-d-xo.html
@@reality8605 -I like Dr. Berg too. He is a DC.
Thanks for educating people on how to make better food choices Mr. Bobby Parrish.
I'm going shopping today to find things like coconut flakes, hemp hearts, hearts of palm pasta. etc THANKS BOBBY for helping me start my journey to save my liver
Jason Fung is over the top!! If you haven't listened to his videos, you are in for an education. Get your health together, he is the person to guide you. Love him!!
Yes the best!!❤️
YES! please do more medical videos like this. This is perfect for my patients. Can you also do anemia, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, end stage renal disease\chronic kidney disease?
And, . . .PLEEEEASE GASTRECTOMY eating. My 88 yo mom is wasting away. Absorption problems bc cut out part of stomach in '96 bc ulcer. Now on PPI for YEARS and it blocks absorption also. Protein powders make her sick. She's 115lbs 5'5". Collarbone look like swimming pools empty. Horrifying. Doc says normal aging. HELP
End stage renal failure? Good Lord! At that point how is food going to help? My mother died of end-stage failure and by that time really nothing could be done. Just saying I love Bobby but he’s not a doctor.
@@elizabethreed5648 It’s been several months since you posted, and I hope your mom hasn’t wasted away. If she tolerates meats and fish well, her focus should be small, frequent high-protein meals. Yogurt, meats, fish, eggs. If she can tolerate some fat, include some fattier cuts and fish. Minimize or skip the carbs and sugars. They’re much harder to digest after gastrectomy and do nothing for providing nutrition. If she’s able to lift any weights, even light ones, that would greatly help her put on a bit of muscle. Muscle loss in aging is a huge factor in loss of mass, strength, bone mass, and affects overall longevity.
It is probably mostly the same as the diet he is saying here. He probably would recommend riced cauliflower or zucchini noodles. I know i ate almost exactly how he is describing here when i had gestational diabetes. Ate 6 times a day. Smaller portions. No carbs besides from vegetables mostly. I am not the biggest fan of fruit but i did eat some watermelon. Its mostly just water though. 😂 anything with high carbohydrates will turn to sugar and feed disease.
Thank you Cidalia Martins
I had NAFL . I had my gallbladder removed and my fatty liver disease turned into chirrosis. I can’t begin to say what I endured and suffered. I was blessed enough to receive a liver transplant. Wonderful hospital and staff and doctors. I am so grateful. A lot more suffering. Please listen to this advice. I was lucky.
😢 sorry you went through all that
Did the gallbladder removal make your liver worse?
What where you eating before when you had it? What do you think the main culprit was? Glad your better
@@sharroon7574yes, it can worsen it according to the hepatologist who did my ultrasound scan. It's to do with bile secretion.
Dr. Fung is great! He simplifies complex data and information for viewers.
Spaghetti squash is a great alternative for pasta easy to prepare and tastes great
Yes!! Just what I need. Started to watch what I eat & now I have more information to help me decrease my fatty liver.
I was diagnosed with fatty liver as well what diet do you follow?
Jason Fung. Outstanding source of health information!
I went on Intermittent Fasting on Jan1, drinking Bulletproof Coffee. Twice a week, I fast 24 hours. I have not gone Keto, but I stopped eating sugar & processed foods, cleaned out the pantry. I eat all the vegetables Bobby suggests. I am feeling great; l’ve lost 26 lbs. use ONLY EEVO & avocado oil suggested by Bobby. Good luck to you. Get rid of the junk! Watch TH-cam videos.❤
Oatmeal is high in phosphate too.
I'm a type 2 diabetic and have NAFLD and high cholesterol..following your videos now and trying to lose weight.
Thanks for the info as always. Dr. Jason Fung is a nephrologist that has some excellent information on Type 2 diabetes, obesity and cancer also
Jason Fung is a nephrologist (kidney Dr.) out of Toronto, Canada. He runs a clinic for intensive dietary management. Starting it because he saw so many Type 2 diabetics coming in for dialysis due to kidney failure. Not just a youtuber. He's completely reversed Type 2 for many diabetics with his treatments. Cut the carbs people.
I miss Art 😢
Same :(
What happen? Did they breakup?
Same
I think the bromance is over with Art, as he’s in Chicago. Bradley is filling in, not sure how they’re related.
Yeah, I was shocked they broke up.
I am so pleased to find this !! My GP is not interested in anything except PILLS ! When I try to change things around, they complain about the state of my LIVER, and/or KIDNEYS.
Sometimes they don't even know which, and think it's MY fault. Then I find out 3 prescribed meds can damage liver/kidneys, and also known to make your hair fall out.
Have stored this to repeat watch.
Thank you !
Flav City Crew, you are saving so many people’s lives, making us live healthier and longer. So great full ❤️❤️❤️😊😊😊 keep up the good work
Got rid of my fatty liver from being diagnosed to follow up appt nine months later...it can be done!!!
I’ve got a fatty liver, the doctor said my blood was high in cholesterol to. This has been a really informative video, I will be putting your advice into practice
I have high cholesterol and fatty liver got into emergency for vertigo my doctor said its a high carbohydrates intake. After 3 months of not eating carbs and low sugar my blood cholesterol is normal and fatty liver is gone.
Hi! First time watcher here. Great video, Bobby! I'm a FM RD and I'm glad to hear you support Dr. Fung and help shed light on the ever growing issue of NAFLD. Keep up the great work!
Here is my conclusions..when you go to supermarket or grocerystores, never ever walk near any shelves that has foods that are packed in boxes, bottles. Only go to those fresh food and fruits section
Thank you for the valuable information. I have diabetes, cholesterol, and high blood pressure. Your videos are helping me.
Dr. Jason Fung is amazing. Watch him all the time and I've start IF working myself up to 16-8. Can't wait to see the health results. A little weight loss wouldn't hurt either.
Love your channel too.
I've had nonalcoholic fatty liver for years. I just received 2 boxes of pea pasta that I ordered online. It won't be worth it to return it. I'm going to throw both boxes away. I'm learning so much from Bobby! I love this channel! :)
Yes to videos like these. I always trusted what’s out there. Now I know I must educate myself and others on foods that are right and wrong to eat. Thank you for educating the masses.
Since I discovered Flavcity back in Feb. I’ve dropped 15 pounds by cutting out sugar, seed oils and the other ingredients Flavcity condemns. I see so many obese people with shopping carts filled with “foods” that are only going to keep them fat and sick. It’s sad. Giving up unhealthy food is so easy and the results so wonderful.
Instead of oils, you can cook with pasture raised butter or ghee butter.
Ghee is high on sodium.
@@ursulasmith6402 not sure what brand you're looking at. My brand has ZERO. Sorry you weren't aware you can find an unsalted version. Same goes with butter in general, there are unsalted versions as well. Hope that helps!
I LOVE Jason Fung! You are in great company with him and Dr. Berg!
Keep doing what you're doing! This will save lives!
Bobby you have no idea the impact you have on all of us we need you and thank you so incredibly much
Thank you Bobby. Your research is top notch! 🤓. Does anyone else find that Primal Kitchen lids don’t pop when you first open their bottles. Sometimes there’s dark residue on the top of the lid. I ended up throwing it away so many times I’ve just stopped buying it. I was taught that pop means the vacuum seal was successful when it was canned.
That shit is too expensive to throw out! Return it for a refund! I started making my own salad dressing. So easy and deelish!
😊Īi
DR. Jason Fung is dang near the father of modern fasting. Read his books, they're life changing.
I am a big follower of Jason Fung. 🙌
Me too! I personally trust him given he is actually a doctor and uses evidence based medicine. Not just some random ‘nutritionist’ who did a 2 day course!
Going to check him out . Thank u 🙂
Me too. He is very wise. Love him.
I too have been diagnosed with fatty liver. Not one of my doctors has any guidance other than lose weight,so I took to my resources on the internet. You, Dr Fung & Dr Berg have been incredibly helpful. Thank God for you.
What have you learned? Do you follow any diets or eat specific food to help or heal fatty liver?
So we must have the same doctor! 😉
Pretty shameful that so many people have this and we pay money to see doctors with no guidance other than lose weight! It's also shameful we have to go to You tube to know how to treat it! All I can say is thank God those people put out videos to inform us!
@@jesus_rt345 dr. Fung. Fasting’
That lady at 7:30, 😂😂 rolling her eyes at Mr. FlavCity!
The FDA absolutely hates this guy
He be exposing stuff! God Bless Him ♥️🙏🏼
YESSSSS! The one video I asked for and have been waiting on! Thank you so much, Bobby!💙
Eat a slightly caloric deficit, significantly restrict glucose & fructose. Don’t drink alcohol.
Hey Bobby.....love your channel, lots of good info. I do have to mention, though, that the glycemic index for carrots is 16 and the glycemic load for a couple of small carrots is 8, putting carrots in the low range for both. 😊
You can buy Three Wishes cereal at Whole Foods. It's grain free, high in protein (8g) and low in sugar, 3g (organic cane sugar) per 3/4 cup serving.
Being diagnosed with auto immune hepatitis. Im always looking for healthy liver foods! Love your channel and just ordered both books.
Do you follow any diets? I was diagnosed with fatty liver last year
I am almost 72 and recently diagnosed with a fatty liver. My doctor immediately put me on medication. No! I am wholeheartedly endorsing the low carb diet. I appreciate your video and will definitely check out Dr fong. Thank you so much new subscriber
Non-alcoholic fatty liver is very common. It is generally diagnosed via ultrasound but many doctors will not tell you and if they do, they don't tell you what to do about it. Maybe, because a lot of their prescribed medications are metabolized in the liver and they don't want you to know that.
Yes that’s true
i love you for taking us to the store i got a fatty liver and i’m thinking when i did dirty keto a few years ago that it contributed to my diagnosis
10$ for 18 eggs. Do you expect people to be able to feed a family with costs like that?
Aldi’s has same quality of those eggs at 12 eggs less then $4.00 usually.
I don't know where you live, but at Aldi in Houston 12 eggs are .81 cents, at Kroger 18 eggs are 1.45
Walmart--half that price for Eggland's Best
You will pay, either at the grocery or at the pharmacy, but you will pay.
18 organic WholeFoods eggs on sale, $4.87 for prime members? Something like that amount. Even without the prime discount, it’s a good price on sale, compared to Publix organic eggs.
I have a rare liver disease that's non alcoholic related. It's stage 4 but been like that for 5 years bc I m 90% vegan. TY for sharing your knowledge!
go carnivore
Thank you so much for addressing the proper ingredients to purchase and how to use them. Nobody seems to address how to drink coffee when it comes to NAFLD just that it helps. I'll definitely be saving this for future reference.
I was recently diagnosed with fatty liver. It was caused by my gall bladder surgery. I was not put on a low-fat diet and the surgeon told me I can eat whatever I want. LIE! So now, I have fatty live disease. I started restructuring my whole eating routine. Stevia only no sugar or sweeteners, apple cider vinegar, boiled chicken, etc. I am also eating lesser portions, half of what I was used to on my plate. And I am doing LIA(low impact aerobics), weights, elyptical, and long distance walking. I've already lost over 10 lbs. Thank you for your video. It helped a lot.
Last year, I went keto/low carb and have gotten off meds and lost weight. My latest liver ultrasound showed milder fatty liver so I'm heading in the right direction. Sadly, my doctor advised a low fat diet...I wish he'd watched you or Dr. Fung.
low fat and whole grain is still the official medical recommandation. I find it hard to stay satiated on this.
If you don't have a gallbladder; yes you should worry about fat intake. And always take ox bile with you food. (I get mine at whole foods 365 Daily Digestive)
I do not eat any food with more than 8g carbs per servings.
I currently got diagnosed w fatty liver now have to under go a liver panel..we dont have a whole foods here but this gives me a good enough idea thank you
Hello . I just wanted to say when I was watching the youtuber "German in Venice",he mentioned that Aldi's and Trader Joe's is owned by the same German Brothers ,they either inherited or bought Aldi's from their Mother. Thanks
I like the info you have to share. I have non alcoholic cirrhosis and learning about how holistic herbal foods can help.
Thanks for needed info. Recently told avoid ALL oils even nuts, seeds, olives...🙂
Wow! THANK YOU, MR. PARTISH& CREW!! SSSOOO MUCH INFO!! GLAD I got you as a list on TH-cam!! Thanks for all yall do!!
God bless you! Diagnosed with Nash stage 2 and been following dr.s recommendations. Just waking up to the idea that keto would be a better option to heal my liver. Thank you for these recommendations!
Arugula. Mustard. Wild blueberries. Olive and coconut oil. Keto and whole foods. Little fruit. ZERO sugars.
Thank you so much Bobby you are helping many many people much love
I love hemp hearts!!! I have them every day. Thanks for sharing other healthy staples with us Bobby!
How do you prepare it? Thanks
@@sdla690 I use it in my smoothies. I use almond milk, collagen protein powder, mixed berries, and the hemp hearts. Blend it all up. My go to breakfast
Sprinkle on salad
A few yrs ago I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and the dr gave me a sample daily menu of foods to eat. Great ! When I actually read it I was shocked. It was oatmeal for breakfast, cream of chicken soup for lunch, baked potatoe, turkey sandwich on white or wheat, etc. I couldn’t believe all the carbs ! I’m no diet expert but I knew it was so wrong. So I went low carb, not quite keto but close, and lost 30 lbs, A1C down, liver enzymes down, LDL DOWN ! LDL was a huge surprise because it dropped so fast (3 months) from 280 to 180. My body just can’t take starchy foods though I love it so the transition was tough. I eat lots of protein, veg and fresh fruit and the numbers keep dropping.
I'm gonna make my own granola... Found chipped raw coconut, nothing added -- at BIG LOTS, will add flaked nuts, hemp hearts, chia, flaxseed meal, egg white, lakanto golden, cinnamon, blend and spread on cookie sheet - toast and add some avocado oil, salt, to taste... We'll see...
yes plz continue with videos like this 1. I'm just learning about fatty liver and plan on making some changes to my diet. Thank you.
Bobby you are so informative. Such a useful video. Much appreciated as usual. Extremely helpful. Can you do a video for low blood pressure please. Also for me high cholesterol one please. Thank you so very much you and your team!!! Much love to you your lovely wife and superstar Rosie. Thank you so very much. Kindest regards from England.
Sounds like something was allowed in our food/water system that started the problem. Hormones, Roundup, Nutrasweet, etc., probably introduced in the late 1970s. Finding out what that was might help eliminate-or at least lessen-the problem
Unfortunately there is no such thing as sustainably farmed, it's just a marketing phrase. That salmon would be grey if the fish were not fed coloring. Wild caught only. Seaspiracy.
Go vegan.
Gray from ocean?
@@ButtercupYeshua that's just the natural color of the fish.
@@ButtercupYeshua farmed is gray. Not wild.
@kauigirl808 Go omnivore
From the bottom of my heart so much thanks to sharing.I like watching your vlogs very good help.Good prevention to avoid illnesses.More blessing!
Been following Dr Jason Fung for years, changed my diet to low carb high fat keto and Intermittent fasting reversed my insulin resistance thanks to him. Enjoy your videos especially the food hauls and explaining different foods.
Great 👍 Information 👌
You are truly the best Bobby! Thank you for caring and all your great advice! Many blessings to you 😇
Great subject! I make “Tolerant” chick pea penne pasta. I find that it isn’t good the next day, now I take the leftovers and purée it to make a soup base 👍
The culprit is High Fructose Corn Syrup. It’s hard to find food and beverage manufacturers that don’t use it these days. HFCS is metabolized in your liver and it’s getting overwhelmed when it can’t break it down. White cane sugar is metabolized in the kidneys and doesn’t cause as much damage to the kidneys as HFCS does. I was under doctor supervision and lost 65+ plus pounds by drastically reducing or eliminating HFCS.
I am overwhelmed and confused now. Previously you said whole grain pasta and lentil pasta was good and didn't spike blood sugar, now all of a sudden it spikes blood sugar and creates and insulin response and now we have to avoid it. Someone please clarify this contradictory info? I was also under the impression that hemp hearts had too much omega 6? Going keto can't be the only way to fix fatty liver disease. This was by far the most depressing info I've consumed in a while. No oatmeal even?
I don't believe oats are entirely taboo. I actually went on an eating program that included oats, rice, quinoa, and couscous, and lost 46lbs in about 7-8 months. I think monitoring how much of those grains you eat per day is key. So, for instance, I eat cooked or soaked oats that measure to half a cup dry and that is the only grain serving I eat for the entire day. I have 1/2 cup of cooked rice for one of my meals, and that's it for the day. Same with quinoa or couscous. Insulin spikes every time you eat, but if you're controlling how much grain you are consuming you're also making sure that the spike doesn't get out of control. I think Bobby is right in giving advice to steer clear of grains for those who have fatty liver disease, but once that liver has had a chance to heal and function the way it's supposed to, I think it's actually good to have some healthy grains on the menu.
Whole grain pasta and oatmeal may be marginally ok for those with no health issues but they spike insulin far too much for those trying to heal nafld.
Rennie Palmer but couscous is not a grain. Couscous is actually made using semolina (as for when making pasta) and processed into little 'grain like' shapes.
@@nadinecamara5123 yes that's right, couscous is made using semolina granules, but semolina is made from crushed durum wheat, which is a grain :) That really wasn't so much my point. Rather it was that there are some grain-like healthy foods that are higher in carbohydrates (which can over-spike insulin if overeaten), but as long as they are eaten in moderate amounts, they shouldn't be a problem.
@@renniepalmer5564 I was diagnosed with fatty liver last year can you please help me what diet or food should I avoid or consume? To start healing/reversing fatty liver?
Broccoli, cabbage, brussell sprouts, caluflower
Hemp heart porridge.
Thrive. COCONUT flake CEREAL.
Coffee
COffee Decafe only swiss water process
Oils. Coconut. olive oil. Avacado.
Your videos are helpful and awesome. You educate us in what healthy foods to buy. Thank you for that! 😃
This is life saving information. I am against palm “harvesting” several species of animals are killed defending their ONLY food source please boycott PALM OIL and anything palm!!! Thank you so much for the research you have added to this, I agree with everything except the palm oil/ palm products and will NOT use canola… it was developed as a light machine oil… I get inflammation when i eat it/ consume so must check labels. You’re awesome keep up the awesome work!!!
Good video. A condition that I had for many years! Thanks for educating others about this insidious disease.
I ate my way to become a type 2 diabetic. So, I have to eat my way out. Since 01/01/2021, I have been eating one meal a day and no carbs & no sugar diet regimen. I have lost 50lbs from 185lbs to 135lbs. I feel great and no more pills. My fatty liver is almost completely gone. Thank you so much Dr. Fung and you that showing people what to eat and what to do to become healthy. I still remember Dr. Fung has said that pills make money and fasting doesn't. LOL. Fasting definitely works!!!!
