I have a friend who went to the IDM clinic in Toronto. He is CURED!!! Off 13 medications which he was on for 20 years. 74 years old and in the best health ever!!!
Thank You Dr. Fung. Iam diabetic since 29 years. I had reached 150 units of insulin per day and gained almost 28 kgs in weight. now only 10 units of insulin per day and lost 16 kgs, feeling great, all due to 18/6 fasting.
Occam's razor. The simplest answer is usually the correct one. At least in my "experiment of one", Jason Fung practically saved my life. First found his "Solving the two compartment storage problem" video and it completely changed my life. That was December. By March was down 30 pounds. Today I'm down almost 40 and in the best health of my adult life.
I cant get enough of this doctor he explains his points so well, just enough science for clarity and no punches pulled. The icing on the cake is that he is funny with it! Great job.
The man who changed my life!! And I had no illness, I am just a vain aging Sagittarius who was looking at gaining another size each yr. I was a tight sz 10, in a matter of months after getting Dr Fung's book The Complete Guide to Fasting I was and still am a sz 0-2, and have loved fasting so much that I am now a Snake Dieter and a carnivore. The older we get the quicker we need to get hold of our health, you can get away with a lot when you're young tho these days our diets are so poor even the children are suffering. New sub, thank you so much, whenever I hear Jason I get re-energized and re-inspired to stay on a fasting focused lifestyle!
I noticed having been on a ketogenic diet for 15 months that my insulin sensitivity is now very high. Having tried eating a pack of chocolate biscuits in one sitting, the highest my blood sugar got was 6.4 and after an hour was back to normal, 5.2 In all I lost 18kg.
one of the best lectures of dr. fung. for me super high fat keto works great. i did keto for a year and of course my diabetes went away. pre-diabetes went away. 25kg of body fat went away. then things got to a halt and i regained 5kg. my metabolism slowed down. not i do meals with at least 95% of saturated fat. and things are working again great. the key is that i only need one meal with protein per day. the rest i do fat meals: * black coffee with lard (much better than mct) * a fat soup (beff fond + water + grained broth + lard + lard + lard) * spinach + lardo (only the white fat from the pork cut in small dices) + red chili + garlic the trick is that insulin is going down completely and therefor glucagon is going up. and glucagon is the magic hormone that tells the fat cells to release their fat. in my opinion this kind of pure fat fasting where you also massively reduce protein it is more effective that water fasting because you are not hungry, you don't have to count calories (the body takes care of hunger/satiety like it should be), you crank up your metabolism short term and you crank up your metabolism long term by supporting mitochondrial growth that people need desperately when they have a low (aka damaged) metabolism. now my weight loss is working again and i have more energy :-) so next year i will have a totally flat belly (maybe a six-pack?) and this is a huge achievement after being over weight the last 35 years (now 47). so again - the first (and practically only) law of weight loss: ***** keep insulin low so that glucagon gets high *****
My husband has type 2 diabetes and has been on Metformin for many years. We have been eating low carb, but after only two 24 hour fasts, his blood sugar in the morning went to 5.4. Usually it is at about 7. Amazing. Thank you Dr. Fung.
So as a nurse, when I give people insulin for high blood sugar, I feel like I am doing something wrong! I wish more doctors would get on board with this. Then there is the "snack" after insulin. I put insulin in your body then have to give you a snack so your blood sugar doesn't go too low, makes not a lot of sense to me!
This man is so brilliant and his information has saved my life ! I now have an official NHS diagnoses of ' Type 2 Diabetes controlled through diet alone ' Its not diet alone as I fast as well
Thank you Dr Fung! I feel I might someday be able to eat some bananas and watermelon in my future. That I won't have to be in ketosis the rest of my life as long as I balance my diet. My a1c on 1 Feb 2019 was 10.1 - I was started on metforim and glipizide. Glipizide was stop after 9 days when my BS hit 66. I stop metforim myself when I started keto on 22 Feb 2019 On 17 May 2019 my A1c was 5.3 The Lowest it's been in 9 years. My AST AND ALT much better and normal range, HDL and Trig are normal. Still have hypertension but it's better. Wight went from 232lb to 196 so far. Spreading the word to my fellow U.S. veterans and co-workers. Thank you!💜💜💜💜💜💜
This is great to hear. Dr. Jason Fung is becoming legendary and it is well deserved. I am 62 and just reversed type 2 and lost 50 lbs. doing it in the last two years. I was looking for information on it on the Internet and ran into Dr. Fung's lectures. I have been following him and telling everyone I know with diabetic issues, or trouble losing weight, about him since.
Firstly, I am really thankful for your effort & courage. You are getting more wise on the Insulin, Diabetic, Obesity & Fatty Liver. And your presentation is more simple & informative. Hope the more doctor will continue keep the noble standard to look after the wellbeing of patients
How much of this has to do with the fact that if you CURE type 2 diabetes in a patient, you make a little bit of money. But if you TREAT type 2 diabetes, you make a LOT of money.
Im in Palm Beach, Florida I started to watch and read Dr Fungs's Book last December. My Glucose went down from 250 to 95 in the morning. A1c from 8.5 to 6.2 and Triglycerides from 270 to 100!!! So this approach really works!
Thank you dr Fung.I had my strokes 3 years ago. Before my stroke, i knew or thought that I knew about diets. and I was very good about eating and i exercise every day. After i got my strokes; I began to really learn about diets and health. I have been fasting because I really believe in your theories about type 2 diabetes, I don't trust the internet too much but i got my information of the internet because i am poor. Thank you dr.Fung. I can make myself fat or show my 6pack stomach any time i want to. There are so much to learn and i love it.
Sure you can nominate him, but he'll never get it. There's too much money at stake to be lost, by major industries. They will give Al Gore a Nobel Prize for holding a rock concert, and claiming he's solved global warming. But do you really think the fast food companies, sugar, pharmaceutical corporations, Pepsico etc want this catching on? Medical Doctors, cardiologists, nurses, and all other support staff would be out of work if there weren't people chronically sick. What about Kelloggs, Post Cereal, Nabisco? This pandemic wouldn't be a fraction of what it is, if young, and middle aged people were metabolically healthy, and not overweight. But then Pfizer, Mondera, and Astrazenica wouldn't be raking in the dough selling vaccine, and the corporations that produce respirators, and ventilators would have to cut their production. The major news media are non-stop talking vaccine, and coronavirus right now, but not a word about healthy living. So I doubt Jason Fung, Shawn Baker, or any of the others working tirelessly will ever get a Nobel Prize, but I fully agree with you.... they each deserve one.
Dr. Fung is a awesome, brave and honest doctor! I've been watching his speeches... I've been doing the water/coffee fasting for 36-48 hours during the weekend six months ago. Recently I've advanced to the 16/8 diet during the weekdays. Reason and results: Build up my six-pack (my current BMI is ~21.3 from 23.5 with body fat of 13% from 18%) and reduce inflammations. I personally think that the fasting is simplest, effortless and effective way to achieve your goal(s). Ketogenic diet is too complicated for the most of beginners. So i recommend don't even think about it. However, after months of weekend fasting and 16/8 diet, it will come alone naturally. Side effects: It took me about 4 weeks to get ride of keto flu symptoms. Still working on stamina.
Jeff C . I’ve been on doctor supervised Keto diet since 2015. She told because I’m eating clean I’m not getting enough salt. When I get Keto headaches and flu try bouillon. I prefer Knorr brand. The Keto flu is the result of low sodium intake. Start with half cube and one cup of hot water. If you still have it drink the second cup. Hope this helps.
Dr. Jason Fung's eloquent and forceful focus on insulin toxicity, instead of the standard physician's fixation on glucose toxicity, is something that every physician needs to be acquainted with. If physicians fail to understand this, they shouldn't be treating diabetes. Despite the dogmatism that exists with those medical professionals that treat diabetes, hopefully diabetic patients will encounter this lecture and take matters into their own hands. If every diabetic were shown Dr. Fung's lecture, and most importantly, took his advice seriously, diabetology would be the least profitable medical specialty.
Surgery patient of ours, diabetic, developed a wound infection. His sugars were "controlled" by his PCP to 274! Admitted to the hospital and put on insulin AND a D5W drip (has GLUCOSE in it!) Dr. Fong the world needs you!
This lecture is one of the most amazing videos I’ve ever seen. I’ve been trying to find more science on heart health , respiratory health and insulin and was more than excited to watch this quite a few times. Thank you for sharing!
My doc isn't even interested in how much less insulin I take now- over the last 6 months- doesn't even want to know how many units- just get 'em in and out in 10 min...........
How much insulin you take is not the most important health parameter. You should look at the ratio of carbohydrate energy and insulin units. 50g and 20 units is much worse than 300g and 35 units. Don't get fooled by the low carb approach.
Thank you Dr. Fung for putting out this information. It's going to change many people's lives. I am telling everyone I know to watch all of you TH-cam videos, go out & purchase your books, & join your website. Thank you again.👍👍👋👋
TH-cam helped me to access this information from Dr Fung, without it I couldn't have understood anything and follow doctors who gave me metformin in 2009, since then I started looking for information, I new fasting cures many deceases, but wasn't sure until Dr Fung assured its ok to fast, just recently a doctor told me not to fast and said it can create problems, when I assured and told him he is wrong, he stopped telling me. Stopped metformin, doing intermittent fasting and Keto, never going back.
I wish my father could have heard this speach 20 years ago. He died slowly and painfully from diabetes in 2020. I am not going to let diabetes ruin my health or my children’s health.
This breaks my heart. My partner has type 2 and his blood sugar is spiking exactly the way Dr Fung describes and his Dr is giving him more insulin. I have tried to get him to go low carb but he just gets angry with me and tells me not to believe what I see on YT. He is going to go the way of all diabetics and it's all so unnecessary.
Perhaps he might take it more seriously if you get him a copy od Dr Fung's book "The Diabetes Code", and point out that he is a respected nephrologist. Some people will take the printed word far more seriously than YT, as if paper automatically conveys credibility. I was on insulin 4 times a day, I now take no diabetes related meds and have a steady Hba1c of 5.0. I wish you the best of luck convincing him to save his own life.
There is a direct correlation over the last eighty years with people getting fatter, and taking prescription drugs.Psychiatric drugs in particular can increase the appetite , which will often lead to diabetes.Unless people recognise this and stop feeding their metabolism with these poisons, and live like they used to without these unnecessary chemical fixes, they will continue to get very sick.I think it is disgusting that children are now fed these toxins, they honestly don't stand a chance.
@@kutrabilada8865 I guess, Catina is just a simple old fashioned envious person ..... Ive seen that many times, people that are small doesnt like, when others get a compliment ....
So is the state of hyperinsulinemia entirely attributable to the fatty liver and fatty pancreas, or is there also a dose adaptation effect similar to opiods? I've heard both opinions from Dr. Fung, but in this presentation I only hear impact of the fatty liver and fatty pancreas described. So is there, or is there not, an insulin dose adaptation effect as a result of chronically high insulin due to too frequent eating and too high carbohydrate intake? Is that insulin dose adaptation strictly the effect of the fatty liver and fatty pancreas? Any clarification helpful!
The theory here is that insulin is the missing variable in healthcare. It is never measured. Ask your doctor to measure insulin and they will measure glucose. In fact the standard for normal fasting insulin is
Robert Kavaler - Cleveland Heartlab will do it- my Doctor here in Oklahoma ordered it. My number was 14.1- didn’t know it should be less than 6- where did you find that info?
@@lavontolbert3864 HOMA-IR (computed as glucose x insulin / 405) greater than 2 indicates insulin resistance and less than 1 indicates no IR, so I use 1.5 as the high-end limit. If you assume glucose is less than 100 then 1.5 x 405 / 100 = 6.075 ballpark. While 6 is OK, if I could shoot for something I would shoot for 4 or 5. Mine was at 11.2 even after 2 months on a low carb diet and then 5.5 after 5 months. Hope to see it less than 5 next time I test.
The Ketogenic Diet is a popular and effective method for overcoming weight loss and insulin resistance. There is much on TH-cam about it. This is what I did: Cut alcohol to zero. Cut sugar to zero. Reduced fructose - ie only fruit I ate were lemons, limes, tomatoes and avocados. Reduced carbs to near zero - so no grains, potatoes etc. I lost 14 kg in two months and my A1C went from 'Pre-Diabetic' to normal. I ate the mainly cruciferous vegetables, and had proteins from red meat, chicken, pork, fish, eggs. I had fats from meat, bacon, cream, butter, olive oil, avocado oil, coconut oil. Also I only ate twice a day. From then onwards I kept to the diet and lost 2 to 3 kgs a month. In a few months I may add moderate amount of carbs in the form of some legumes, and maybe some berries. Later I may get back to my single malts! Incidentally this diet is not difficult to keep in that that it have one truly wonderful thing. You do not get hungry on this diet! The keto diet can be augmented by some exercise and by what is known as intermittent fasting.
Good lecture but I don't understand is it cured really? Or are you just avoiding foods that spike the insulin? Like can someone who does this for a couple years then go back to eating bread and things and have the same tolerance as a non diabetic? Maybe I misunderstood some bits
Thank you so much for sharing the valuable info. I am on Keto + OMAD for 11 days now and my morning BG has been coming down to less than 120 now compares to over 120 before fasting. However, though my BG does go down through out the day to around 95 but i am wondering why it still high in the morning ranging from 110-120 and even higher after exercise in the morning to 130-140? Thank you for your kind response.
Doctor told me I was pre-diabetic. I am eating only meat, eggs, animal fat and I am losing 500 gr~1 pound a day or every third day, it fluctuates. Meat till satiety and no more, I don't eat and I skip lots of meals because I am not hungry. Eating animal fat is important, like fat meat or lean meat fried in lard, tallow, butter. This feeling of balance in my body I didn't felt for 20 years. I think diabetes is one manifestation of being allergic to carbs, sugars. Clearly I am from hunters ancestry. I ate a diet of fruits and vegetables for six years, raw vegan, and didn't cured that, it helped but didn't finished this. I would have preferred to do it all the way like this, eating only meat for a period of time, till resolution
Dr. Fung’s work is revolutionary. I so enjoy the information he brings to those of us who are struggling with diabetes. However, it is not nearly a matter of not being “PC“ when he use the word retard. I was very disheartened by this. Individuals who are developmentally or intellectually disabled deserve as much right as others. “Retard” is an extremely offensive word in for this smart man not to recognize it doesn’t make him very aware. Yes, the information he brings is so valuable, but his lack of awareness was quite disappointing.
I was diabetic since 2006. I used to take metformin 1gm, glimepiride 2 mg and glyclazide 30. Still fbs was above 200 and A1c 9. I started lchf 30 months ago. My A1c came down to 7. Lipids became normal. ALT reduced to 20. I stopped all medicines. Fine. But after one year, sugar started rising. When it reached 200, I started metformin 1gm again. But it is not becoming normal. Always varying between 140 and 200. My fasting insulin is stable after diet between 2 and 3. But sugar is not under control. Other markers are keeping fine. Why sugar is not under control even after 30 months of lchf?
"keto" alone means nothing. A keto diet that works must be well formulated. Same story for a carnivore diet, a diet with only chicken would be really poor. A diet composed of fat meat and organ meat is a great diet with a potential to cure diseases.
You need to explain better why the Roux-en-Y work by cutting out the GIP part in in the intestines, and this is what cures diabetes, not that they can not eat.
and it also wrong that it does not matter what kind if bariatric surgery you do, Roux-en-Y is by far better in curing diabetes, since the procedure lowers insulin secretion in itself. The reduction in insulin sensitivity from reduced liver fat is the same in all procedures.
Dr Fung, I have been fasting OMAD for 10 days, but my glucose has come down to 70 and the Hb to 8.8 which makes me anemic. Do you think fasting has caused anemia?
F Rogers thanks so much for your answer. I have consulted a physician and have done blood work. For the moment I won’t be able to do OMAD, but I will continue in Keto, taking it easy and keeping a low carb diet. I was so enthusiastic about fasting and getting healthy that I overlooked what you say. Thanks again!!!
You need to read Dr Fung's book ' The Diabetes Code'. Fasting will help cure your diabetes. You need to eat food with low carbohydrates . No flour, bread, cakes, potatoes, sugar. Eat meat & vegetables with some fat like butter or cream in your food. Fat will keep you feeling full, you will not get hungry. You will not feel weak on this diet. Start with short fast like 12 hours & as you get better you can go to 24hrs. Trust this doctor , he is amazing.
High fat diets are as bad as high carb ones ... gall stones and other shit like that ... your gallbladder and liver get screwed ... it has to be both low fat and low carb ... you only need 30 grams of fat per day
Fasting is not starving. Starving is when you have no food and your body is an acceptable weight or below acceptable weight. Fasting is when you have food but choose to not eat it and your weight is in the obese, overweight, or acceptable-weight range. Fasting doesn't damage the body because the body is eating its stored fat. Starving damages the body because the body is eating the muscles and other tissues because the body has no more fat on it to eat.
I’ve lost a bit of respect for Dr Fung. A few anecdotes... sorry not reliable. He’s selling his thing; fasting. I’m not saying fasting is bad, I do it.
I love Dr. Fung, I really do. And this is an extremely informative lecture. However, he has a speaking habit that DRIVES ME CRAZY. He ends virtually every other sentence with, "Right?" Makes it very difficult for me to focus on content; like fingernails on a chalk board. Anyway, I wish he'd learn how to stop doing that.
So, you criticise that the current diabetes treatment is only about keeping blood sugar levels normal. But then you promote low carb diets which achieve this by restriction of a whole macronutrient without curing the underlying condition? People on keto diets continue to be carbohydrate intolerant. You avoid the intolerance by not eating carbs, horrible advice!

What exactly u did pls reply

Me too joy to watch him
What a legend dr fung is. One of his greatest lectures
Dr Jason Fung, will be saving millions and millions of people in the future. He is worthy a Nobel prize and he is definitely #HumansBeeingBros
Dr. Fung for Nobel Prize.
Big Pharma Will never allow
I second it.
The man who changed my life!! And I had no illness, I am just a vain aging Sagittarius who was looking at gaining another size each yr. I was a tight sz 10, in a matter of months after getting Dr Fung's book The Complete Guide to Fasting I was and still am a sz 0-2, and have loved fasting so much that I am now a Snake Dieter and a carnivore. The older we get the quicker we need to get hold of our health, you can get away with a lot when you're young tho these days our diets are so poor even the children are suffering. New sub, thank you so much, whenever I hear Jason I get re-energized and re-inspired to stay on a fasting focused lifestyle!
Keep on fasting for health. Periods of feeding and periods of fasting. Have a good night. Dr. Jason Fung is the man to follow for health
I noticed having been on a ketogenic diet for 15 months that my insulin sensitivity is now very high. Having tried eating a pack of chocolate biscuits in one sitting, the highest my blood sugar got was 6.4 and after an hour was back to normal, 5.2 In all I lost 18kg.
Wow shocking result
one of the best lectures of dr. fung.
for me super high fat keto works great.
i did keto for a year and of course my diabetes went away. pre-diabetes went away. 25kg of body fat went away.
then things got to a halt and i regained 5kg. my metabolism slowed down.
not i do meals with at least 95% of saturated fat. and things are working again great.
the key is that i only need one meal with protein per day. the rest i do fat meals:
* black coffee with lard (much better than mct)
* a fat soup (beff fond + water + grained broth + lard + lard + lard)
* spinach + lardo (only the white fat from the pork cut in small dices) + red chili + garlic
the trick is that insulin is going down completely and therefor glucagon is going up.
and glucagon is the magic hormone that tells the fat cells to release their fat.
in my opinion this kind of pure fat fasting where you also massively reduce protein it is more effective that water fasting because you are not hungry, you don't have to count calories (the body takes care of hunger/satiety like it should be), you crank up your metabolism short term and you crank up your metabolism long term by supporting mitochondrial growth that people need desperately when they have a low (aka damaged) metabolism.
now my weight loss is working again and i have more energy :-)
so next year i will have a totally flat belly (maybe a six-pack?) and this is a huge achievement after being over weight the last 35 years (now 47).
so again - the first (and practically only) law of weight loss:
***** keep insulin low so that glucagon gets high *****
My husband has type 2 diabetes and has been on Metformin for many years. We have been eating low carb, but after only two 24 hour fasts, his blood sugar in the morning went to 5.4. Usually it is at about 7. Amazing. Thank you Dr. Fung.

michelle russell do no harm!
Show your doctor this video if he/she can pay attention
The pharmaceutical industry dictates the medical community on how to treat diseases.. we're doing it wrong.
Hi Michelle, buy Dr. Jason Fung book. He is leading the field in this matter. Good luck
This man is so brilliant and his information has saved my life ! I now have an official NHS diagnoses of ' Type 2 Diabetes controlled through diet alone ' Its not diet alone as I fast as well
saved me to
I listen to all Dr Fung lectures I can find, Awesome!

Brilliance on display
Would it possible to nominate Dr. Fung for the Nobel prize? He has articultaed the very cure for metabolic syndrome! Wow. Greatness!
Sure you can nominate him, but he'll never get it. There's too much money at stake to be lost, by major industries. They will give Al Gore a Nobel Prize for holding a rock concert, and claiming he's solved global warming.

A man who can help..I believe in him..stay blessed!! DR FONG.
It’s Dr Fung 👍

Sorry one of our surgeons is Dr. Fong. This obviously is Dr. Fung.
Love your videos! God bless for saving people and changing the way diabetes is treated!
This makes so much sense! Keep up the good work.
God bless Dr Fung. in 4 months I lowered my A1C from 9.4 to 4.9.
Sense has never sounded so sweet
❤
I absolutely love this man!
Dr Jason Fung is God-sent!
Best doc !! My diabetes is up up and away !!
Dr. Fung is amazing and brilliant. He is helping so many people turn their health around.
This lecture is one of the most amazing videos I’ve ever seen.
I’ve been trying to find more science on heart health , respiratory health and insulin and was more than excited to watch this quite a few times. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Dr Fung another brilliant lecture. Will share and watch again.
My doc isn't even interested in how much less insulin I take now- over the last 6 months- doesn't even want to know how many units- just get 'em in and out in 10 min...........
How much insulin you take is not the most important health parameter. You should look at the ratio of carbohydrate energy and insulin units. 50g and 20 units is much worse than 300g and 35 units. Don't get fooled by the low carb approach.
Thank you Dr. Fung for putting out this information. It's going to change many people's lives. I am telling everyone I know to watch all of you TH-cam videos, go out & purchase your books, & join your website. Thank you again.👍👍👋👋
Brilliant - thank you Dr Fung! Plenty of food for thought here! 😋
TH-cam helped me to access this information from Dr Fung, without it I couldn't have understood anything and follow doctors who gave me metformin in 2009, since then I started looking for information, I new fasting cures many deceases, but wasn't sure until Dr Fung assured its ok to fast, just recently a doctor told me not to fast and said it can create problems, when I assured and told him he is wrong, he stopped telling me.
Stopped metformin, doing intermittent fasting and Keto, never going back.
I wish my father could have heard this speach 20 years ago. He died slowly and painfully from diabetes in 2020. I am not going to let diabetes ruin my health or my children’s health.
Brilliant fellow...
Hats off sir! 🫡
thanks Doc Jason Fung
Amen. Thank you brother.
Brilliant presentation ❤️
This breaks my heart. My partner has type 2 and his blood sugar is spiking exactly the way Dr Fung describes and his Dr is giving him more insulin. I have tried to get him to go low carb but he just gets angry with me and tells me not to believe what I see on YT. He is going to go the way of all diabetics and it's all so unnecessary.
Perhaps he might take it more seriously if you get him a copy od Dr Fung's book "The Diabetes Code", and point out that he is a respected nephrologist. Some people will take the printed word far more seriously than YT, as if paper automatically conveys credibility. I was on insulin 4 times a day, I now take no diabetes related meds and have a steady Hba1c of 5.0. I wish you the best of luck convincing him to save his own life.
Dieting is not a piece of cake.
"They are nor malicious...they are just deluded" Historical quote of epochal importance.
There is a direct correlation over the last eighty years with people getting fatter, and taking prescription drugs.Psychiatric drugs in particular can increase the appetite , which will often lead to diabetes.Unless people recognise this and stop feeding their metabolism with these poisons, and live like they used to without these unnecessary chemical fixes, they will continue to get very sick.I think it is disgusting that children are now fed these toxins, they honestly don't stand a chance.
You are good doctor I will try fasting is good
How does Dr. Fung manage to look younger than before?
@D7498 I agree.
Intermitting Fasting.......😊
@@cmauro7912 I don't understand your comment, are you implying that we are his family or friends? I wish!
he may have contracted the Benjamin Button disease with intermittent fasting
@@kutrabilada8865 I guess, Catina is just a simple old fashioned envious person ..... Ive seen that many times, people that are small doesnt like, when others get a compliment ....
a doctor who really cares
So is the state of hyperinsulinemia entirely attributable to the fatty liver and fatty pancreas, or is there also a dose adaptation effect similar to opiods? I've heard both opinions from Dr. Fung, but in this presentation I only hear impact of the fatty liver and fatty pancreas described. So is there, or is there not, an insulin dose adaptation effect as a result of chronically high insulin due to too frequent eating and too high carbohydrate intake? Is that insulin dose adaptation strictly the effect of the fatty liver and fatty pancreas? Any clarification helpful!
This is Day 2 of his presentation. Watch the previous video which has Day 1 where he discusses your point.
brilliant ! i now know more thank's
The theory here is that insulin is the missing variable in healthcare. It is never measured. Ask your doctor to measure insulin and they will measure glucose. In fact the standard for normal fasting insulin is
Robert Kavaler - Cleveland Heartlab will do it- my Doctor here in Oklahoma ordered it. My number was 14.1- didn’t know it should be less than 6- where did you find that info?
@@lavontolbert3864 HOMA-IR (computed as glucose x insulin / 405) greater than 2 indicates insulin resistance and less than 1 indicates no IR, so I use 1.5 as the high-end limit. If you assume glucose is less than 100 then 1.5 x 405 / 100 = 6.075 ballpark. While 6 is OK, if I could shoot for something I would shoot for 4 or 5. Mine was at 11.2 even after 2 months on a low carb diet and then 5.5 after 5 months. Hope to see it less than 5 next time I test.
awesome, and thank you for uploading,. is there a PDF?
Fay Louise , I would recommend you get Dr Fung's book 'the obesity code' it contains the explanation about all that talks about.
Please guide us how to overcome insulin resistance and lose weight ? What type of fast n how many times n how long have to do ?
The Ketogenic Diet is a popular and effective method for overcoming weight loss and insulin resistance. There is much on TH-cam about it. This is what I did: Cut alcohol to zero. Cut sugar to zero. Reduced fructose - ie only fruit I ate were lemons, limes, tomatoes and avocados. Reduced carbs to near zero - so no grains, potatoes etc. I lost 14 kg in two months and my A1C went from 'Pre-Diabetic' to normal. I ate the mainly cruciferous vegetables, and had proteins from red meat, chicken, pork, fish, eggs. I had fats from meat, bacon, cream, butter, olive oil, avocado oil, coconut oil. Also I only ate twice a day. From then onwards I kept to the diet and lost 2 to 3 kgs a month. In a few months I may add moderate amount of carbs in the form of some legumes, and maybe some berries. Later I may get back to my single malts! Incidentally this diet is not difficult to keep in that that it have one truly wonderful thing. You do not get hungry on this diet! The keto diet can be augmented by some exercise and by what is known as intermittent fasting.
@@zogzog1063 thank you for guidance.... Please keep me updated about your diet n weight loss journey as guidance.... It helps alot
Not surprise if the AMA will label Dr Jason Fung as "Quack Doctor"
pls help me my mom is on insulin 4x a day.
Chromium is extremely important for proper insulin response.
Excessive supplementation of transition metals is dangerous. You should use chelated forms; best to get transition metals from food.
Good lecture but I don't understand is it cured really? Or are you just avoiding foods that spike the insulin? Like can someone who does this for a couple years then go back to eating bread and things and have the same tolerance as a non diabetic? Maybe I misunderstood some bits
Waheguru Satnam 🙏thank you
dr jasson ,i am 74 have rype 2 diabetis can it help me to fast as my suger is v high pl.let me know.
Thank you so much for sharing the valuable info. I am on Keto + OMAD for 11 days now and my morning BG has been coming down to less than 120 now compares to over 120 before fasting. However, though my BG does go down through out the day to around 95 but i am wondering why it still high in the morning ranging from 110-120 and even higher after exercise in the morning to 130-140? Thank you for your kind response.
What is OMAD?
@@thefaster5237 OMAD= one meal a day
@@ajay97005 Thank you!
May be due to dawn syndrome
Doctor told me I was pre-diabetic. I am eating only meat, eggs, animal fat and I am losing 500 gr~1 pound a day or every third day, it fluctuates. Meat till satiety and no more, I don't eat and I skip lots of meals because I am not hungry. Eating animal fat is important, like fat meat or lean meat fried in lard, tallow, butter. This feeling of balance in my body I didn't felt for 20 years. I think diabetes is one manifestation of being allergic to carbs, sugars. Clearly I am from hunters ancestry. I ate a diet of fruits and vegetables for six years, raw vegan, and didn't cured that, it helped but didn't finished this. I would have preferred to do it all the way like this, eating only meat for a period of time, till resolution
Why don't you try the Carnivore diet. You can get more information from Dr Berry TH-cam video.
Sorry I misspelled it's DR. FUNG
I never obese nor overweight, but I am diabetic, A1c 6.5%. What should I do ? Doing OMAD, BMI 20.86, fasting BG 6.1 ~6.7
Do you reduce how much carbohydrate you eat in a day?
@@BeautifulGood713 very low carb
Dr. Fung’s work is revolutionary. I so enjoy the information he brings to those of us who are struggling with diabetes. However, it is not nearly a matter of not being “PC“ when he use the word retard. I was very disheartened by this. Individuals who are developmentally or intellectually disabled deserve as much right as others. “Retard” is an extremely offensive word in for this smart man not to recognize it doesn’t make him very aware. Yes, the information he brings is so valuable, but his lack of awareness was quite disappointing.
My mom has been told her type 2 diabetes has turned into type 1 and is now on a pump. Can this be reversed and healed?
Yes it can be. Dr. Fung has reversed diabetes in patients who had been on insulin for over 10 years
I hope Dr Fung is correct in his thinking, presentation and core beliefs.

MARGARET not Mary Mead.... a famous anthropologist
I was diabetic since 2006. I used to take metformin 1gm, glimepiride 2 mg and glyclazide 30. Still fbs was above 200 and A1c 9. I started lchf 30 months ago. My A1c came down to 7. Lipids became normal. ALT reduced to 20. I stopped all medicines. Fine. But after one year, sugar started rising. When it reached 200, I started metformin 1gm again. But it is not becoming normal. Always varying between 140 and 200. My fasting insulin is stable after diet between 2 and 3. But sugar is not under control. Other markers are keeping fine.
Why sugar is not under control even after 30 months of lchf?
one option: vegetable of any kind could be problematic even if low carb. ultimate option: carnivore diet.
"keto" alone means nothing. A keto diet that works must be well formulated. Same story for a carnivore diet, a diet with only chicken would be really poor. A diet composed of fat meat and organ meat is a great diet with a potential to cure diseases.
High fat diet is as bad as high carb one
Ignorance is as bas as nothing else

Why are most of you responding ignoring the intermittent fasting part of this?
What can I do?
Look for a dr
Carolina Chicata B Thanks, I will
What can you do about what? No one can answer your question without more context.
IncognitoTorpedo you just saw one message, there was a previous one which explained my problem. Thanks for taking the time in sending me an answer!
You need to explain better why the Roux-en-Y work by cutting out the GIP part in in the intestines, and this is what cures diabetes, not that they can not eat.
and it also wrong that it does not matter what kind if bariatric surgery you do, Roux-en-Y is by far better in curing diabetes, since the procedure lowers insulin secretion in itself. The reduction in insulin sensitivity from reduced liver fat is the same in all procedures.
Dr Fung, I have been fasting OMAD for 10 days, but my glucose has come down to 70 and the Hb to 8.8 which makes me anemic. Do you think fasting has caused anemia?
F Rogers thanks so much for your answer. I have consulted a physician and have done blood work. For the moment I won’t be able to do OMAD, but I will continue in Keto, taking it easy and keeping a low carb diet. I was so enthusiastic about fasting and getting healthy that I overlooked what you say. Thanks again!!!
i am not obese ,age 57,130 lbs diabetic for 25 years. genetic diabetes. Is intermittent fastng good for me. I will be more weak
You need to read Dr Fung's book ' The Diabetes Code'. Fasting will help cure your diabetes. You need to eat food with low carbohydrates . No flour, bread, cakes, potatoes, sugar. Eat meat & vegetables with some fat like butter or cream in your food. Fat will keep you feeling full, you will not get hungry. You will not feel weak on this diet. Start with short fast like 12 hours & as you get better you can go to 24hrs. Trust this doctor , he is amazing.
Jason Fung wrote a good blog post on Nathan Pritikin - check it out! th-cam.com/video/UfFoqXJouOI/w-d-xo.html
High fat diets are as bad as high carb ones ... gall stones and other shit like that ... your gallbladder and liver get screwed ... it has to be both low fat and low carb ... you only need 30 grams of fat per day
That's a long sales pitch for your website.
Animal protein spike insulin as much as sugar. A steak releases more insulin than pasta. Going low carb won't necessarily help.

Doesn't prolonged starvation cause diabetes? Wouldn't fasting do the sane thing in people who are not diabetic?
McCarthy Kane 3 years and still waiting with no evidence of it coming
Fasting is not starving. Starving is when you have no food and your body is an acceptable weight or below acceptable weight. Fasting is when you have food but choose to not eat it and your weight is in the obese, overweight, or acceptable-weight range.
Fasting doesn't damage the body because the body is eating its stored fat. Starving damages the body because the body is eating the muscles and other tissues because the body has no more fat on it to eat.
WTF are you talking about. 😂😂😂
WTF are you doing here?
I’ve lost a bit of respect for Dr Fung. A few anecdotes... sorry not reliable. He’s selling his thing; fasting. I’m not saying fasting is bad, I do it.
I love Dr. Fung, I really do. And this is an extremely informative lecture. However, he has a speaking habit that DRIVES ME CRAZY. He ends virtually every other sentence with, "Right?" Makes it very difficult for me to focus on content; like fingernails on a chalk board. Anyway, I wish he'd learn how to stop doing that.
There is no cure for Obama.Was the poster made in soviet union ?
So, you criticise that the current diabetes treatment is only about keeping blood sugar levels normal. But then you promote low carb diets which achieve this by restriction of a whole macronutrient without curing the underlying condition? People on keto diets continue to be carbohydrate intolerant. You avoid the intolerance by not eating carbs, horrible advice!
Everything Dr. FUNG SAYS IS BACKED WITH DATA AND DECADES OF IT. EVERYTHING SAY IS BACKED WITH NOTHING. SO GET LOST
