- Dr. Jason Fung completed medical school and internal medicine at the University of Toronto before finishing his nephrology fellowship at the University of California, Los Angeles at the Cedars-Sinai hospital.
He now has a practice in Ontario, Canada where he uses his Intensive Dietary Management program to help all sorts of patients, but especially those suffering from the two big epidemics of modern times: obesity and type 2 diabetes.
Dr. Fung uses innovative solutions to these problems, realising that conventional treatments are not that effective in helping people. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
Dr Jason is trying to shut multi trillion industry of these pharmaceutical industry.
What a great man.
Bless you.

I think another industry involved in this is the dieting industry, and the food industries.
and the diet industry, both of which is making us SICKER every day!
Greensoftech ltd yes.... he’s so great.
God protect him from those whose only mission is to cash in on the sickly. They want us sick...not dead and not well. Because sick makes them money so evil.
He is simply telling the truth, brilliantly and effortlessly; stating objective facts on a topic drowning in subjectivity. He's not trying to shut the pharmaceutical.
The freedom to fast for health is the worst nightmare for the food and pharmaceutical industry.
The food industry was built on consumers stuffing their face with their products 3x a day and have snacks in between so they can cash out. The world is built on greed not science.
Dr. Miles Monroe on fasting is very good I'm just saying folks fast all the time different ways I went on a watermelon fast & water for 5 days and I loved it everyone has aright to their fast that pleasing to them I think.
When you go to You Tube on fasting the Spirit of God will lead you who you feel comfortable with, I always for guidance our God is Universal total lives within & He love us all John 3: 16 Im just saying I been praying since I was a little girl like y yrs. My grandmother taught me to pray call on Jesus and he will answer your prayers I may be far from perfection but I'm going in perfection because our God loves us his Spirit is powerful they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth I'm glad and grateful to be alive another day
@@missionpupa So true....lay the blame squarely at the feet of multinational companies and they.re aggressive marketing
I agree to a point. Can't blame the drug companies and big corporate interest for all your your health issues.
YOU also need to take some responsibility.
Try eating less and exercising more.
Something for all of us to think about next time we are in a drive-thru line waiting for the burger and fries.
Intermittent fasting since 2017 (Oct) - 230LB to 180LB maintained since mid 2018.. 64 YEARS old
Wowww that's great. What kind of exercises you did during this course and the foods you ate afterwards. What kept you motivated as I am trying to loose weight. I am 50 yrs old weighs 223 since my desk visit in April but I was exercising a little, so it might be a little less maybe between 5-10lbs less. I'm really sick of this weight. I don't have any known or unknown health issues, thank God ❤️
Go Mark! WOOOOO!!!
My proportions are quite similar to where yours were. I'm 38 and 5 ft 8. Which fasting schedule did you use. Your answer will be appreciated. Since winter and Covid-19 lockdown I put on about 55 LB, so less than a year.
My numbers are 220 yo 170.. Doing omad. Hope I can eat clean and get organic coffee. Best to you all!
Good for you! 👍🏻
We’ve been following Dr. Fung for the last year. I hope he will be remembered in the future as one of the most influential Canadians to benefit the health of humanity. ❤️
Why is fasting such a taboo in the western world?
Because there's no money in it.
every corner is a burger joint
Doctors push eating food to get better
Penny Moore Yes, and the food and diet industry also pushes eating more. The marketing for snacks and energy drinks is never ending.
not actually fully correct = 1. if a person is eating a low fat diet - then they will be eating processed carb foods with added sugar. Now the biggest problem then is the cycle of addiction - leptin suppressed, grehlin escalates, nucleus accumbens is lit up, awaiting a reward, while initiating thought cycles to find foods to meet this need. Versus - no body every get to know this if they dont think low carb. Because we arent encouraged to. OF course the outcome is 'give in' because confidence crumbles as the person think their will power has crashed, and the self esteem dissolves. Changing the behaviour becomes at first a problem with addiction, and then changing metabolism. SO self discipline is not really the problem = because with correct counselling and proper support in correcting behaviour in relation to = behaviour modification, classical and operant conditioning, and with a valuable goal personalised to that person will maximise all hope - which of course is not something with zero confidence has. Vicious cycle. self discipline is merely a part of the problem
Greg Ingram addiction to food like substances is the biggest part of the problem imo.
Even eating high carb low fat, if the food is *real* and not processed crap, then those cycles of addiction/withdrawal don't happen. When people think they're eating "high carb", they're actually eating processed fat with processed carbs (i.e. doughnuts, cookies, chips, pizza, burgers etc). Those foods are *not* high carb.
Low fat or high fat, real food is what people need. We don't hear about people binging on real food, it's on the crap.
Something is wrong with the medical system when my best doctors are internet doctors.
LOLL this really shouldn't have made me laugh, but it's one of those truths that shouldn't be. I feel the same way.
I have a theory on why some try to discourage people from utilizing the powerful health inducing tool of fasting. Have you heard about those parasites that infect ants. they cause or control the brain function or nervous system of the ant causing it to do something against its natural will. It causes the ant to climb up to the top of the canopy of of trees in the amazon, to where it can then sprout and spread in the wind to other locations in the amazon. The side effect is it kills its ant host when it is no longer needed to do this. It fed off the host and used the ant host like riding a horse to get it where it wanted to go and then killed it and ate some of the hose while it then sailed off into the wind for further travel to find more hosts and further reproduce. I have read many reports of people seeing the dead remains of long stringy works coming out with stools after abotu 2 or 3 days of fasting. It is like they are dieing off. Perhasp they are attaching to the intestinal wall like barnacles on the hull of a ship? and fasting is taking away their food source? and perhaps, some of the persons are so downplaying of the benefits of fasting are in some way being controlled by parasites in their intestinal tract, causing their host to attack the message of the benefits of fasting they are experiencing, because if others receive this message it could eradicate these parasites from continuing to live in the hosts of humans?
nice theory brah
You'd really want this guy to be your doctor?? He's a nephrologist. Bite your tongue.
:) dr google. It's only a matter of time that things change now thanks to our group effort
I am Brazilian. Today I am 63 years old. But at the age of 44, I did 60 consecutive days of fasting, drinking only coconut water. I lost about 15 kg. But my energy level was incredible! During this experience, I was a very happy, free man, feeling very good, very sensitive to colors and sounds. I was a different man in a different world!
How did you deal with hunger pangs?
I am going to do a multi-day hiking fast; see how it turns out. I put on a few pounds of fat to prepare.
Coconut water is high sugar. You would have lost more drinking less sugar.
Coconut water is food. It engages all the digestive and ancillary organs in the intensive process known as digestion. The point of fasting is to relieve the body of that burden, while it is fed by body fat, so that it can work the miracles it is capable of when left alone.
I hope you are in good health now
I'm so tired of arguing with the "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" people...
It is the most important meal of the day. You can totally kill your day by having a trash ass breakfast!!!!!
I gained weight not eating breakfast, so everyone is different. I do fast between 5-5:30pm to 7am. I've maintained the 127lbs for 15 years.
The truth is not for everyone
I always retort, “explain to me the physiology of breakfast that makes it valuable that I miss out in by not eating it”
this is one of the biggest lies ever told. breakfast foods are delicious though so we all believed It lol
Abstinence is way easier than moderation
Justin Adil
Amen!
Very true! I've just started doing intermittent fasting and it's so much less difficult than doing any type of restrictive diet. I've never had the will power to eat fewer calories or not eating all the foods I like, but simply waiting a few hours before starting to eat is so much more doable. Yes, I'm still thinking about food (probably because I've just started) but it's not an omnipresent thought and it's not terrible and unmanageable. Love it!
Exactly! Once you start eating it stimulates appetite. Intermittent fasting helps you to have more control. You can drink water, green tea, etc while you wait to have your first meal of the day.
sitibear green tea will make most people super nauseous on an empty stomach!
It depends with which type of meal you started a prolongued fasting. It can be high carb or high fat and the only effect this two have on the fasting period is the genesis of leptin or ghrelin.
I watched this about 8 months ago, and it changed my life. I went from 200 pounds to 165 and have never felt better. I am more alert, I get more accomplished at work and I dont have the carb/sugar cravings anymore. I fast all day and I can eat the hamburger or whatever I want for dinner, no guilt! Never ever will I be that 200 pound slug again! Mind, Body and Soul!
please post your results so we can get a visual
Congrats, can you tell me if you ever drank more than water when you got hungry. Thats my main problem the will power and hungry always.... SHUCKS
Grats!
testy person
That's awesome, brother. I'm glad it's given you a new lease on life. I'm currently working on joining you.
Congrats man! Doctors are keeping people sick!
Started an extended fast while my country is having a huge Corona outbreak. Currently at 73 hours. Wish me and my country good luck 🙏🏻
Beginning a 3 day water fast from tomorrow mate, good luck !
How did it go?
Ed Se he didn’t respond cause he died from starvation
I think overextended fasting periods gives the exact opposite results ... You should ask and research ... I believe everything in life should be in moderation
@@DontWorryBouttaThing lol
I wish I would have known this before my daughter died from diabetes. Please keep spreading this info. The FDA here in US and pharma companies and fast food people I'm sure don't want us to know about this.
Honestly, they don't care that you know it. It's freely available to anyone looking. What they know is that most of us aren't going to do it.
I lost my mom only 2 years after being told she had diabetes, she was only 54, sorry for your loss
Sorry for your loss.
I'm so sorry 😔💔
Hugs, may her memory be a blessing.
My doctor recommended I watch Dr. Fung. I love my doctor.
Lonesome Crow your Dr sounds awesome
Your Doctor is a great Doctor lol.
My Consultant Gynae recommended Dr Fung!
sounds like your doctor is one of the very few who are actually trying to make people healthy
Lucky you. High 5 to your Dr 🎵
I lost 62 pounds in 5month on keto and intermittent fast. My doctor said keto is bad, so now I have three TH-cam doctors. Dr Erik burg. Dr fung. & Thomas dalauer
You should include Dr. Westman, Dr. Boz and Dr. Berry ☺
My doctor told me the same thing, and to have a "balanced diet including whole grains." I stopped going to him for health care when he aggressively pushed statins for cholesterol and SSRIs to manage my job-related nervousness. My new doctor was dumbfounded when I told him I lost 30 lb in 2 months doing daily 16-hour fasts.
@@Tubie1111 and Siim Land
De Burg seems to me like a fraud
Ha ha same. But also Ken Berry, Dr. Boz and Dr. Berg.
The biggest health mistake in my life was eating 2 bowls of sugar for breakfast for decades - in the form of Cheerios, Corn Flakes etc. I was skinny-fat and had no idea why I had a big belly while my body was slim...
Now at the age of 33 I do 16:8 IF and skip breakfasts, and my stomach has never been flatter and tighter 🙂
And one thing is for sure, I will NEVER feed my kids breakfast cereal.
How long it took you to reverse the tummy? Have been fighting same thing...
@@StatchanaReborn I've been daily fasting for 16-20hours for years. I even had calorie restriction(like 1600kcal) for 6 months with If and prolonged fasts for few days and this shitty belly fat it's still with me. I dropped my weight from 85kg to 68kg having 186cm and still that fat on me... Riding a bicycle vigorously like 70km with average 30km/h few times a week, calisthenics, walking every night, avoiding sweets and fast foods and nothing helps.
"for decades"
"at age 33"
ok
@@donmcdouglas5017 If he started eating 2 bowls of cereal a day at age 3 and continued for 3 decades, that would put him at age 33. He could have eaten cereal for 2 decades and stopped at age 23 ten years ago.
Nicely done sonny. Keep it up. I haven't had sugar in my tea for 4 years now. Nor soft drinks. Never looked back. Refined fructose is the worst. I also was skinny fat before due to high sugar diet
I had done every diet and couldn't lose a pound. Even my doctor couldn't figure it out. I started intermittent fasting, mixed with fasting for 1-3 days when I could. I stayed low carb and suddenly I was dropping weight like crazy. I'm 47 and lost 20 lbs in a month. My body is working for the first time in so long and I'm so grateful. Dr. Fung has literally changed my life! Additionally, I'd like to mention that you'll feel better than you ever have!
Just wanted to say thank you, Dr. Fung. Fell upon this video June 7 of 2018. it was very convincing. Since then I have lost 50 lbs. Reversed high BP and non-alchohol, fatty liver. Also and am far less insulin resistant. Only down side is what I saved in food, I spent in clothes.
I hear that. I now have a belt that has more holes than Swiss cheese!
@Trent Walker, can you share what you did? or didn't do?
Trent Walker im starting today, my blood pressure is control by a lot of medicine. I thought after gastric bypass the problem would be gone, I'm on more medicine.. Thank God for TH-cam👈
thank you, i just got told i have fatty liver and its nice to know you can reverse it.
There's always a tradeoff lol. But keep doing what your doing and stay healthy 😉
As a practicing physician and having a background in research of exercise and caloric/nutrition in breast cancer this makes TOTAL sense! I have had the mainstream faulty knowledge pounded into my head in my training, and not to mention very little nutrition education in medical school. It is only my personal study and research background that gives me the framework to see the logic in this. Thank you for putting such useful information out there!!
Thank goodness! a health professional whose broken ranks and is giving people the right information.You are such a rare breed in many countries!I salute you,most Doctors appear to have been gagged or are reluctant for reason?Industry and political pressure maybe?

Please spread the word to all your colleagues, Dr. Snedden. I find the lack of knowledge out there in the medical community to be absolutely frightening.
+Jan Levine Thx! I'll give it a look!!!
i feel most professionally trained people in US are pigeon holed into very specialized fields, very few people see the big picture, thus not many practitioners take Holistic approach towards the human body.
Whatever you do, if you decide to fast (and you should), always refer to videos like this to maintain inspiration, knowledge and confidence.
I have fasted my entire life I never ate breakfast even as a kid my body couldn’t take it when ate breakfast I would feel like crap. My parents never pushed food on me and only fed me when I was hungry. We also never had scheduled meals, which seems like it would be wrong, but it was great you learn to listen to your body. Anyways, I am now 30 and don’t look a day over 20, no joke people are always asking what I am doing and I always fasting! I see my friends the same age who have gained weight; their skin looks like they are 40 yrs old. I still have the same body I did in high school. I do work out but not regularly maybe 1-2 times a week sometimes 3-4 times I run a mile and do the leg press machine for 15 mins, or I walk my dogs 5 times a week and that’s it. I eat once sometimes twice a day. On occasion, I will do a 24 - 30 hr fast. Anyway, it’s the best thing you can for yourself; it’s a lifestyle, not a diet or anything like that. Remember, if you lived in the wild, you would not be eating every day your body is made to endure stress. I hope this helps.
What do you eat in your 1 meal a day?
Yeah. Do please share what you do. You are one of few who can provide long term evidence that this thing ain’t a fad. Hope to hear from you😃
@@Bokgat Search Dr Eric Berg on youtube. He has tons of videos about fasting, low carb and keto.
I myself are doing intermitten fasting.
16/8, 8 hour eatingwindow 11am to 7pm, then fast for 16 hours.
after 4 months iv lost 15 kilos, and im gonna lose 15 more, then i will be slim/normal weight.
I eat low carb, and i dont have a problem with hunger. Thats one of the benefits of low carb.
And still, i cheat a little during weekends. I eat a little chips (100-200 grams)and chocolate (100 grams), and sugarfree coca cola..
You can actually drink what you want, when you want, as long as it dont contain cal/carb, or triggers your sweet cravings.
Hope it will help you find what you are looking for. : )
@@Bokgat It's really not that complicated. Just reduce your eating windows, cut out heavily processed low quality foods, drink lots of water, exercise if possible and do a 24-48h fast every once in a while. I lost 40 lbs in 2 months doing long water fasts (2 × 20 days) although I wouldn't recommend this to anyone unless you know you can handle it (diabetics, elderly, those with gout...etc., shouldn't water fast without medical supervision/advice).
same have never liked breakfast. I ate it when I was a very younger child. not sure exactly when I stopped but probs when I was around 11 and was no longer told by my mum that I had to eat it. Breakfast has made me feel sick for as long as I can remember. it also makes me get hungrier much faster after eating it, and often makes me slow/lazy/tired on top of feeling sick.
I hate the feeling of constantly feeling full its actually so tiring and it sucks, normally I eat dinner but not at a certain time just when imhungry, and will eat something in the day if Im super hungry but usually never before like 3pm.
Coming home to live at home during quarantine and stuff, I have began eating so much more. my family eats dinner at basically the same time and has the most enormous portions ever. I am constantly full being at home and always feel sick. but when I say don't cook so much and then we won't eat so much they say ok but keep doing it. (I can't cook otherwise I would try also).
Still don't eat breakfast and limit what I eat in the day so at least its not tooo much, but same as you my brother and I are the only ones who aren't overweight and we both don't live at home. even with this though I gained at least 3-4kg's coming home after only 2 months...
Dr Fung is such a realist. No bullshit with special interests to sell you on some crap. Tells it how it is and changes lives
P Mo the thing is he himself also does the fasting. So he speaks from his research and experience.
Nikola Tesla You can buy his book or CD....all knowledge has a price.
No special interest. His book is great, and all the info has been shared essentially for free. If You watch his YT videos or his blog, he's shared it all to anyone is interested for free.
I bought his book, 'The Diabetes Code' two weeks ago and started fasting 17 hours a day (I eat from 10am to 5pm). My blood sugar has dropped 20 to 30 points both before and after meals!
that's great keep it up
I tried before and gave up. Today I’m starting again. I weigh 223, the biggest I’ve ever been. My goal is to lose 50lbs by April 1st. Aggressive but here goes nothing. Wish me consistency and good luck :)
You got this!
Fasting combined with the keto diet will work wonders. The 1st 2 weeks are the hardest. You know you can do anything for a couple of weeks. Right? Ease into fasting. It is much easier if you restrict your carb intake. Carbs do not keep you full. I would recommend you get labs done before you begin, so you can track the improvements in your health. You should also take the most unflattering photo of yourself as a before picture. I lost 22 lbs in the 1st month with the keto diet, (at 66 years old.) but I began at 340 lbs. Yes, most of it was water weight, but it was still weight. Dr. Fung's "The Obesity Code," saved my life. I added fasting after a month or two on the keto diet. You may want to check out Dr. Berry on TH-cam. Good luck, stick with it, and take your life and health back.
Look up snake juice channel. Cole
IAM with you IAM now 3 days in and already start to feel good about myself not so hungry much anymore too👊👍
Good luck! I too am starting on intermittent fasting and keto (since January 8th 2020) I’m not putting any weigth goals, trying to lower my blood sugar.. success to all of us ❤️❤️❤️
I'm watching this in 2020 and I am going to be fasting to save my life!
How's your progress?
How is it going a year later?
u alive?
Started IF two month ago. Lost 18lbs already and feeling great. No more sugar craving, binging, uncontrolled hunger, i still eat the food that i love. I am so happy. Thank you so much Dr.
The only people hating on fasting are the ones who never tried it. Thank you Dr. Jung!
Fasting terrifies people who live off carbs. They are convinced they have to eat every 2 hours.
I do fasting too. No food after 8pm and first meal at 12pm the next day.
From 3 months I am on IF, 18hrs of fasting. And twice a month I fast for 41hrs straight. Lost 18kg which I could not do with restricted calorie diet. Body fat reduced to 16% from 25% and visceral fat reduced to 5 from 11. Switching to keatosis improved my body response to food and my energy levels improved. My mood improved, I don't feel low anymore, this is my personal experience 👍.
8 days into it, 19 hours daily fast, 5 hour eating window, 2 meals a day, no snacking. Easy when I stopped eating yoghurt +fruit +cereal for breakfast. Dropped potatoes, rice etc, bake own pumpkin and walnut gluten free bread, but the worst offender was diet coke... Stopped this, much less hunger. Now on more protein and fats, piles of veg and salad. Power walking 10/day before breakfast and no hunger and I'm 74.
This guy should get a Nobel prize！

Pretty Prudent I think he has done one or two.
hes got loads?
He needs to stop asking the audience if he is "right" before he does that.
78 lbs lost in ten months. Kick ass. Down to like 243 lbs from 321 lbs.
What type of fasting are you doing? Still having success? 😊
what type of fasting? did you loose more weight?
Sounds like you used the Keto diet with intermediate fasting. I am working in it too
Hey Max, just wondering. Where are you at today? Have you reached your goals?
I owe Dr. Fung sooo much for giving me permission to fast, something I’d always been taught was the worst possible thing you could do for your health. So far, it’s looking like the BEST thing I could do. Having fasting in my life has made me more ALIVE, more MINDFUL, much more HOPEFUL!
Dr. Fung has changed my life. Listen to this man, he is giving us gold
For people who are addicted to food, fasting is the best medicine! You just remove the drug and boom you're done!
It's sure working for me! I fast at least 17-18 hrs a day, usually a 20-24 once a week. Suddenly, I'm not spending all my money on food...my food stamps last all month($130)!
I'm thinking the same thing I've been clean a long time and food is like a drug when I try to stop I go through withdrawals BOOM I cant beat myself up just move forward
Yeah
so maybe food addiction harm people more then drug abuse.
callmecristal I agree, as I am addicted to food and eating. IF helps control binge eating. I am doing WeightWatchers to help control how much I eat, when I eat.
yes, I used to eat a lot of snack food(at work, playing video game, watching youtube)
I started 16:8 intermittent fasting last week, it helps me build self discipline stop eating snack food
snack food was still appetizing at the beginning
Dr. Fung You have single-handedly changed my life, I have lost just south of 100 pounds and have kept it off successfully for almost 5 years.
Good for you. Don!
This was made in 2016?! I'm barely learning all this in 2019! Im 49 been very heavy for last 30 years but I've lost 41lbs to date, I wait to eat later in the day, do a little walk at home video I really haven't done much. I never loosed weight at the gym I just lost money. I haven't been 185 since the 90's! And im not all freaked out about food anymore which is so nice.. when I realized I wasn't going crazy for a doughnut I stopped myself and said., so this is what is like to not be hungry...i stil have 40 more pounds to go!
Well done. Great 👌
As a physician I find this amazingly accurate.
What is the minimal amount of hours to fast to achieve fat burning?
Rocky Mendoza -I’ve lost about 5 pounds just not eating anything until noon. If I stop eating by 8pm the night before,that’s an easy 16 hr fast. It’s staying off, which is encouraging me to keep going. I think whatever people can work up to is good!
Some effective ones can eat 2x a day even. You just need to make sure they are spaced in time as far as possible in your daily routine.
@@racquel012070 No water or food all day until a set time, for me it's 6 oclock PM, when I eat dinner. I try and limit my dinner to around 500 calories or less with zero carbs. During this meal, drink water. Make sure your food has plenty of salt in it and that you drink plenty of water. Water and salt are necessary for the health of the heart, liver, and kidneys. Salt regulates blood fluids and prevents low blood pressure. After this meal, stop eating and drinking until the next day around the same time. Do this forever, or at least until you've reached your ideal weight, it's super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Physicians practice something else. They dont want to insult Nutritional Scientists so they just goes along giving wrong treatment and advice.
Jason Fung and Eric Berg....the best doctors ever!
Discovered Jason's video on fasting today...he's brilliant!
I've learnt so much from Eric Berg over the years...
@Serge Rivest well that con has helped me lose enough weight to feel a lot better
@@julieholland9639 I can also recommend the channel from Dr. Sten Ekberg, he is an fromer olympic decathlete and chiropractor, his knowledge is incredeble. Not only with fasting and low carb / keto... but with holistic health, brain health as well!
@Serge Rivest Interesting, and why?
So true!
Dr. Jason Fung, Where were you all this time? You have explained in simple terms in 30 minutes which all the medical professionals did not do for me in 30 years. Brilliant! Thank you.
If only more people take is advice, I can say I followed his advice and I can say am a healthier person today, a BIG THANK YOU DR FUNG
Hmmm... Let's see: No shopping + No driving to the store to shop + No buying food + No use of power to cook it + Fewer clothing purchases to accomodate ever higher body weight + Lower health care expenses = NO PROFIT
punch in tha face on consumerism
I wish my gastroenterologist would be open to this information. I am amazed at how little gastroenterologists' know about nutrition!! He wonders why I won't attend a 'dietician' who offers 1200 calorie/low fat diet!! We need more Dr Fung's in the world! Thank you
+Judy Williams maybe you need a different doctor. If it's not possible, then you could buy Dr. Fung's book, and go off on your own. Drs. are like everybody else - like teachers, or taxi drivers, in that there are good ones and bad ones. We can't give our responsibility for our health over to them in situations where we're going against our own instincts. Maybe you could lend your copy of Fung's book to your doctor. In any event, good luck.
+Judy Williams Time to change your gastroenterologist...who knows what else is wrong with his "scientific knowledge" ? Does he tell you to avoid egg yolks too?
Jorge Luis Garcia climate change comes to mind
My experience is that most people are highly resistant to new information. I know two personal trainers--and they both reject fasting out of hand. One of them said, "I don't want to learn anything new. I can't tell my clients not to eat."
Both of them are still lugging around the six Tupperware containers every day!
my trainer completely shunned this approach. She basically accused me of having no discipline, not working hard enough and practically making me feel stupid for not believing the calorie in vs calorie out method. After trying it many times, and still not getting amazing results with calories in vs out, you do start to wonder if theres something not quite working.
I’m the only over weight person in my family . My mother is probably 120 soaking wet but when we have family dinners her plate is LOADED ! I’ve made the comment to her how can she be so skinny and eat so much and she has always said well this is all I eat ... one meal a day . She was fasting and didn’t even know she was fasting ! Years later .... I finally get it and now I’m a few weeks into my new lifestyle and my weight is slowest coming off ( I’ve had a couple days of mishaps) this is my new lifestyle and I’m so happy for all your educational videos Dr Fung! I’m 17 hrs a day fasting but today I’m working twds OMAD 👏🏼🥳🌸
I'm from New Zealand and have heard this Dr's videos couple of times. And finally decided to try intermittently fasting for 6weeks as I was due for my surgery. Guess what! My HbA1c level dropped down from 71 to 27.. :) I'm so so so thankful for your advice.
Sandra would love to hear from you on how you did it am in NZ as well.Thanks.
What is that?
@@nonyabizness2550 hba1 is your blood sugar count
Note that NZ uses a different scale for HbA1c than in USA. USA uses a percentage scale based on mg/dl instead of mmol/mol. He went from just below 9 to just below 5. Quite the feat!
How did u get on
I started this last January 7, 2019 at 184 pounds and last May 28, 2019 I am at 153 pounds. Thank you Dr. Fung:)

That's awesome, brother. Great job.
In 5 months that's great
ThT is awesome !! And that is also my birthday
What type of fast did you follow (TRE 16:8, TRE 18:6; full-day; other)? Still following? Congrats on the success.
thank you Doctor. I was diabetic but I reverse it with fasting. I stopped my medication without imforming my doctor when I told him that I stop he went crazy here I am feeling great with no metformin. I feel so healthy. now I am doing 10 days water fasting no supervision. I am in Africa the Gambia. I am feeling great. thank you .
mamie berth hi I have diabetes n want to reverse so how can I go off my meds?
Hello, congratulations first of all. I have a question for you. What happened when you felt shaky like you were going to black out? Im so scared. If i don't eat every 2 hours. Anyone on youtube, who has done this.... Can you please answer us?
This would only work on diabetes type 2 really. Since type 1 insulin is not produced at all. And even diabetes type 2 that has gone too far cannot be reversed.

Are you very skinny by any chance? If so, like the doc said, might not be the best idea to fast.
Or do you eat lots of carbs/sugar and it's a kid of withdrawal.
Your body reacts to switching from burning sugar to burning fat.
I had started fasting just after the first time I saw this video one year ago. The summer before I started, I was tested either above or below than the standard for my body values. When I did the testing again after six months of fasting and losing the excess weight I had, none of my values were high or low anymore. Also, as a person who was always procrastinating, along with fasting I quitely became a better person and got my life in order with an increase on my focus for other tasks. This video has changed my life and made me adopt a good lifestyle along with fasting.
However, I've quitted fasting and gained some weight in the last three or four months due to my complicated lifestyle. Now I feel bad and I've decided to come to this video and get inspired again. I'll make it and have no fears as I saw that this works very well. Good luck everyone!
I’m on the second day of my first ever fast! (Starting rolling 48s) wish me luck guys
Please update
Would love to know how you’re doing now
I lost over 30 pounds in about 4 or 5 months. This guy is brilliant....finally a truth teller.
ngoma how’s it now?
I would add that when your body is not busy digesting it can invest itself in repair and work on other functions
I agree
Yup! Autophagy will help us live longer (fasting 16+ hours or more). As we get older this is the main/healthiest way we could live and prolong our lives and look amazing!
Yes. I'm pretty sure that fasting was what contributed to a problematic knee healing itself a few years ago. A post this same comment in other video a while ago and some lady confirmed that this happened to her knee as well. So there seems to be a curing mechanism in fasting. And on a more embarassing note, don't tell anyone about the huge boners you get while not eating. Shhhhh xDDDDDDDD
Makes sense to me
When people eat raw, human appropriate food (meat) there is zero need for fasting as the digestive and repairing processes occur simultaneously if eating fully digestible, non toxic food.
During my fasting days, i watch your videos about fasting that gives me extra motivation. Just finished my 36 hours water fasting.Feeling good.
good job
Coco Chanel had said once to her friends in the middle of a discussion about food and menu: "Oh, dear, it's far more important how not to eat"
All my life i encounter doctors that are wrong about this... i just cant understand why. I feel really cheated, this info could made my youth so much better...
Thousands of years ago it was written in holy scripture (old testament), " if thou be a man given to appetite, put a knife to thy throat." In other words, stop yourself from eating!
AMA FDA DEA have zero interest in "protecting the public". They function to serve and protect the profit of corporatized medical food and pharma industries. Gawd bless amurka
Very sad for everyone that lost their loved ones to Diabetes 2.
RIP, Dad. Killed by insulin-pushing doctors 11 years ago. If only we had known the truth, you would still be alive today.
My dad has late onset diabetes and his doctors wont tell him to go keto. I lost 70 lbs on keto, now have low BP etc. My dads drs are killing him. All of his ailments are diet related.
I hear you. My Dad died due to a fatty liver and diabetes a couple of years ago. The medical establishment is a fraud that's killing people every day.
sue yr doctor for first degree murder
I sent my 72 year old overweight type 2 diabetic mom a Jason Fung video to watch. Maybe she’ll get an idea she could heal her diabetes and her relationship with food
@@BeautifulGood713 I pray she'll listen!!! My Mom is diabetic on Insulin she is like a horse you can lead to water but cannot make drink. I pray your Mom is different.
I'm so sorry to all on this thread have lost family members! Determined to learn to keep myself and husband healthy. Love, peace and comfort to all!
I love doctors who take a staggeringly complex medical topic and simplify it enough for the average person to understand. Dr. Jason Fung and Dr. Annette Bozworth are both great at this. This is a great explanation of fasting.
This explains how I was able to lose so much weight a few years back. My eating window was only 4 hours long. From 2-6 pm. I lost over 100 lbs in about a year and a half.
I guess it will be 2times right? In that window of 4 hours
Good for you! Did you stop?
LOVE that Dr. Fung calls out medical professionals for victim blaming when their medical advice doesn't work...I see this very often as a social worker in a hospital and it's very disheartening
Jamie Rivet - Don’t be an idiot, Jamie.
Ggh
I eat and drink once every 23 hours. I get a good night's sleep and my skin is soft and glowing.
I go to the gym most days twice a day. No food craving anymore.
Best move I've ever made.
Can you tell me what you eat every 23 hours?
Dr Fung fell in my lap the day after I half heard a Dr Oz show on Intermittent Fasting. I paid attention to Dr Fung. Today was my 2 week weigh in. Down 5.4 lbs. The amazing part is it has been so easy. Granted it is August 2020, the year of Corona. So socializing and the eating and drinking that usually go along with good friends has been greatly diminished. However, I have put 20 lbs on since the pandemic (with 0 socializing).Having first get together this weekend. Keeping fingers crossed it doesn’t throw me off course in this journey. Less than 15lbs to go and counting.
PS I’m 71 and feel wonderful. A great incentive. Thank you Universe for putting Dr Fung in my path.
Where has this guy been all my life?!!! I am on day 6 of intermittent fasting 18-6/20-4/14-10/20-4/20-4/21-3
And I feel great I have no cravings, sleeping better lost 5 lbs. no headaches since day 3. I can really do this!
Noreen Fernandez what’s happened with your quest in the past year?
Update your results
The best presenter on this topic in the world.
This man has changed my life! Best lecture ever! Watched it several times and might watch it again in the near future. Man, he's right, been fasting for a few weeks now, one light plant based meal a day, I am mentally more positive and sharp. Someone should have explained this to us many decades ago. I was raised in religion with fasting, no wonder my family had no weight problems or depressions.
I love this Doctor, and his sense of humor. I really enjoyed this video so much.
Me too I was thinking the same thing
Began following Dr, Fung's and Dr Andreas' advice. Lost 32 pounds in 8 weeks. Started eating carbs again. Two months later hadn't lost any more weight, but didn't gain any either. That has never happened before when I stopped a diet. I always gained what was lost back plus more. Don't know if Dr. Fung's advice works for everyone, but it sure worked for me.
Regina Richards great news..now did you increase your moving after went back to CARBS? Did you go back to GOOD carb that help you burn fat
That's awesome! I've been trying to find something about this because I am vegan and I can't possible eat low-carb for life! Can you give more insight on what you did?
Regina Richards don't quit fasting, don't forget what initially got you in trouble.
when you become fat adapted, it is easy to eat carbs and then fast... the main key here is Fasting...Ketogenic diet supports you in your fasting because it stops you from craving for food... when your body becomes adapted to fasting, you can start eating carbs and fast with no problem at all...
Regina Richards when you were fasting did you at least drink water? Did you eat anything at all?
it is not making money for anyone, there is no cost, no spending involves in fasting, there is no industry.. that's why
Well, the money you would spare by buying less food, going less to the doctor and not buying pills would be spent elsewhere. The balance of economy would be preserved.
As entrepreneurs like to say there's no way to monetize it.
Amazing! Even a 3 years old can understand this great teacher. Thanks for all Your work!
Nice to see a doctor who cares!
“Right?” 😂
I so appreciate you teaching us Dr. Fung! You’ve changed my life, my kids’ lives, my friends’ lives. I had doctors giving me all kinds of contradictory advice for YEARS. I hired personal trainers who led me to believe I was going to need to eat six meals a day that were pre-prepped well in advance and drink expensive protein shakes and buy expensive protein bars and avoid whole food groups for most of my life.
As seems to be with many things in life, it’s the taking away and the denying of yourself, not heaping on junk and distraction, which brings real freedom!
First time I fasted was an accident, many years ago. Was traveling Paris and could not afford both food AND travel. I realized it was really easy... but I thought it was easy because Paris was so beautiful! Soon after, I found out it's always easy as long as there's nobody around to constantly doomsday/guilt/nag at you. Soon after that, I began reading up on the science behind why it's so easy.
Now I just resort to telling people that "I have a very slow metabolism, so I can go longer without food + I'm small." It's bull, but at least it gets people to stop yapping their uninformed nonsense at me.
Hope this information gets reasonably mainstream soon! Thank you for the presentation!
For some reason, this whole comment, especially your understandable hatred of plebs who "doomsday/guilt/nag" at you - mixed with your whole consumption of Paris instead of food thing - seem to me to come straight from a Chuck Palhaniuk novel, and I love it.
I love this
Iris im laughing because in my experience its always the people with health problems who become "expert nutritionists" when they find out. 😂🤣the irony.
I found Dr. Fung yesterday, my brain compelled me to wake up at 5am and share Dr. Fung's message!!!❤❤❤❤
Started my 5-day fast today. Haven't done this before. The longest streak was a 72-hour fast and I was drained and weak at the end of it. Will update my daily progress for those who care ;) Peace, out. ✌👍
Current Weight: 78Kgs.
Update: End of 5-day fast and I weigh 75Kgs. 👍
3 Kgs in 5 days-AWESOME !! Keep up the great work!! Blessings 🤗!
Ps I care 🤚😀!!!
So you didn’t eat anything for 5 days straight? Or am I confused on how fasting works?
QfromDetroit Blessings 😃!! See Dr Fung and Dr Berg fasting experts for profesional information. I hope this helps you 🤗!!
@@QfromDetroit Have a look here to get you started, dr Berg is top guy too.

For years I've been fasting, during my menstruation, to help with the uncomfortable symptoms like nausea (vomiting) and cramping. I will fast for 1 or 2 days depending on how I feel. My body goes through a cleanse during that time, and fasting supports me physically and mentally. I'm thankful I can put a name to what I do. My friend, who supports people with their nutrition, told me that my fasting during menstruation is not healthy and shows my body is imbalanced. However, I don't agree with her because I'm okay with being in tune with what my body needs, and fasting supports my body during mentruation in a positive way.
Take ibuprofen the first 36 hours of period so you won’t vomit. You have low progesterone if your vomiting…I fast during my period from time to time
Thank you Dr Jason Fung. Fasting helped me and many of my patients to succeed diabetes.
where r u located in india?
Where's the LOVE button?
Most men can't find it either 🙃
right on
@@metabolic_jam LOLLLL
Dr Jason Fung is such an amazing man.I have watched almost all his TH-cam videos and even bought one of his books.He definitely has a way to explain things that we can all understand and really truly is a man that wants to help us all in as far as are health is concerned.
I lost 35 lbs in 6 months doing IF and Keto. Dropped my A1C from 7.3 to 5.6 in 3 months. Dr. Fung saved my life. I’m forever grateful.
this plus low carb saved my life lost 140 pounds and going for more. Now I added carbs back strategically to build muscle in a fasting window, while doing low carb to shred that last 10 pounds. I now am in control of my weight and looking and feeling great.
PancakesOFDoom how and when do you strategically add carb for muscle?
@@deb.b.b on the training days I add a bit between 10 - 20 g of carbs for the intensity in the gym and eat a ton to be anabolic. on the resting days I go full zero carb on a slight caloric restriction to cut the remaining fat.
10:00 breakdown of hormonal changes resulting from eating
16:57 Explanation of why muscle isn't lost during fasting
I've watched many talks on health on this channel. I find Dr Jason Fung the most enjoyable. Because of him I'm on my way to healing diabetes. His wisdom on calories in calories out myth has been the best in breaking free of "diet mentality". His books are currently on the best seller list on Amazon and worth every penny.
This may be the greatest health advice lecture on TH-cam. And it's free and simple to follow. Thank you for this.
Jahangir Alam both. Any pick one stick to it.. and build up to 12> 14,16> 24 hour fast
His book “the obesity code” is great! Highly recommend getting a copy. Fasting and a low carb life style helped me drop 95 lbs, 40 more to go 💪🏽
I dropperkd from 270 to 200 in 9 months on keto & some IF. I am 76 yrs. old and my blood work is best I have ever had which is nearly perfect. I plan on getting down to 180 and I have never been hungry for the last year. THANK YOU KETO
You are an inspiration, Thank YOU!
Any tips you wanna share? Or unexpected hardships you had to overcome?
@@jimbrown4041 Just make sure you eat plenty of fat. I did not eat enough fat and burned up too much muscle. Keep your fat intake at keast 50% keep carbs 50 grams or less and not too heavy with the protien. I myself now eat at least 60& protien.
Hands Down best explanation I’ve ever heard on Fasting !! ✋🏼
This video is truly astounding. It’s like a light bulb has gone off in my head. It’s a life changing piece of advice yet it’s so simple and obvious.
Thanks so much Dr Fung. Your explanation is extremely detailed and logical. Forever grateful. Lost 78 pounds and feeling better than ever with keto diet and 20:4 fasting. Be well😄🙏🏽
The image of the woman with outstretched arms, chains broken, freedom...........that is my experience of fasting! Complete liberation!
OK Baumgaertner sounds spiritual
This is a great summary of Dr Fung's book. I recommend the book and the six lectures (starting with the first video, "Dr Jason Fung, The Obesity Code, why we gain weight, part 1") to people but first I'll send them here for the overview.
What most admire about Dr. Fung is that with a good base of scientific knowledge, he has the guts to go against the establishment, particularly when he talks about Diabetes Type II
OMAD is a life saver.
From one physician to another, Dr. Jason Fung knows what he's talking about, (even though he cheated off of me during medical school examinations...joking of course). I've not changed anything about what I eat, simply when I eat. Started intermittent fasting 6 days per week on a 18hr fast / 6hr fed window and have lost 70lbs in 4months. Now my wife thinks I look too much like a ripped body builder. The food and pharm industries don't want us doing this because there's no money for them in it. It works with a bit of discipline and self restraint, the 6hr eating window removes nearly all snacks from your life. It works great and costs absolutely nothing...yup even doctors like to save money and time!
70 lbs in 4 months is quite extreme. Did you get any loose skin from losing the weight so fast? what is your feeding hours if you don't mind me asking. Congrats on your weight loss.
@@diana_prince_1 if you listen to some other TH-cam clips of Jason's he explains why you don't get loose skin fasting. Also you can look up Dr Ken Berry about loose skin.
@@diana_prince_1 Google autophagy. During autophagy the body reduces the loose skin on its own. Very interesting.
@@AnnabellaRedwood Dr Ken Berry caught my attention and now TH-cam has presented this video to me - brilliant!
@@paulcaffery599 Dr Ken is one of the best! 😀
I really like your lectures, yesterday I fasted 24 hours and I felt less stressful because I don't have to think ahead what to eat for 2 meals! and of course I only have to prepare 1 meal per day! My life is simpler!! thank you Dr Fung.
In 2 months on Keto my prediabetes A1C went down to 5.6 and every item on my lab work that was high before has dropped significantly or is now down to normal...in TWO months. I eat at about 11 a.m. amd 5 p.m. every day, intermittent fasting for 18 hours each day by cutting carbs, sugar and seed oils. At 65 I feel great, don't count calories, sleep much better and never feel the need to take a nap anymore. The pounds rolling off is a great bonus. It's not about counting calories, it's about the type of food you put in your body that keeps it running like a well oiled machine.
This is genius in two ways reminded me I need to defrost my real freezer too.
If you fast you can eat better quality food when you DO eat.
Good point.
You must.
Col Pro so true. I am never being fat in my life..! I still weight the same in the last 50 yrs. ( only gained with my pregnancy with four children) I eat good meal. No btw meal. ( when you eat good meal don’t feel the need for junk food ) and it’s becoming who’s and what you are. I,ve heard PP said. YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. Do you agree..? I am not trying to ( be an a hole ) bragged for being skinny. The point is when you eat good meals. You are good to go each day. And exercise is a must ( for me anyway ) now I,m old and still doing the same thing that I,ve been doing. Good luck to you what ever you wishes for. Be well. I,m admired you big time...!
haha so true, EVERYTHING sounds delicious when you're ready to end the fast
You could also eat worse and be alright.
This man has changed my relationship with food, I still have bad days with food but I have lost 3 stone, I couldn't understand why I could never keep weight off, so a big thank you to Dr Fung 💖
I found you in 2021 when my mother got injury cause by diabetes, thank you doctor for sharing this great news to us . May God bless you Dr!
Hey Dr Fung,
Not only did your lecture on IF make total sense but was delivered in a unique & funny way...😝 thank you very kindly 😘 God Bless You x
Stop eating Breakfast or BREAKingFAST! Don't BREAK your fast and eat a late lunch. The more hours of continuous fasting the healthier you become.
Or you can eat breakfest and early lunch and do a 20hour fast. Thats also another way. Carbs in the morning and practically no carbs for lunch. Its what I do. Carbs in the morning to give ur muscles and body that fresh fuel for the day, then no carbs in lunch for that massive intake of protein and some fats. Plus I go to the gym daily.
You're the best. Thank you.
DeLa Sol i
especially if you have a problem with insulin resistance and overeating. morning Fasting cures them both!
OMAD everyday for me!!
Because of dr fung. I started 16/8 fasting. In 3 mo lost 29lbs aic from 7 to 5.8, trigrides cut in half
This is the most relevant presentation in relation to weight. Extremely clear and helpful information. Thank you Dr. Fung
