Can you please do a video on high protein diets? I'm considering eating 150+ grams of protein on my 16/8 IF days in order to curb hunger and not binge and regain fat from my 72hr fasts. But I've heard protein creates an insulin response, is that something I should be worried about?

Could you possibly do an analysis on the Phoenix Protocol ( August Dunning ) specifically Chapter 3 on water fasting. According to this book an extended water fast beyond a couple of days will result in heart muscle loss ! This sounds counter intuitive , how would we have survived in Hunter gatherer days if by drinking water while on a hunt ( and therefore not eating food ) the heart was destroyed. The medical information in Chapter 3 looks like it is well referenced to medical reports so not easily dismissed. Would appreciate an MD analysis thx

I started fasting just under a year ago. I primarily do ADF and go 36 hours before I eat for roughly 6-12 hours. I was 307 lbs when I started fasting and walking and I’m now between 195-205 depending on the day. I’ve started adding kettlebell workouts 3-4 days a week and I’ve seen a huge increase in my lean mass. Dr. Fung is the main reason I started fasting. Thank you.

Thanks for posting this. It's important to note that Terry Crews has said he does 16:8 and works out in the morning. He then continues fasting after his workout until 2pm. This means that his body is still pumping out HGH while his muscles are recovering. I'd be interested in hearing more about the studies behind this.

The first few days after the fast, I felt weak, of course, but within a week, I was right back at the same weights I was lifting and still about 7 pounds less bodyweight.

How perfect! I’m starting ADF with weight training. A beautiful friend who’s been weight lifting for years says that fasting and lifting don’t really go together, that lifting requires eating throughout every day to stay fueled and feed muscle growth. But I knew I could make it work, get all the benefits of fasting AND lose weight and build muscle. As long as I keep my feeding days high-protein and nutritionally dense. Appreciating this video and the comments.

@SuperMrAndersen 8 ай бұрын

This doctor I think was talking about NOT loosing muscle, not about gaining muscle. We have fuel in our body for about 1 day as glycogen. But when fasting where we get protein which we need all the time for blood for example?! I think we need to eat protein every day for just not to lose muscle.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 01:10 🏋️‍♂️ *Muscle growth or shrinkage depends on stress applied, not solely on diet. Adequate nutrition prevents using muscle for fuel unless body fat percentage is extremely low.* 02:20 📊 *Alternate daily fasting did not decrease lean mass (including muscle); in fact, it potentially increased it, compared to fat loss.* 03:42 🔄 *Fasting strategies were more effective at preserving lean mass (muscle) compared to chronic calorie restriction, with a 4x better result in lean mass preservation.* 04:09 ⚖️ *Growth hormone plays a crucial role in lean tissue maintenance. Fasting increases growth hormone, preserving lean muscle while promoting fat loss, without causing side effects like injected growth hormone.* 06:29 🍲 *Fasting utilizes glucose and fat stores for energy, not protein. Body doesn't use muscle for fuel if other energy sources are available.* 07:09 🕒 *Terry Crews practices a 16-hour daily fast, followed by an 8-hour eating window. Exercising in a fasted state can increase training intensity and recovery due to hormonal changes.* 08:04 🌟 *Training in a fasted state, as done by Terry Crews and other celebrities, offers benefits such as heightened training ability, faster recovery, and anti-aging benefits without significant side effects.*

This video was great as well. I just started fasting few weeks ago so far the results seem to be well and I am not that hungry as I thought I would be. I am honestly use to it. I fast my first 8 hours after waking up and only eat within the 8 hours. I only do it 4 days out of the week though. On days I work. But on my off days I am still eating clean nothing too crazy. Already notice my abs showing up more now so lets see how it looks in few weeks. No signs of muscle loss yet so thats good. I will do an update video in the future on my channel. Love your videos so far Doctor thanks for them.

I'm about to turn 34 and had done intermittent fasting maybe around 15 years ago... I liked it then but never knew HOW it worked or WHY. After a 7 year hiatus from fitness and I.F, I started the gym again but this time with more research and knowledge and a plan. I've been at the gym for about 1.5 years now starting with training 2 - 3 times a week for a year and only recently 6 days a week. I have always wondered why and how I could be building muscle even though I'm not having food or protein in my anabolic window after training and now I know why. I'm almost at the best shape I've ever been in my life. I'm close to a body builders physique and I couldn't be happier so far. Thanks Jason for explaining this it finally fills in the blanks as to what I've always wondered.

Thank you doctor for easy, simple and straight forward answer to the burning question in the bodybuilding community. I learn a lot about bodybuilding also from this video of yours, that was really great. You just reduced the 300-600 pages of bodybuilding books on how to build a muscle to 2 spoken sentences. That's really incredible. Thank you again. This video of yours is not just on query of fasting and muscle loss, it is about building lean mass, getting bigger in healthy manner and lot more about staying fit and health. Thank you doctor for all your efforts to make complicated topic easy and simple but at the same time profound. 🙏👍

Thanks Jason. That was reassuring. I need to fast for at least 40 hours each week (ie a full day and a night) as well as OMAD the other days. I thought I was doing OK and now you have confirmed it. I have nothing to worry about.
