Check out the 5 easy steps to weight loss - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hc2deaiTlciUhH0.html

Hi Dr: you saved my life. I was diagnosed with the beginning of Type 2 diabetes and given Metformin and was told to go home. I was upset. I Google how to reverse Type 2 diabetes and your videos came up. I lost 20 pounds in one month with IF. I do 16:8. Feeling great. Cut my carbs too. Good bye Type 2 diabetes, lung constriction and severe sinus problems bonus anxiety too. i still got 20 more to lose. I spent not even 1 penny. thank you thank you and thank you. many blessings

I am a nun I have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes for almost 12 years. Three years ago I stopped taking my medication. Then started to fast intermittent then alternative fasting, water fasting 7 days a month and 6 days dry fasting. I reversed the diabetes. Now I love fasting so much. I also change my diet. I am now sharing my story with people around me. Thanks to you doctor. You need to come to The Gambia people are not being g help with this problem. My doctor said I will develop complication if I fasted. He was surprise when I did the A1C test and have 5. I stopped seeing him.

Its amazing how many people take this as him promoting a lower calorie intake, he is promoting regulation of insulin and blood sugar. A MUCH more complicated task.

This man is so kind in breaking this down. Not talking down to or condemning people who are overweight and explaining the causes and treatment in an understandable way (without taking himself too seriously). Bravo!

Aside from how wonderfully informative this video is, as somebody who’s even been judged by her own friends, I just felt so much comfort hearing somebody say that I’m not a gluttonous slob. ☺️

What I like about this guy is that he says a lot of "We". Not offending other doctors but you just know he is not one of those stupid doctors WHO DON'T CARE.

I was angry and suspicious of what was going on with food in the USA -obesity, diabetes was too rampant. Then I came across Dr Phinney, Dr Attia, Dr Fung, et al Grateful for these healers.

You changed my life I have lost 62 lbs in the last 4 months. I love this ❤️ life style

don't know why, i started applauding at the end of the video like I was actually there...

This channel should have millions of subscribers. (it just got one more)

One thing that Dr. Fung points out that is such a crucial distinction, is that there is a huge difference between fasting and calorie restriction. Those two things DO NOT have the same metabolic effect.

Hi Dr. Fung. I tweeted this video out. You've changed the way I think of losing weight. On 6/7/'20 I was 181.4 pounds and using 16 hours fasting on August 1st I was 161.7 pounds. Now that I understand how the body works, I am able to control my weight without yo-yoing. Thank you for your message.

After watching your videos I feel like I want to SUE somebody for mistreating me and NOT teaching me what I needed to know!!!

Thank you Dr Fung. On January 15th this year, at 72 years old and 276 pounds I was actually crying as I was eating to kill the pain in my stomach after having just eaten two hours before. Totally discouraged after trying every different diet since I was in my twenties to no avail. Then I decided to google my situation and asked "What the HELL is the matter with me???" Google sent me to KZfaq and videos of you and Dr Berg. I watched and listened intently and determined that I was suffering from insulin resistance. I was sooooo sick of eating, I started 18/6 intermittent fasting that day. My hunger pains were gone within 2 days and within a week I was down to 20/4 . I am down 21 pounds and finally feel I'm in control of my life again thanks to you and Dr Berg for your wonderfully informative videos. I tried OMAD a couple of time but found I couldn't eat enough in one meal to get all my nutrients so am staying at 20/4. Also pre diabetic glucose numbers are becoming lower.

Damn this is insightful af. I've lost 127 lbs by just eating healthy foods and now I've learned why it has worked for me. I purposely reduced the amount of carbs I'd eat and now I know why I'm not hungry all the time even though I've been eating lighter the last two years than I ever have. Currently 193 lbs, 6'1", started losing weight at my max of 320 lbs. Only just a little more belly fat to go and I'll have arrived at my goal body composition.

Hi Dr. Fung, You helped me get my life back. I am no longer on pain killers and I have much more energy. I suffered with fatigue and Cronic pain all over my body for years . I was get sicker every month. Since I have been intermittent fasting I feel much healthier And lost weight. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I Don't count calories. Stay safe.

Thank you Dr Fung. After 20 years of weighing over 300+ pounds I finally get it. I am ready to take. back my life thank you for all of the informative videos 😁

Because of Dr. Fung is so willing to share his knowledge to everyone who has access to the internet, I am finally understanding why I have always had a weight problem. Now I understand some of how the body works and am controlling my weight through intermittent fasting. I am 67 years old and have lost 42 pounds thanks to Dr. Fung and also Dr. Eric Berg. Thank you so much Dr.

I love you fung. You helped me erase my OBESITY.

I have been on 20 or less grams of carbs daily for a year. I find it extremely easy. Now that I understand what poor quality food does to my body I have no desire to poison myself. Once a person is educated there is no reason to be over weight (exempting some medical issues ). Thank you Dr. Fung !!!!

You have just entered my life and I thank God for you! I am starting my 16/8 today!! Love from South Africa!

I tell patients every day, "STOP COUNTING CALORIES!"

As a sober, recovering alcoholic, your analogy definitely resonated with me, lol

Dr Fung... I can not thank you enough.... while I have just started I now know I can do it. You have made the world a better place. Thank you

How does Dr Fung only have 90K subscribers? For me, he’s one of the most knowledgeable Doctors on this planet around type 2 diabetes, fasting and obesity yet there are youtube vloggers who simply rehash Dr Fung’s research and ideas and have many more subscribers. Love this guy...no BS, simple and well researched data, and one of the guys who helped me get completely rid of my belly fat.

Omg I love Dr. Jason Fung. He makes everything simple. Thank you and to all who share what is working for you! ❤️

Dr. Fung, Thank You, You saved my life, the weight loss is easy, I’m never hungry and my “diet” days are over. The low carb lifestyle is my new normal. The blood sugar meter and not the scale is the thing! 16/8 fasting. 🌹☦️🌹

I really enjoy your presentations! I have learned a lot over the last several weeks, and it has helped me embark upon a Ketogenic lifestyle change that includes daily intermittent fasting, plus two days of 24 hour fasting during the week. It has only been ten days, but my joints no longer ache, and I'm starting to feel sharper and more focused (even though I'm not yet adapted, and still dragging a bit). Not to mention the weight that is starting to fall off.

As a type one diabetic I can attest to this. When I was eating a higher carbohydrate diet and taking more insulin I was heavier with more body fat even though I’m a naturally lean individual. The other problem with taking more insulin to account for carbs is you are bound to miscalculate because it’s almost never perfect because there are other factors that can cause your blood sugar to go low besides insulin. There were so many times when I had eaten 3 meals with multiple snacks then my blood sugar would drop because of exercise or injecting too much and my hunger was so intense that I would eat so much, give myself more insulin then go low again and the cycle would continue...

I just have to put it out there this is the best explanation of obesity I have ever watched and I’m glad you provided the correct sources and studies which help prove your point doctor. I’m optimistic and happy about my future decisions when it comes to healthy eating and lifestyle choices, thank you so much!

Fantastic speech!!! Even ppl who dont hv professional medical knowledge can totally understand what he is talking about.👍

OMG! 2019 and a newbie on fasting...i loved Doc.Fung 😘

Another great presentation. Thank you, Dr. Fung!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge Dr. Fung! I am thankful to stumble on your video.

Thank you Dr. Fung. this was a very good and clear explanation. I recently started cutting out sugars and starches and have lost ~20 pounds in 8 weeks without feeling hungry or counting calories. I'm not on "low carb" except insofar as getting as much sugar (sucrose) and starches out of my diet tends to push me towards lower carb intake (I've had to consciously increase my non-processed carb intake - meaning more vegetables and fiber rich food - and in effect, I am "forced" into eating healthier.)

I just started OMAD diet, after completing WHOLE30. I feel good about it especially after hearing the science behind that philosopy from Dr. Fung. Thank you!

Jason fong is THE MAN!! thank you sir!

So grateful I found you - I've had some 20-30 pounds for lose and no one believes I eat as little as I do! I've been researching this exact topic because I know from experience that the low calorie diet DOES NOT WORK

Hi Dr. Fung! I'm so inspired by your videos. The information just makes so much sense to me. Thank you so much for making these helpful videos. Would you please make a video that addresses fatty liver disease? I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos as well as reading both your books that I just recently purchased. 😊

I have been looking into this stuff for couple of months. This explains perfectly STORE FAT vs BURN ENERGY,

Dr. Fung. I apologize for accusing you of not mentioning Taubes. I see that you do in fact metion him in your book. I've just seen so many examples of people ripping off his work without givining him the credit due... Keep it up mate!

The proof is in the pudding. Since going low carb I've knocked off weight that has been with me since late teens. And it has been painless. (Now need to do more fasting for autophagy and be less indulgent with 'snacking.')

Dr. Jason Fung you are brilliant! I wish all your video have Chinese subtitles. 😊

Excellent as always.

Thank you for sharing You have helped me so much Wow the obesity code brilliant Wow the diabetes code brilliant Book on fasting was the first book I got just a reminder of my Mormon childhood Thank you God bless you n your family

I love this man! Excellent Dr Fung! Simply excellent.

He kind of looks and sounds like a Chinese Matt Damon

I admire his speaking skills. I want to be like him.

Hey Dr Fung, I am so relieved! My worst critics were me, myself, and I. "If I would just eat less and exercise more; why am I so lazy?" etc., my self talk WAS pretty destructive. I had given up on any hope of loosing weight and getting into good physical shape Currently I have a waste measurement of 52 inches, at 284lbs and 5'2, I have been so discouraged until NOW! I am on my first week of a low carb, protein in moderation, high fat Ketogenic lifestyle. I have successfully fasted in the past, so doing intermittent fasting will not be a problem. I have eliminated sugars both in processed and natural forms. For now I am avoiding alcohol and no more then one cup of morning java. This a major habit change and I realize that in three weeks a habit change will be ingrained. Here is my Question: In your talk, you state that early onset of Diabetes II can be reversed with diet and fasting, but will I always be "insulin resistant?" Looking down the road say one year, and I have lost the weight, gained muscle by working out, and am feeling more energy. Will the insulin resistance only be controlled by diet, or will my body heal itself of insulin resistance? Let us say I want to incorporate dates for energy bars, or have an occasional glass of wine (not every day, more like 2-3 times per week, one glass) Will my insulin resistance come back with those slight changes? Assuming I continue on Ketogenic lifestyle with intermittent fasting? Thank you for your input Carrie in Texas

As a type 1 Diabetic, Dr Fung’s expertise has helped me tremendously 👏👏

U got my health back with your teaching went from a1-c of 10 to a 5.5 in 3 months

A very informative talk. I bought your book. It was about this same subject and statutes up all night reading it

In the summer of last year (2018), I weighed 27½ stone (385 lbs); having been fat 20 years - Type II diabetic... I accidentally (by fortune) rediscovered cycling in July. I lost around a stone through going out for a 2 or 3 mile ride twice a week. On August 19th 2018 at around 26 stones in weight I made the decision to go for a ride every night to lose weight with a target weight of 20 stones. Since 19 August, I have failed to go out for just 7 days: 5 days in October of 2018 through having an impacted wisdom tooth removed at hospital. Then January 18th & 31st where local roads had been too icy to safely ride. (I don't want a broken arm!)... I will be going for a ride later this evening again (I now have a habit) My weight came down to around 23½ stone by late November and stayed there on the run in to Xmas. Sure, I ate a few mince pies and cakes (which really have not been in my diet to any real degree for literally years)... Why had my weight "plateaued" when I had gone out EVERY DAY progressively riding further and further ???? Over Christmas I was messing with google to ask about weight loss and I came across "the INSULIN theories". I didn't keep a diary in 2018 but I got one to start this year (2019). The last day of last year was a Monday. On 31/12/18, my weight was 23 stone 8 lbs (330 lbs)... But I decided to put the no or low carbs theories to the test. YES, I certainly am still riding my bike every day. I now ride 8½ miles during the evenings and further at the weekends - but I was doing this before Xmas when my weight stayed roughly the same for a month... But without any significant intake of carbohydrates, my weigh fell to 21 stone 3 lbs (297 lbs) by 31/1/19 - yes a loss of 33 lbs / 2½ stones !!!!! Sure, I have put some work in (about an hour an evening) cycling.... But since cutting out (or right down) the carbs, feeling hungry has 'gone away' and I am losing weight. I am lighter than I have been for more than 15 years !!! Being a T2 diabetic al this time, no-one has ever said NO carbs explaining why. Sure - no cakes, no biscuits.... But I'd been told to eat Special K or Weetabix or Shredded wheat!! I have cut out stuff like Utterly Butterly, bread, vegetable oils. I now eat bacon, baked beans, chicken, eggs. I put cream in coffee (NOT milk) and I don't fel hungry and I am losing weight. Now I finally understand the mechanism of what is going on inside of me I am dealing with it. I agree wholeheartedly with Dr Fung's (and others) observations that it's the control of insulin. In its absence, my own 'larder' is finally open for my body to use and burn off. I have a target of reaching 17 stones (238 lbs) by August this year (2019). I will keep you posted

Thank You for sharing your knowledge. The most Genius Doctor I've known.

This guy is fun to watch *and* informative 👍🏿

I hope you can also do research about PCOS and its relevance with fasting.

This guy is a genius! I have never seen or heard of anyone explain it so well! Him and dr. Berg are awesome!

Great explanation! Thank you!

Agree 100% By Personal Experience I’m Now 45 And Wish I Would Have Known About This Earlier. I’m Now On The Right Track To Better Health. Only (6) More Pounds To Loss To Get Out Of The Obesity Stage. This Is A Life Change For Me No Diet. I Plan To Stay “Off” Medicine.

Wow... I feel like I am at the end of my rope with all this insulin pumped into me. Constantly trying new insulins and increasing and increasing .... Please keep presenting. Somewhere, sometime you will make a big difference. Thank you 🙏🏻

Dear doc. I am very thankful for all your videos. It has given me a tremendous amount of knowledge about diet management! It will be of great help for all of us who are following you if you can make a video/presentation about Circadian Cycle and insulin secretion (comparison between a normal and diabetic)! I think it will be of great help to those who wish to manage their diabetic! Show less REPLY

Thanks Dr Fung. This is gold and will go on to save the quality of life for many. 🙏

I adore this guy he gives an essential message with humour as well as science!

Dont let your breakfast break your fast. 16/8 baby... Yea

Every time he says "Right?" take a drink :)

This message has saved me from 60 years of self disgust. 2 months in and 20 lbs lighter! Never going back again!

THANK YOU DR FUNG.

"You idiot"... 🤣🤣🤣 Love Dr. Fung

This makes sense. I've been eating no more than 1900 calories a day for 2 months, and I'm up 1 pound. Everyone comments how little I eat, yet it's ironic because I'm overweight.

Every word you said .. Is precious dr Fung

Great talk makes so much sense

THANK YOU SO MUCH DR!!!! FINALLY... AN HONEST DR THAT IS SPEAKING THE TRUTH FER ONCE... NAMASTE ;'0) M

53 Fat doctors disapprove of this

Here we have a person to be grateful for, thank you for these presentations an the humor

Hi Doctor Fung. Are there any tips for intermittent fasting for people with vasovagal syncope?

Dr. Fung, what do you think about a vegan diet? such as in Caldwell Esselstyn's heart disease reversing diet? or Michael Greger from Nutritionfacts.org?

This is highly informative as well as highly entertaining 😂

Thank you Dr. Fung 😊

Informative, and enjoyable.

Good education...

Right

Great channel .. Awesome content ! thanks !!!!

This is fascinating. Thank you for sharing this. I would like to apply your approach with low carbs and intermittent fasting. The only thing is that I train to race on my bike up to 5 times per week doing 2.5 to 4 hours per session. If I apply fasting from 6pm to 12pm and I want to exercise from say 10am to 1pm, how do I make sure that I will have sufficient energy through my bike rides. (Most of my training rides are of low to moderate intensity with some high intensity effrots involved.) I would be grateful if you can provide some insight on a low carb diet for athletic individuals requirements. Thanks.

I own your books, and I keep them out for everyto ask me who you are, sometimes they wish they hadn’t asked.

so valuable I'm sharing this and recommending your book. please do an interview with Dr Perlmutter

Thank you very much!

Very enjoyable and informative lecture. 👌🙌

Wish Dr. Fung would do a video on Peri and Post Menopausal weight gain for women.

This is a great lecture.

hello Dr. Jason i wanted to ask you what do you think about dry fasting is it safe?

Falling love to you Dr Jason Fung!

Funny guy! And extremely informative, truly the definition of "edutainment".

I love your example on alcoholism lol NOW I understand what you mean about proximate and ultimate cause :-)

Thank you so.much doctor for really help us the major problem of obesity

Superb Knowledge Transition

Sir can u do a video on long term effects of low carbs diet

I am so glad I found you Dr. Fung. I have always felt deep inside my gut instincts telling me that the "calories in calories out" model didn't make sense. Our bodies don't process everything we eat the same way. It almost seems ridiculous that this belief system became so popular when it clearly doesn't add up (no pun intended ). It makes so much more sense that HORMONES NOT CALORIES determine and regulate weight gain/loss. The quality of the food, not just the quantity. What is very clear to me is that there is more money to be made by companies selling food, pharmaceuticals, diet products, etc by an increasingly obese society who can't lose weight and/or keep it off. There is very little money to be made by people knowing the truth about how true weight loss (fat loss in particular) happens and is sustainable. Obesity makes a lot of people sick, but it's also making a lot of people rich. Imagine if we all had the knowledge to heal ourselves, a lot of companies would go out of business. Thank you, Dr. Fung for caring and being compassionate enough to tell us the TRUTH about how to be healthy. Thank you for debunking what we have been told for years will work, but clearly isn't and in fact only making people fatter and more sick. Now, if only people will listen to you and apply this knowledge and go against the lies they have been taught for so long about calories, and focus on what actually regulates their hormones, then maybe we can finally get a grip on the obesity epidemic that is killing so many. P.S. There shouldn't be fat doctor's. Huge red flag.

Dr. Jason Fung, I'm a big fan of you and the great work you've done. For me, fasting (what in my opinion should be called simply "eating", and the way people usually eat should be called "over-eating" or "insulin-damaging diet" or something like that) it's not only interesting from the biological and nutrition perspective, but also from the sociological and "anarchist" perspective (Docs, Labs, Pharma and food companies trying to hide information or simply lying to us for business purposes), so it's a topic I'm fascinated, and I really appreciate what you've done. I have a personal question to ask you, if possible, of an specific situation that is happening to me. I'm 1.78mts, 74kgs, around 10% body fat, I intensely workout 5 times a week, gym and calisthenics, I'm a Vegetarian (Veggies, seeds, nuts + cheese + yogurt), I don't eat too many carbs, basically some bread on weekends and some beers or wine during the week (soon I will reduce alcohol intake looking for more improvement), and I had excellent results with intermittent fasting (I eat from 5pm to 9pm) that allows me to keep lean. But I have the following issue: I've been stuck with my muscle-mass for a while, I can't grow anymore or very little. And every time I start to eat more looking for growth, or extending the fasting window, for example having lunch after workout, let's say 1pm to 9pm instead of 5-9, I lose the "fasting" feeling in my body very quick, in fact after few days I look more fat (I'm not sure if its really body fat or simply swollen), the point is that for me it become: or keeping lean, or grow but feeling/looking fat. From the fasting perspective, what would be your opinion or suggestion. Thank you very much. Regards from Switzerland!

The Best doctor ever,
