What is particularly noble about Dr. Fung is that this information is put on KZread for anyone to find and use and benefit from. Its not behind a paywall, its not a commercial for buy my product, its just out there for anyone to use and get healthy. If only I had this information 10 years ago. I only recently discovered Dr. Fung in June of '22, but have lost over 70 pounds since then. Having watched almost all of the videos by now, I can't help but grin a tiny bit when Dr. Fung sounds a little exasperated at trying to say nicely for the 1 millionth time, "your eating to darn much!". I guess this is pretty much what ever doctor goes through with their patients. 😀

@Kent You asked how I lost the weight, I fasted and walked an hour or so everyday. I eat my last meal Sunday night, and then fast until Friday morning. I stay hydrated with water or tea, and take salt + an electrolyte supplement everyday. I tried various combinations of alternate daily fasts, but I was hungry all the time. Sunday to Friday just turned out to be the easiest, least complicated way to do the fast. In the beginning I was losing about 5ish lbs a week, but after about 6 months I'm only losing 2ish lbs a week. Though I have no way to measure, I don't feel like I've lost much if any muscle. The first week wasn't much fun adjusting to fasting, but 6 months later, its easy peasy.

Physically I feel like I could go a week or more without food. Its the mental challenge is what's so difficult to overcome. By Thursday night my brain just won't let up thinking about food. And trying to get any sleep Thursday night is just a exercise in futility, I toss and turn all night. I'm guessing its because of the counter regulatory hormones. Once I start eating again on Friday I feel awful. Its like how you feel after eating that huge thanksgiving meal, except I feel that way all day Friday. But at least I sleep great Friday night. Sat and Sun I do ok, I just feel normal again, then Monday and Tuesday I don't even want to look at food. 😎

I have followed Dr Fung for 7 years and I lost weight and a ton of inches

The book, "The Obesity Code" is truly life changing and should be required reading for all adults.

In 2018, I did not know what to do anymore to lose weight. I was browsing again to find a new option and - THANK GOD! - I found Dr Fung´s book "Obesity Code". Since then, I started fasting and my health is much more strong today. I´m sure, one day, all the world will accept the truth of what Dr Fung is saying. Thank you, Dr Fung for sharing your knowledge and keep fighting for the Truth. You are saving lives. God bless you!

Dr Fung just keeps honing this message - still getting better every time he does it ! Also, the person interrupting the audio is clearly not following the presentation (and requests for muting) , so next time, just kick them off.

So great to spend a Sunday afternoon settling in and watching a Dr. Fung lecture! (Better than the Packers today 🤪😅!). I remember when I started watching almost two years ago I was wondering if all this was really true and worked but felt it was worth a try. Now, I watch and think "Yes! That's so true! That's exactly what happens and how it works!". I'm 59 and I've lost over 150 lbs. and have been maintaining it well since then. The transformation has been profound. I did it all on my own, just by following and reading Dr Fung's books. I'm off my blood pressure meds, my osteoarthritis pain is so much better and my asthma is gone. I'm so thankful. Learning to fast changed my life. Thanks again for all you do 😊🙏

Wow...I'm 51 and the "eat less, move more" idea has ruled my life for 30 years. I just sucked up the fact that I was hungry all the time and it "worked," until I regained and did it again, just as you said. I found out about intermittent fasting 3 weeks ago and have done OMAD 75% and 18:6 the other 25% of that time, and I've lost 6 lbs! And I'm totally satisfied, hardly any hunger and my one meal is literally all I can eat at once. I feel great and see that my goal is not only in view but I'll never regain, again!!!! I might have to increase to two meals a day; I can't keep losing 2 lbs a week for much longer...what a problem, LOL! Thank you for laying it out so clearly!

80 days ago, I was one reading all of the comments on several of Dr Fungs videos thinking; there is no way this many people have been healed from not eating. 70 days after starting IF, I’m 60 lbs down, BP in check, A1C in check, foot fungus gone, skin issues gone, my addiction to food I didn’t know I had is cured.

Perfect example of a way to breakdown a complex subject but make it sound obvious and simple.

Now thanks to amazing lectures like this I understand the science properly and can openly discuss with evidence with anyone. The only terribly sad thing is that you can't really commercialise fasting like you can juice fasting or gyms etc etc so there is so much vested interest in not publicising IF.

I’ve been listening to you and others’ Keto and fasting videos since October 2021. I started intermittent fasting in March 2022 and on and off extended fasting in August 2020. I agree 100% about hunger pains (waves) passing during short and extended fasting but you are the first to explain why very simply. To paraphrase your explanation, when not fasting, you get hungry, you eat, the hunger goes away. When fasting, you get hungry on and off during your fast and your body starts eating your stored fat and the hunger goes away. Two questions 1. Will fasting help fight Diabetes Type 1? 1. Will a 72 hour or longer fast, resetting your immune system, help fight the HIV/AIDS virus? Thank you for all your videos

Fffffuuuuuunnnnnnnggggggg! Thanks for answering so many questions I had and explaining so many factors involved in IF. With such a clear and concise presentation as well.

As an older woman with celiac like inability to tolerate wheat and gluten and a family history of diabetes, obesity and heart disease I lost 34 pounds in three months doing IF and limiting carbs. That was more than a year ago and even though i’ve relaxed my restrictions the weight is staying off. My only issue has been some IB which I treat with a quality probiotic and at times a half dose of lomotil. I don’t hear of others having this problem so it must be specific to me. I would suggest that anyone fasting should pay attention to getting adequate fluids and electrolytes. This helped me tremendously and I was never ever hungry. 😊

If you eat all the carbs, then you never adapt to be a fat burner, your body stays a glucose burner, constantly burning those carbs demanding more and more, and your metabolism slows because on your "eat less, move more" way of eating your body fears famine and starvation. I've yo yo dieted from age 15 to 61 and that way never works (for me at least no more than 6-9 months) . Cutting carbs way down (for me almost always under 20 whole carbohydrates a day) and intermittent fasting are the only things that work. My intermittent fasting is 1-2 meals a day with at least 16 hours between supper of the eaving to lunch the next day. No long term fasting for me as I'm on blood thinners permanently and 24 hours is my limit without food or it seriously messes with my dosages. If I can do this after 55 years of fighting fat ( most years morbid obesity) anybody can!!!

I did intermittent fasting 36/12 from the beginning of July of 2022 - the beginning of October 2022. I lost about 35 lbs. On the days I ate, I ate whatever I wanted. Some days I ate one meal, other days I ate throughout the day. I did discover that I actually wanted to eat healthier as time passed. I let vacation, and then a illness in the family derail me for a time. I am now getting back to my every other day fasting. I have fasted days here and there, but have found it difficult to get started again, but today is the day. I will not stop this for even vacation. If I do have some special event come up I do allow myself salad and or soup on a fast day.

Back in the day, delaying a meal is torture on high carb diet! I would not be able concentrate, I would have a headache and feel terrible. If I restricted calories, I felt cold and terrible. Low carb diet made such a difference. Much easier to skip a meal and to not eat when not actually hungry. Dropped 30 lbs in 2011 and kept off, no suffering. Don't really miss those high carb foods as long as I don't eat the high carb foods and keep away from the fake sweeteners 95% of the time. Love all of your books Dr. Fung.

@Jason Fung could you do a series on “what the gut knows”? had a breakthrough experience because of fasting, that I didn’t expect to happen. I only ever crave sugar and it is unceasing. While I was sick with the flu I suddenly had an intense craving for fresh cranberries, raw blueberries. I was actually salivating. I walked by the EmergenC and thought I would faint. So I brought the items home and feasted heavily on them alongside my dinner. The next day I had the most thorough cleanse and I am recovering, and no longer craving vitamin C foods. I don’t crave sugar, either! I feel the wisdom of my gut has returned, the real “Intuitive Eating.” I’d love to hear what you know on the subject

I would like to know how to share this with friends who often ask but when I tell them I fast they almost immediately get defensive and say "oh I could never do that" or "I have to have eat (generally carbs) or my blood sugar drops and then I'm weak" etc. I haven't figured out how to respond to this in a positive way so I just let it go. I've tried explaining the science behind it but it falls on deaf ears, my guess is because they just think that fasting is 'starving'. Any suggestions?

First, thank you for sharing your experience. 50 lbs of sustained body fat loss seems impossible for some people especially those who have already yo-yoed several times due to the outdated and harmful "eat less, move more" mantra of the past 5 decades. Family and friends might not respond to hearing about fasting until they see the sustained healthy results. Three things that seemed to have helped me in at least getting my family to stop worrying or intervening when I fast is to: 1) make sure that they see me eat well as I do eat well when I eat. 2) get as knowledgeable as possible so that I could articulate the science when asked and give reliable resources (Dr. Fung's books, various studies, Dr. Bikman, etc), 3) check and share my blood glucose and ketones whenever asked (I bought a keto mojo for this). My family learned pretty quickly that a blood sugar of 60 and even lower with high ketones was normal for me on an extended fast and by no means unhealthy. It has been a long time.. maybe even a full year since I have been asked to check my glucose. If there is a family member who you are particularly concerned about who needs to lose weight/ reverse diabetes 2 but sees fasting as "starving", encourage them to do TRE (time restricted eating). Have them read books and listen to lectures by Dr. Satchin Panda. SOOO helpful.

A lot of people just want the easiest answer and if it doesn't sound easy they instantly shut off. What's crazy is that fasting actually _is_ the easiest answer, but in truth many people want to be told 'you can eat whatever you like whenever you like with no exercise and lose all the weight' lol. Or like "just drink this one tea each day with your regular meals and you'll lose weight". If someone is genuinely serious about wanting to lose weight and asks advice from someone who has lost weight, they _will_ look further into it even if they ultimately decide it's not for them. If they dismiss it instantly without even trying to learn about it, they're probably not serious!
