A Conversation with Dr. Robert Lufkin | Jason Fung

[@thecatisoutofthebag83]

Hi, this is my testimony. I am a 55 year old menopausal woman. A year ago, I weighed 190 pounds. I started watching Dr. Fung’s videos about intermittent fasting. In February 2024, I started one meal a day. I now weigh 152 pounds. I only need to lose 3 more pounds. I had Hashimoto’s. My antibodies have gone down by 40 percent without medication. My blood sugar is optimal. All my biological markers are optimal. I got a life insurance policy for my kids and got a preferred customer rate because I am now so healthy! It is not hard to do. Dr. Fung should get a Nobel prize for his contribution. Thank you, Dr! 💕💙

[@conroyfinnigan8731]

I agree with you 100 percent 😊

Thank you for sharing your success with us. It's encouraging to those of us that are struggling to stay on track.

@ You can do it! What I feel works the best is to implement small changes. Start with one small change. Then make another small change. I tell you: the compounding effects of small changes over time are mind blowing. I believe in you!

[@VegasHermit]

Thank you for your story, and congratulations!

I got type 2 diabetes in 2011. I refused diabetes treatment with drugs. I changed my lifestyle, first of all my diet and managed to achieve diabetes remission. 14 years have passed since then. My sugar has normal values, I don't have any consequences of diabetes. My mother, who is now 91 years old, also achieved this. Greetings from Serbia.

[@mcanultymichelle]

That’s fantastic and it’s also fantastic. You still have your mother around at 91. Blessings to you both and hi from the USA.👍

[@rickyb8636]

I did the same. Congrats to you.

[@milenastevanovic9107]

@@rickyb8636 Thank you, I congratulate you too. I would like official medicine to explain why it treats diabetes 1 and diabetes 2 in the same way, when they are two different diseases that only have the same consequences. Why is type 2 diabetes treated with insulin when the patient already has too much insulin in the blood?

[@michelm288]

Dr Fung. Based on your videos, this is my 4th year that I droped diabetes drugs including insuline injection twice s day. I lost 25kg and My respect Dr Fung.

Dr. Fung is a Rockstar...LEGEND

[@PatriciaBilleadeau-ui8eb]

Fasting has saved my life. First time in my life that I found something that actually helps me lose weight. The inches come off like crazy but the weight is the hardest part. I have lost over 90 pounds. I have more to go and I will get that weight off too. It is the only thing that works. Intermittent fasting and a low-carb diet absolutely correct it works.

[@Temachyotl33]

Long life and much blessings to Dr. Fung. Please continue to benefit people with good knowledge of health.

[@rjmclean1979]

I've really enjoyed this series of videos. Thanks for everything you have done for the world of health and diabetes management.

[@margomcintosh763]

I’m 71 and had a health emergency in my late 30’s. After going from specialist to specialist and only hearing about drugs with lots of side effects, I went to a Naturopath. Everything you two are talking about now is what he taught me and I turned my health around. In my mid 40’s I took Holistic Nutrition at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition. The alternative side has been preaching all these things for years and main stream doctors, except for a few, are deaf to anything but drugs. I’ve watched everything Dr. Fung has posted and have been intermittent fasting since July 2024. Never felt better!

[@happycamper9421]

[@Jimfrenchde]

Dr Fung and Dr Lustig, do you remember this Chiffon commercial selling margarine, where Mother Nature didn't like the product and said, "It is not nice to fool Mother Nature." And lightening strikes. That commercial seemed very prophetic.

[@cassieoz1702]

YES!! Get rid of the term 'insulin resistance' (because everyone and his dog has a different reason why it happens - divisive and confusing) and substitute 'hyperinsulinaemia'. So much easier to explain the rationale for management

[@cindybuerkle9773]

If someone adopts a fasting lifestyle, my guess is that breakfast foods are the ones most likely skipped... Also people will eat less and kick sugar addiction and hunger. This adds up to a negative impact on big food. And big pharma.

Saturated Fat blows my mind, because even if you accept that SatFat is bad (and I don't), all fructose is changed to SatFat by the liver, so every tsp of table sugar is half glucose and half SatFat (calorically at least) once the liver is done.

Just what I need after Christmas feast 😂

[@zakarayaful]

Dr. Fung. I have a question for you: I did IF and lost 10kg over 2 years. Kept the weight off for 6 years. Then listened to fitness coaches who said it is not beneficial. It is all about calories. I gained the 10kg back within a year. This week i started IF again. Insomnia is killing me. I remember having Insomnia when i was doing IF before but until tonight i didn't link the two.... It is the same feeling. Not hungry but agitated. As if i had a red bull before sleep. Is there any solution to this problem?

Does intermittant fasting affect high blood pressure

[@roxanne2977]

There is nothing wrong with intermittent fasting except for it’s hard in that it requires self control.

[@devin7741]

Will probably lower high blood pressure. Liver heals during fasting. Liver releases Angiotensin so messing the liver up is detrimental

[@thecatisoutofthebag83]

It affects everything positively!

[@225rip]

Durning a fast my Bp will go up but after I eat again it is much lower. Fast is the best way I found to get my health back. I do 24 or 48 weekly and sometimes 24 daily.

[@AzaleaBee]

@@225rip Your comment is important and needs to be shouted! Fasting causes stress.. it is true, but in the end once we start eating again (whole foods of course), a lot of things are better.

[@Philip__LXXMCCCXC]

I have type 2 diabetes, I'll try to keep low insulin levels low by fasting and eating low carb. hopefully it works

[@albaker3166]

What should the protein-fat-carb ratio should be?

[@smarandadominte]

It depends how insulin resistance you are. If the resistance is high, less carbo intake , even 0 for a while. Try different levels of carbs to see what is good for your health. Fat and protein are not a problem.

Hi dr jason fung im reading on the internet that prolonged water fasting increases insulin resistance. I though it would be the opposite. Which is it ?

[@Andypandieful]

I naturally do intermittent fasting. Never have wanted 3 meals. I weigh what I did in high school. Same body structure too. Almost 60

[@SubTerraAlly]

There's no such thing as an essential carbohydrate. I've been carb free for 4+ years. Never been healthier.

[@karenohanlon4183]

Some people myself included have bad insomnia. Could that be due to too much protein? Or is it due to sugar withdrawal? If my sleep would be even six full hours of uninterrupted sleep. Then I F is fantastic.

Of course he also mentioned interventional treatments. I was frustrated to hear this . We already know that fasting insulin levels can already predict all this . Whats the one test an nhs uk GP cant order . Fasting insulin .😨

You gotta be a doctor to understand some of this stuff geez

[@cassieoz1702]

Because of what they've been (inappropriately) been taught, the lifestyle advice docs give doesnt work and isnt sustainable. So it takes no time at all for the docs to be completely disillusioned with the 'lifestyle' option. From what ive seen, the medical schools that are planning to introduce nutrition training, are working towards 'orthodox' nutrition content, so be careful what you wish for.

[@AMERICAFIRST54]

If one does not have fatty liver disease, why then should one fast?

[@AzaleaBee]

There are many, many reasons to fast. Chronic pain relief, metabolic health, brain health, mental clarity, weight management, overall well-being, food/alcohol reset, cancer prevention/treatment, spiritual practice, convenience, body/mind strength exercise, etc. And don't knock the "convenience" factor. It is one reason why I sometimes fast especially when traveling when only fast "food" is available.
