Liked and shared. Question - does the calorie restriction lower metabolism? Some say to be sure to at least get your BMR calories in your eating window. Any clarification? Thanks ☺️

[@phoneaccount45]

@hubermanlab Hello Professor. Could you advise how long did it take for the effects on liver of these mice to reverse with the time restricted feeding that you talk about at 37:00 of your podcast. And can you please reference the studies on humans that you speak about simultaneously, showing the same effect? And for the pillars that you talk about at 40:12. Infact, it'd be great if you could publish all the studies that you reference so we don't ask you time and again 😅TIA

Some notes: The ideal fasting protocol: 1- No food for at least 1 hour after waking up 2- No food for 2-3 hours prior to bed time 3- 8 hours of bed time 4- 8 hours feeding window 5- RESPECT the feeding window 6- The IDEAL is 10am-6pm To build muscle: -Ingest protein early in the day -It does NOT matter when you train -Move feeding window to early in the day. Shifts in the eating windows cause disruption in the cyrcadian clock mechanisms and take 2-3 days to recover from. So the feeding window has to be regular. If not, its like jet lag. Glucose clearing: - Light movement after dinner (light walk 20 min) - HIIT: ○ Heart rate above 70% ○ If done early in the day it increases blood glucose ○ If done in afternoon it will increase glucose clearing (speed up the fed-state to fasted-sate), provided you don't eat after the HIIT. Intermittent Fasting is about extending the fasted state, not just the eating windows. What happens when you are fasted? - Reduces Mtor (Protein active in cells that are growing). - Increases in AMPK and ketons: cell breakdown and repair - Assists with microbiome health and irritability syndrom - Increases brown fat stores (People who have low brown fat have more chances of liver desease) - Hormones: ○ Decreases free testosterone ○ Decreases cortisol: the reduction in cortisol offests the reduction in free testosterone. ○ TRF is consistent with quality hormone levels. - Burns more fat (when in caloric deficit) How? ○ By increasing hepatic lipase (enzyme that metabolizes fat) ○ Reduces CIDEC (lypid that inhibits lipolysis) Glucose disposal agents: - Cinammon - Lemon/Lime Juice (because of acidity) - Burburin - Metformin Consume SALT for electrolytes.

I thought I have undiagnosed ADHD my entire life because I could never concentrate on a task for very long. My life was chaotic. I also thought I had depression. My memory was poor. At 50 and listening to Dr. Andrew Huberman, I am implementing what I have learned. I feel centered, focus, strong, have more energy, and enjoy and look forward to living a healthy, productive life.

I'm another airline pilot... I fly long haul all over the world, away from home time zone about 50% of the time. I am often flying at night time then sleeping during the day. Then i get home and have to quickly shift back to a sleep pattern that fits in with my family. Then i go again, often at night. Sometimes during a flight the sun never comes up and others it never goes down, depending on which direction I am flying. My body is forever adjusting and catching up, sometimes in jet lag for weeks at a time. Sometimes during these night flights I eat plane food (itself not healthy) partly for practical reasons and partly because of boredom. Even if it is daylight outside it could be night time at my home base. Pilots are not alone in facing the challenges of shiftwork so maybe you could do a video for how to address these problems? Many individuals and industries would find this useful.

00:00 🍽️ Fasting and time-restricted feeding are interconnected; most people unknowingly practice intermittent fasting during sleep. 01:56 🕰️ Time-restricted feeding can impact various aspects of health, including weight loss, fat loss, muscle maintenance, organ health, genome, epigenome, inflammation, sickness, recovery, exercise, cognition, mood, and lifespan. 03:24 📊 Higher blood glucose is associated with mortality in humans, while lower blood glucose predicts mortality in mice, highlighting species-specific differences in research translation. 08:25 🚀 Understanding the mechanisms of time-restricted feeding empowers individuals to make informed dietary choices tailored to their specific goals and contexts. 19:46 🍽️ When you eat is as important as what you eat, as eating and fasting set conditions in the body affecting liver health and mental health. 22:40 🕒 Fasting leads to lower blood glucose and insulin levels, while increasing hormones like GLP1 and glucagon, which mobilize energy sources, including fat. 24:05 🥗 Weight loss benefits from time-restricted feeding are dependent on specific conditions being met in the body over time. 26:54 🐭 Satchin Panda's landmark study on mice showed that time-restricted feeding, not caloric intake, prevented metabolic diseases in mice fed a high-fat diet. 35:00 🌞 Time-restricted feeding enhances circadian rhythm and gene expression, contributing to positive health effects in both mice and humans. 42:09 🍽️ The ideal feeding window should either extend the sleep-related fast into the morning or start it in the evening for optimal health benefits. 45:57 🍽️ Establishing an eating window within the first hour after waking can accelerate the transition into a fasted state, optimizing the benefits of fasting. 46:25 🕰️ To capitalize on sleep-related fasting benefits, avoid eating too close to bedtime, with a fasting window beginning at least 2-3 hours before sleep. 48:49 🌙 Fasting during sleep is vital as it triggers automatic cell processes, clearing out debris from the brain and enhancing cognition. 51:13 🕰️ An ideal feeding window is around 10 AM to 8 PM, allowing you to capitalize on fasting benefits while fitting social and cultural eating patterns. 57:26 🍽️ A 7-9 hour feeding window is beneficial for most people, providing health benefits of time-restricted feeding while being sustainable and realistic. 01:08:29 🕰️ Irregular feeding windows may disrupt circadian clock mechanisms and negate the positive health effects of intermittent fasting. 01:11:23 🚶 Light exercise, like a 20-30 minute walk after a meal, can help accelerate the transition from a fed to a fasted state and improve glucose clearing. 01:14:43 🏋️ High-intensity interval training in the afternoon or evening can help lower blood glucose and facilitate the transition into the fasted state, promoting intermittent fasting benefits. 01:26:22 📈 Eating promotes cellular growth, while fasting promotes cellular repair and clearance, explaining the importance of intermittent fasting in accessing the fasted state. 01:29:16 🍽️ Time-restricted feeding with an 8-hour window may improve gut health, reducing lactobacillus levels and promoting healthier gut microbiota, potentially benefiting those with gut issues. 01:30:43 🥦 Brown fat, located between scapulae and upper neck, has a positive effect on reducing other types of fat and may prevent non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. 01:31:42 🍔 Time-restricted feeding positively increases brown fat stores, benefiting liver health and insulin profiles. 01:32:39 🚴‍♂️ Time-restricted eating may have positive effects on athletic performance, immune function, and body composition in athletes. 01:34:34 🚦 Time-restricted feeding may lead to a decrease in free testosterone but is compatible with hormone health, especially when considering cortisol reduction. 01:38:24 📅 An 8-hour feeding window appears to be a useful guide for time-restricted feeding and has shown benefits in weight loss and reducing blood pressure. Individual factors and food choices should be considered when adopting time-restricted feeding. 01:52:41 🕰️ Time-restricted feeding (TRF) increases lipases for fat loss and reduces lipolysis inhibitors. TRF with sub-caloric intake is scientifically supported for weight loss from body fat stores. 01:53:36 🚫 Eating and not eating are not equivalent to fed and fasted states. Whether something breaks a fast depends on when, what, and how much you ate, and your circadian cycle. 01:56:37 🍽️ Negotiating what to eat during a fasting window: Fat fasting may not break the fast; proteins have intermediate effects; carbohydrates with fats blunt glucose rise. 02:04:24 🧂 Consuming a pinch of salt can stabilize blood glucose, help manage mental and physical state during fasting, and reduce feelings of hunger and lightheadedness. 02:11:06 ⏰ Ideal intermittent fasting schedule: Avoid food for at least an hour after waking up and 2-3 hours before bedtime. Aim for an 8-hour feeding window; adapt it based on personal preference and adherence. 02:14:36 🍽️ The ideal feeding window for time-restricted eating should be set within a specific range, considering factors like human subject data and circadian clock genes. 02:15:35 🕰️ Consistency in the feeding window is essential for maximizing the positive health effects of time-restricted feeding. Avoid shifting the window to prevent disrupting the circadian rhythm. 02:16:34 🌞 To optimize health benefits, the fasting window should be extended around sleep on both sides, with an example of eating from 10 AM to 6 PM. However, this may not be practical for everyone. 02:18:31 💪 The timing of your exercise can affect your feeding window. Protein ingestion early in the day may benefit muscle maintenance or hypertrophy, but it depends on individual preferences and goals. 02:20:58 🚶‍♀️💊 To manage blood glucose levels and fasting periods, a brisk walk after eating or glucose disposal agents like Metformin or berberine may be helpful. Adequate water and salt intake is also crucial for maintaining stability during fasting. Recap by HARPA AI 🧬

I have been on a diet since last year in July. I lost over 110 pounds in a year. I weighed 285 pounds and started having health problems. High blood pressure, high cholesterol and almost diabetes. Sleeping problems due to snoring and constant heartburn. And a year ago I decided to start fighting for my health and life because it could have ended badly. I did it for myself and for my family. It was a hard fight for me, especially the first few days. It was hard but really worth it. From size XXL I am now size S. The waist of the pants was size 36, today it is size 30. Today I weigh 170 pounds. Im on diet until the end of this month . Im working out at the gym form 2 months and running 3 miles 3 times a week also from 2 months . I went to the doctor 3 months ago and everything is now normal.👌🏻😉 ... It's worth fighting for your health and life because we only have one life.

[@laslloofficial2368]

Also I take a multivitamin, vitamin b12, fish oil , magnesium and Whey protein .And on very beginning of the diet in first two weeks I was taking electrolytes Also i drink apple cider vinegar twice a day in the morning and before bed and it’s works for me really good.

My notes, or a slightly detailed summary of this video: RULES FOR TIME RESTRICTED FEEDING: - Do not ingest any food in the first hour (at least) after waking. - Do not ingest any food 2-3 hours before bed time (or liquid calories). - WHEN you eat is as important as WHAT you eat. - 8 hours of sleep is ideal for maximum health-related fasting benefits. THE IDEAL FEEDING WINDOW: When is it best to fast? It is important to note that fasting does not begin as soon as you are finished eating, because you are still digesting. - It is best to extend the sleep fast into the morning, or start in the evening. - Having a 12:00pm - 08:00pm eating window is ideal for most social settings (family, etc). - It is better to select for example a 6 hour feeding window if your focus is 8 hours, 8 hours if your focus is 10, in order to maintain adherence (if that is a problem). - Short feeding windows (4-6 hours) are best for positive health and psychological effects, HOWEVER, it can have no change or an increase in body weight, due to overeating in that window. PROTEIN CONSUMPTION & MUSCLE GROWTH: - Muscle is more able to grow early on in the day, because of the expression of a certain "clock gene" (BMAL1) that regulates protein synthesis. - It is best to break the fast early in the day (after having fasted for at least 1 hour after waking) with protein, to express muscle growth. HOW TO SHIFT YOUR EATING WINDOW: - Transition period of 7 - 10 days. - Shift eating window by 1 hour a day, until you reach your desired window. - Eating window times must be regular every day, with no occasional changes. - Accelerating the rate at which you begin your fasting state, which is done through: - Light walking or excercise 20 mins. - Intense training later in the day can help decrease blood glucose and hasten the fasted state. ADDITIONAL NOTES: - Eating only every other day has the most significant weight loss effects, without major detrimental health effects. - Lemon and cinnamon have a blood glucose lowering effect. - A pinch of salt in water can help with the side effects of low blood sugar during your fast (light-headedness, shakiness, inability to focus). - Caffeine will cause you to lose water (diuretic effect) and with it sodium. - Inclusion of the sleep related fast into your fasting schedule is important for health benefits.

Intermittent fasting everyday since December. My usual is 20-4 or 18-6. Shortest is 16. Longest is 48 hours. This has worked over calorie counting, intuitive eating, and working out 6x a week. Lost 15% of my body weight. Those other things worked when i needed to get healthy in my 30's, but perimenipause is a whole other ballgame. By your 40's those non-communicable diseases start rearing their head. Glad i started IF and it's sustainable. I also think of food differently now and take sleep seriously. Whatever goes in my body either helps me or hurts me. Understanding how obesity is related to hormones has completely changed my outlook and how i live. Thank you for this information. Calories in and calories out only worked when i went down to 800 calories. And i would save calories to eat a couple of cookies I wanted at the end of the day. All calories aren't equal when one causes insulin resistance/prediabetes and the other doesn't. Which is what i had in December. Working on reversing it. Thank you for this useful information that we can actually put into practice.

My experience with fasting. I went from 350lbs down to 200lbs with fasting in about a year and a half. It is a really powerful tool, and I am so blessed to have found and tried it successfully. It changed my life. I did it for most days, but didn't freak out if I didn't. I will say this. Though it is a powerful tool, it may only help you get to a point to where you can hone in on what your real issue is. For example. I was a big fan of larger meals or feeling full as opposed to feeling satiated. So I would eat two larger meals a day and some healthier snacks along with staying hydrated in a 6-8 hour window at sub 2,000 calories and cardio. The problem was, I didn't really change my relationship or behaviors with food. I just kind of avoided it with fasting. Obviously this is just my experience, but I have kept almost all the weight off now, and am currently learning how to eat like a "normal person" as per portions and healthy options without fasting, and trying to build muscle. It's been very freeing. Just remember, there are no free rides. When you are hungry you can be irritable, and can lose focus too. You can also get in to patterns of starving and bingeing. I think most of the benefits I got from fasting would have come from just losing weight, but who knows. I would strongly recommend fasting to many people who struggle with their weight, but would also do so cautiously. Have a plan to come off fasting, and don't be a slave to it. In reality, you most likely aren't going to do it forever. Then, you can cycle back in to it, or use it as a tool to achieve your goals. Just throwing this all out there. Stay healthy my friends! An thanks for the video Andrew!

when I decided to start doing intermittent fasting the first 2 1/2 days were pretty terrible. I seriously felt as if I had been out drinking all night and had a bad hangover. About halfway through the third day it was like a switch had been flipped. I felt GREAT. The biggest surprise for me during the fasting period of time is my ability to focus. I have ADHD and my brain and emotions are all over the place 24/7. While fasting, my thoughts are in order, I can fully focus on what task I'm doing and quickly complete it, my emotions are stable, I don't have anxiety, I feel optimistic and accomplished, I have consistent stable energy and I don't have my usual body aches. I haven't felt this good in decades. Feeling this way and knowing my body is running optimally because I'm not longer repetitively dumping a bunch of junk into it and allowing it time to repair itself makes the fasting process easy.

I found myself on a time-limited eating schedule, approx a decade ago, due to abominable work demands. I had no time for "breakfast" or "lunch" meals. I only had the chance to eat at night. The work was pretty physical (data infrastructure construction) also. I lost all of my former "business man" with business/social eating habits fat, and excess weight (only 20ish pounds), over about a year, or so. I decided I liked, or didn't dislike, the new eating habits, but I credited the increased physical activity for my weight/body changes. About 2 years into my life changes, I heard about and delved into the concept of intermittent fasting. I then understood. I don't have the physicality in my life anymore, but I still don't eat "breakfast" or "lunch" and I wear a size 30 waist pants and weigh less than I did in high school. I also feel as good as I have felt since I was in my twenties (I'm 59). To close, whoever sold the American public on the three meals a day dietary idea should be sued. All of the science around fasting makes way more sense.

Not sure if I understand the I.F. concept but as a young person I naturally skipped breakfast and lunch the majority of my life because I was just not that hungry. I’d eat my main meal at night and as a result stayed super slim without restricting any calories. As I’ve gotten older I’ve incorporated an hour per day of vigorous exercise routines. I’m curious how I.F. works. My daughters blood sugar levels drop when she doesn’t eat ever couple of hours whereas I can go all day without eating and feel fine. Also she eats meat whereas I’m vegan but I’m not sure that makes a difference.

I start with greens/fiber, protein, healthy carbs and then my unhealthy carbs and/or sugar if wanted. I continue to lose weight and am at maintenance right now. It’s amazing the benefits that fasting has given me in my life. I still try to eat as healthy as I can but OMAD has allowed me to eat more of what I want and would never eat throughout the day everyday. Not that I gorge on processed foods but I do allow myself to have some things I want, because this is more sustainable for me for the long haul.

Dude... I am so grateful for this episode. I've been (not with any real intent) been skipping dinner and breakfast since I was 15 or 16 just because I felt that I had more energy throughout the day if I stuck to one meal a day. And it would usually be a small and insignificant meal... (I had school and was waitressing in the evenings, needed as much energy as possible). I'm now in my 30s and over the years have been dragged into awkward conversations about why skipping breakfast or dinner is 'bad'... I never really cared about the science behind it or what people assumed about me, I just knew that I felt better and healthier. This episode just blew my mind... I realise now that I might have trained my body to certain eating window when I was a teenager because now whenever I eat more or for a longer time frame, I gain weight really quickly and my cholesterol spikes. I never knew the science behind it all so thank you for this episode...!! It's truly fascinating!

[@OP-lk4tw]

Yea I get you, I've not done that precisely but a lot of times I would feel like I had eaten enough in one day to fast more than half of the next one, and people are annoying when you just don't care for eating, some fellas have the idea that if you don't eat at least once every 4 hours your system will start to fail and your mind'll eventually fade out, and in their case it's kinda true because they never get more than 2 hours without chewing something. Anyways, this notion comes intuitively for some of us, leaving some time and space so the system can rest, not mindlessly eating just because it's 'eating time!!!' which is kinda everytime in our cultures, when our anscestors had, for the most part, to go through a lot of struggle to properly eat a regular sized meal like the ones we have at command

Please don’t ever change your way of teaching. I would’ve been a MUCH more successful student had my professors mirrored your approach. I feel like I’ve learned more in 2 1/2 hours vs all through school. Thank you!

[@pax6217]

I totally agree

The timing for this subject is perfect. I've been intermittent fasting for 8 weeks now, cant wait to dive into this topic in the Huberman lab!

[@malihemohammadi5815]

Dear Dr. Huberman, Words don't suffice how thankful I am for all your generosity in sharing your knowledge ❤❤❤

[@iulianiordache8994]

The quality of these 2,5 hours is outstanding. It took me years to even touch the subject. Thank you for this!

[@jonavin]

I’m watching this as I finish my first 100 hour fast today. For anyone just starting the journey, I’m been doing IF for 3 years. Start slow, and it does get easier to the point that you want to do more fasting because it’s easy and you feel great. I do 1 or 2 meals a day depending on how I feel and don’t fuss about it. Longer multi-day fasts once a month. I don’t worry about rules or count any calories. NAFL was cured in first three months. Good luck and good health. I actually purposely go on a long fast for an important exam, meeting, or interview. I function better.

[@brewdog3000]

Can you share weight changes? We're you working out during 100hr fast?

[@jonavin]

@@brewdog3000 I lift some weights not too much cardio, really not a lot of gym time in general but usually on these longer fasts. I dropped 4 in niches on my pants and lost 50lb. I’m no longer doing this for weight lose but general health and mental performance. It’s just easy and has become part of my life.

[@brewdog3000]

@@jonavin congrats man! I've been IFing off and on sinc 2016. But I generally only go 48hrs. It's crazy how good one can feel!. How did it effect T-levels? I've been focused on that KETO with cruciferous and complex lifts...dead lift Squatsz all for my upcoming 60th! ;)

[@jonavin]

@@brewdog3000 I only do these longer fasts once a month. I am mostly OMAD or 16/8. I don’t keep track of T levels so can’t comment on that.

So fascinated by this topic, looking forward to listening to this episode! As always, thank you Dr Huberman 💫

[@korinahoare7707]

Thank you so much Andrew. I am truly addicted to listening to all this incredible information you are sharing. So grateful for the changes I’m making in my life thanks to you. The fact you are realistic about the social aspect of meal times and provide suggestions and options for a variety of circumstances is so thorough and considerate. It’s obvious you really care about trying to help everyone 🙏

[@squarebackjedi]

Would LOVE a SERIES on autophagy. Really enjoyed this presentation. I’m Keto. It transformed my life. I think a feeding window between 2pm and 7pm works really well for me. Around two, I’ll feel much better now having things like bacon and hard boiled eggs. Otherwise, if my body feels great, I’ll just eat once a day at dinner. I’m experimenting right now by adding back berries, roasted potatoes. And, on special occasions, my wife’s homemade bread and tortillas. Thanks, Andrew.

[@moroccobama]

How have the berries and potatoes worked? I find that its nice to keep a very very light carb flame/pilot burning. BUT it’s such a slippery slope for me. Carbs skyrocket my appetite

[@monica93304]

I've done TRF and Keto. Since 1/21 up to 3/23 I"ve lost 50 lbs. At times, I've been lenient and maintained. This video is so helpful. I've sent this video to friends of mine as well. I work grave yard. So having a dark room to sleep has been so important to me. I drink yerba mate tea and that helps my food cravings at night. Love this video. I watched it a few times to reinforce my conviction with the process.

[@LTPottenger]

I just completed a 96 hour fast last night. I worked out with heavy weights, low reps, one working set every day of the fast as an experiment. No soreness or other problems, no loss in strength.

[@naturalspanish1049]

I lift when fasting but both my strenght and my endurance fall down.

[@LTPottenger]

It takes a while to get used to and if you will work out with very high volume it will cause problems. On a long fast you can work out every day with 1-2 working sets in the 5-10 rep range and recover. On the last day before you break the fast you should do more volume and this will cause lots of adaptations.

[@davidschneider6640]

How much volume, approximately, and what sort of adaptation?

[@TheGlowingOnee]

@@LTPottenger i do high volume when I’m fasting, and I’m still fine. Have been doing it for two years now

[@LTPottenger]

@fir st I find it FEELS harder, but performance is the same or even a little better, due to the adrenaline. The strength anyway. I would not try doing german volume training while fasted or anything like that.

Thank you Dr. Huberman. I'm a 64 year old with a 15 yr history of RA. I'm an IF newbie and welcome the opportunity to repair my body. 🤞🏻Appreciate you and your podcast.

do not give up! IF is a great medicinal tool that we prescribe to all our chronic patients!!

[@misivg]

I am so grateful to you for these podcasts, Dr.Huberman. I have been doing omada and intermittent fasting for the past 7 months, and lately I have not been as regimented as I was and I am not currently losing weght. Your info has been very helpful! If you didn't provide your podcast on You Tube, I have no idea of how I would learn all of this. I feel like you are helping to make a significant improvement in my health and life. Now I will be more consistent, taking into consideration the time I eat and stop eating. Thank you again!!!!

Huberman is the man! We interested in optimizing our physiological processes really can be glad to be able to listen to him. Please never stop to bring these important topics to us.

[@pavan151]

Great and very useful video. I always did fasting on and off with 16:8 and 18:6 in the past year. I recently decided to get on 20:4 schedule and it has been amazing. Lost 4kgs the first week. It feels like I can stick to this better than the other schedules because I get all the macros I need and I have good energy for the remainder of the day.

[@dvgecko89]

Thank you Dr Huberman, thank you for undertaking this critical role, consciously or not. What you are doing here is literally liberating so many people and teaching them how to optimize themselves and I truly believe that these kinds of programs will change the course of humanity. The ripple effects of these podcasts will reach many more people once this knowledge is implemented, over time seen and then inspire. People are going to ask, what have you been doing different? And what I’ll do is redirect them to this podcast! Thank you again and as the above person quoted “This IS the way”

[@memastarful]

Amen

[@MsAlonzo26]

I'm here for the science delivered in story format :)

[@metabolic_jam]

What an incredible privilege to listen to one of the top professors distilling the literature by citing the top tier research from people who also happen to be his friends. All this for Free! Public educators like Andrew Huberman and others like Rhonda Patrick, Robert Lustig, Peter Atia are a gift in an increasingly unhealthy country where public health officials and especially the institutions have failed in their responsibility towards the citizens.

[@DrStratComm]

As a science communicator myself, I find Dr. Huberman’s effective science communication and public service to be a master class in how those who may not necessarily have social science or communication backgrounds can be trustworthy sources of crucial information that directly helps people make healthier decisions and choices.

[@RitikPareek]

This is perhaps the best video I have ever watched on Intermittent Fasting/Time restricted feeding.
