My grandparents who were farmers in a southeast asian village ate white rice/glutinous rice 3 x a day. They were very lean and lived close to 100 w no chronic illnesses. There was no money for or shops selling processed food in the village. They ate alot of carbs but eveything they ate were either grown, caught or forraged by their very 2 hands.

[@shelleysanders9666]

Their huge amount of exercise would have used up the carbs’ sugar-element: in our modern times we take nowhere near as much exercise (& even modern farmers use tractors/machinery a lot unlike those 50 yrs ago who did more manual work)

[@wednesdayschild3627]

I bet they didn't eat rice by itself. I bet they ate that with vegetables, and sauces.

We have created the “processed & packaged food” problem and now trying to solve it in various ways instead of going back to those better ways of living. The industry must win, we humans we keep playing this catch up game.

[@A.P.Garland]

​@KyooriousDesi I agree. The 'problem' we created by processing and packaging food is also a solution for mass producing, long easy storage, and shipping easily to provide quick and easy food supplies around the world to starving populations. This was really helpful during and after world war 2. Problem is, we all rely on this processed food too much. It's so easy to buy and store.

Thanks for your explanation. I had a debate with a friend who major in nutrition. She believes that as long as all the food is consumed in moderation, they would be fine, and balancing each other, there is no really such foods as the best or healthiest foods. I am on keto and believe that certain foods are in fact better than the others in terms of certain purpose such as losing weight.

[@manisthemeasure2205]

I do Intermittent Fasting. It’s a system where you choose an eight hour period to do all your eating with, at least, about 4 hours minimum before bedtime. In other words you have to go to bed almost hungry. The results are incredible. Your body functions revert to what they were when you were young, testosterone levels shoot up and your system seems like it’s doing its own housekeeping, conserving tons of energy.

@@wildfood1 The other thing I notice is that I dream almost every night and I remember a lot of the dreams even after waking.

I certainly hope it is the latter 😊

Knowing what to cook, the choice of ingredients, etc, so I am taking the migration to low carb slowly. I eat breakfast at around 8 am and then lunch at 1 pm. This is working well for me. I used to feel a bit hungry in the evenings for the first two weeks (for a short period of 30 mins or so) but a green tea or lemon with salt and water helped ease the pangs. Don’t feel hungry in the evening anymore and I have been able to even resume my evening run of about 5k even while fasting. I take care to run very slowly though so that I can burn the fat.

This video is full of important information. It is in my top 10 of “wake up call” videos. Dr. Jason Fung is a true educator! Full of knowledge along with wisdom in helping us make the right choices. 🥰

[@jeffreyjohnson7359]

I don't care that Berg is a chiropractor or a scientologist or has a store. I think he has great free advice on keto and intermittent fasting. I like that he emphasizes vegetables, unlike, say Berry, who advocates carnivore. He has excellent detailed videos on keto IF eating plans. I watched him for a long time without knowing he sold products, because he rarely mentions it. One thing I don't like is his stance on vaccines, but you have to separate the wheat from the chaff. He also did an excellent interview with Dr. Fung.

He is ok just verify everything from all sources.

[@weekendgrl]

Thank you so much for all of your amazing information Dr. Fung. Since I started following you, Dr. Berg and Dr. Jamnadas, I am finally able to lose weight gained in the past few years and after knee replacement surgery. After trying EVERY plan imaginable, I started IF at the beginning of October, 2023. Fast forward to now, I have lost 12 lbs., going from 200 lbs. to 188. I am a 55 year old female who is going through menopause. I fast 16-18 hours per day and eat two meals a day without snacking, which means I'm also fasting in between meals. My goal weight is 165 so 23 lbs. to go. I am struggling with not getting enough fiber while attempting to eat low carb, as evidenced by bathroom trips. Adding legumes and lentils as you suggest in this video will help me tremendously. I'm in this for the marathon as opposed to a sprint. Thank you again!!!!

[@mc7685]

Dr Jason, Please also consider complex carbs without added fats such as potatotes, brown rice, lentiles, leguems, whole foods plants based diet. Carbs can mean different thing to different people can have a 360 degree different outcome.

What will you eat after fasting? I regained the fluid in the cells very quickly on refeeding. So the fasting loss doesn't last. Followed up with keto as my go to diet usually but then I miss pasta, potato and ice cream. So lose the plot, then binge with guilt, terrible cycle. Also dieting following fasting is too much hard work and too much omitting of favourite foods. My longest fast was 16 days but I get cardiac arrhythmia each time I fast. The last time after 5 days landed in hospital. My doctor will not support my practising this although I loved it. Did it for autophagy. I gave up fasting this year and changed to doing omad 22/2 giving me a 2 hour eating window. I also decided to eat carbs and anything I wanted in that time including fry ups and desserts. Surprisingly this has allowed a slow steady loss..... 6 kg over the last 3 months. It's not hard to do since I'm not missing anything or focusing on what I 'can't' eat. Doctor also supports this, thankfully. I'm much happier and while weightloss is super slow it is never the less loss. Can have my donut and eat it to. Ha ha. Anyway all the best on finding what works for you.

[@Amanda-v8k6t]

@@nonacee5065 Stick with Keto, a lot of veggies with moderate amount of meat. My weight usually comes back 0.5-1lbs after the first meal; I continue the following days with omad and the scale will come down again. Hope this helps.

[@kalyanishridhar2184]

Dr. Jason Fung is my favorite doctor, if eat lentils with a dollop of butter and vegetables, without any other carb in my, sugar spikes are minimal. Just don’t overload on them if you sprout lentils with skin like mung the carb reduces further. So glad that Dr Fung gives a green light on this. What a kind soul he is to help so many people with metabolic issues. May god bless him❤️❤️

We do high fat (health fats, no refined cooking oils) low carb, moderate protein, moderate exercise, no added sugars and no processed foods. A lot of homemade meals and 16:8 minimum of daily intermittent fasting. We love Dr. Fung, Dr. Berg, Dr. Ekberg and Dr. Lustig.

I know it may sounds redundant. Thank you Doctor !! Three years ago I found your book. I was in pretty bad shape “type 2” and very depressed. It was like a light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Now I’m off all meds and feeling amazing !! You were such a big part !! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! 😁

[@amandavirsila5594]

Dr. Fung, thank you so very much for changing my life forever! And thank you for putting all of this info out into the universe with absolutely no agenda. You are such a treasure!

[@Sforzatheforcer]

The truth will out! Big media, big government, corporate food processors, and the pharmaceutical industry have billions of dollars to promote their cheap processed carbohydrates because they are making billions of dollars from the peoples’ addiction to sugar and starches. Big medicine is complicit because they make billions treating but never curing diabetes.

[@duvessa2003]

You said it, Sister! That’s why I love Dr. Fung, the lack of agenda.

[@Sforzatheforcer]

@@duvessa2003 Dr. Fung has an obvious agenda. It’s to help people reverse insulin resistance and obesity naturally without using drugs or surgery. He is not afraid to buck the medical establishment in order to help sick people. Thank God for doctors like Dr. Fung!

[@PSA78]

@@Sforzatheforcer If that was his real agenda, then why doesn't he tell the whole truth and stop lying? For instance, insulin resistance comes from overweight, so any diet that creates calories deficit will have the exact same effect. 🤷‍♂️

[@Sforzatheforcer]

@@PSA78 If you don’t want to come off as a Dr. Fung obsessed crank, read his book, The Obesity Code. He explains his ideas very clearly. Read to try to understand, rather than with the negative and antagonist attitude that you clearly have about the man. Did he steal your girlfriend when you were both in college? Because your attitude is obviously based on some emotional hang up with Dr. Fung than it is about fasting. Dr. Fung is a doctor he’s going to be OK, even if you spend the rest of the your life spreading your calumny about him. You, on the other hand, don’t seem to be happy.

[@howiesfunware]

Perfect video for understanding carbs and how to navigate them depending on your specific needs and goals at the time.

[@dr.mofongo9001]

I always look forward to Dr. Fung dropping knowledge. This particular video reminded me of the teachings of another fellow physician, Dr. William Davis, who is famous for the “Wheat Belly” diet. His argument, the wheat of today is not the wheat our ancestors ate, which ties in to the point Dr. Fung made in the beginning of the video as to why we didn’t see the same issues with weight back in the day while eating some of the same foods. I’ve always tried whenever possible to stick to single ingredient, natural foods vs. processed, despite what the carb content is. Enjoyed the rest of the breakdown as well from Dr. Fung. Very informative.

[@sarahkanagwa5696]

Please continue to teach about diabetes

[@kalyanishridhar2184]

Love Dr. Jason. He doesn’t tell what not to eat . By informing us of how food impacts you, you can make an informed decision.

[@RobertHeaslip]

This is Dr. Jason Fung's best video yet. Dr. Fung is a physician from North York Ontario. I was referred to his videos by another Dr. in Guelph Ont. Anyone trying to lose weight should watch this video. I should like to point out that the fructose he refers to causes fatty liver and in large amounts is just as bad as alcohol. Watch out for processed food it's loaded with fructose.

[@Sunnahiman]

Dr Fong you're so amazing, you make learning about intermittent fasting and understanding carbohydrates so easy. You're my favorite educator on this topic.

As a nephrologist, you know that the presence of oxalates in some of the most healthful veggies are a no-no for "stoners," i.e. kidney stone producers, such as I am. 😕 It's a challenge to balance veggies, dairy, meats also since I apparently produce uric acid stones too. In some ways, I suppose, just the less food for my kidneys to have to deal with, the better.

[@lynnemartin6938]

. Having been on a number of diets in the past, I've heard of other starchy vegetables to be aware of. Wondering if you'd mind giving your thought on that claim as well. - the claim: roots and seeds contain energy for plant regeneration and growth in the form of sugars and starches, therefore, limit intake of carrots, potatoes, beets, etc (roots) as well as corn, peas, legumes, nuts, etc (seeds). Many thanks on your work & teaching on time restricted eating. Combining this pattern of eating with low carb intake has finally given me the success I've worked on (unsuccessfully) for decades.

[@omadoutlaw4868]

Not all nuts are high in carbohydrates, in fact most nuts are low in carbs and high in fat.🤠

[@edwigcarol4888]

Excellent. If I could only recommend this to all these german speaking young women, struggling with dieting. Nevertheless allow me to correct your statement on beans and lentils. They are starchy. But the starch is amylopectine C while the usual starch is amylopectine A. The C typ is difficult to break down by our amylase: far slower digestion. I put that in practice by only eating little (40 g cooked mass) of the amylopectine C group and none ever from the A group (but my biology is such that my insuline is "very nervous" more than average). Leafy greens are the king of my diet: colour, taste, texture, mood enhancing and a fantastic substrate for edle fats and oils. Dieting is fun.

[@TheRichardArmstrong]

Wait leveling up! The background 🤩

[@robinthornhill2]

YOU ARE THE BEST. I love your balanced approach to eating. I feel better when I include non-starchy carbs in my diet. I hear so much misinformation on what to eat these days. I know God didn't make lettuce and berries to be avoided. Thank God!
