[@Gerald-kc8gd]

Dr. Fung, you likely greatly extended my life possibly even saved my life. 9 months ago, I had no idea what Diabetes truly was I was treating the symptoms and even though I thought I was doing well after two years of "treatment" I got my highest A1C ever 11.8. I was crushed I found your channel and you helped me understand insulin resistance and the tragic short comings of my Doctors and the knowledge the provided me. I began to treat my insulin resistance with a low carb high fat diet, intermittent fasting and some prolonged fasts . I was able to stop injecting myself with insulin almost immediately, within four months without medication my A1c was down to 6.8 and now I'm a 5.5. I have lost 90 lbs in 8 months and I feel like I am in control of my life again. Thank you for taking the time to explain this to the world. My wife and Children thank you

Dr Fung continues to inform the public how to improve their health by understanding basic physiology.

[@got_logic1320]

Actually, no. Fung's interpretation of physiology and biochemistry is absolute trash. It's just that cutting out carbs and IF happens to produce a net energy deficit so people will lose weight, and thereby reverse health problems associated with being overweight. So It's great that people have lost weight due to his videos... but it's not for the primary reasons he's preaching. Anyone who has actually studied biochemistry and physiology will know the he's cherry picking information to push his narrative, which is to demonize carbs and sell his products. Take everything he says with a grain of salt. If people are actually interested in learning about Physiology and BioChemistry, pick up books... not listen to youtube as your primary source of information. If Keto and IF works for you, fantastic. Keep it up. But he is not providing accurate education on the subject of Physiology. There is NOTHING wrong with Carbs for the average person who doesn't have medical conditions relating to insulin resistance.

@@got_logic1320 Ok bro, have fun staying fat 😂👌

[@nickplaysmyteam8394]

@@got_logic1320 Yeah it's just about too many carbs per day. Right?

[@got_logic1320]

@@nickplaysmyteam8394 It's all relative. There is no One-Model-Fits-All. Someone with specific medical issues to insulin resistance would benefit from controlled intake of carbs. A bodybuilder/athlete or active person shouldn't have any issues with carbs when they're that active. An overweight person trying to lose weight would need to watch the amount of anything they eat, not just carbs, if the intention is to lose weight. A famished North Korean citizen who might have more access to cheap carb sources (like rice) won't need to watch what they eat, they just need to eat. There is no innate problem with carbs for a relatively healthy person, with no issues to insulin or any kind of other allergic reactions to specific carb sources. But just like Everything, just don't overdo it. You can die from drinking too much water, so it's all relative. And just to throw it out there, because there's so much misconception... Carbs by itself does not make a healthy person diabetic. There are other factors that contribute to Type 2 diabetes.

[@kentong2033]

@@got_logic1320 I think ur completely missing the point. Dr. Fung isn't 'demonizing' anything. He's not claiming healthy active people will develop insulin resistance/Type II diabetes from carbohydrate consumption. He addresses how patients can reverse Type II diabetes naturally thru: 1. Elimination/reduction of excess sugars, high carbohydrate, processed n fast foods that elevate serum insulin levels leading to chronic insulin resistance 2. Intermittent fasting - one meal a day (OMAD) as a natural n safe way to use fat stores for energy, lowering serum insulin levels reversing chronic insulin resistance 3. Maintain a low carb diet higher in natural fats and proteins from whole unprocessed foods n exercise for healthy lifestyle The results speak for themselves. His years of clinical research, data, n physiological biochemical mechanism of insulin resistance is very sound - this coming from a Biochemist/Cell Biologist myself. Read his books and/or see some of his longer form presentations on his clinical research. He explains in clear detail the physiological pathways for obesity/insulin resistance and how to naturally reverse those pathologies.

@@Oneworld1984 yes but that happens to everyone even non diabetics. He does not eat a lot of carbs mostly protein, fats and vegetables. This minimizes the blood sugar spike. It took a couple of months to see the results because his body has become more sensitive to insulin. It really works it just hard because of the sugar cravings but they go away eventually.

Dr Fung is a genius on the subject and a true life saver... his videos helped me to reverse my heavy level T2D just in 3 months.... and off it (i.e.,; no medication) for over 2 years now... Bring HBA1c from 104 to mid 30s in 3 month... and ever since it varies between 28 to 37. Thank you Dr. Fung...

[@tomdehen]

Would you mind sharing specifically how you did that? I would appreciate your story because I am struggling with this. Thank you.

[@hassanbilal1942]

Hi Tom, I came across to Dr. Fung 1st time in my life on 1st of June 2020, after my HBA1C reached over 100 first time on 31st of May 2020 (104 to be exact). When my normal doctors in the UK told me that its heavy duty T2 now and it is only progressive from here... first we manage you via Metformin and if things got worsen you will be on Insulin. I was also 120 kgs weight at that point. Then I researched about T2 on internet and thank God I came across to Father on the subject on the very 1st day of internet research.... it was no other than the GREAT DR JASON FUNG saying in one of his videos that it is totally reversable condition... that even made my wife a laugh... I said to her o.k. at least let me try.... I started strict and disciplined Intermettent Fasting from 1st of June 2020. Started with 14 hours fast with 10 hours of eating window during 1st 10 days. No carb eating in 10 hours... and strictly no sugar and no soda or juices. Only whole fruit, any kind of meat (beef, chicken or lamb / mutton but no pork). A lot of salad with mix of vegetables. And 5km walking on daily basis (roughly taking me 1 hr in walk). After 10 days I increased it to 16 hr to 8 hrs. With 5km walk continues daily. Next 10 days (21 June to 30 June); 18 hr to 6 hr pattern. With 5km walk continue. 1st July to 15 July .... 20 Hr to 4 Hr pattern. With 5km walk continue. 16th July to 31st July back to 18hr to 6 hr window. In August it was alternative days of 18 to 6 hrs of fasting and OMAD (one meal a day... (i.e., 24 hrs Intermettent Fasting). In August 15 days of OMAD and remaining 15 days of 18 to 6. All 90 days kept walking 5km a day minimum... sometimes 6 to 7km. In all 90 days no sugar, no soda, no bread, no rice.... a lots of meat... a lots of stakes... a lots of salad... a lots of whole fruits... all kinds.... occasionally couple of dates for my sweet tooth. And on 1st of Sept when I tested my HBA1C it was 35. My GP in UK was on his toes as he couldn't believe it and started asking me what I have done.... you know what I said to him (in my heart).... Go idiot... park your old school approach and books which have thought you to tell your patients that it is a progressive decease and there is no long term cure. Go and listen to the GOD on the subject... the greatest of all... THE DR JASON FUNG.... and he will tell you that some medical books needs rewriting. If someone treats you with medication (tablets or injections)... to me that is not medicine (i.e. medical practice or knowleadge). However, if someone treats you and makes you perfectly healthy without giving you medication but by only making you understand the basic physiology of the body... NOW THAT IS MEDICINE.

Past few years I've found out I'm pre diabetes and I did have a fatty liver. After learning on social media how to care for myself and now don't have a fatty liver & I'm now educating my 13 year old son. He's one of the few healthy looking kid's at his school. He drinks only water and has very little junk food.. I dont understand the school system that priorities other things that I won't name over kid's health. I know it's really up to the parents but obviously they're none the wiser as well..

[@95Ldunc]

I once was a class chaperone for a field trip for my Daughter’s elementary school. I saw this little girl (not overweight) that she was sitting next to pull out her lunch. Her lunch box contained ham and cheese on white bread, chips, a Devil Dog, the candy sticks that you dip in colored sugar and lastly Hawaiian Punch. I wondered to myself how much sugar was contained in just that one meal? That was just lunch. What do her parents feed her for breakfast, for an after school snack, for dinner, for dessert? How do any of these kids even have a chance of living a healthy life when their parents feed them nothing but processed junk daily?

I had initially lost 36 lbs this year (since Feb) doing a lot of exercise and also 18:6 IF with several OMAD days and low carb (def. not keto....more like Adkins as far as the protein and carb %). I eventually stopped losing weight. I'm thinking after a while my BMR slowed down....in fact I'm certain of it. I'm going to start eating breakfast again once in a while to mix things up and see if that helps. Curious if others have had this same issue.

@@keithzastrow Yes, I do 16:8 and "Atkins" style low carb. It took me about 8 months to lose 20 lbs, and I have not lost additional weight for about 2 months now.

[@shankar4330]

I couldn't thank this doctor more. When all the texts claimed there are no "cure" for diabetics but high dises of insulin shots, his recommendation of intermittent fasting and low carb diet gave me a ray of hope. My vision was blurry, excessive sweating, hangry that never subsided, neuropathy in my hand and feet and degrading cognitive quality. By following intermittent fasting with no snacking and mild cardio, I could already witness the improvement with my TG going down, losing all the belly fat, my energy levels going up and my mid meal hunger going down. His theory on insulin and insulin resistance was an eye opener for me, and changed the way i eat. Adding little more effort like weight training and long fasting i managed to bring down my a1c from 11.9 to 5.5 in 3 months. My fasting too went down from 291 to 110s. Insulin levels too look fine. Looking forward to continue the effort bring the levels further down to 90s. If you're a newly diagnosed with t2 or have just got tired with the standard procedure care, do yourself some favour and listen to this man. Come out of High CarbHigh-Insulin-High Blood Glucose circle lf death. You will never be able to improve with drugs. Dietary carb restriction, mild excercise and fasting are the only tools you've got.

Like Dr. Fung, I am a “why” person. I believe there is a reason for everything. I need to know the why. I also believe that what I know this moment could be completely wrong. To me, knowledge is based on the best factual information in my possession. Fifty years ago I tried to tell my doctor I was experiencing massive blood glucose excursions caused by hyper insulin secretion. He (tried to) told me there is no such thing, that type 2 diabetes only affects old people. Over the past few years I have connected most of the dots. But after reading The Diabetes Code, I finally have the answers I have long been seeking. Most important, Dr. Fung has given me HOPE. I am at a loss for words to thank Dr. Fung.

Fantastic explanation, concise, and easy to understand.

[@380.motorsports]

A most logical and excellent way to think about this problem. This video info will help me when talking to friends and family.

[@gerrym-cat7119]

That’s a more practical way of looking at the problem. Makes sense.

[@LeoTaxilFrance]

Many thanks for enlightening with general, fundamental issues explaining important common problems! I knew what I.R. was, but I have not been aware, that it was a quite natural reaction of a body.

I have been watching your videos and have been doing IF and keto for awhile with good benefit. Bloodwork improved, fatty liver gone, etc. for some reason though, today I decided to get a DQ blizzard ( never had one before), get the Oreo one with the fudge in the middle . As I’m eating this, you’re words of hyper insulin Emma are going through my head and you say are bodies aren’t stupid which is true but today, my mind was clearly stupid. I barely ate half of the blizzard my taste has changed, it was sickly sweet and now I have visions of glucose molecules going into my liver! I have Blizzard remorse. Tonight is not going to be fun with the sugar spike and crash. Lesson learned- shall carry on tomorrow back yo keto and IF.

☺️ Time for a 48 hr. fast ...

[@Trav-rs2lz]

Did IF and KETO completely cure or just partially cure your Diabetes and Insulin Resistance ?

[@cmdm3788]

You’re the best Dr Fung! Just bought your new cookbook and anxious to try out these recipes. The photos are beautiful and the recipes sound simple and delicious.

[@bhuveekolanji4021]

Hi Dr. Jason Fung! Hope yu r doing great. I benefited a lot from intermittent fasting fr the last few months. You hav enlightened me with this magical fasting method. My age s 31 and doing fasting really helps me but some other researchers and doctors are talking about varying fasting hours at various stages of menstrual cycle and Ovulution. So confused now..Pls can you do a detailed video on that ? To help us all through ur valuable knowledge.. pls do consider my obligation.

I've given up smoking 13yrs ago, alcohol 18mths ago, now time to focus on carbs. Been Intermittent Fasting for 4yrs, love it, but have not experienced significant weight loss...now this last 6 months have put on 20lbs. It must be carbs...the more I try to lower my intake, the more I crave them. I'm about to give up....I feel broken.

My A1C is 8 but i have been IF (16-18 hours) since december without medication only supplement. I got my lab result today and it was 8. I feel better now than before in medication. 🥴

[@Merzui-kg8ds]

I have done everything to combat insulin resistance: low carb, whole foods, cut out processed foods, no seed oils, intermittent fasting, walking after meals, vastly improved sleep via CBT-I, lost 20 pounds, no alcohol consumption. I would not change a thing about all of that. Sadly, I have not reversed insulin resistance. I have to look at it as: I very, very likely halted the march into full Type 2.

[@shadhnakhan6040]

Thank you for your explanation of why we have pre-diabetes and eventually diabetes.This means the myth that people have diabetes because pancease no longer produce insulin and that's why we have to take insulin manually.Not realizing the root cause which you Dr Fung clarified. I had followed your advise with my diet.Acually my blood sugar after eating 2hrs was about 12-14mmols but now it's between 6.5-8.but I am on Vildagliptin 50mg bd.It seems a time will come I have to stop my medication and sticked to diet and reversed my diabetes. Thank you Dr for saving me from complications. May Almighty bless you.

[@duanebartlett4885]

Thanks so much Dr. Fung!.., as always you are so very informative and your research is now saving my life as well as 1000s of others I'm sure. Can you explain why some people develop insulin resistance and others don't even if their diets are similar?

I just followed one guru thats Jason and I was pessimist at beginning cause I was not losing weight for 40 days and I thought why it's not working but after day 50 suddenly there is tremendous success in losing weight and I lost 4 inches of waist from 39 to 35. And before I needed always blanket but now I have much heat and I don't feel cold anymore in normal temperature
