Dr. Jason Fung: To Lose Weight, You MUST control Insulin

Dr. Jason Fung explains why Calories in calories out isn't nearly as important as controlling insulin when it comes to weight loss.

Dr. Fung is intelligent no doubt, but what I really like about him is his ability to keep it simple.

[drmeherprasanna]

Being a doctor myself I followed your diet and changed my eating habits low carb high fat and protein not only did I lose weight got healthier even could control diabetes. Brilliant reasoning, Intelligent thinking Dr Jason.

It is not about having knowledge, it is about being able to transfer it to others, I like this guy.

I need to add another comment. The food industry DOES NOT MAKE MONEY OFF OF FASTING!!! nor, does the pharmaceutical industry. When, "they tell me to go left, I am going right". Thank you Doctor Fung for a way of living that is healing.

Reduced my sugar intake to less than 10 grams/day. Combined it with resistance training (3 times per week) and I eat a bit less carbs and fat, but more protein intake to gain muscle mass. Lost my belly and I look damn fit. This happened in 3 months time.

I feel like crying each time I see this man. It hurts to have spent lots of time n money doing the wrong things n same time really heart touching to know the little right thing to do. I can't believe my weight loss in three months. I'm soooo grateful. I've made others around me listen to him too.

I teach English and I appreciate his ability to really say things simplisticly, Believe it or not, that is a very hard skill to master.

[raymond]

That fridge and freezer analogy really rings the bell! Perfection!

[mohitchauhan]

He explained it so well, entire YouTube fitness icons couldn’t

I am 74 YO and began the 18/6 fast at the beginning of this year and find it so easy to perform. No counting calories or special, expensive foods. Have lost about 1/2 pound per day. Tried going on a 48 hour fast and was successful, so may add it periodically.

I try to get in a 3 to 5 mile walk in every day, as well. The key is PATIENCE. If I can maintain this fat burning rate, I am looking forward to warmer weather and biking season and will see how that goes.

He is so clear on how things work, easy to follow. He's made a difference in my understanding, great educator!

IF YOU DONT FIND TIME TO CARE FOR YOUR HEALTH THEN, AT SOME POINT, YOU’LL HAVE TO FIND TIME TO TREAT YOUR DISEASE.

This video was the one that opened my eyes, changed my life, over a year ago. After watching this, and subsequently "Fasting as a Therapeutic Option for Weight Loss" I looked my wife in the eye and said "I finally understand. I'm going to lose weight and keep it off, I will never be overweight again" That was over a year ago and I am finally, for the first time since I was a young child, I feel healthy. I'd managed to lose weight before but never felt healthy and never kept it off until now.

*Intermittent Fasting + Low Carb (and very low to no sugar) is KEY to weight loss!* I lost 100lbs only eating red meat, salmon, eggs, berries, Kefir and cooking in extra virgin olive oil and beef tallow. I have never felt better in my life. Protein and Carbs triggers insulin, whereas fat doesn’t. Hence, a high fat low carb won’t store anywhere near as much fat.

Intermittent fasting, keto and eating 1500kcal a day helped me lose over 100lbs

the answer - low carb (more fat), intermittent fasting

This video may have saved my life, thank you for explaining so clearly what so many drs. have failed to.

[elizabethl.alanis]

Been on keto fasting and IMF and feeling so much more energy!! Laser focused!! And yes weight lose. But I would do it just for the energy and focus

[lugs]

I did 16/8 intermittent fasting and finally I'm no longer insulin resistant :D. My insulin levels were constantly high for years, and took me 5-6 months of IF to finally control that goddamn hormone! I can't describe how happy I am ;_; <3

Quick Talks: Dr. Fung is one of the best advocates for Intermittent Fasting and very low carb diets (mainly Keto). However, I simply don't have time to watch his 30-120 minute videos. I deeply appreciate your edited summary of one of his main topics, insulin and insulin resistance... I will watch this several times to let it sink in... much better approach for many people, I hope Dr. Fung reads this.
