Dr. Jason Fung on combining #fasting with any diet

Dr. Jason Fung completed medical school and internal medicine at the University of Toronto before finishing his nephrology fellowship at the University of California, Los Angeles at the Cedars-Sinai hospital.

He now has a practice in Ontario, Canada where he uses his Intensive Dietary Management program to help all sorts of patients, but especially those suffering from the two big epidemics of modern times: obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Dr. Fung saved my life and I can’t begin to express how grateful I am to have found him

[anjalik]

Such a witty manner in which he conveys the importance of fasting 👌

Awesome fasting doesn't depend on your diet or lifestyle completely but on your will power.

Im 63. Just finished a 6 day water fast. I felt great! I need to lose 45 pounds. I plan on a week long fast once a month with ‘the amazing liver & gallbladder flush’ by Andreas Moritz two weeks later. Been doing that flush for a loooong time due to Taco Bell (soda line) bleach poisoning many decades ago. Been intermittent fasting for 3 years. I’m grateful for the internet and voices like Dr.Fung to spread knowledge ❤️

I told my wife I would rather fast than do a cheat day

When you're low carb fasting is so easy but it actually mimicks fasting

Fasting in the month of Ramadan is a great spiritual experience. We are expected to practice and rewire controlling our desires, love, and never ending hunger for food. But the key is to learn to eat healthy food. But unfortunately the essence of the month is not practiced in its true spirit. A lot of People on the contrary indulge in feasting this month and never benefit from fasting. Cutting one's desires takes some level of spiritual enlightenment and an understanding that desires have no limit and that no matter what we consume our desires will never be satisfied. The day we stop listening to our taste buds, we will reclaim moderation, satisfaction, fulfillment and health.

I could not decipher that last sentence: "It's almost impossible to (...)". Impossible to ... what?

[donnyrichard]

If try 14 day fast any tips to make sure I dont damage health?

[Joyce-foto]

I used to do IF but having trouble, how to combat cravings.

[doddgarger]

I think fasting is something keto people are missing along with exercise and maybe even sauna Dr Omara comes to mind

[donnyrichard]
