I was diagnosed with psoriatc arthritis and I was determined to stop taking meds for it (they were killing my liver) I went on an anti-inflammatory diet, and started going to a local pool exercise class. And I began intermittent fasting. In a little over a year I lost 100 pounds, healed fatty liver and pre-diabetes, lowered my bp, cholesterol and triglycerides and put psoriatc arthritis into check. My last labs were completely normal, rheumatoid factor was undetectable 👍

This was a fantastic podcast. I took 3 pages of notes. Dr. Li does an excellent job of explaining metabolism and keeping it simple. I think we all pretty much know what we need to do, but Dr. Li explains the scientific reasons of why. One of my favorite things he said is that we don’t have to go all in; to just start to ease up and the body will self-correct. Other key takeaways: Fast for 12 hours, reduce processed foods, eat slow and stop eating when satisfied, eat fat-burning foods, get 7-8 hours of quality sleep, manage stress, and walk 30 minutes daily. Just got the book on kindle and i can’t wait to read it. Thank you so much!!!

I have been intermittent fasting since I was a child and now I'm 40. This was not even on purpose, like it is for most people today. It is naturally how my body functions. Most of my life people made me feel bad for not eating breakfast, but I just don't enjoy eating in the morning until I've been awake for several hours.

I only watched Dr Li’s video yesterday and I watched again today. I really like what he told us. I can really learn a lot from his video. I will watch more.
I am 85 years old but look 50-60 and feel like that too. I can sleep 7-8 solid hours every night, can walk like in the 50’s, and have very good appetite. I am a Christian and I have got God’s Peace and Happiness
So I am happy every day and I am still working.
Thank you Dr Li for I have learned a lot from your talk and really enjoyed listening to your talk.

I started eating less, eating less often, and eating whole foods about 6 months ago. I have felt better, slept better, and lost some weight. I was surprised about the weight. I just wanted to heal my body. This method is working.... very well.

I’m desperate. Not living, just existing. This is exactly the content I needed to see. Thank you both so much. Absolutely agree on the internal work. I’m on my way to buy this book. I need guidance.

[YOURRAINBOWBRIDGE]

THE LATTER HALF OF THIS VIDEO WAS THE BEST AND MOST INTERESTING

[TheCgmullen]

I have both your books and they have been a life saver for everyone in my family. I see all food and my entire body completely different. I have been doing this for a year now and there is no way I would go back to the way that led to cancer. Thank you so much for all you do.

[margaretlouis]

Thank you Dr Li for putting back power in our hands over our health !

[shylajagat]

This podcast is simply wonderful. An eye opener. The reasons on why one must allow a few hours gap after eating and before sleeping, when to resume eating, allowing the body metabolosm to do its job and more info about metabolism, analogy of quality of fuel in the tank and lastly the all or nothing approach-all points are eye openers for me. Not that I havent heard them before, but the manner in which Dr. Li explained it is so simple and profound in its effect. Thank you for this valuable podcast🙏👍

[amiesmith]

Wealth of info that’s free of charge! So appreciated!

[nazeeniranfar]

Dr. Lee is a great speaker and scientist 🙌 I always enjoy listening to his pearls of wisdom and he is so generous with all the information that he shares with us 🙌 I am very grateful for all that he does ❤

[aliasgirl]

That last part and the end of the interview about fast food was a seriously good shift of perspective!!! You should clip that somehow. I think it would give people encouragement to keep going.😊

[leslieg]

Thank You for also touching on Sleep, Stress, etc.
