Rice vs Chapathi? | Which is better in the fasting method | Dr Pal

Insulin loves fasting as it doesn’t have to do any work.
And if you eat foods rich in fiber and include complex carbs in small amounts, insulin will worship you.

Have been practicing intermittent fasting for 12 hrs dedicatedly for past 5 weeks and have definitely lost 2 kg...thanks Dr. Pal for this. I have also recommended your videos to several people. I generally eat less during dinner time so it was easier for me to practise this 12hrs fasting without any issues that you had mentioned in your videos. Maybe those facing difficulties to fast for 12hrs could switch to eating less during dinner for few weeks and then try the 12 hrs fasting. Really feeling blessed to have doctors like you who help to have a healthy society. kudos to your dedication Dr. Pal

You are a good Doctor with good sense of humor. I was smiling ear 2 ear looking at your video.

[madhumayeethailam]

Thank you Dr.Pal for making such enlightening videos

Your videos are helping me to improve my health literacy and motivating me to continue with my intermittent fasting.
I have been consistently doing intermittent fasting for the last 2years and got my HbA1c to 4.9%, fatty liver disappeared 😊

You are doing amazing job sir

I am a CDE and CDM nurse, it would be nice if you made educational videos on autoimmune diseases aswell sir

Sir, do you conduct any preventative health work shops in a primary health care setup?through zoom, Because I work in a GP clinic in Adelaide, Australia, so I am wondering if we could organise one for all of my other colleagues aswell

Thank you

Sir I also followed 2 chapati of fulka..no oil for dinner. Very interesting and useful thanks Dr.

[veenasudha]

Rice is way better, also to avoid gluten. Can you explain that too in a video for my mom. By the way, I follow the pazhaya soru in morning for twice a week, and my hb levels were so good, I was able to donate blood for the first time in life, always I got rejected for low hb or low BP. Thank you so much for this concept

I try to do the warrior diet. 20 hours fasting and 4 hr window. I'm easily losing 1 to 2 kgs a week

[kazuto]

And here i thaught that Chapti is full of fiber carbs which does not digested and hence no glucose is added to my body, I quitted rice ages ago now i will do the same for chapti too(but i will take raw Veggies and fruits)... Time for keto diet and hard workouts.

[jaypanicker]

Dr Pal……The way you explain the concept is simply great….

[prajju]

I would recommend eating rice because chapati is very bad for our intestines. A research had been conducted which suggested that it would take months and even weeks for the chapati to get digested and come out. plus glutten gets binded to our intestines and cause diseases like IBS, chron's for those who have gluten intolerance. I had similar issues, I am very fond of chapati but whenever I used to eat it the next day I would feel constipated, lot of gassiness, bloating, nausea. But after shifting to rice, my symptoms disappeared.

I love your humor combined with helpful facts.

[amolairoli]

we in Maharashtra dont eat both rice or chapati...we eat jowar bhakri throughout the year bajra bhari in winter and nachni bhakri sporadically for variations...for protein we eat loads of lentils like moth moong chana chawli & lots of other varities of lentils but only during day time with bhakri...for dinner we take leafy vegetables with bhakri...these are all beautifully balanced & healthy diets...the only problem we create is we make our food way too spicy 🔥

[RajKumar-qgiv]

There is a difference between Weight loss and Fat loss... Most people don't understand this concept and they do rigorous fasting

[vijoyjohn]

Dr. Pal,
Please enlighten on the process of slow eating and chewing the food properly. Is it relevant ? Never heard from you on this topic .

[MrGenuinemale]

Dr Seth Gastroenterologist say Chapati is good, we need a debate show.

[englishtimeall]

I’ve lost 6 kilos in 2 months following your advice

[innermostbeing]

Dr. Pal, I successfully completed 40 days of intermittent fasting. Outcome: I lost 2.5 kgs. However, my belly fat is still wrestling with me stubbornly. Query: What about if you have to take medicine regularly during this fasting time? Thanks for your support and guidance!
