#lchf Must Share Ted Talk - Fantastic Explanation Of Insulin Resistance & #diabetes!
I liked your talk, one thing related to a question on exercise performance. Exercise on low carb for high intensity, the highest intensity is fueled via the atp phosphocreatine system 2-7 seconds eg 50m sprint and 1-3 RM lifts. Power declines and anaerobic glycolytic system increases after that to sustain high but lower output up to maybe 45 seconds, power output decreases after that. The thing is your glycogen supplies never fully deplete and will be replenished under a zero dietary carb diet just slower and not to as high a level so no super compensation as when you chug sugars. Skeletal muscle lacks glucose-6-phosphatase, it can produce glycogen but can't deliver glucose to the blood stream, think about why that would be, it would obviously be an advantage to replenish significant glycogen levels in skeletal muscle when there is no carbohydrate intake for fight or flight purposes. TLDR you can work out several times a week without carbs when fat adapted in the normal rep ranges and make progress. Also protein isn't the devil as it is portrayed in ketoland because unlike carbs the insulin response which is required help move amino acids to where they are needed is accompanied by glucagon so no hypoglycemia in a normally functioning humans.

If this is the first time youve heard of Jason, you might be better off starting with his Sigma Nutrition Radio interview and also The Aetiology Of Obesity YouTube playlist . The questions are great - they cover the topics of blood glucose levels, type 1 and type 2 diabetes issues, fasting, muscle loss, what Jason recommends as an effective treatment for diabetes and much more. Before we get into the Q&A, lets start out by clarifying some things about diabetes that Jason was very insistent that we understand... The difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Many people think that type 1 and type 2 diabetes are closely related but Jason insists thats wrong. They are completely different diseases and you cant even talk about them in the same sentence. Type 1 diabetes is a problem of not enough insulin. The proper course of treatment is to give insulin to the patient. That makes sense. But type 2 diabetes is a disease of too much insulin. Yet, what do we typically do for a type 2 diabetic? We give them insulin. Why? To control what we consider to be high blood sugar levels. But giving insulin to a type 2 diabetic doesnt address the underlying cause that is the insulin resistance. Giving insulin as medicine drops blood sugar levels but the disease r Continue reading >>
Scarborough Doctor's Book Says Insulin Makes You Fat, Fasting Makes You Thin
Scarborough doctor's book says insulin makes you fat, fasting makes you thin Dr. Jason Fung's book, The Obesity Code, argues that obesity isnt caused by overeating, but by excessive insulin. Kidney specialist Dr. Jason Fung wrote a book on obesity and its link to excessive insulin.(Cole Burston / Toronto Star) Dr. Jason Fung, 42, a kidney specialist and founder of Scarboroughs Intensive Dietary Management program, says obesity and even those last 10 pounds isnt caused by overeating, but by excessive insulin. He discovered the real culprit of getting fat, he says, after realizing patients in his nephrology practice would get better with fewer medical interventions if they lost weight. Since most of his patients were Type 2 diabetics a disease associated with too much insulin he made the link. According to his new book The Obesity Code, the best, fastest, most economical and effective way to control this hormone before or, after it gets out of control is by fasting. So, insulin, not calories, is the real cause of obesity? Obesity is a hormonal disease. Insulin, a hormone, tells you how much to eat and how much to burn. The body behaves as if the weight is set on a thermostat. Insulin acts to increase that thermostat. So, obesity is not about caloric imbalance. That idea is plainly wrong. Thats why cutting calories doesnt work. When you eat, insulin goes up and your body stores energy. When you dont eat, insulin goes down and your body takes stored energy and uses it. Storing energy (sugar and fat) is the function of insulin. When you have excessive insulin higher than normal amounts and for much longer times than normal your body becomes resistant to the effects of this hormone and produces even more insulin. Its a vicious cycle and it doesnt matter what you do; exercise Continue reading >>
Intermittent Fasting: Not So Fast
I’m sure that at least a few of you have heard or read about the latest trend in weight loss called “intermittent fasting.” The very word “fasting” is probably less than appealing, as it pretty much means you don’t eat or drink anything (except perhaps water) for a specified amount of time. Starvation is not exactly recommended among health professionals. But intermittent fasting is different. Is it something you should try? What is intermittent fasting, anyway? Intermittent fasting has been the talk of the town, so to speak, thanks to two recent books to hit the market: The Fast Diet by Dr. Michael Mosley and Mimi Spencer, and The Overnight Diet by Caroline Apovian, MD. Intermittent fasting essentially means that you skip a meal or severely restrict calories on certain days of the week with the intention of losing weight, controlling blood glucose, and/or decreasing heart disease risk. But on the other days of the week, you can pretty much eat what you want (within reason, of course). For many people, this concept sounds appealing. Limiting calories for a couple days a week doesn’t sound that bad if you can eat what you want the rest of the time. The Fast Diet, also called the The 5:2 Diet has you eat between 500 and 600 calories (women get 500 calories, men get 600 calories) for two days out of the week, spread over two meals of about 250 to 300 calories. These fast days should not be right in a row, and your food choices ideally should be more plant-based and emphasize protein. The premise is that after several hours of fasting, the body burns up its carbohydrate stores and shifts to burning fat for fuel. Many claim that intermittent fasting also helps to blunt appetite. The Overnight Diet emphasizes getting enough sleep; a lack of sleep can disrupt met Continue reading >>
The Complete Guide To Fasting & Reversing Type 2 Diabetes: A Special Interview With Dr. Jason Fung
“Everyone has a physician inside him or her; we just have to help it in its work. The natural healing force within each one of us is the greatest force in getting well. Our food should be our medicine. Our medicine should be our food. But to eat when you are sick is to feed your sickness.” – Hippocrates Fasting has not received as much attention as it should when it comes to the world of health and medicine. That’s because you can’t really make any money off of it. The ‘pharmaceutical science’ studies used in medical schools to teach doctors about human health simply don’t focus enough on fasting for doctors to be knowledgable in the subject. Doctors also learn very little about nutrition and are trained to prescribe drugs as a result. Dr. Jason Fung is trying to change all that. A Toronto based nephrologist, he 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 joined Scarborough General Hospital in 2001 where he continues to practice and change peoples lives. He is one of a growing number of scientists and doctors to create awareness about the tremendous health benefits that can be achieved from fasting. It’s one of the oldest dietary interventions in the world and has been practiced for thousands of years. If properly practiced fasting was bad or harmful in any way, as some doctors suggest, it would have been known by now, and studies would not be emerging showing the health benefits that can be achieved from fasting regularly. The Research For example, a recent study published in the journal cell shows how a fasting diet can trigger the pancreas to regenerate itself, which works to control blood sugar lev Continue reading >>
How Do You Eat When Fasting / If
I dont think I can find it explicitly mentioned anywhere about fasting, hence, a couple of silly questions: If you fast for multiple days, does that mean you literally eat nothing at all and if you do eat, what do you eat? If you intermittent fast, do you only eat as much as you would eat in a single meal, or should you eat your daily intake in the single or two meals that you eat? I could easily eat just the breakfasts worth so about 500kcal, and then eat the next time next day - is this bad? There are a lot of fasting protocols. Each can have a different therepeutic purpose. What are your goals, What is your current ketogenic status? In my case I eat twice - two small meals that usually add up to about 8oz meat. When I fast I dont eat anything but may drink coffee with cream and coconut oil, tea with low carb milk or maybe some broth depending on how long the fast is for. I always do at least a 16:8 fast as I dont eat breakfast just have hot drinks. In a complete extended fast, I eat nothing. Just water, tea, coffee, broth once a week and multivitamin twice per week. intermittent fasting for me is eat dinner once (once per 24 hour). Only coffee, tea and water rest of day(without cream, milk, sugar, sweetener) When I fast, I eat to maintain the fast if its going to be an extended fast. I might have protein every 5 days in minimal amounts or something. But, thats just me. For intermittent fasting, I dont eat. But, I dont need too. Im well adapted. Continue reading >>

Hello, everyone, and welcome to Cellular Healing TV. This is episode 112, and we have Dr. Pompa here, and we have a very special guest today, Dr. Jason Fung. Were going to talk about obesity, diabetes, fasting. Dr. Fung has a lot of expertise in these areas. Before we jump into the conversation, Im going to tell you a little bit about him. Dr. Jason Fung earned his medical degree at the University of Toronto, where he also completed his internal medicine residency before heading to the University of California at Los Angeles for his fellowship in nephrology. He currently practices as a kidney specialist in Toronto. During the course of treating thousands of patients, it became clear to Dr. Fung that the epidemic of Type 2 diabetes and obesity was getting worse. The prevailing dietary recommendations to reduce dietary fat and calories were clearly ineffective. He founded the Intensive Dietary Management program to provide a unique treatment focus for Type 2 diabetes and obesity. Rather than focusing on medications, this clinic focuses on dietary changes that are simple, yet effective. In March, 2016 just this month Greystone Books will publish Dr. Fungs first book, The Obesity Code, which explores the underlying hormonal imbalance that leads to obesity and recommends effective strategies that address the root cause of weight gain. I know you and Dr. Pompa are really in alignment on a lot of different areas. Were so excited to have you on the show Continue reading >>
U-turn Type 2 Diabetes
Reversing the Twin Causes of Type 2 Diabetes The work of Prof. Roy Taylor I want to introduce my readers to the life changing work of Professor Roy Taylor, Director of Newcastle Magnetic Resonance Centre, at Newcastle University in the United Kingdom. Prof. Taylor has done some amazing studies in which he showed for the first time the restoration of pancreatic function to normal levels in people recently diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, after an 8 week program of an extremely low 600 calorie per day diet. Prof. Taylor wrote in his Banting Memorial Lecture: It has become widely accepted that Type 2 diabetes is inevitably life-long, with irreversible and progressive beta cell damage. However, the restoration of normal glucose metabolism within days after bariatric surgery in the majority of people with Type 2 diabetes disproves this concept. There is now no doubt that this reversal of diabetes depends upon the sudden and profound decrease in food intake, and does not relate to any direct surgical effect. The Counterpoint study demonstrated that normal glucose levels and normal beta cell function could be restored by a very low calorie diet alone. Novel magnetic resonance methods were applied to measure intra-organ fat. The results showed two different time courses: a) resolution of hepatic (liver) insulin sensitivity within days along with a rapid fall in liver fat and normalisation of fasting glucose levels; and b) return of normal beta cell insulin secretion over weeks in step with a fall in pancreas fat. Now that it has been possible to observe the pathophysiological events during reversal of Type 2 diabetes, the reverse time course of events which determine the onset of the condition can be identified. The twin cycle hypothesis postulates that chronic calorie excess le Continue reading >>

How To Reverse Type 2 Diabetes, The Quick Start Guide
How to Reverse Type 2 Diabetes – The Quick Start Guide Twenty years ago, when you bought a brand sparkly new VCR machine, you would also get a thick instruction manual. Read this thoroughly before you start, the manufacturer would implore. There would be detailed setup procedures and troubleshooting guides. Most of us ignored the manual, just plugged it in and tried to figure out the rest. That’s why we all had the blinking 12:00 on. Today, most new electronics now come with a quick start guide which has the most basic 4 or 5 steps to get your machine working and then anything else you needed, you could reference the detailed instruction manual. Instruction manuals are just so much more useful this way. Well, I don’t know much about VCRs, but I do know about type 2 diabetes. I can write an entire book about obesity (oh, wait, I did that already), or fasting (oh, wait, coming up) or type 2 diabetes (next up for 2018). But many of you will not want to go through the entire instruction manual. So this is the quick start guide for reversing your type 2 diabetes. A Fully Reversible Disease Most doctors, dietitians and diabetes specialists claim that type 2 diabetes is a chronic and progressive disease. The American Diabetes Association, for example, almost proudly proclaims this on its website. Once you get the diagnosis, it’s a life sentence. But, it’s actually a great big lie. Type 2 diabetes is almost always reversible and this is almost ridiculously easy to prove. This is great news for the more than 50% of American adults who have been diagnosed with pre-diabetes or diabetes. Recognizing this truth is the crucial first step in reversing your diabetes or pre-diabetes. Actually, it something that most people already instinctively recognized to be true.

Jason Fung, Md- The Complete Guide To Fasting For Fat Loss
Click here to listen on your mobile device in iTunes 02:17 History of Fasting: Fasting has been done since the dawn of humanity. Religions prescribe periods of fasting. Ancient Greeks did it for mental clarity. In the last 50 years there has been a strong move against fasting. Dr. Fung works with diabetes patients, many of whom are overweight. Diabetes must be addressed or the illness progresses to kidney disease. In order to deal with diabetes, they must lose weight. 03:06 Nothing Wrong with Fasting: Dr. Fung investigated fasting and found that fasting had a great many benefits. Periodic fasting allows your body to burn off fat. Dr. Fung uses it with all of his overweight patients. Blood sugar medications need to be monitored closely once implementing fasting, or blood sugar could go too low. When you dont eat, your blood sugar comes down. 05:25 Hypoglycemia: If you are taking blood sugar meds, you may become hypoglycemic. Most people who fast have a lowering of blood sugar, but it most often stays within normal range. Your body will produce some of the sugar. It will also reduce the need for sugar. Your muscles will begin to burn fat. Your brain, which cannot burn fat, burns ketone bodies produced by your body. You need a small amount of glucose for the brain, but that can come from your body fat. You often hear that the brain needs 130 grams of carbohydrates every day, so you should eat that much each day. This is not true. If you dont eat, your body breaks down glycogen and provides glucose. People fast all the time for medical testing and interventions. 09:42 Muscle Loss and Fasting: Starvation mode and muscle loss are two of the many myths. Hypoglycemia is not a big concern unless you are taking blood sugar meds. As you fast, you will consume glycogen. When you e Continue reading >>
The Complete Guide To Fasting: A Special Interview With Dr. Jason Fung
Fasting is the oldest dietary intervention in the world. Modern science confirms it can have a profoundly beneficial influence on your health, including efficient weight loss, reversal of type 2 diabetes and more Fasting and starvation are not the same. Fasting is voluntary and you can start or stop at any time while starvation is forced with no alternatives Contrary to popular belief, water fasting is safe for most people. Groups that should NOT fast include those who are underweight or malnourished, children and pregnant or breastfeeding women By Dr. Mercola Fasting is one of the oldest dietary interventions in the world, and modern science confirms it can have a profoundly beneficial influence on your health. Dr. Jason Fung, a nephrologist (kidney specialist) with a practice in Canada, has written an important landmark book on this topic. "The Complete Guide to Fasting: Heal Your Body Through Intermittent, Alternate-Day, and Extended Fasting," co-authored with Jimmy Moore, details how to implement fasting and overcome some of the most common challenges that might arise, including persistent fears and myths associated with extended water fasting. For the first decade of his practice, Fung was — like most doctors — conventionally oriented. As a kidney specialist, many of his patients had type 2 diabetes as the primary cause of their kidney failure. Fasting Helps Reverse Diabetes — And Related Health Conditions It became clear to him that the conventional treatment of type 2 diabetes was seriously flawed. Despite patients' best efforts to manage their diabetes, taking their insulin and following the recommended diet and so on, they would still end up with complications such as kidney disease, requiring dialysis, or they'd need amputations, or they'd go blind.
