  A Calorie Deficit cannot EVER exist – here’s why! 11.10.2026 13min

  Most people are told that “weight loss = calorie deficit.” But the truth is, a caloriedeficit is a myth. Your body is not a simple calculator where you just subtractcalories and lose fat. In this video, Dr. Jason Fung explains the science behindwhy focusing only on calories fails, and why hormones, insulin, and fatmetabolism are the real keys to healthy and lasting weight loss.When people try extreme dieting or drug-induced appetite suppression, theyoften experience side effects like the dreaded “Ozempic face” — hollow cheeks,sagging skin, and an unhealthy look. This happens because subcutaneous fat(the fat under the skin) gets burned instead of visceral fat (the dangerous fataround your organs). The result: you may lose weight, but you don’t look or feelhealthy.Fasting works completely differently. Instead of just cutting calories, fastingchanges your hormones and metabolism:�� Insulin drops, allowing fat burning to start�� Growth hormone rises, protecting muscle and skin elasticity�� Autophagy activates, repairing tissues and preventing loose skin�� Visceral fat is targeted, which improves health and appearance�� Brown fat (through beiging) is activated, boosting metabolism naturallyThat’s why people who fast look healthier, stronger, and younger compared tothose who follow harsh calorie-restricted diets.In this video you’ll discover:✅ Why calorie restriction almost always fails✅ The science of subcutaneous vs. visceral fat✅ How fasting avoids the “Ozempic face” problem✅ The role of hormones in fat burning and aging✅ How fasting improves skin health, prevents sagging, and supports long-termfat loss�� If you’re serious about losing weight without losing your health or youthfulook, this video is a must-watch.�� Subscribe now for more science-backed videos on fasting, weight loss, anmetabolic health.

  Why almost 80% of my patients are quietly quitting Ozempic 11.10.2026 18min

  Are weight-loss drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Tirzepatide truly miracle cures? In this in-depth video, Dr. Jason Fung breaks past the media hype to examine real-world data, including cohort studies from JAMA and Blue Cross Blue Shield (BHI), revealing a side of modern weight-loss treatments that few are talking about.While clinical trials paint a glowing picture, real-world statistics tell a different story: a massive percentage of patients—ranging from 60% to nearly 80%—stop taking these medications within one to two years. But why are millions of people walking away from a drug that promised them results?Dr. Jason Fung uncovers the three major hidden problems with modern obesity drugs that explain why patients ultimately throw in the towel. From the shocking drop-off in long-term persistence and the subtle erosion of life’s greatest daily pleasures to the frustrating reality that these drugs simply stop working over time, this video exposes the true cost of GLP-1 therapy.📌 In This Video, You Will Discover:● The Real-World Data: Why up to 80% of patients discontinue Ozempic and similar GLP-1 agonists despite having insurance coverage.● The Quality of Life Dilemma: How suppressing appetite often strips away the joy of eating, socializing, and celebrating milestones.● The Plateau Effect: Why weight loss quickly halts after 6 to 9 months as the body adapts and energy expenditure decreases.● The Long-Term Trap: Why simply telling patients to "take it forever" ignores human nature, clinical economics, and patient well-being.Whether you are considering these medications, currently on a weight-loss journey, or looking for sustainable, natural alternatives to health and fasting, this analysis provides the crucial insights you need.🔔 Subscribe to the channel for more science-backed health insights: https://www.youtube.com/@DrJasonFung▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ⏱️ Video Chapters (Timestamps): 00:00 The 3 Big Problems With Ozempic00:32 Ozempic and the History of Weight Loss Drugs01:55 Why Weight Loss Drugs Often Fail Long-Term02:48 Ozempic: Benefits, Risks and the Weight Loss Hype03:22 Why People Stop Taking Ozempic04:01 What Happens When You Stop Ozempic?04:53 Ozempic Discontinuation: 54% Stop Within One Year05:30 Real-World GLP-1 Weight Loss Drug Data06:29 Why People Really Stop Taking Ozempic07:00 How Ozempic Changes Hunger and Food Pleasure08:06 “Life Just Goes Beige” — The Hidden Cost of Ozempic08:35 Ozempic and Quality of Life09:00 Obesity Drugs, Side Effects and Quality of Life10:18 Why Ozempic May Stop Working Over Time11:01 Ozempic, Semaglutide and Tirzepatide Weight Loss Plateau11:50 Why Weight Loss Plateaus After 6–12 Months12:42 The Real Problem With Ozempic13:31 The 3 Major Problems With Ozempic Explained14:01 Is Ozempic Worth It?

  Fasting and Weight Loss - Solving the Two-Compartment problem 10.10.2026 43min

  Why intermittent Fasting is a simple solution for weight loss. Body fat is simply a method of storing food energy. When we eat, our body wants to store those calories. When we don't eat (intermittent fasting), our body uses those calories. So, if we want to lose body fat, increase the duration of time that we are not eating.

  Type 2 Diabetes isn't Genetic ... It's Caused by THIS 10.10.2026 19min

  Are you struggling to understand the real root cause of Type 2 Diabetes?For decades, the medical community has focused on insulin resistancewithout clearly explaining what actually causes the cells to becomeresistant in the first place.In this comprehensive masterclass, we break down the science of insulinresistance and reveal why the outdated 'Lock and Key' (internalstarvation) theory fails to explain the modern obesity and diabetesepidemics. Instead, we explore the 'Overflow Paradigm'.You will discover how decades of high-carbohydrate diets have literallyoverstuffed your cells with glucose, leading to hyperinsulinemia, fatty liver,and metabolic syndrome.More importantly, Type 2 Diabetes is a fully reversible condition. Byunderstanding how your body processes sugar, you can take control ofyour metabolic health using simple, evidence-based methods like low-carbdiets and intermittent fasting.In this video, you will learn:✅ The Root Cause: Why Type 2 Diabetes is actually a disease of toomuch insulin (hyperinsulinemia).✅ The Suitcase Analogy: Why your cells are rejecting insulin because theyare already jam-packed with glucose.✅ The 1977 Disaster: How the dietary guidelines to "eat more carbs andless fat" directly sparked the obesity and diabetes epidemics.✅ Reversing the Disease: How low-carbohydrate diets and intermittentfasting empty the cells of toxic glucose.✅Modern Medicine: How treatments like GLP-1 agonists (Ozempic) andSGLT2 inhibitors fit into the reversal process.�� Join the Conversation:Have you tried a low-carb diet or intermittent fasting to manage your bloodsugar?

  I tried the 5 day modified fast. Surprisingly easy. 10.10.2026 14min

  I’m sharing my personal experience with the fasting mimicking diet (FMD). I’ll break down how it works, the science behind it, and whether it’s worth trying.I’ve been talking about fasting since 2014, but one of the few researchers exploringfasting at the time was Dr. Longo in California. He discovered that fasting triggersbeneficial repair processes in the body, but fasting for five days can be tough. That’swhere the fasting mimicking diet comes in — it allows you to eat small amounts ofspecially designed foods while still keeping your body in a fasting state.�� What You’ll Learn in This Video:✅ How the fasting mimicking diet works and the science behind it✅ Why lowering nutrient sensors like insulin and mTOR matters for health✅ Health benefits shown in studies on weight loss, diabetes, cancer, and more✅ My personal experience – what worked, what didn’t, and how it felt✅ Pros: Structured, easier than water fasting, good taste, and convenient✅ Cons: It's pricey, but it replaces five days of mealsI’ve done water fasts before, and they’re not easy — especially on days 3 and 4. Butthe FMD made it much more manageable since you’re still eating a bit of food. Plus,it’s less stressful and more socially convenient when eating with family.I’ll also walk you through exactly what’s included in the FMD kit — from soups andbars to teas and vitamins — and share my thoughts on the taste and overallexperience.If you’re curious about fasting or looking for an easier way to experience the benefitsof fasting, this video is for you!�� Watch now and let me know your thoughts in the comments!▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▶️ Timestamps/Chapters00:00 – Intro00:20 – Fasting Mimicking Diet01:27 – How can a 5 day fast be made easier?03:38 – Why Mimic Fasting?

  How Calories Are Different for Weight Loss (Science) | Jason Fung 10.10.2026 11min

  Dr. Jason Fung explains how and why all calories aren't the same. The term 'A Calorie is a Calorie' assumes that only the amount of calories is important and not the type of calories. Yet different calories have different hormonal effects on our bodies which impacts their fattening effect.

If 'Calories In, Calories Out' really worked, why do those dietsfail 99% of the time? In this video, Dr. Jason Fung explains why obesity is not acaloric imbalance, but a hormonal imbalance—specifically involving insulin.Most people believe that weight gain is a personal choice caused by eating toomuch and exercising too little. But science tells a different story. Discover howyour body's internal thermostat (BMR) actually regulates your weight and whylowering insulin, not calories, is the key to long-term fat loss.In this video you will learn:● Why the 'Calories In, Calories Out' model is scientifically flawed.● How damage to the hypothalamus leads to massive weight gain(independent of willpower).● The role of Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) in energy expenditure.● How Insulin acts as a 'Fat Storage Hormone' and blocks lipolysis (fatburning).● Why simply eating less lowers your metabolism and makes you regainweight.medical Disclaimer: The content of this video is for educational purposes onlyand is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis,or treatment.
