  • I tried the 5 day modified fast. Surprisingly easy. 06.10.2026 14m
    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 06.10.2026 11m
    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.

  • Controlling the 'Body Fat Thermostat' 06.10.2026 17m
    Are you struggling to lose weight despite eating less and exercising more? It’s time to stop blaming your willpower and start understanding your biology.Dr. Jason Fung, best-selling author of The Obesity Code, explains the revolutionary concept of the "Body Fat Thermostat." Just like your home’s AC maintains a specific temperature, your body has a "set point" for how much fat it wants to carry.If you only focus on "Calories In vs. Calories Out" without addressing your hormones, your body will fight back by increasing your hunger and slowing down your metabolism. This is why most diets fail in the long run!In this video, we dive deep into: ✅ The Science of Homeostasis: Why your body resists weight change. ✅ Hormones vs. Calories: The real role of Insulin, Cortisol, and GLP-1 in fat storage. ✅ The "Big Lie" of Dieting: Why eating fewer calories can sometimes lead to more fat storage. ✅ Resetting the Set Point: Practical insights on how to naturally lower your body's fat thermostat. ✅ Homeostatic Hunger: How to control your appetite by choosing the right foods.Weight loss isn't just about math; it's about hormonal balance. Whether you're interested in intermittent fasting, low-carb living, or simply improving your metabolic health, this deep dive will change the way you look at your body.Recommended Books by Dr. Jason Fung: 📖 The Hunger Code 📖 The Obesity Code 📖 The Diabetes Code 💬 WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

    Check out www.drinkaeira.com. I don't own any part of the company or get paid commission. Neither is this a sponsored video. Most people believe that counting calories is the key to weight loss, but that is a major misconception. The real secret to lasting weight loss isn't about calories—it's about controlling hunger. Drugs like Ozempic and GLP-1 agonists have proven this by targeting appetite, but you don't need medication to achieve these results.In this video, I break down the science of hunger management and share 3 powerful natural tools to help you suppress appetite and extend your fasting window comfortably. We discuss the hormonal impact of protein, the metabolic benefits of green tea, and the thermic effect of ginger.I also introduce a new product line called Aeira, which I helped develop to make bone broth and fasting teas more accessible and effective for everyone. Finally, you'll hear the inspiring story of Heather, a nurse practitioner who transformed her health by understanding that "hunger is a liar" and learning to control it.In this video, you will learn: ✅ The Calorie Myth: Why focusing on calories fails and why hunger is the root cause of overeating. ✅ Bone Broth Benefits: Why traditional bone broth works for satiety and why bouillon cubes are not a valid substitute. ✅ Green Tea Science: How catechins and caffeine in green tea improve metabolic rate and reduce hunger. ✅ The Power of Ginger: New research showing how ginger and herbal teas increase the thermic effect of food and promote fullness. ✅ Real Success Story: How Heather used these exact tools to overcome lifelong obesity.📘 PRE-ORDER MY NEW BOOK: "The Hunger Code" (Coming March 2026) This book is a direct sequel to The Obesity Code and dives deep into hunger management and resetting your body's fat thermostat.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ⏱️ Chapters / Timestamps⏳ Video Chapters: 00:00 - Intro: Why Calories Don't Matter (Hunger Does) 00:58 - Tool #1: The Power of Bone Broth for Satiety 01:39 - Introducing Aeira: A Better Way to Drink Bone Broth 02:16 - Why Bouillon Cubes Are NOT the Same 03:17 - Tool #2: Green Tea & Metabolic Rate 04:03 - The Science of Marigold & Chlorogenic Acid 04:27 - Tool #3: Herbal Tea (Ginger & Licorice Root) 04:50 - Study: How Ginger Reduces Hunger & Increases Fullness 06:00 - The Root Cause: Hunger Drives Eating Behavior 06:20 - Bonus Tip: Water & Seltzer 06:27 - Heather’s Transformation: From "Butterball" to Fasting Coach============================= 📌 BOOKS: 👉 The Obesity Code - Reviewing underlying physiology of weight loss and how low carb diets and fasting can help. https://www.amazon.com/dp/1771641258?... 👉 The Diabetes Code - Reviewing how type 2 diabetes is a reversible disease and dietary strategies. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0795BLS8D?... 👉 The Cancer Code - Scientific exploration of how cancer develops - https://www.amazon.com/dp/0062894005?... 📌 Amazon: 👉 USA - https://www.amazon.com/shop/jasonfung 👉 Canada - https://www.amazon.ca/shop/jasonfung ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 📌 Please visit our :- 🔹 Website - https://www.doctorjasonfung.com 🔹 Blog- / drjasonfung 🔹 Community- https://www.thefastingmethod.com 🔹 Facebook - / jason.fung.313 🔹 Instagram - / drjasonfung 🔹 Twitter - / drjasonfung ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 📌 YouTube Medical Lectures (for specialist physicians): ▶️ The Roots of the Obesity Epidemic: https: // • The Obesity Epidemic, Explained ▶️ Therapeutic Fasting - The Two Compartment Problem:https: // • Fasting and Weight Loss - Solving the... ▶️ Does Calorie Counting work?: • Why Calorie Counting rarely leads to ... ▶️ Two Big Lies of Type 2 Diabetes: • Two Big Lies about Type 2 Diabetes ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ If you liked the video, Please Do Subscribe My Channel 😉😍 Keep Supporting me So I can Continue to pr Learn more about your ad choices.
