  • Fasting Q&A with Dr Jason Fung: Fasting and Gout, Creatine, TOFIs, Hypothyroidism, and More
    Episode #208 In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community: Do you think healthy individuals should take a daily multivitamin? [04:40] I am a 300-pound male and usually have about 20g of protein a day when I fat fast. If I have more, I can’t stick with it. I’ve found that before I do a 66 (two per week), I need about 140-200g of protein the day before in order to complete the fast. In other words, doing a fat fast right before my fast doesn’t hold me and I binge. Is there anything wrong with doing this? [05:50] What is the best way to extend a fast when someone has a history of gout? [11:40] What is your opinion on Dr. Roy Taylor's work about the pancreas not really being burned out but clogged with fat so the beta cells cannot function properly? [12:51] If someone has a high LP(a) of over 200, but their Trigs:HDL ratio is 1:1, then don’t worry, but what about plasmapheresis for Lp(a)? [14:19]  Will younger people respond quicker to IF than older people? [15:45] I’ve read the science behind creatine and the many benefits to your muscles (I weight train) and your brain, and recently purchased a high quality brand. Creatine doesn’t contain protein, it’s a naturally occurring compound made from amino acids arginine, glycine, and methionine, so will it prevent autophagy? [17:15] If instead of adding MCT oil to the morning coffee we would take an omega pill instead, which of these might have less of an insulin release? [19:49] TFM’s Book Club is reading Dr. Christopher Palmer's “Brain Energy” this month. He covers the metabolic theory of mental health, specifically with regards to mitochondrial health and optimal brain-energy metabolism impacting our prefrontal cortex function. Can you talk about this ‘hidden in plain sight’ mental metabolic disorder of the brain, showing the progressive degeneration of the prefrontal cortex seen so rampant in our culture today? [21:21] What kind of fasting protocol can be done for someone considered to be a TOFI and doesn’t want to lose too much weight? [25:34] There’s some conflicting research on how keto and fasting affects T3 levels. For individuals with low T3 production, do you recommend a specific keto or fasting approach and are there any important considerations?

  • Fasting Q&A with Dr Jason Fung: Off-Label Use of GLP-1s, Double Diabetes, Seed Oils, and More.
    Episode #206 In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community: Are there common strategies that help to avoid the common pitfalls of Ramadan, like late night eating, overeating, or accidentally doing OMAD for too long and slowing down the metabolic rate? [01:07] Concerns about off-label use of GLP-1s. Some medical professionals seem to be prescribing GLP-1 medications for anti-aging/longevity purposes in people who aren't overweight or diabetic. What do you think about the trend of “microdosing” GLP-1s as a preventative health measure? [02:36] Are there further short and long-term side effects of GLP-1s coming to light? [06:36] Are there ethical concerns around supply issues with GLP-1s due to increased demand from off-label use? [ 10:12] Are there bioethical concerns about GLP-1s that doctors should be discussing with patients? [12:03] Can you address how people with Type 1 diabetes can develop insulin resistance similar to those with Type 2, sometimes referred to as ‘double diabetes’? [16:21] How concerning is an elevated Lp(a) and how can you lower it? [20:47] Do you know of research or trials with fasting to reduce prostate size?  [26:28] Can someone who is considering kidney donation fast/fat fast? [29:08] I'm seeing many reputable sources saying that the claims against seed oils aren't actually based in the science. I'm curious whether Dr. Fung's opinion has evolved on this?
