Fasting Q&A with Dr Jason Fung: Iron Deficiency, High Histamine Levels, Dry Fasting, Mitophagy, Benefits of Vinegar, and More

Episode #189

In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community:

  1. I’ve been fasting for six months and was surprised to discover on my annual screening that I am in the early stages of iron deficiency. I am post-menopausal, typically eat red meat twice a week, and fast twice a week. I have been restricting my protein intake but have been taking iron supplements. Should I take iron supplements when I am fasting and are there other things I should consider with fasting as a way of life? [02:03]
  2. I recently found out I have high histamine, either from diet and/or not being able to process it. I was wondering if longer fasts, say over 24 hours, would help to get rid of high histamine and settle my body down? [05:37]
  3. I can physically feel when I am losing weight. I feel a mild tingling on the back of my thighs and glutes. It doesn’t really bother me and I look forward to the sensation as I know I am headed in the right direction. Is there a name for this sensation and is it a cellular, biochemical function? I like to think of it as fat cells dissolving! [09:41]
  4. What are your thoughts on dry fasting? [12:58]
  5. What is the allowable ketone level while fasting for two to three days (on a strict ketogenic/carnivore diet), and at what level should you break your fast? [15:36]
  6. If you have a lot of weight to lose and a lot of extra skin, how much dietary protein do you *really* need to eat during your meals? Don’t you want your body to scavenge that extra protein? Does it make a difference to fast with water, salt, and magnesium only, as opposed to using fasting aids such as bone broth? [17:47]
  7. How does fasting affect blood circulation? [20:16]
  8. Please can you explain the difference between autophagy and chaperone autophagy? [21:30]
  9. Can you please explain what is happening when you take vinegar to reduce the impact of blood sugar spikes after eating? [23:02]
  10. I don’t seem to be able to get beyond 50 hours when doing longer fasts. Is there a reason for this or is it just that 50 hours is my sweet spot when it comes to fasting? [27:43]

Fasting Q&A: Ending an Extended Fast, OMAD, Keto and Low-Carb, and More

Episode #005 In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions: 1. When should you end an extended fast? [00:30] 2. I am starting a 30:16 cycle and hope to move onto a 3x42. I have about 10 pounds more to lose. I feel very satisfied with one meal a day and 800 calories, but I am concerned that I might damage my metabolism if I go very long on OMAD (one meal a day). Is that something that is OK or should I make sure I get more calories 3 or 4 days a week? [09:08] 3. When doing one-meal-a-day, how much should you eat and/or how long should you eat? [17:50] 4. When it is said, “Intermittent fasting is not about diet,” why are we told to do keto or low-carbohydrate diets? [24:56] Have questions you want us to answer?

Introducing The Fasting Method Podcast

Introducing The Fasting Method Podcast

In today's episode, we share our journey from illness to being able to help the people we work with lose weight and reverse the chronic and "incurable" type 2 diabetes. Truth be told, we started this podcast because there is so much misinformation out there about intermittent fasting. Today our team at The Fasting Method has worked with over 16,000 adults worldwide helping them achieve sustainable weight loss and improve blood glucose levels through various fasting strategies and real, whole-food nutrition principles. We believe we have a responsibility to bust these fasting myths and set the record straight. And we're not just practioners of fasting; it's saved our lives. We've struggled with obesity, type 2 diabetes, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and fatty liver disease. We were able to take the lessons we learned throughout our own journeys and apply them, first to our clincial practice and then to our online community, and now we want to bring them to you in this podcast.
