Fasting Q&A with Dr Jason Fung: Smoothies and Protein Drinks, Iodine, High Uric Acid, ADHD, and More

Fasting Q&A with Dr Jason Fung: Smoothies and Protein Drinks, Iodine, High Uric Acid, ADHD, and More

Episode #193

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

  1. Are home-made smoothies and protein drinks helpful or detrimental as meal replacement when trying to lose weight or reverse type two diabetes? If so, what kind would you recommend? (05:14)
  2. Is it acceptable for someone 4’10” to eat 0.6 grams of protein per kilogram instead of TFM’s recommended 0.8-1.2 gram, since they are so petite? (08:32)
  3. How does iodine intake and storage work in the body from a scientific perspective? Since iodine is water soluble, what is known about how long the body can maintain adequate iodine levels between dietary intake? Are there any established research findings about the need for iodine during different eating patterns, such as an extended fast? (12:02)
  4. Will consistently high uric acid levels from fasting adversely affect my health even if I don't have symptoms of hyperuricemia? (14:08)
  5. I believe you addressed this at the time Dr. Peter Attia was a guest on Thomas DeLauer’s YouTube channel, but I can’t remember which one of our podcasts that was. Wasn’t he cautioning about extended fasts and muscle loss for people who were already in great shape - “shredded” if you will? Don’t you quickly regain any muscle lost once you start eating nutrient-dense food again? (15:21)
  6. Is there more autophagy happening during exercise or fasting? (21:17)
  7. What is the best fasting regime for someone with a low BMI but who has non-alcoholic fatty liver disease? How long should alternate-day fasting (just started two 42-48 hour fasts a week) combined with a whole-food, low-carb diet continue? (23:46)
  8. What are your thoughts on fasting while taking ADHD medication? (25:04)
  9. Do you have any recommendations for a diet that will starve or kill cancer? (26:23)
  10. How long does it take to reverse insulin resistance while doing fasting and low-carb and how do you know when you have? (27:42)

Fasting Q&A: Food Quality, Plant-Based Diets, and Fiber

Fasting Q&A: Food Quality, Plant-Based Diets, and Fiber

Episode #127 In this Fasting Q&A episode, Nadia answers some of your fasting questions: 1. What are your thoughts on food quality? Should I try and eat grass-fed meats and organic vegetables? How important is it to switch to this top-quality food alongside fasting? [02:21] 2. Is bacon a processed meat? Is having non grass-fed bacon ok because, here in India, we can’t get grass-fed bacon? [05:41] 3. Do you have any tips for fasting on a vegetarian diet? My partner is a vegetarian and I am interested in cutting out meat also, but I am not sure about the nutritional value of meat substitutes like tofu and other plant-based proteins. [07:28]  4. I would love to hear more about fasting with a plant-based diet. I don't avoid fruit or below-ground veggies. I eat nuts and seeds, but no dairy. I have cut out most highly processed foods and I am doing TRE, usually a 16-18 hour fast. There is so much conflicting information about diet! [09:57]  5. I follow a high-fat, low-carb diet on my eating days. I seem to struggle to keep my carbs low while trying to get in my daily fiber. I try to eat as much high-fiber food as possible (like avocados, chia seeds, and vegetables) at each meal. How do you add fiber to your diet while staying low-carb? Should I consider fiber supplements? [13:59] 6. Being that fiber helps to slow the digestion of sugars and fats (therefore decreasing blood glucose spikes), would you recommend taking a daily fiber supplement? What about when fasting? Does it technically break a fast even though the body is not digesting it?
