Fasting Q&A with Dr Jason Fung: Gallstones and Fasting, High Ketones, Persistent High Blood Sugar, and More

Fasting Q&A with Dr Jason Fung: Gallstones and Fasting, High Ketones, Persistent High Blood Sugar, and More

Episode #171

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

1. Imagine that I dress the carbs that I eat by adding acid and fat so that my BG spike is minimized. What happens to all the fat that I added? Don’t the carbs send the signal for insulin to go up and, consequently, for all the fat I added go directly into body fat? If so, should I minimize the amount of fat that I dress carbs with and mostly just eat them with acid, like vinegar or lemon juice? [01:55]

2. What eating strategy would you suggest for an insulin-resistant or pre-diabetic person? In other words, do they need to low carb to get out of the pre-diabetic range? [08:32]

3. I am struggling with getting my blood sugars down to a normal range and am stalled in my weight loss. I have lost 150 lbs and gotten off insulin and other oral meds. I feel like my way of eating is on point 95% of the time and I am fasting 24-48 hours or longer 2-3 times a week. On my last extended fast, my blood sugar didn’t come down until day 3 and then started going up every day. By day 5, my blood sugar was 189. I broke my fast with whole, low-carb foods and my blood sugar came down to the 140s where it likes to live these days. I'm wondering why, so far into my journey, things would start going wonky. I do have a lot of personal and family stress happening right now. Could that be generating enough cortisol to be negating my diet and fasting or are there other explanations that could be contributing? [16:44]

4. Do you have any evidence (empirical or otherwise) on fasting, autophagy, and reduced carbohydrate intake for people with ADPKD (Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease)? [20:23]

5. Can patients with gallstones fast? Does it increase the risk of gallstones? [24:57]

6. I know seed oils are not recommended but what do you think about cold pressed niger seed oil? Avocado oil is not readily available in my country, and I cannot use butter or animal fat everyday as there are a minimum of 180 religious fasts a year. These fasts prohibit dairy products and meat, so we are basically vegans during these fasts. [30:36]

7. Why do some people (who have never missed a meal in their life and suddenly start a multi-day fast) get very high ketones and have to break their fast? [34:32]

Fasting Q&A: Pre and Probiotics, CGMs, Hormonal Tests, and Fat Fasting vs Extended Fasting

Fasting Q&A: Pre and Probiotics, CGMs, Hormonal Tests, and Fat Fasting vs Extended Fasting

Episode #57  In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions: 1. Can we take prebiotics and probiotics during extended fasting? [03:07] 2. I’m going to Europe for a few weeks - Italy and France - and want to buy a CGM machine which I know you can get at most pharmacies. Is there a specific brand or type of machine that you recommend? [05:39] 3. Are there any other tests that can be beneficial for women? I’ve been having a lot of problems with my hormones (specifically a low level of testosterone) and I’m tired of going to doctors who seem to do tests and tell me things are, “OK,” without cross referencing hormone levels or taking other tests into consideration. I’m at the point where I want to become my own “doctor” as far as monitoring my glucose and hormone levels. [15:57]  4. Should you fat fast or do extended fasting before holiday events?

Fasting Q&A: Hysterectomy, Vitamins and Pain Meds, Birth Control Pill, and High Altitude and Fasting

Episode #53  In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions: 1. Last year I had a hysterectomy, but kept my ovaries. At the time, I was in peri-menopause. How will this impact fasting and should I do anything differently? [02:27] 2. Do vitamins or pain-relief tablets break a fast? [08:44] 3. If female hormones are so important for women and help us maintain weight during reproductive age, what do you think about the impact of birth control pills on metabolism? [13:41]  4. We often travel for an extended amount of time to 4000m. I am not sure if fasting 48-72 hrs would put too much stress on the body since high altitude is a big change for the body anyway?
