Weight loss is all about hormones, not calories

Hormones determine how our body uses it stored calories (Body Fat). If insulin is high, we store more fat, if it is low, we store less. #weightloss #weightlosstips #jasonfung #nutrition #hungercode

    1. Have you read his first book, the Obesity code? That book was responsible for putting me on the right path. I was 360 lb, in a scooter, disabled and unable to walk.

      I found his book, got rid of the carbs, got rid of all sugar, got rid of bread, pasta all of the things that become sugar in our bodies. I started eating real food, meat, eggs, a little bit of seasonal organic fruit but very carefully because that is sugar.

      I’m 185 lb now. I’m not disabled, I’m not in the scooter and I’m not on any of the medications I was on then. My a1c went from pre-type 2 diabetic to 4.7.

      What Dr Fung says is absolutely correct.

    2. @Kyarrix congratulations!!! I read The Obesity Code, The Diabetes Code and The Cancer Code. Life changing info for me, too!! Down from 330 lbs to 155 lbs, A1C from 6.9 to 5.4, breast cancer not coming back, off antacids and other meds, mental health greatly improved! 🙌🏻

    3. ​@AnitaSolution Both of us! Congratulations sister! You must feel so great and proud of yourself. I have all of his books too except the last one and I’m going to order it.

      Isn’t it hard not to tell people about it? I’m taking courses so I can do this professionally instead of law. I’m passionate about it and get frustrated at how much bad information on diet there is.

    4. @K@Kyarrixes!!! Same!! People think we’re crazy! How can they discard the information of people who have lost so much weight so effortlessly!

      I feel better at 62 then I did as a teenager! No joint pain no frozen shoulders no heartburn or anything. Let alone reversing type two and keeping away breast cancer!

  1. I so wish more people understood this. I hear CICO quoted so much and I know it really isn’t that simple.

    1. ​@susanraeburn6257Yeah I have under 10 percent body fat. Low fat diet to get shredded high fat high calorie bulk..me and many others who lift do this..works Everytime

  2. I Thank You My DR.Fung ,I stay on same weight with discipline, I’ve been learning and educating my self, and more to learn every day, Now days were so Blessed to have DR. On line whit Free information ,God Blessed you My DR.🙏

  3. Thank you. You are so correct. I’m so sick of people parroting “calorie deficit”. It absolutely is not that simple.

  4. Remember, vitamin D3 is a Hormone, necessary for defining whether storage is needed in fat cells.
    Low D3 (no summer sun), store your food as fat to survive winter.
    We work indoors year round, constant winter fat saving mode, so to tell the body it’s summertime year round, take D3 year round to raise this hormone level above 50 ng/ml of serum 25HydroxyVitaminD3.

    1. What has vitamin D got to do with INSULIN
      ITS INSULIN, THE STORAGE HORMONE.
      This been said again and again.
      People just dont want to listen.

  5. From the pioneer of Fasting related teaching the one and ONLY Dr. Jason Fung !!!

    He is truly the best .

    He’s always on point 👌

  6. Ive said for years that its not an input output problem its a processing problem, we’ve come a long way as far as information on this issue gos

  7. I lost over 140 pounds by following Dr. Fung’s teachings. And I did it in less than a year. I changed my lifestyle 100%. I lead a ketogenic lifestyle and exercise daily, along with intermittent fasting and multi-day fasting. I’ve never been so healthy in my life. Thank you, Dr. Fung.

  8. Down 175 lbs! 20-25 lbs from goal! Thank you for letting me know fasting wouldn’t break my metabolism or any of the other myths!! Instead, my A1C went from 6.9 to 5.4, I got off proton pump inhibitors, I’ve kept breast cancer away from- today heard back to regular screenings 🎉 no more joint pain or any pain really!!! Mental health 100% better! Sharp as a tack and winning awards at work. 🙌🏻

  9. Hi Granny Berry! I live next to the heart shaped lake – Lake St Clair in Mount Clemens Michigan. I’ve lost 175 lbs on not too strict keto: A1C gone from 6.9 to 5.4, breast cancer staying away, off antacids, no more joint pain or any pain!!! Sending you love and gratitude ❤ oh yeah I’m 62 and feel better than I did at 16 🙌🏻 Happy New Year everyone!! 🎉

    Yes where’s my tv spot!! I’ve made it my mission to educate my doctor. I love her. She’s young and open minded. She let me try keto and fasting with type 2 diagnosis rather than putting me immediately on meds.

  10. Amazing how so many people still think all calories are the same and the calorie in & out nonsense. Great job Dr Fung!! 👏
