This episode reveals game-changing research from a meta-analysis of 30 randomized controlled trials with 1,341 participants that will transform how you approach intermittent fasting. Dr. Scott and Tommy break down the shocking discovery that fasting without calorie counting produces DOUBLE the weight loss compared to fasting while tracking calories - 6.22 pounds versus 3.22 pounds respectively. More importantly, only the non-calorie counting fasting group saw significant improvements in fasting glucose (8-point drop), insulin levels (6.3 point reduction), cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood pressure, while the calorie-controlled group showed no consistent metabolic improvements. Learn why obsessing over hitting your daily calorie targets during eating windows actually sabotages your fasting benefits by potentially causing you to overeat, creating exaggerated blood sugar spikes, and interfering with natural hunger and satiety cues. The hosts explain how fasting naturally creates caloric restriction through appetite regulation and circadian biology optimization, making manual calorie counting unnecessary and counterproductive. Discover why the simplification approach - choosing an eating window and sticking to it consistently while prioritizing protein - outperforms complicated tracking methods for sustainable weight loss and metabolic health. This episode provides the scientific validation that fasting works best when you trust the process and let your body's natural mechanisms guide food intake, rather than forcing predetermined calorie targets. Essential listening for anyone frustrated with calorie counting approaches or wondering whether they need to track macros while intermittent fasting. The research conclusively shows: fasting simplifies everything while delivering superior results.

This episode reveals groundbreaking 2025 research that will revolutionize how you approach OMAD (One Meal A Day) fasting. Dr. Scott and Tommy break down a game-changing study showing how your pre-fast meal composition dramatically affects ketosis timing and fat burning efficiency during 24-hour fasts. Discover the shocking difference between starting a fast with a low-carb, high-fat meal versus a high-carb, low-fat meal: the low-carb group reached nutritional ketosis by hour 12, while the high-carb group never achieved ketosis during the entire 24-hour period. Learn how the right pre-fast meal drops insulin by 42% within one hour, increases fat-burning hormone glucagon by 24%, and naturally boosts GLP-1 (the "Ozempic hormone") by 27% and GIP by 34.5% - giving you natural appetite suppression and metabolic enhancement. The hosts explain why this simple meal composition change (60% fat, 30% protein, 10% carbs versus the opposite) can be the difference between plateau frustration and consistent fat loss results. Understand why your dinner OMAD might be sabotaging your progress, how meal timing amplifies these effects, and practical food swaps to optimize your pre-fast nutrition. If you're stuck in the 3-5 pound weight fluctuation cycle despite consistent OMAD fasting, this episode provides the missing piece to unlock sustained ketosis and accelerated fat burning. Essential listening for anyone wanting to maximize their OMAD strategy and achieve consistent, sustainable results without longer fasts or extreme measures.

This listener Q&A episode tackles the most common fasting challenges and misconceptions with real questions from the Fasting for Life community. Dr. Scott and Tommy address emotional eating during fasting when work stress derails your plan, explaining the difference between "cheating" and "choosing" and providing actionable "when-then" planning strategies to handle frustration without breaking your fast. Learn why larger lunch meals are better than dinner for insulin sensitivity and circadian biology optimization during 18:6 intermittent fasting. Discover how to interpret CGM (continuous glucose monitor) data to understand insulin sensitivity, including why the same meal causes bigger blood sugar spikes at night versus morning. Get clarity on OMAD calorie counting - why 40-60% of calculated needs is often optimal during fat loss phases, and when tracking becomes necessary. Understand the clean vs. dirty fasting debate around bone broth fasting for extended fasts, with insights on gut healing benefits and sustainability factors. Finally, learn the truth about diet sodas and artificial sweeteners during intermittent fasting - when they help vs. hinder your progress. This episode features success stories including a listener down 65 pounds with 55 to go, practical CGM interpretation tips, and honest discussions about emotional eating triggers we all face. Perfect for anyone struggling with fasting consistency, meal timing optimization, or understanding the flexibility within different fasting approaches.

This episode reveals the truth about how bad sleep is secretly sabotaging your weight loss, even when you're doing everything else right.

Dr. Scott and Tommy break down why you might be struggling to lose weight despite your best efforts, and it all comes down to one thing most people ignore: sleep. When you don't get enough quality sleep, your body basically fights against you - making it way harder to burn fat and much easier to store it, especially around your belly.

You'll discover why people who get 7+ hours of good sleep have a huge advantage when it comes to losing weight, and how even one terrible night of sleep can mess with your body's ability to handle food properly. The hosts explain how lack of sleep messes with your hunger signals, making you way hungrier the next day while your metabolism slows down - it's like your body is working against you.

But here's the good news: Dr. Scott and Tommy share simple, practical tips you can use tonight to fix your sleep. They'll tell you how to set up your bedroom for better rest, when to stop drinking coffee, why eating late ruins your sleep, and how to create an evening routine that helps both your sleep and your weight loss goals.

If you've been stuck at a weight loss plateau despite doing intermittent fasting and everything else "right," your sleep might be the missing piece. This episode gives you the exact steps to turn sleep into your secret weight loss weapon.

This episode reveals how fasting literally shrinks fat cells by keeping insulin low, with Dr. Scott and Tommy breaking down the science behind why 95% of diets fail but fasting succeeds long-term. Discover how consistent fasting can boost your metabolic rate by 300 calories per day - that's 2,100 extra calories burned weekly without additional exercise. Learn the crucial difference between visceral and subcutaneous fat storage, why fructose from drinks creates dangerous belly fat, and how overfilled fat cells become metabolically active troublemakers that block satiety signals. The hosts share why protein must be your priority during eating windows (aim for 40% of your intake), when to shift your eating window earlier in the day for better insulin sensitivity, and how to avoid the "breakfast blunder" that keeps you hungry all day. If you're tired of the diet roller coaster and want a sustainable approach that works with your body's natural fat-burning mechanisms, this episode provides the insulin-focused strategy for lasting results.

This episode dives deep into why blood sugar spikes can sabotage your fasting success and make it nearly impossible to close your eating window. Dr. Scott and Tommy explain the "glucose management zone" concept - treating every eating window as an opportunity to control blood sugar volatility rather than create metabolic chaos. Learn why that post-meal energy crash leads to late-night cravings that break your fasts, and discover simple strategies like apple cider vinegar, post-meal walks, and meal sequencing that can reduce blood sugar spikes by up to 40%. If you struggle with hunger between meals, can't seem to close your eating window, or find yourself breaking fasts due to cravings, this episode provides the blood sugar management tools to make fasting feel effortless and sustainable.

This episode reveals groundbreaking research from the Journal of Cell Metabolism showing that when you eat matters as much as what you eat for hunger control and fasting success. Dr. Scott and Tommy break down a study demonstrating that consuming 45% of daily calories at breakfast versus dinner dramatically reduces hunger and appetite without changing metabolism or weight loss. Learn why your physiology works against you when eating large evening meals, making it harder to close your eating window and stick to fasts. If you struggle with late-night cravings, can't seem to end your eating window, or find yourself breaking fasts in the evening, this episode provides the meal timing strategy to align your eating with your body's natural circadian rhythm for easier, more sustainable fasting.
