Jason Fung

Welcome back to The Diabetes Code Clinic, hosted by Dr. Jason Fung. If you missed Part 1, we covered the fundamentals of Type 2 Diabetes, including how it develops and how to start reversing it. In this episode, we dive deeper into the powerful role of a low-carb diet in achieving remission of Type 2 Diabetes.

Learn why Type 2 Diabetes is essentially an overflow problem caused by excess sugar in your body and how reducing carbohydrate intake can help manage and even reverse this condition. Dr. Fung explains:
✔️ The role of three macronutrients (proteins, fats, carbohydrates).
✔️ Why carbohydrates are unnecessary for good health (carbs = sugar).
✔️ Which foods raise blood sugar levels and which do not.
✔️ Practical tips to adjust your diet, focusing on non-starchy vegetables, proteins, and natural fats.

Most people still believe weight gain is simply about calories.

But if calorie restriction alone worked long-term, why do so many people struggle?

In this conversation, Dr. Jason Fung sits down with Julia from Ancestral Supplements to explore the hormonal model of weight gain, insulin, ultra-processed foods, and how modern eating patterns may influence metabolism.
Topics discussed:
• Why “calories in, calories out” may be incomplete
• Insulin as a key metabolic hormone
• How processed foods can affect hunger and satiety
• The difference between whole foods and refined foods
• Understanding insulin sensitivity
• The role of nutrient density in traditional diets
Weight regulation is complex and involves more than simple math. This discussion explores how hormones, food quality, and dietary patterns may play a role.
If you found this conversation helpful, consider sharing it with someone who may benefit from hearing it.

I’m sharing my personal experience with the fasting mimicking diet (FMD). I’ll break down how it works, the science behind it, and whether it’s worth trying.
I’ve been talking about fasting since 2014, but one of the few researchers exploring
fasting at the time was Dr. Longo in California. He discovered that fasting triggers
beneficial repair processes in the body, but fasting for five days can be tough. That’s
where the fasting mimicking diet comes in — it allows you to eat small amounts of
specially designed foods while still keeping your body in a fasting state.

�� What You’ll Learn in This Video:
✅ How the fasting mimicking diet works and the science behind it
✅ Why lowering nutrient sensors like insulin and mTOR matters for health
✅ Health benefits shown in studies on weight loss, diabetes, cancer, and more
✅ My personal experience – what worked, what didn’t, and how it felt
✅ Pros: Structured, easier than water fasting, good taste, and convenient
✅ Cons: It's pricey, but it replaces five days of meals
I’ve done water fasts before, and they’re not easy — especially on days 3 and 4. But
the FMD made it much more manageable since you’re still eating a bit of food. Plus,
it’s less stressful and more socially convenient when eating with family.
I’ll also walk you through exactly what’s included in the FMD kit — from soups and
bars to teas and vitamins — and share my thoughts on the taste and overall
experience.
If you’re curious about fasting or looking for an easier way to experience the benefits
of fasting, this video is for you!

Dr. Jason Fung explains how and why all calories aren't the same. The term 'A Calorie is a Calorie' assumes that only the amount of calories is important and not the type of calories. Yet different calories have different hormonal effects on our bodies which impacts their fattening effect. Check out my blog at https://medium.com/@drjasonfung

Stop counting calories. If 'Calories In, Calories Out' really worked, why do those diets
fail 99% of the time? In this video, Dr. Jason Fung explains why obesity is not a
caloric imbalance, but a hormonal imbalance—specifically involving insulin.
Most people believe that weight gain is a personal choice caused by eating too
much and exercising too little. But science tells a different story. Discover how
your body's internal thermostat (BMR) actually regulates your weight and why
lowering insulin, not calories, is the key to long-term fat loss.
In this video you will learn:
● Why the 'Calories In, Calories Out' model is scientifically flawed.
● How damage to the hypothalamus leads to massive weight gain
(independent of willpower).
● The role of Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) in energy expenditure.
● How Insulin acts as a 'Fat Storage Hormone' and blocks lipolysis (fat
burning).
● Why simply eating less lowers your metabolism and makes you regain
weight.
