Are you struggling to lose weight despite eating less and exercising more? It’s time to stop blaming your willpower and start understanding your biology.
Dr. Jason Fung, best-selling author of The Obesity Code, explains the revolutionary concept of the "Body Fat Thermostat." Just like your home’s AC maintains a specific temperature, your body has a "set point" for how much fat it wants to carry.
If you only focus on "Calories In vs. Calories Out" without addressing your hormones, your body will fight back by increasing your hunger and slowing down your metabolism. This is why most diets fail in the long run!
In this video, we dive deep into:
✅ The Science of Homeostasis: Why your body resists weight change.
✅ Hormones vs. Calories: The real role of Insulin, Cortisol, and GLP-1 in fat storage.
✅ The "Big Lie" of Dieting: Why eating fewer calories can sometimes lead to more fat storage.
✅ Resetting the Set Point: Practical insights on how to naturally lower your body's fat thermostat.
✅ Homeostatic Hunger: How to control your appetite by choosing the right foods.
Weight loss isn't just about math; it's about hormonal balance. Whether you're interested in intermittent fasting, low-carb living, or simply improving your metabolic health, this deep dive will change the way you look at your body.

Dr. Jason Fung reveals the science of facial fat loss, subcutaneous vs. visceral fat,
and how to lose weight without damaging your appearance.
Have you ever seen someone lose a lot of weight but end up looking tired, old, or
even sickly? You might’ve heard the term “Ozempic Face” — a phrase describing the
hollow cheeks, sunken eyes, and wrinkled skin people often get after rapid weight
loss through appetite-suppressing drugs or extreme calorie restriction.
But here's the good news: Fasting doesn’t cause Ozempic Face. In fact, it can protect
your facial appearance while helping you lose dangerous internal fat and reverse
metabolic diseases like type 2 diabetes.
In this powerful video, Dr. Jason Fung breaks down the real science behind facial fat
loss and explains why intermittent fasting is a healthier, smarter, and more natural
way to lose fat — without compromising your skin, face, or youthfulness.
�� What You'll Learn in This Video:
✅ Why people get “Ozempic Face” after extreme dieting or GLP-1 drugs
✅ The critical difference between subcutaneous fat (under the skin) and visceral fat (around
your organs)
✅ How fasting triggers growth hormone, autophagy, and fat-beiging to help preserve skin
elasticity and bone health
✅ Real-world examples: How fasting users look healthier compared to drug-induced weight
loss
✅ Why fasting helps your body burn harmful internal fat and retain healthy facial fat
✅ How brown fat activation boosts metabolism and supports long-term fat loss
✅ Key findings from recent clinical studies (2022–2025) on time-restricted eating, low-carb
diets, and belly fat reduction

Insulin and cortisol are key hormones in weight loss. Our body gains or loses fat based on the hormonal instructions we give it. When insulin is high, we store fat. We discuss why the Atkins diet lost popularity for a time and why it rebounded in new forms. The role of the stress hormone cortisol in weight loss.

Most people believe that counting calories is the key to weight loss, but that is a major misconception. The real secret to lasting weight loss isn't about calories—it's about controlling hunger. Drugs like Ozempic and GLP-1 agonists have proven this by targeting appetite, but you don't need medication to achieve these results.
In this video, I break down the science of hunger management and share 3 powerful natural tools to help you suppress appetite and extend your fasting window comfortably. We discuss the hormonal impact of protein, the metabolic benefits of green tea, and the thermic effect of ginger.
I also introduce a new product line called Aeira, which I helped develop to make bone broth and fasting teas more accessible and effective for everyone. Finally, you'll hear the inspiring story of Heather, a nurse practitioner who transformed her health by understanding that "hunger is a liar" and learning to control it.
In this video, you will learn:
✅ The Calorie Myth: Why focusing on calories fails and why hunger is the root cause of overeating.
✅ Bone Broth Benefits: Why traditional bone broth works for satiety and why bouillon cubes are not a valid substitute.
✅ Green Tea Science: How catechins and caffeine in green tea improve metabolic rate and reduce hunger.
✅ The Power of Ginger: New research showing how ginger and herbal teas increase the thermic effect of food and promote fullness.
✅ Real Success Story: How Heather used these exact tools to overcome lifelong obesity.
📘 PRE-ORDER MY NEW BOOK: "The Hunger Code" (Coming March 2026) This book is a direct sequel to The Obesity Code and dives deep into hunger management and resetting your body's fat thermostat.
