Episode #147 In this Fasting Q&A; episode, Megan Ramos answers some of your fasting questions: 1. Do you have any tips for getting better sleep while fasting? (Rose from Edinburgh) [01:57] 2. Is it possible to do a 10-day water fast without medical supervision? How long can one fast without needing medical supervision? (Maria from Toronto) [07:11] 3. When fasting for 36-72 hours, the Quick Guides say to eat lunch and dinner the following day. Is this a requirement or a suggestion as I find it easier to eat OMAD at dinnertime after work. (Mable from Montreal) [08:53]  4. My question is about fasting and constipation. How do I deal with it when skipping breakfast? (Lucilei from The Netherlands) [11:50]  5. I am doing 36-42 hour therapeutic fasting three times a week to reverse T2D. Once I have done that, what should my maintenance routine be? (Don from British Columbia) [15:44] 6. How do I balance staying adequately hydrated and not having to visit the washroom every one-two hours? I find it difficult to leave home as I constantly have to find the nearest washroom, but the worst is having to get up 3-4 times during the night and having interrupted sleep because of it.

Episode #144 In this Fasting Q&A; episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community:  I’ve known for a long time how neuroprotective ketones are for the brain, but, wow, what ketones do for the heart is amazing, especially the failing heart. Could you elaborate, Dr. Fung? [02:15] Do you need to be in ketosis to burn fat and does being in at least a low level of nutritional ketosis help you go into autophagy sooner? [04:39]  Why does it take such a long time to become fat adapted? [07:20] I’ve heard that fasting “turns on” survival genes. Can you tell us a little more about this? [09:25] What are your thoughts about the new recommendation to carb load before surgery to “calm” someone? [11:12] Is there any correlation between fasting and pulse rate? [12:58] I have a diabetic friend who is participating in a study on duodenal mucosa resurfacing (DMR) as a treatment for T2D. Does Dr. Fung have any take on this pretty new procedure or explanation of how and why it works? [13:17] If a person wants the benefit of therapeutic fasting (like autophagy) but they do not have adequate body fat for longer fasts (for example, a TOFI person with a fatty liver, or somebody at 30% body fat who needs a lot of autophagy for an autoimmune condition), How should they eat on eating days to be able to maintain a therapeutic fasting schedule like an alternate-day fasting protocol? [16:33] What are the signs of a histamine intolerance and can it get worse over time? Does fasting help? [17:53] If autophagy is mostly switched on by the presence of mTor, could a person (in principle) eat a zero protein diet and eat exclusively fat but still ramp up autophagy enough for some protein recycling to aid loose skin reduction, macular problems, skin tags, etc.? [18:45] How do you get rid of visceral fat? [20:22] How long does the effect of dairy on insulin last? [21:45] Why is it easier for women to do longer fasts after they’ve had a small amount of tubers during the last meal before their fast? [24:41]  Please note that you need to be a member of the TFM Community to submit questions to the Q&A; webinars with Dr. Fung but you can submit questions to our regular Q&A; episodes here: https://bit.ly/TFMPodcastQs Learn More About Our Community: https://www.thefastingmethod.com Join our FREE Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/TFMNetwork Watch Us On YouTube: https://bit.ly/TFMYouTube Follow Us on Instagram: @fastingmethod This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional care by a doctor or other qualified medical professional.
