On Today’s Episode:

Not understanding hormones and calories is leading more of us to metabolic problems than a little bit. Unfortunately, losing weight and having healthier blood glucose levels isn’t as simple as eating less and restricting calories. To make matters worse, fasting, although a popular method of weight loss and health, is a lot more complicated than not eating.

In this we have experts such as Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Alan Goldhamer, and Mike Mutzel sharing their insights and research on how to approach fasting for weight loss and improved metabolic health.

Dr Jason Fung is a nephrologist and the co-founder of the Fasting Method program which has helped millions of people lose weight and reverse type 2 diabetes. Unlike many nephrologists, Dr Fung supports and encourages the education of diabetes and weight loss being possible through intermittent fasting. He’s a NY Times bestselling author and respected voice on fasting, weight loss, nutrition, and type 2 diabetes.

Dr. Alan Goldhamer is the founder of TrueNorth Health Center. His clinic focuses on healing patients through plant based vegan diets, and clinical fasting. Dr Goldhamer is also the author of The Pleasure Trap, Mastering the Hidden Force that Undermines Health & Happiness.

Mike Mutzel is a functional medicine consultant in the natural product industry. He’s obsessed with evidence-based natural medicine and is the author of the Bell Fat Effect. Mike is also the founder of High Intensity Health.

    Dr Jason Fung is today's Dr John Sarno 1923 – 2017 (pioneer of the mind body connection & healing back pain). The visionaries, those willing to go against the flow, that we all need. Thank you Dr Fung.

    Wow Girtian therapy has been proven to kill cancer from day one.

    I Know people that have used it healed their cancer and they never use chemo one time.

    Check the research.They are finding more and more. That by using food alone is a million times better than the poison from the sick care industry. I am only slightly exaggerated the numbers

    How low does the insulin have to be for the body to start tapping on stored energy? And at what point during a longer fast does the insulin start to go down? My fasting insulin is very high 🙁

    Come as you are!! Jesus loves you!!❤️❤️🙏
    I AM the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.
    The simplicity IN Christ willing none perish
    BELIEVE and put your faith and trust in Him alone. We are all sinners in need of a Saviour.

    For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
    17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
    18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

    Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.”

    Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

    For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek
    THE GOSPEL WHICH SAVES

    Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
    2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
    3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
    4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.
    Jesus , the second person in the Godhead, God the Father, God the Son, Jesus, God the Holy Spirit. One God in three persons, the word who was with God and was God ( Jesus) the Christ, who is the eternally existing Son of God, came by blood and water , who is eternal life, fully God , fully man , layed down His Glory was born of the Virgin Mary through the Holy Spirit , lived a perfect , sinless life, shed His sinless blood, to pay the sin debt for the world, He died was buried and rose on the third day

    In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise.

    For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
    9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
