- 193 - Fasting Q&A with Dr Jason Fung: The Dawn Effect, Smart Scales, Kombucha, Cortisol/Stress, Nausea from Salt, Fat Adaptation, and More.
Episode #154
In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community:
- If someone is glucose sensitive, not insulin resistant, with an A1C of under 5.0, would they still have a dawn effect happen? If they did, what would the dawn effect bump in glucose possibly be? [02:12] I have a smart scale. In addition to weight, it has metabolic rate, body fat %, etc. I am interested in knowing if the relative changes (as opposed to the absolute number) would be useful to know. Similarly, I am interested in reducing visceral fat. If that number goes down by 10%, might that be a helpful indicator about the direction that things are going in and whether what I am doing is working? [05:56] What’s your take on kombucha? [09:35] I read a book named “The One Minute Cure: The Secret to Healing Virtually All Diseases.” It is a therapy with H2O2 in Food Grade of 35% or 3% (diluted in Distilled Water). I have tried this therapy and every time I test my blood sugar after 30 minutes of taking it, it lowers my blood sugar by more than 17 mg/dL. I was wondering if you have studied this therapy and what you think about it? [11:32] I find it easier to fast during work. However, I have a stressful job with long hours. Could cortisol/high stress be negating the benefits of the fast? Would I be better off using TRE and save fasting for my off days? [13:08] This month’s TFM Group Challenge is ‘Giving Up Your Vices’. Megan’s first video discussed A2 dairy. What is your take on this and what is the appropriate amount of A2 dairy each day? I know Coach Nadia says ‘sparingly’, but it’s not clear what that means when it comes to sheep/goat/A2 dairy. Does it matter what kind of dairy it is if it’s still all insulinogenic? [15:13] I’ve tried many different forms of salt and even tried making my own salt capsules, yet, without fail, I end up feeling nauseous shortly after taking it. Is there anything else I can do to quell the nausea? Do some people just not need salt or have a medical reason why salt makes them nauseous? Is there anything else I can try? [19:06] How high should a [blood sugar] spike be after meals, and when should your blood sugar levels return to the pre-meal range? [21:46] How do I know when I’m fat-adapted?[23:37] If someone has high triglycerides, is it a pretty good guess that they also have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease? [26:07] Do you have any tips on how I can do intermittent fasting without losing weight? My goal is to lower my A1C and be less dependent on medication while improving my health. [28:02] I am a lifetime vegetarian and have always eaten very clean, whole foods. I have been fasting since 1979 and I easily fast for weeks, change up the fasting protocol, etc, but the pounds just will not budge. How can I use fasting to drop this weight? [30:39]

Tue, 21 May 2024 - 42min - 191 - Fasting Q&A with Megan Ramos: Hair Thinning, Plateaus, Caffeine Sensitivity, Digestion Speed, and Keto Breath
Episode #152
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan Ramos answers some of your fasting questions:
1. I have just started fasting and am struggling to extend my fasts to 36 hours as I have two small children and we eat dinner together every day. Any tips? [01:57]
2. I do IF five days a week, a 36-hour fast and no fasting on the other two days. I feel fantastic and the weight is coming off, However, my hair has recently started thinning. I’ve heard this could be because fasting is a stressor on the body. I also work out 3-4 times a week and have two jobs, one of which is pretty stressful and high pressure. Is the weekly 36-hour fast just too much for me? [07:40]
3. I’ve progressed into a 3x42 protocol over three months and the NSVs and systemic healing has been miraculous! I’ve not seen a weight or body-fat decrease over the last four weeks after a 25-pound loss in the first few months. Is a plateau this long normal? [12:25]
4. Would you recommend leaning heavily into fat fasting when initially trying to establish a pattern of therapeutic fasting? I am finding it easier to do longer fasts (24 hours+) when I fat fast beforehand, but have some concern that maybe this could have long-term implications. It almost seems like ‘dieting’ which will end once the therapeutic level of fasting ends and then I will have to reestablish another eating pattern? [16:16]
5. I quit coffee a few months ago as it was affecting my sleep and I would also experience extreme sugar cravings 1-2 hours after drinking it. Since stopping coffee, I have noticed similar effects with green and black tea plus I also get the jitters and an increased heart rate. Most recently, I have been getting insomnia after eating dark chocolate. Clearly, I am becoming more sensitive to caffeine! Is this common for fasters? Or maybe it is age related? I’m a 43-year-old woman. [20:50]
6. I have been fasting for almost two years (alternate-day fasting). I notice it takes longer for me to digest meals now vs before I started fasting. Is this normal and does this mean it also takes me longer to get into a fasted state now? [24:59]
7. I need help with keto breath/tongue! I’ve tried drinking more water, mouth wash, tongue scrapers, food-grade hydrogen peroxide mixed with water. No change! I makes me gag so much I just want to eat to make it stop! The only thing I haven’t tried is oil pulling. Help! [28:51]

Tue, 30 Apr 2024 - 20min - 188 - Fasting Q&A with Dr Jason Fung: Broccolini, Metformin, Exercise and Weight Loss, and More
Episode #149
In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community:
- I’ve heard you’ve written an amazing book called, “The Cancer Code.” I haven’t read it yet, but wanted to hear your thoughts on broccolini being an anti-cancer food. I understand it contains Sulforaphane, Indole-3-carbinol (I3C), Glucosinolates, Vitamin C, and fiber. Should I concentrate on cruciferous vegetables, like broccolini, or just work on getting a balanced diet? What are your thoughts? [02:14] I have a little confusion about the difference between taking metformin and injecting insulin. From what I've read in your books it's that insulin is going to make type 2 diabetes worse in the long run. I already know that that’s not the answer to reverse type two diabetes and I’m not taking either one. Like insulin, will metformin also be detrimental to treat T2D or is there a difference between one and the other - and why, please? [05:27] What do they mean by 'immunoreactive insulin'? [12:06] Does the liver respond negatively to the ingestion of supplements? In other words, do the supplements cause any changes in my insulin? [14:52] I started TRE (beginning Jan this year) at about 135 pounds and am now doing 24-hour fasts with OMAD and 2MAD. I have completed a 42-hour fast and will probably try another one this week. I am eating whole foods. Avocados are my miracle!!! I do not snack between meals. My body is still releasing weight with what I am doing now and I feel I have another 5 pounds to go. How will I know when to stop shedding the weight? [18:13] Can you clarify the role of physical activity and exercise in weight loss? In The Obesity Code, you shared that a number of rigorous clinical trials demonstrate that exercise contributes minimally, if at all, to weight loss. However, zone 2 exercise is promoted for its'fat burnin' benefits. I plan to continue exercising for its health-promoting benefits but I would really like to hear your take on the extent to which it can assist with weight loss, and what exercise types you recommend for weight loss. [21:56] On non-fasting days, what is Dr. Fung’s chosen style of eating? [29:46]

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. (Jane from Toronto) [18:09]

Tue, 26 Mar 2024 - 34min - 183 - Fasting Q&A with Dr Jason Fung: Ketones, Fat Adaptation, Carb Loading Before Surgery, Survival Genes, Dairy, and More
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]

3. I’ve been fasting for two years. I lost 20 pounds the first year but gained 10 back in the second. I try to do 42-hour fasts but end up breaking it around the 20-hour mark. My blood glucose numbers are up and my weight isn’t coming down. I am a 45-year-old female. I am ready to give up. Please help. [13:50]
4. I was recently diagnosed with vulvar lichen sclerosus (LS). My gynaecologist says that it is believed to be an autoimmune disorder affecting the skin of the vulva. It is a horrifying condition that can cause changes to the architecture of the vulva, intense itching, tearing of the skin, etc. I’ve never known anyone to have this condition, but my gynaecologist says that she has a lot of patients with LS. Have any of your clients seen improvement in their LS? Is there a particular fasting protocol that you would recommend. I’m just devastated by this diagnosis. [21:43]
5. I understand that snacking (even with healthy foods) is a bad idea because it keeps your insulin levels up so how many meals would you suggest is the most effective during a typical 8-hour window in a 16/8 IF regime? Or maybe a better way to look at it is how many hours should I leave between meals to allow insulin to go back down? [26:55]

Tue, 06 Feb 2024 - 40min - 175 - Hot Topic: Therapeutic Fasting vs Fasting Sometimes
Episode #137
In this episode Nadia and Terri dive deep into why so many of us struggle to make progress and therefore stay stuck in the uncomfortable space of starting/stopping, or how many of us push ourselves so hard that we can't sustain consistently to see the lasting results.
Tune in to find out how our brain can sometimes trip us up when it comes to motivation because of its love for novelty, and why so many people start the New Year with good intentions but struggle to maintain that momentum for long enough to see lasting results.
How do we change our mindset to overcome these issues? Terri shares some great analogies to help adjust our mindset and behaviour and take confident steps towards the success we have been looking for, and Nadia reinforces the importance of taking a step-by-step approach towards therapeutic fasting that starts with, of course, TRE (time-restricted eating).

Episode #34
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. I'd like to fast primarily for therapeutic reasons (mental health and autophagy especially) and aim to do three 42s. My issue is raging ketones! How high is too high when it comes to BK and at what point should I break a fast for this reason? [01:18]
2. What is the best protocol for weight loss? [11:58]
3. I am a TOFI and a pre-diabetic. What fasting can I do to reverse my T2D without losing weight? I noticed when I do extended fasting of 42 hours I lose too much weight. [21:18]
4. The one issue that I'm having the hardest time with is my mood during an extended fast (longer than 24 hours). I feel extremely irritable, agitated, quick tempered, & anxious, which is not how I normally am. I don't know if it's my cortisol levels, or what. Is this common? [31:08]

Tue, 28 Jun 2022 - 36min - 170 - Fasting Q&A: Chia Seeds, ADF for Weight Loss, Gut Flora, and Stress Hormones
Episode #32
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. I know you have mentioned chia seeds (in water) as a way to gently break your fast, but can I use chia seeds as a training wheel during a fast because they give a feeling of fullness? [07:25]
2. I do 18:6 daily and a 48 each week. It took much effort to get my gut health stabilised. I have completed a couple of 5-day fasts in the past, but now I am worried about what a 5-day fast does to the good guys in my gut. With no fibre coming in, how do they survive? I don’t want to compromise my good gut flora, but I’d like the benefits of autophagy and stem cell generation. [13:44]
3. I’ve been ADF’ing for 6 weeks. I typically fast 36hrs, only consuming plain water, salt, and 2-3 cups of black coffee. I am 46 and have had seven pregnancies. I have hardly lost any weight, only a couple pounds. What am I doing wrong? On my eating days, I eat 3 meals over 12hrs, lower carb but not keto, and add 2 Ts cream to my coffee those mornings. I mostly do not snack. I find it very hard to fast 42hrs. Would three 42-hr fasts be more effective than ADF with 36hr fasts? Does it take a while for results when peri-menopausal? [18:42]
4. As someone “recovering” from PTSD, I have been taught skills and tricks to reduce cortisol and adrenaline. From a recent podcast I learnt that fasting increases these and I am now concerned that it may create effects counter to what I am trying to achieve to reduce PTSD symptoms. Have you had patients with a similar concern? Is there perhaps a difference in duration, or other helpful hormones released at the same time, to differentiate it from the perpetually elevated stress hormones after PTSD? [28:21]

Episode #30
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. I am a nurse, and I work night shift (7pm-7am). I usually follow a 20/4 IF eating schedule on my days off, but I’m struggling to figure out how to fast on my night shift schedule when I work 2-3 nights in a row. Do you have any suggestions for fasting and a night shift schedule? [01:06]
2. Does coffee with heavy whipping cream break a fast? [08:38]
3. What and how do you eat when doing a "fat fast”? Do you still recommend following TRE? [15:51]
4. Most doctors will order fasting glucose and insulin, cortisol, and A1C to check for insulin resistance. Are there other markers (laboratory or clinical) to know if your IR is improving after, say, a year of fasting? [24:29]

Tue, 24 May 2022 - 48min - 165 - Fasting Q&A: eTRE, Weight-Loss Plateaus, Fasting and Menstrual Cycles, Dawn Phenomenon
Episode #27
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. I’ve heard Dr. Fung say to skip breakfast, but recently in one of Dr. Nadia’s groups, I heard her recommend early time-restricted eating. Could you clarify this for me? [00:47]
2. This coming February I will have been fasting for two years. I fast 18 hours a day and exercise almost daily. I have hit the world's biggest plateau the last 6 months and just cannot lose any more inches/fat/weight. I'm definitely becoming more toned, but I'm not really getting smaller. I'm wondering if I'm at my body's resting weight or if I need to shake things up with my eating? I eat very balanced meals with protein, carbs and veggies. I could probably stand to NOT eat a cookie here or there. Since listening to your podcast, I have been sprinkling in one 24-hour fast a week and this week I am aiming for two 24-hour fasts. [08:26]
3. I've been fasting for a couple of months. I have read a lot about the fasting cycle with the menstrual cycle and I have heard you say it's easier to do longer fasts in the first week of the menstrual cycle. That's actually what I'm doing - three 36 or 42-hour fasts in my first week. The rest of my cycle I do 18-hour fasts and only 12-hour fasts in my 4th week. With that «protocol» I have lost 20 pounds in 3 months, but should I limit those longer fast to the first week of my cycle? [14:13]
4. How much does gluconeogenesis/the dawn phenomenon impact blood sugars early in the morning? A family member who is fasting and is type 2 diabetic has blood sugars of 150 or so at 6am but 95 later in the morning during a fast. I suspect the dawn phenomenon but I have no idea how much it could impact someone’s blood sugars. [20:20]

Tue, 17 May 2022 - 26min - 164 - Fasting Q&A: Calorie Deficit, Vegan Keto, Acronyms, Cooking Oils
Episode #26
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. Does fasting for fat loss still require a caloric deficit? [01:08]
2. I've had success eating keto (traditional) with IF, and I've had success with a vegan diet (not keto) until I started relying too much on carbs like beans, rice, and potatoes. Do you think a vegan keto diet is a realistic way to eat while incorporating IF? [09:01]
3. I’ve heard a few acronyms that I don’t recognize: PCOS, CGM and IBS (although IBS is more common and not specific to fasting). For those used to fasting and the TFM Community discussions, these are common terms. However, I believe that those not versed would be left wondering about them and possibly looking them up. I know I had to look up PCOS when I first heard it. [13:56]
4. I’m confused about which cooking oils are inflammatory and why. Can you please address this? [20:48]

Tue, 10 May 2022 - 28min - 163 - Fasting Q&A: Maintenance, Metformin, Optimizing Fasting Days, Weight Gain While Fasting
Episode #25
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. I have been fasting on and off for years and had moments of great weight-loss success, but it seems like as soon as I stop I put the weight back on, regardless of how well I'm eating. Am I just fated to have to continue fasting forever to keep my weight down? [00:40]
2. My doctor wants me to start taking metformin, but I would like to incorporate fasting to bring down my A1C which is currently 7.1%. What are the benefits (if any) of using metformin for someone who is just starting on their fasting journey? Can you even take metformin on fasting days? [06:24]
3. Every fast is different. Why is that? I have been experiencing
euphoria and loads of energy while fasting, and fasting has been
wonderful. I have also been down, tired, and with no energy while
fasting. I'm thinking that the answer could have something to do with
water and electrolytes. What can I do to optimize the fast
and feel euphoric more often? [16:10]
4. Have you ever had someone gain weight while fasting? Are there common mistakes that people make if this is the case? [22:01]

Episode #23

1. You say not to nurse coffee that contains cream. Is it OK to nurse a cup of black coffee or hot tea (without caffeine in it) during your fast? [02:20]
2. During the week before menstruation should I not fast at all? I would love a guide that gives a general idea of what types of fasting are recommended related to where a woman is in her cycle, keeping hormones in mind? [10:47]
3. I decided to do time-restricted eating for life and it's working for me, but I don't understand why it's working for me? [20:03]
4. Is resistance training in a fasted state, specifically longer fasts of 72 hours, a waste of time when there’s no intake of protein before and after sessions to trigger muscle protein synthesis? [27:55]

Tue, 05 Apr 2022 - 46min - 158 - Fasting Q&A: Post-Menopausal Bleeding, Loose Stools After Breaking Fasts, No Gallbladder and Keto, Hashimoto’s and Fasting
Episode #20
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. I’ve been in menopause for over two and a half years and doing IF for the past year. I have done a couple of extended fasts. I belong to a women’s fasting group on Facebook and have read that a couple of women in menopause have started menstruating again and, weirdly enough, that just happened to me. Is this because of IF and have you seen this happen? Please tell me it does not mean I have a chance of getting pregnant! [01:22]
2. I get diarrhea about an hour after eating on OMAD. I have tried to eat a small amount and wait for a half hour, or longer, before eating again. I try to chew thoroughly and slowly, but nothing seems to help. [04:57]
3. Is keto and a higher fat intake (even though its healthy fats) without a gallbladder harder on my pancreas to process fats or should I maybe try a Mediterranean diet and fasting. I have a lot of weight to lose. [09:53]
4. Does fasting do more harm than good for people with Hashimoto's? [17:26]

Episode #19
In today's episode, Megan and Nadia FINALLY interview the co-founder of The Fasting Method Program, Dr. Jason Fung.
Dr. Fung talks about the benefits of health coaching and highlights the connection between diet and emotions. Hear Jason's take on how our habits have changed over the last few decades, influenced by external factors and how this "new environment sets us up to fail” and not that our "will-power" is now weaker. Learn from Dr. Fung how "obesity spreads like a virus" and how community is so much more important than even diet and fasting for success: "Trying to do it yourself is impossible" ..."it takes a village".
Jason, Megan and Nadia talk about the TFM community and the power of peer support vs. the "top-down" medical approach and why the Community members have been so successful in maintaining their healing and weight loss over the years.

Episode #18
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. When you refer to lowering insulin level, is that the same as lowering blood sugar level? If it is not the same, how do we know our insulin level is lowering? [08:36]
2. Do you know if intermittent fasting plays a role in improving endothelial function? More specifically, helping with erectile dysfunction? [16:29]
3. I was just wondering what were your thoughts on working out during a fast? I have read other sources stating that working out after hour 16 (when fat burning is ramping up) would help to burn more fat? [22:32]
4. Would three 42-hour fasts be more effective than ADF with 36-hour fasts? Does it take a while for results if in peri-menopausal? [34:06]

Tue, 18 Jan 2022 - 29min - 147 - Fasting Q&A: Flavored Coffee, Feeling Cold, Menstruation, and Switching Up Your Fasts
Episode #9
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. I find that drinking black regular/unflavoured coffee is hard (on my stomach as well as well as on my stamina!!!) but I find it easier to drink black flavored coffee so that I don't have to add milk to it which would be my preference. By flavored, I mean the beans are flavoured (the company says that even their flavored coffees have only 5 calories in a cup of coffee). I do not add flavored syrups. Is it OK to drink flavored coffee or does it break my fast? [01:36]
2. Fasting during menstrual cycle? [22:45]
3. Feeling so cold during a fast that it stops you continuing. [14:18]
4. Since I’m not losing weight on the 16:8 fasts after two months, I want to start 24 hours of fasting. What will happen in, let’s say a year, when I hopefully lose weight and get off some meds and go back to just 16:8. Will I regain the weight and will 24 hours of fasting be a lifetime thing? [33:49]

Episode #005
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. When should you end an extended fast? [00:30]
2. I am starting a 30:16 cycle and hope to move onto a 3x42. I have about 10 pounds more to lose. I feel very satisfied with one meal a day and 800 calories, but I am concerned that I might damage my metabolism if I go very long on OMAD (one meal a day). Is that something that is OK or should I make sure I get more calories 3 or 4 days a week? [09:08]
3. When doing one-meal-a-day, how much should you eat and/or how long should you eat? [17:50]
4. When it is said, “Intermittent fasting is not about diet,” why are we told to do keto or low-carbohydrate diets? [24:56]

Tue, 09 Nov 2021 - 39min - 138 - Introducing The Fasting Method Podcast
In today's episode, we share our journey from illness to being able to help the people we work with lose weight and reverse the chronic and "incurable" type 2 diabetes.
Truth be told, we started this podcast because there is so much misinformation out there about intermittent fasting. Today our team at The Fasting Method has worked with over 16,000 adults worldwide helping them achieve sustainable weight loss and improve blood glucose levels through various fasting strategies and real, whole-food nutrition principles. We believe we have a responsibility to bust these fasting myths and set the record straight.
And we're not just practioners of fasting; it's saved our lives. We've struggled with obesity, type 2 diabetes, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and fatty liver disease. We were able to take the lessons we learned throughout our own journeys and apply them, first to our clincial practice and then to our online community, and now we want to bring them to you in this podcast.

Tue, 16 Jan 2024 - 34min - 135 - Fasting Q&A: IBS, Raised Cholesterol, Fat-Loss Maintenance, Busting Plateaus, and Erythritol
Episode #134
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Nadia answers some of your fasting questions:
1. I have IBS-C and a gluten sensitivity, along with ever changing hormones as I am perimenopausal. I’m trying to find the best regimen to help. Of course weight loss would be nice but my main goal is to rid myself of abdominal pains, severe constipation, and nausea. [01:43]
2. My mom has type 2 diabetes and is taking Metformin. I have convinced her to do at least 16 hours of fasting a day and she has been doing this for 5 months or so. She says her glucose levels are much more stable but her cholesterol has gone up. Should she worry? [09:21]
3. Once you have reached your fat-loss goal, how do you transition to a maintenance schedule without gaining back the weight? And what would a good fat-loss maintenance schedule be? [15:10]
4. I started fasting about a year and a half ago with a very mixed schedule and was successful in losing about 25 lbs in 8 months. Since then I’ve been at a plateau for another 8 months. I find it hard to not eat at least once per day. What are your thoughts on ADF with the 500 cal vs without the 500 cals? [17:35]
5. I don’t think I’ve heard you discuss the sweetener erythritol. I realize that it may still not be great for sugar cravings, but does it affect insulin? If I had a small amount in my tea, would it break my fast? I’ve seen conflicting messages? [25:16]

Fri, 15 Dec 2023 - 10min - 128 - Fasting Q&A: Food Quality, Plant-Based Diets, and Fiber
Episode #127
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Nadia answers some of your fasting questions:
1. What are your thoughts on food quality? Should I try and eat grass-fed meats and organic vegetables? How important is it to switch to this top-quality food alongside fasting? [02:21]
2. Is bacon a processed meat? Is having non grass-fed bacon ok because, here in India, we can’t get grass-fed bacon? [05:41]
3. Do you have any tips for fasting on a vegetarian diet? My partner is a vegetarian and I am interested in cutting out meat also, but I am not sure about the nutritional value of meat substitutes like tofu and other plant-based proteins. [07:28]
4. I would love to hear more about fasting with a plant-based diet. I don't avoid fruit or below-ground veggies. I eat nuts and seeds, but no dairy. I have cut out most highly processed foods and I am doing TRE, usually a 16-18 hour fast. There is so much conflicting information about diet! [09:57]
5. I follow a high-fat, low-carb diet on my eating days. I seem to struggle to keep my carbs low while trying to get in my daily fiber. I try to eat as much high-fiber food as possible (like avocados, chia seeds, and vegetables) at each meal. How do you add fiber to your diet while staying low-carb? Should I consider fiber supplements? [13:59]
6. Being that fiber helps to slow the digestion of sugars and fats (therefore decreasing blood glucose spikes), would you recommend taking a daily fiber supplement? What about when fasting? Does it technically break a fast even though the body is not digesting it? [18:15]

Fri, 24 Nov 2023 - 10min - 122 - Fasting Q&A: Feeling Cold, Night Sweats, Gestational Diabetes, and Eating During Pregnancy
Episode #121
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Nadia answers some of your fasting questions:
1. I used to do 16-8 IF and have now started doing ADF. How can I avoid malnutrition doing this new pattern? [01:45]
2. I am planning on doing 24-hour fasts three days a week for fat loss. For this schedule, you typically recommend (on eating days) to still fast 16 hours and only eat two meals. But, on my eating days, would it be better to not fast at all and eat three meals to keep up my metabolism? If not, how do I maintain my metabolism during this process? [08:08]
3. I am doing three 42-hour fasts a week. On my fasting days, every time I reach 24 hours into my fast, I start feeling cold. What is the process behind that reaction?
I’ve also found that since I started fasting eight weeks ago, my perimenopause symptoms have increased, namely I experience more and more severe night sweats. Is this just a coincidence or could fasting be increasing these symptoms. [14:06]
4. I started my fasting journey after listening to your podcast, which I love. I'm now up to 24 hours three times a week and looking forward to doing longer ones soon!
My question for you is about gestational diabetes. I’ve had it with both of my kids and was told that eating healthy has nothing to do with getting it. I’m curious what you think about this. I’m determined to get healthy through fasting to prevent T2D in the future and am hoping to prevent gestational diabetes as well as pre eclampsia (I had hypertension with my first and pre eclampsia with my second!) Is there a way to prepare my body to prevent either of these with my next pregnancy. [20:41]
5. Do pregnant women have to eat more than three good meals a day? I get full so quickly and I’m not sure I can eat more than three meals a day. I normally ate two meals a day when I fasted before pregnancy. [25:05]

Tue, 14 Nov 2023 - 32min - 119 - Bitesize: $1M Motivation Analogy
Episode #118
In this Bitesize episode, Terri shares a motivation story to help you really hone in on the WHYs that will keep you focused on changing your behavior patterns and, ultimately, reach your goals.
Experience has probably shown most of us that without very clear reasons to choose behaviors that may be challenging or inconvenient, we typically resort to falling back into the old patterns or shortcuts that never allow us to reach our goals and instead leave us feeling defeated.
What is your $1M WHY or collection of WHYs that motivate you to take the challenge, do the steps, or forego a convenience?

Fri, 27 Oct 2023 - 14min - 114 - Fasting Q&A: Heartburn, Cramps, Bad Breath, Rosacea, and Body Odor
Episode #113
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Nadia answers some of your fasting questions:
1. I get heartburn in the afternoon/evening when I am doing an extended fast (24-48hr). Any suggestions on what might help? [02:06]
2. I’ve always had a lot of charley horse type of leg cramps and abdominal muscle cramps. usually these happen more when I’m doing a low-carb diet. However, when I’m fasting these muscle cramps happen far more frequently. The cramps seem to improve and not be as frequent if I am well hydrated but they get worse if I drink a lot of coffee and also of I drink wine on my eating days. Should I be adding more salt perhaps? [07:50]
3. I get restless legs (and arms) most nights when I am trying to get to sleep. Someone suggested taking magnesium. Might this help? [10:40]
4. I get really bad breath when I am fasting. I’m now a bit paranoid about kissing my partner. Help! [21:23]
5. I have rosacea that is managed by diet (not eating certain things) and careful skin care. When I hit 24-26 hours into my fasts, my rosacea goes crazy! My face is red hot, and my skin is bumpy - it’s as bad as if I had eaten hot peppers. It usually lasts 2-3 hours and then goes away. My esthetician says maybe it was an allergy to the green tea I drink in the evenings, but I switched out teas and even cut it out and it still happened. Fasting is the only consistent thing that causes this flare up and it can’t be a coincidence. Any idea why this happens? [28:01]
6. I have terrible body order coming from my armpits when I fast. I've had to buy special odor-eliminating laundry detergent to get rid of the smell from my clothes. Do you think its just part of fasting and losing weight? I've heard of fat holding estrogen. Is it releasing that IVF estrogen finally (approx 5 years previous) or is it just a perimenopausal changing hormones thing? I don't think the latter because it began when I started ADF again and I don't smell on eating days. [23:58]

Fri, 29 Sep 2023 - 12min - 106 - Hot Topic: Why Desire Is Not Enough on Its Own
Episode #105
In this episode, Nadia and Terri discuss a question that comes up daily in their work with clients and Community members - “Why am I struggling to do the things that are required to reach the goals I know I want?”
They talk about how wanting a health goal or weight loss is typically not enough to drive the challenge of doing new behaviors, but instead how most of us need to work on our beliefs and our confidence in order to make these behaviors stick.

Tue, 26 Sep 2023 - 39min - 105 - Bitesize: A Meal Is a Meal Is a Meal
Episode #104
In this Bitesize episode, Terri addresses a topic she has been asked numerous times recently--"What should I do if I have a hard time stopping once I start eating?"
Though there are physiological and practical things to consider ("Have I eaten enough?" or, "Am I eating things that drive my hunger?"), Terri encourages listeners to work on their mindset about what makes a meal as well as sticking to only eating meals.

Fri, 22 Sep 2023 - 09min - 104 - Fasting Q&A: Eating and Fasting Patterns for Kids, Fasting After Weight-Loss Surgery, Bloating, and More
Episode #103
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Nadia answers some of your fasting questions:
1. I have two preschool aged children and I really want to set them up for life with a healthy relationship with food. Obviously, I don’t think we should fast children but I have noticed that their lives revolve around their mealtimes and snacks. Is TRE something that would benefit them? At what age should we implement this? [03:21]
2. I have 12 and 16-year-old girls. There are so many body image influences out there. I am concerned if they see me doing extended fast that they will not understand why I am doing it or that they might develop an eating disorder. [13:16]
3. My daughter is 13 years old, tall, slender and active/a multi-sport athlete with no weight-related concerns. She started her period about 6 months ago and luckily it’s been pretty regular and she’s managing it very well. The only hormonal issue I’m noticing so far is that she’s struggling pretty badly with acne on her face and upper back. I just want her to be happy and healthy and to fuel her body appropriately, especially during all these hormonal changes her body is going through. [22:42]
4. My wife says she can't fast with me because she had weight loss surgery (about two years ago). She would like to do low carb/keto-ish/fasting with me but says she can't eat enough in a meal to last her 5 or 6 hours. Is there a protocol for fasting with a smaller stomach or it is not recommended? [30:07]
5. When I fast for 36 hours (which up to now has been my longest fasting period) I gain five pounds during the day when I start eating again. I feel bloated and very unwell. I suspect it is water retention as it goes away on the next day. Is this normal? [35:20]
6. My question relates to a previous episode where Nadia mentioned that the smell of food can cause an insulin response. As someone who has insulin resistance and happens to be a professional chef, that news was alarming! Is this actually the case, or did I hear that wrong? [38:34]

Fri, 25 Aug 2023 - 11min - 96 - Fasting Q&A: Calorie Deficit, Vegan Keto, Acronyms, Cooking Oils (REPLAY)
Episode #95 (#26)
SUMMER BREAK
Megan, Nadia, and Terri are taking a summer break during August but didn't want to leave you without something to listen to so they have chosen some great episodes to replay.
In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:
1. Does fasting for fat loss still require a caloric deficit? [01:08]
2. I've had success eating keto (traditional) with IF, and I've had success with a vegan diet (not keto) until I started relying too much on carbs like beans, rice, and potatoes. Do you think a vegan keto diet is a realistic way to eat while incorporating IF? [09:01]
3. I’ve heard a few acronyms that I don’t recognize: PCOS, CGM and IBS (although IBS is more common and not specific to fasting). For those used to fasting and the TFM Community discussions, these are common terms. However, I believe that those not versed would be left wondering about them and possibly looking them up. I know I had to look up PCOS when I first heard it. [13:56]
4. I’m confused about which cooking oils are inflammatory and why. Can you please address this? [20:48]
