How to Reverse Fatty Liver Disease Naturally | Jason Fung
Fatty liver disease is a growing epidemic, and a growing cause of liver destruction. Dr. Jason Fung reviews how fatty liver disease develops and shares insights on how to reverse this disease naturally, without needing drugs or surgery. Fatty liver disease is mainly a dietary disease, and therefore, the treatment involves fixing the diet. Check out my blog at / drjasonfung

Doc thank you this impo. I have this trouble i need diet fasting or low carb. Im not alcoholic not smoker but my liver is not good it comes out in xray when im going to my yearly medical check up
Appreciate Video clip! Apologies for butting in, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you heard about - Loowarn Inconceivable Desire (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a smashing one off guide for stopping diabetes type 2 without the headache. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my m8 after many years got excellent results with it.
Hindus have been practicing fasting for centuries and have known all this for thousands of years . Welcome to the program
@@samrat55934 starvation from poverty doesn’t count
How much starch/carbohydrates did they feed them to get overweight? (1 bowl = 130 calories) 10 bowls of white rice in a day is 1300 calories. And you are still calorie deficient below the 2200-2400 daily calorie. That's 3 bowls of rice in the morning, 3 bowls of rice at lunch and 4 bowls of rice for dinner.
A year ago a CT scan diagnosed me with a severe fatty liver. My scan this week, a year later and after a year on keto simply noted: "upper abdomen unremarkable". No more fatty liver.
Where can I find the diet you specifically used?
Very happy for you.
Please share your symptoms and what stage you were at 🖤🖤🖤
How much weight did you lose? And how ?
@Jenny June please name those herbs and how to use.thnx
Anyone else watch these videos on thier fasting days for motivation? I do, even bought all of his books on audible. 🙂👍
Me too, love it! The longer videos are better for that though.
Absolutely!! I’ve relistened to hi Obesity Code Podcasts TONS of times because they motivate me SO MUCH! 😁🙋♀️
Yes sir!
Cole Robinson The Snake Diet is also good motivation on fast days.
@@misspriss5830 Cole will make you be so scared and ashamed to even think about breaking your fast😳
I was a teen in the late 1970's and most all of my friends drank either Coke or Pepsi. I distinctly remember the summer when all of the big soda companies switched from sugar to high fructose corn sweetener. We all noticed that Coke and Pepsi had a slightly different taste. The crazy thing is, those dates corelate with the increase in fatty liver disease from your chart.
Exactly!!!!
Those companies don't have our best interests in mind
Very interesting point
I was 12 and perfect but I thought I was fat. I started drinking tab until diet Coke Came out. Big mistake.
It is also the time when low fat movement happened.
I just got diagnosed with this today after getting pain in the liver area for the past few months. To all those who have just been diagnosed with the same, I wish you all the best. Let’s beat this and turn this around!
Sorry to hear that in the same situation, first thing first remove sugar and processed food from the table
Dont eat to much fruits also, only one apple 🍏...
@@genciduraku4340 green Apple 🍏 but blue berries, raspberries, lemon , lime , leafy green vegetables 🥬 all will help. Eat twice a day , steamed fish vegetables 🍅 and exercise plays a big role . No processed food and sugar at all.
Dont worry. It's completely curable. Avoid sweets, fatty foods, greasy, oily , fast foods, junk foods, non veg, ice cream, too spicy foods, alcohol completely. Take fruits vegetables oats rice . Use aloe vera juice. Very beneficial. Reduce weight if overweight. Take good sleep. It will completely cured. Best luck, Take care.
@@edumotivate3592 Thanks for your encouragement, yes 👏🏻 I have stopped all sugar, fatty stuff, only oat, vegetables 🌶, fruit , lemon lime water and walking exercise helping for sure. Many thanks again.
I couldn't lose weight to save my life, but once I learned why I had a fatty liver, I successfully dieted from 313 pounds to 208 pounds in 10 months. I did this following Keto and intermittent fasting 19:5
@Ldy Della which type of carbs (name foods please) are you consuming?
Alsome...now thats getting it done ✔ 👏
@Ldy Della Thanks for this breakdown.
I love “deleted”! Well done!
🎉🎉🎉
Free cure... Big pharma must really hate this guy. But, we the people, love you Dr. Fung -- thanks!!! 💖💖💖
A bigger problem is the food industry and the lack of proper nutrition training for docs (they’re still based on old studies). Another huge problem would be patient compliance. Most people won’t do what they need to if it means giving up bad habits. They’d rather pop a pill. My mother is like that.
Yes, free! Fasting means eating less food in total. Also, the food industry keeps trying to overfed us. "Supersize...upsize" . Family blocks of chocolate have become daily snacks instead of occasional festive treats and have grown exponentially in size ;). Soda drinks sizes, movie theatre popcorn buckets, triple meat burgers et cetera.
@@aclassmedicine3306 Check the BBC documentary "The Men Who MadeUs Fat" talks about the food industry putting in fat sugar and salt into food which causes food addiction. They also use psychology to get people to purchase their products.Shocking information. People think Big Pharma is evil, well the Food and Beverage industry is worse.
Evil Big Pharma is keeping men alive into their 80s rather then dying at 62 like in the 60’s 70’s 80’s!!!! I bet you hate evil Corporations as well. Such An ignorant comment !!!
@@aclassmedicine3306family size blocks of chocolate… are for families.
People say they want more healthcare providers like Dr Fung, but two of my friends got in trouble for recommending fasting to their patients. One in particular, a nurse practitioner, was FIRED after a couple went and complained about him recommending fasting. The thing about it is that he is so caring and knowledgeable. I couldn’t believe it. I told him to open a practice or join a more supportive practice. Bottom line is that some people can’t fathom not stuffing their faces every hour of the day and prefer western medicine. What a shame!
Big Pharma hate people who explain you don't need their medication - and why you are better without their pills...
This is so tragic because more and more doctors who know exactly what to do would stay silent and hand out pills just to keep their jobs!
As I listen on other KZhead, doctors cannot recommend fasting...they do get in trouble...so backward...I think it is because fasting is starving the body and as a dr cannot recommend patients to starve...yeah go figure...
@@tienngo9993 - I believe the issue is that industry and pharma leading guidance. Is in the sense of pushing medicine and their own products one way or another! Government guides made by people with direct interest in the outcome! They sponsor conferences, medical seminars and a vast etc. for what?! To push their products! Up selling. It's that simple! Big pharma still "invite" MD to seminars in vacation paradise's! Covering full expenses for a couple of weeks! What's the return? I guess we all know! ;-) Personally I believe that's on the verge of criminal behavior, but I'm no one!
The sports bars will go out of business.
having fatty liver for over 25 years until 5 years ago it was reported to be severe. With low carb and intermittent fasting lost over 15kg now all the AST, ALT and GGT is back in normal range and no sign of fatty liver , thanks Dr. Fung 🙏
What did you do?
Please share what you did or eat you can help us all here
Did they do a US to confirm?
@@rickybenjieamador6254 I do low carb and 168 intermittent fasting 😃
After 5 months of keto no change in fatty liver
During my regular check-ups and related blood tests for about 15 years doctors have been remarking, "hmmm, looks like you have a fatty liver. Are you a heavy drinker?" When the answer was no, and I asked what was causing it, they would say, 'hmm, don't know. Well, there's no problem so just let me know if you do develop a problem." Then they would go on to comment that I had high triglycerides. I would ask why that is since I had adjusted my diet to reduce fat intake. "Hmmm, don't know." And they were happy I was eating more rice and pasta in place of meat. And so on, through the development of pre-diabetes up to the brink of diabetes. Thank goodness for the information available on youtube. I'm addressing the problems myself with the help of guys like Dr. Fung.
KZhead is full of healthy information and most of it is not harmful and does not hurt to try.
I totally relate with that! I also went trough the pre-diabetes...diabetes odyssey! Without a single word of advise regarding high carbs, etc. The ONLY thing was pills and more pills! This went for a few years! Until the absolutely null results. In fact not just null results, I was getting worse!! Lead me to try and find an answer. In this case on the internet. Dr. Fung videos came to the rescue and, and, and... Intermittent fasting and Keto= NO diabetes, high blood pressure, etc. It's that simple, cheap, fast and extremely effective! What's not to like it?! LOL 😂 Without some real expertise guidance. I continued doing the "traditional" diet. With all the carbs/starch, etc. Just like millions others, I was killing myself one bite at a time! Without knowing!
Same here, same problems, same reactions from MD's. Realized that most doctors only know what Big Pharma tells them. (I was a nurse for 47 years) Doctors used to treat diseases/illnesses - now they only treat symptoms ("There is a pill for that!") I brought that up with my internist, who admitted that I was correct. However, she is one of the rebel doctors who does not buy into all the Big Pharma hype - she told me that I could reverse my type 2 DM with a proper keto diet, and has recmmended various herbal products for other health concerns, some of which she uses herself. A rare doctor in this day and age!
Doctors don't care only if ur a celebrity or wealthy 😥
That is crazy. Thanks for sharing your story. Glad you took your health into your own hands.
I have been low sugar, low carb diet for 2 months. Lost 30 lbs ( still morbidly obese). Feel like I can do this forever. Thank you Dr. Sooooo much!
Well done on losing 30lbs that's quite an achievement
Well done!!! I’m also morbidly obese. Starting a journey now.
Thanks Jason! As a fellow physician and one who put on weight and likely had some fatty liver from the pandemic, I'm happy to inform you that intermittent fasting was a simple change to my life that has reversed my concerns in a matter of weeks. Plus, you are helping many of my patients as well, some even before I began enjoying your information this summer. All the best. Hope you get a million subscribers soon. Looking forward to reading your books too!
He did a lot didn’t he… really a life will lived Dr Jason Fung
How did you do it doc Douglas?
Knowing that Fructose goes straight to the liver (unlike any other ose) to congest the liver to induce fat gain in mammals before hibernation- where does fruit fit in to a low carb lifestyle
@douglasmark8949 did you do keto by chance?? I was just diagnosed and I am fasting but haven't gone full keto yet. Just wanted to know how you did yours?? Thanks
The "pandemic" made you put on weight or caused your fatty liver? ??? Start taking responsibility for your actions, that is the cure! I learned that little secret three years ago and reversed all my health problems. Even through he "pandemic", I lost 45 lbs and reached my goal. I am 78 yo.
I have been following Dr. Fung's suggestions for about 1 year. Most of my diabetic symptoms were gone in 10 weeks. But, I suppose that my insulin resistance is still a problem. When I relapse and eat a high carb meal, my fasting glucose level become elevated and stays elevated for about 1 week. On a more positive note, during my last annual checkup, my a1c and fasting glucose level are no longer considered diabetic or even prediabetic. So, I guest I am managing my condition well. I think I have a lot more work ahead of me. For people who are starting their journey, I would suggest patience.
Are you on any medication for the diabetic condition?
@@julianasalleh3304 I was on high blood pressure meds for half a year before getting diabetes. That totally freaked me out. Then I ran of an OMAD diet and exercised every morning. In 10 weeks, most of the diabetic symptoms went away. My BP dropped by about 50%. I am not on any medication right now.
There is alot of reports now fatty liver pancreas are causing diabetes now.once u reduce it the insulin resistance goes back to stable
God bless you Dr. Fung for the important information you freely give! Over a year ago, I had a fatty liver, was pre-diabetic, & cholesterol over 500. I found out about you through another YT channel called, "Beat Diabetes" & today, I am no longer pre-diabetic, my liver is healthy, & my cholesterol is down to 220! Praise God! Changing to a low carb eating style with intermittent fasting has dramatically changed my life! Thank you!
Can u plz help me
Any test to test for fatty liver? Thxs
@@MK-ru1dx ALT lab test & sonogram.

I'm happy for you. May you forever be blessed with excellent health.
I developed fatty liver two years back. Was searching for solution. I came across dr. Fung on you tube. And miracle happened. I had grade 2 fatty liver. Today I have a healthy liver. Thanks to dr. Fung. It all happened because of him. Love you doctor 💜
GREAT! KEEP WELL!👍
What exactly did you do - just cut out sugar and carbs?
@@hischild3759 Hey! I followed intermittent fasting, 16:8 pattern and continued a 40 min regular walking routine ...cutting down wheat totally and having a small amount of rice helped! Most importantly "just throw away refined vegetable oil and start using coconut oil or pure Ghee and apple cider vinegar (with the mother)" Hope this helps.💚
@@peace9537 Thankyou ☮️💚
@@sanahshaikh7062 Thanks so much!
With Intermittent fasting and a low-carb diet, we can reverse fatty liver disease! Thank you, sir!
My SGOT was 100 (normal range 0-40) and my SGPT is 115 (normal range 0-44) doctor diagnosed me a very serious fatty liver. I did fasting for 3 months (18-6) I avoided very sweet fruits and carbohydrates. I just eat more meats and fats, eggs, vegetables, fish and fish fats. Last week I got my blood test results. It’s amazing! My sgot now is 15 and my sgpt is 18. Also my A1c from 7.8 to 5.7. Everything back to normal my vision back to 20/20. Thank you Lord.
That is amazing! Congrats and thank you for sharing your story! It's very encouraging. In 3 months you reversed your fatty liver! They say usually it takes 3 years to do that.
Hello. How many time a week you did fasting?
@@richelleseradoy9998 as long as you can. The more you do fasting the more better. I did it almost everyday for three months. Just avoid the sugary foods and drink. I cut the rice and breads
Awesome testimony praise God 🙏🙌
Please, during your fasting hours, did you take water or your medication? I am on high-blood-pressure medication which is why my question
The amount of people who gave credit to Dr Fung, on all his youtube talks, how his advice help them in fighting obesity and diabetes speak for itself.
This man deserves a Nobel prize! I just love his free gift to us. His knowledge is priceless.
God has even a better free gift

10/02/20 my AST and ALT levels were 159 and 150 (normal levels are 0-41). Drs told me I had NAFLD. 😳 I stopped eating starchy carbs and refined carbs/sugars, I even stopped eating fruit. Started eating more veggies. On 4/29/21 my liver blood labs came back and are now 22 and 29. 😄 Thank you Dr. Fung.
Wahooo!!!! Congratulations!
What was your diet plan?can you please share
I was 140 on alt

Bless you 🙏 that's amazing.
They need to change the name "fatty liver" to "sugar liver" since it's really what this disease is all about
I vote for this
Sugar liver Supreme Sandra...Thanks! Thank you Dr Fung!
The problem with that name is we’d probably cannibalize each other…
Should be more specific. High fructose liver.
Very simply said but you nailed it there.
I have cut all carbs with low sugar since Dec 2020, I see significant change. Not only I lost weight but the blood sugar level is lowered too. I also practice intermittent fasting. Trust me! It all works out well👍😃
Do u also avoid eating fruits ...whole fruits ?
@@Healmyheart68 you can eat berries because it's low in sugar
Please share your symptoms and stage 🖤🖤🖤
I hear low carbs is dangerous
Who on earth would down vote this video? Insanity! Thank you Dr. Fung. Your teaching is so helpful and is making a difference in the world--it did in my life.
If it shows up in a person's feed unrequested they can give a thumbs down so that health/diet videos are not suggested to them again. A "thumb's down" still counts in a good way for Dr. Fung's metrics in the algorithm; it doesn't harm his ratings. 🙂👍
Uneducated doctors mostly. Their clinic about to shut down.
1% down votes are the absolute minimum that I have seen. Probably accidental clicks. I myself have accidentally clicked thumbs down. Great content by Dr Fung. His book is very good too!
Who cares who would dislike it doesn’t matter!
Big Pharma individuals. They lose money.
My sister was taken away from me by this disease. People, don´t normalize obesity, don´t encourage people to have bad eating habits, this is really serious and in the final stages it hurts so much because the person that you love does not look the same, it´s like they´re disintegrating while alive (and it really is that).
Heartbreaking. I'm so sorry
Truly sorry... so true obesity is looked upon as the person is to blame when too many obese people would be suffering through egos filling up pockets and not the truth like on here...
I'm so very sorry for your loss. I'm trying so hard to be a good example of health for my loved ones but preaching at them just seems to make them more defensive. It is truly sad. 😢
So sorry for your loss. 😢
Wish I knew this years ago when I was trying to save my mother. This disease is no joke.
Went from pre-diabetic to having absurdly good bloodwork in eight months, all thanks to Dr. Fung. I started following his advice from his KZhead channel. OMAD and the occasional 40-60 hr fast have done wonders. I’ve also lost weight (35 lb), which is cool, too!
Thank you for sharing. I'm just starting fasting
I was pre-diabetic and went on a pre-diabetic diet. Basically, no red meat, plenty of veggies and fruit. I quickly lost weight and my A1C dropped dramatically, in 6 months.

What was your diet ?
@@Emmanuel_Jayme just regular, carbs and all,
What fasting protocol did you follow?
Great. Diet?
Hi Doc Fung, I'm from Nigeria. Eating very low carb and intermittent fasting has helped me a lot. I was 135kg about 4 months ago, now I weigh 115kg. My blood sugar is gradually obeying too and my BP is now fully obedient. Thank you
Just come out from my gastroenterologist. My fatty liver is gone and everything is fantastic. Keto and IF changed my life. Thanks for sharing the true solution to liver diseases and obesity.

Thank you Dr Fung. We need a dozen more Drs with your passion to help us all heal...🙏🏽
Two more wonderful doctors are Dr Rob Cywes and Dr Ken Berry. They are just like Dr Fung and advocates for LCHF / Keto / Carnivore / IF way of life. Listenibg to these three has opened my eyes ! Check them out on here.
I click ' like' first, then listen. I been following Dr. Fung for last six years, changed my life for the better. Together with working out, my body is now like Adonis ( joke).
Me too!
Months ago I had bloodwork done for a checkup. I’m overweight (I’ll be 48 next month) and wanted to start taking care of myself. My triglycerides and liver enzymes were all in the normal range. Recently, I’ve been having discomfort on my right side and having issues with laying and sleeping on that side. I knew I had gallstones for years, but was worried something more was going on. I asked my dr for a complete abdominal ultrasound. I found out through the ultrasound that I have a non alcoholic fatty liver! The blood tests were not accurate. I am planning on fasting, trying to clean up my diet, herbs and acupuncture etc. I wanted share this in hopes someone sees this and gets an ultrasound. Also if you are 45 and over please get a carotid artery ultrasound. It’s super important to see how much plaque is in your system. Especially going to your brain. I found out my right carotid is actually slightly twisted and there is some plaque. The American diet is killing us. Fasting and clean eating are the answer
🥂
Is that you in picture? You look young .
2months back I diagnosed with grade 1 fatty liver and hepatomegaly. Then I switched to intermittent fasting. 16:8 or more. And Cut off oil food only. Yesterday I took liver function test and ultrasound. Touchwood my all reports are normal. Intermittent fasting really helps for liver issues. I'm going to continue this lifestyle forever.
Back on intermittent fasting. My body loves it. I've lost one dress size in the past month. I'm hoping for two more dress sizes so I can wear all my clothes again. These videos keep me motivated. I'm not in a rush. Slow and steady is the way. Something I can sustain long term. Will start adding exercise soon.
sounds good, any updates?
I've tried IF, but I get SO hungry. What do you do to get hunger off your mind? I'm a stay at home mom so I'm always home, most of the time, and have the kitchen/food at my disposal all day. It's so hard to feel hungry.

Please, please take heed of this, I was told I had fatty liver years ago, did not know anything about it and basically just carried on. Well then I was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver, oh ok, and carried on. Now , years down the track I find I have cancer of the liver,too old and not fit enough for surgery so will be getting some treatment, but have been warned, because of the cirrhosis, it will recur.

Thank you Dr. Pray for long and good day
He is really a life saver. Salute him ♥️🙏🏻
How are you dear
He’s telling the truth. Just two months ago I went and had my blood work done and the Dr said I had a fatty liver, it was 135. So I went back after the two month was up and had it checked again and my liver count went from 135 to 55. I went on a kito diet and lost 30 lbs from 278 now 248 and I feel so much better. We have to eat healthier cut down n carbs and sugar period.
I bet the dr acted like it was freakish occurrence, nothing to do with your efforts lol. Or "every person is unique..." in case you had the audacity to spread the word and help others (his potential patients!)
what stage of liver disease did you have? 🖤
Just for the record. Dr. Fung videos were the first I found when fighting diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol... Basically the modern epidemic assassin! I can say that the information he provided, literally, saved my life! Simple as that! Unfortunately my regular physician is a "pills" guy! The "best" he could offer me was the threat of insulin injections on top of more pills and that's it! Not a single word about high carbs, intermittent fasting, diet, etc. With this said. THANK YOU Dr. FUNG! ;-)
Very important note as Dr. Fung points out:. Slender people develop fatty liver too. From the intake of carbohydrates at high levels. You must be careful not to stuff children with candy / other carbohydrates or you'll burn out the B cells in the pancreas and then they can develop type 1 diabetes. As well many adults have been developing type 1 as well. Our Liver is a major hub of us being healthy. 16+ hours a day of fasting is a good start to reversing NAFLD. Also, I eat lots of chia seeds. It helps. Thanks for reading. Peace.
Im a example of that. Very skinny. People used to tell me im the one that can eat cookies because im skinny. Developed typ 2 before age of 30. Together with other autoimmun stuff.

Dr Fung: Your presentations on reversing fatty liver, diabetes and over coming obesity are an increasingly important community service. Appreciating the clarity with which you make these videos.
Can't be explained any simpler! Thank you Dr Fung!
I enjoyed it immensely. Moreover, Fung's advice has radically changed my life. Consistent intermitant fasting and one meal a day without bread, rice and wheat 🌾 products has ravaged my body fat, greatly reduced pain and artiritic inflammation, filled me to the brim with more balanced, positive energy, clearer thinking and made me feel young again. Thank you Jason for sharing your expertise and insight. I am indebted.

Jason Fung is my new Doctor now. I only listen to him!
Dr Berg is very good also.
Do NOT listen to Eric Berg. He'll clickbait you and have you eating 11 cups of veggies per day, which is much too much. Listen to Drs. Eric Westman, Ben Bikman, Paul Mason. My two favorites are Stephen Phinney and Jeff Volek, though they may be a little academic for many people. Same with Robert Lustig and Richard Johnson. I'm personally fascinated by the physiology and biochem.
This is so true Dr. Fung. I started drinking 60 ounces of smoothies (fruits & veggies) on a daily basis for a year and a half because I thought that was the healthy thing to do. At my annual I was told that i now had fatty liver. My doctor put me on a low carb diet, cut out sugars and high fat foods and I stopped drinking my smoothies. My liver numbers turned normal after about 8 months later. I also lost weight and my cholesterol went down as well. Great video and thank you!
Were you putting in a lot of high sugar fruits? Sugary milk? They have unsweetened milks such as almond and coconut milk use low sugar fruit if any wild unsweetened blueberries or blackberries good antioxidant
Dr. Jason, you a true healer! Thank you a million for being a real human body troubleshooter!

You’re a hero Dr Jason Fung . Thank you for educating the masses
Thanks Dr. Jason Fung! I agree. I was able to reverse my fatty liver by following a zero carb and IF. I bought and read also your books about cancer, diabetes and obesity. More power to you!
I always appreciate Dr. Fung’s information & material. One of my go-to sources for solid medical advice. May he always remain blessed 🙏🏼
I am 37, had NAFLD for a few years watching it get worse and worse. I ate 5-6 times a day thinking it was healthy. Never skipping breakfast I was soooo hungry by 11 if I had no snack, that I would get a headache. Skipping lunch was unthinkable and I felt sleepy after it. I never liked heat but I noticed I started to feel so bad in hot summers I was no use for my family.I gained more and more weight, thing not extreme, 105kg by 1.9m tall. I finally decided to change after my last doctor visit. I started with healthy Keto, then added IF skipping breakfast. First with coffee plus mct oil, then just water. Now after 2 months I can skip breakfast and by lunchtime I really don't want to eat. I lost 10 kg in 2 months with no real exercise but the best part - I completely fixed my liver. ultrasound and blood tests confirmed all in norm. I can not believe this success and I feel so much better. I plan to keep going and gradually increase my activity. Big thank you to you Dr. Fung for what you do.
Im 37 too....I feel weird, sour stomach after eating and weird head feelings plus side aches...Please share your more symptoms or if you felt mine listed here. 🖤🖤🖤
plus i feel not very hungry after 1-2 bites. 😞 I get light headed too and so tired.
What was your diet like? Did you eat animal protein like eggs, chicken, beef, salmon/fish ? Or did you stick with a plant based keto diet?
Wonderful news wish you happy and healthy 🙏❤️
I feel the same 😰😭 and I have fatty liver 😭
Thank you Dr. Fung for explaining this in a way anyone can understand.
Thank you Dr Fung - I am implementing your advice (48lbs lost since Jan 21) and passing it onto others too.
Short and right to the point. Dr. Fung, you are a lifesaver.
When I had a fatty leaver, I was diabetic and my poop used to smell horrible. I fell into a comma and found myself in hospital. I had to change my diet and intermittently fast. My health has improved considerably. Change to a healthy diet .
What your poop smell like now

Great video, Dr. Fung. Pre keto/IF, my triglycerides were over 400. Seven months after my lifestyle change, my triglycerides are 98 and falling.
Wow, truly incredible and inspiring! Thanks for sharing. Do you mind sharing which IF timetable you followed or recommend?
I fast minimum 16 to 18 hours each day at this time. In the beginning I primarily followed 20/4. Some days OMAD. I’ve lost 67 pounds, but the loss has slowed. I need to tighten my schedule again. @@cJroma316

Very good presentation, Jason ! Thank you ! Please, keep the materials short and concise like this one ( 6-10 minutes long is enough ).
You and Dr Serg saving everybody money and health problems! 🙏
This knowledge is due so much respect. I’m grateful to hear it. Thank you!
I once had fatty liver. My job was very stressful, i had a very long commute to and from work in heavy traffic, i wasn't sleeping much. And i was eating fast food to save time. No symptoms, so my annual physical results on the liver enzyme tests was a shock. I immediately switched to black coffee (instead of the 3-in-1 from my company vendo), avoided soft drinks and juices etc. I moved to a less stressful job that didn't have a long commute. Took turmeric, started walking regularly and took yoga classes (coz i had more time to take care of myself). Reversed it in about 3 yrs i think (perhaps coz we are rice eaters and i didn't know about IF/keto yet). My insurance agent couldn't believe it and kept asking how i did it coz she rarely sees reversals. The phlegm i always had in my throat also went away after that. I always wondered why i didn't have a cold but felt like i had a low-grade fever a lot of the time.
Pretty much everything I'm going through right now. I know it can change.
@L. A. - which form of turmeric (and how much/how often) did you take? I’m searching for a good/bio available source now...😊 Two in supplement form I’m looking at are from ProCaps Labs (Andrew Lessman - I LOVE ❤️ their Hair, skin & nails vitamins) and Biotrust (have had great results with their multi-collagen powder) - but can’t seem to make a decision just yet. Would love to hear your experience with your form of turmeric!🙏🏼😊😊💕
@@joeygirl314 i just take powder form, @1 tsp and a few shakes of black pepper into my coffee. Weird but i got used to it.
I have chronic phlegm. 🤔 hmmmmm
What about alcohol?
Thank God for your advice. Wish more people would pay attention to such knowledgeable physicians.
I really love all these doctors..educating people to live healthy free and easy...i just diagnosed with T2D and high fatty liver high cholesterol...and am working to reverse everything...doing 5 days 23/1 IF + Keto during weekdays.....and just KETO on weekends...my blood sugar improving now...still long way journey for me...
Simply thank you Dr. Fung, for giving all these for free. 💐💐💐
Thank you for all the educational videos! I look forward to these every Sunday 😁
Thank you for your knowledge and the kindness to share it!
Thank you so much for this video. My father died from Nash and my mom was just diagnosed last week.. this was bar far the most easy to understand video
Dr. Fung, you are doing God's work. Thank you for making this education accessible to us.
Too bad god doesn’t just do it for us, huh??
Dear Dr Fung, I love the new format of these videos. Very helpful and easy to absorb. Thank you from the UK
Dr. fung he is saving lives God Bless him
God bless you Dr. Fung been watching for a few years on the knowledge of how to take care of our bodies. Thank you so much
Thank you, Dr. Fung!! 👏👏👏 you are the best!!
Thanks Dr. Fung for this wonderful video and lecture. I just finished reading your Diabetes Code. It should be the text book for all medical school. It's crazy not to advocate your teaching. Thank you!
Thank you Dr Fung ! i just wish the nutritional guidelines catch up to evidence and they are not longer influence by pharmaceutical and agricultural companies i am so grateful
This is the best explanation of cause/effect/solution that I’ve come across, thank you so much for this work!
One of the best and easy to follow Docs out there! Thank you so so much again, Dr Fung!
👌🏼 Thank you Dr. Fung. God bless you and your family! 🙏🏼
Incredibly informative, concise yet enough statistics to explain properly..
Thank you Dr. Jason Fung, you have saved millions of lives, God bless you and your loved ones.
You Dr. Fung are a God Send. Thank you.
Just completed my 30 hour fasting.. I feel good eating once a day
Thank you Dr. Jason Fung ! It opens my mind and eyes.
Brilliant. Explained so simply and logically. Makes perfect sense.
Absolutely stunning analysis. Thank you, Sir.
It's so easy to solve. In 3 months I completely reversed my fatty liver by avoid carbs as much as possible and combining it with OMAD. The specialist was only talking about medicines and incurable diseases. Jason changed my life with his insights. Physically and mentally a multitude better. Thx Jason
@@SimonWoodburyForget I don’t agree, eating everything you want anytime you want just isn’t healthy. My body has normalized at this point, I know what it needs and can act if it goes sideways. Our believes on food are always ingrained with commercials interests or based on old believes and traditions. For instance, the patato was imported into Europe from America’s in the mid 1500’s because it’s unrivalled nutritional value and it’s relative easiness to cultivate. It saved people from famine and has taken a center place in nutrition. Today in our world of abundance and sedentary lifestyle it is still deemed absolutely important but isn’t really necessary anymore. So is understanding how your body works a cure or a treatement? At the minimum it’s knowledge, but I feel cured nonetheless.
@@SimonWoodburyForget You are just very lucky to be ''genetically balanced'' that allows you to eat all that and be sedentary too. I have a sister like you, she eats more than I do, never exercises, never gains weight. I was not so lucky. I was born with a belly, I do not remember a time I did not have a big round belly. Nothing, I did helped, to this day.
What is omad?
How do u know u reversed it
@ea thank you!
Real doctors doing real work.
Thanks for all your information on Fatty livers. I am 73 yo and now on a low Carb diet and my weight is going down. I was 206 pounds and now down to 196 pounds in 2 weeks time. First goal is to get below 190 pounds. I have cut out sugars-deserts and starches-bread and seems to work very well. But I also do just light to moderate exercising daily. So losing weight seems to work so far. take care.
This is the best explanation of fatty liver I’ve heard yet, and the most succinct. Thank you Dr. Fung.
Thank you, Doctor. The information I get from you has changed my health greatly. I am now feeling much better and my diabetes is now in reverse.
Thank you for spreading some light on the important facts people with this health issue desperately need to know. This information regarding fructose has almost been like a lightbulb going off for me. Now I understand more about my own body's response to certain foods.
