Episode #199

In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan Ramos answers some of your fasting questions:

1. I’ve heard Dr Fung mention that he doesn’t recommend fasting for people with a BMI under 20. My BMI is under 20. I’ve recently lowered my A1C from 6.2 to 5.5 but would like to lower it further or at least maintain it. Would IF or OMAD be OK to do? (Beth from North Carolina) [01:40]
2. I have been doing some therapeutic fasting to address my PCOS and hopefully get my period back. Do you have any recommendations for a preconception plan for fasting and nutrition? Is there anything else I should be doing before TTC? How will I know when my body is healthy enough? [10:12]
3. Can you wreck your thyroid by fasting too much? Or is this not true and you can heal it with fasting? Mine was subclinical hypo but returned to normal when I stopped fasting, without meds. I am back to ADF now because I love fasting so much! (Miggy from The Netherlands) [20:46] 
4. I’ve been on a night shift schedule at the hospital for the last 30 years working 7pm to 7am. I’d love to know the ins and outs of how to stay as healthy as possible on nights and the best way to fast with that schedule. (Suzy from South Carolina) [26:37]

Episode #197

In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community:

1. Is the transition from peri-menopause to post-menopause without using HRT easier if you are eating holistically and lowering insulin? [01:52]
2. I’ve just joined the TFM Community and feel like my learning curve is vertical! Should I learn the science behind it all first and then start with TRE, moving onto some 24s before joining a coaching group, and then dive into therapeutic fasting, or would it be better to join a coaching group from the start? [04:47]
3. I read that it is difficult to avoid loose skin using autophagy when you have gained and lost weight repeatedly. Is this true? [08:18] 
4. Are there any special tricks or accommodations that I need to include in my fasting schedule when I have thyroid issues? [11:04] 
5. I've read your blog post about who should avoid fat bombs, but how does that apply to a fat fast? How many grams of fat should we be eating per meal, per day on a fat fast? [14:27]
6. Last summer, my DEXA scans went from osteopenia to osteoporosis. Since then, I’ve been weight training two to three times a week. What is the best way to fit my workouts in around my fasting schedules? [20:46]
7. Which fasting protocols would you recommend for the last 5% of a weight-loss goal? [25:21]

Episode #194

In this week's episode, Terri and Coach Heather talk about how so often people struggle to achieve their health and weight-loss goals because they maintain an underlying expectation of perfectionism. 

They share how perfectionism may present in the fasting and nutritional efforts you are engaging and encourage more realistic expectations. 

Summary Timestamps:

• Being a beginner means accepting that progress will be messy and imperfect, and that's okay. (02:53)
• Don’t rush through fasting and lifestyle changes, setting unrealistic expectations and timelines. (04:19)
• The challenge of not reaching goals is more a problem of not finishing than not starting. (08:21)
• The problem with streaks (13:32)
• Two strategies to combat perfectionism. (15:59) 
• Embracing the fact that change takes time and being willing to be ‘messy’ along the way is important for long-term success, and celebrating small wins and progress, rather than focusing on perfection, is key to building sustainable habits. (22:42)

Episode #193

In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community:

1. Are home-made smoothies and protein drinks helpful or detrimental as meal replacement when trying to lose weight or reverse type two diabetes? If so, what kind would you recommend? (05:14)
2. Is it acceptable for someone 4’10” to eat 0.6 grams of protein per kilogram instead of TFM’s recommended 0.8-1.2 gram, since they are so petite? (08:32)
3. How does iodine intake and storage work in the body from a scientific perspective? Since iodine is water soluble, what is known about how long the body can maintain adequate iodine levels between dietary intake? Are there any established research findings about the need for iodine during different eating patterns, such as an extended fast? (12:02) 
4. Will consistently high uric acid levels from fasting adversely affect my health even if I don't have symptoms of hyperuricemia? (14:08) 
5. I believe you addressed this at the time Dr. Peter Attia was a guest on Thomas DeLauer’s YouTube channel, but I can’t remember which one of our podcasts that was. Wasn’t he cautioning about extended fasts and muscle loss for people who were already in great shape - “shredded” if you will? Don’t you quickly regain any muscle lost once you start eating nutrient-dense food again? (15:21)
6. Is there more autophagy happening during exercise or fasting? (21:17)
7. What is the best fasting regime for someone with a low BMI but who has non-alcoholic fatty liver disease? How long should alternate-day fasting (just started two 42-48 hour fasts a week) combined with a whole-food, low-carb diet continue? (23:46)
8. What are your thoughts on fasting while taking ADHD medication? (25:04)
9. Do you have any recommendations for a diet that will starve or kill cancer? (26:23)
10. How long does it take to reverse insulin resistance while doing fasting and low-carb and how do you know when you have? (27:42)

Episode #191

In this episode of The Fasting Method podcast, Megan Ramos interviews Dr. Nadia Pateguana and her incredible daughter, Zinzi, about their new podcast - Forbidden.  Dr. Nadia previously shared she was stepping away from TFM to focus on her daughter's health, as well as a big move to Dubai.  Dr. Nadia and Zinzi share all of the incredible insights and work they've been doing to help Zinzi as she navigates disordered eating. 

Megan and Dr. Nadia discuss how so many women are often undiagnosed with conditions like ADHD in childhood and how that can go on to impact their eating habits later in life.

• The importance of understanding neurodivergence, as ADHD often presents differently in women and girls compared to boys. [08:01] [30:25]
• The role of a supportive community, especially the Fasting Method Community, in providing guidance and a safe space to share their story. [13:41]
• Encouraging others, especially women, to advocate for themselves and seek proper diagnosis and support for ADHD and eating disorders, as these conditions are often overlooked or misdiagnosed. [15:54] [20:23] [26:28]
• Strategies Nadia and Zinzi have implemented at home, such as using calendars and schedules to help Zinzi stay organized, as well as avoiding restrictive diets and instead focusing on building a healthy relationship with food. [19:02]

Episode #190

In this week's episode, Terri is joined by Coach Heather Shuker to discuss ways to get back into fasting for folks who may be struggling after not having fasted for a while. 

Terri and Heather discuss the video/board game analogies to illustrate how you may be out of practice, but that does not mean you are back at the beginning completely.

• Just like in video games, when you lose a life, you don't have to start over from the beginning. You can pick up where you left off and continue progressing. The same applies to habits and goals - you don't have to start from scratch if you've fallen off track. (01:31)
• It's common for people to return to healthy habits like fasting after a period of time away. It’s a bit like dusting off an old video game or board game - you may need to relearn some of the mechanics, but you don't have to start over completely. (06:53)
• If you want to stay proficient at something, you need to stay in the game. The key is to be patient with yourself and focus on consistency rather than perfection. Small, daily steps are more important than trying to achieve your goals quickly. Showing up and making the effort consistently is what leads to long-term success. (09:23)
• The importance of maintaining support systems and communities, even after reaching your goals. Just like in addiction recovery, continuing to participate in the Community can help you stay on track. (10:22)
• The danger of too much too soon. A great indicator of success is that you keep showing up. (18:23)
• Focus on the process rather than just the outcome, and remember that getting back on track is about dusting off old skills, not starting from scratch. (22:40)
