Which diet are you following? Are you doing the carnivore diet? Vegan? Keto? The choices and variations of every diet plan available is nearly endless. At the heart of the matter, diet consciousness is a question of overall health and better managing and preventing diseases and conditions that hinder your performance and destroy your ability to live a happy and healthy life. In this episode, nephrologist and intermittent fasting expert, Dr. Jason Fung, exposes the overarching importance of understanding your body’s hormonal response to insulin activated by what you eat and the frequency with which you eat. He also breaks down the three major paradigms for cancer, and ranks the danger of a poor diet as high as cigarette smoke in terms of high risk contributors of cancer. Dr. Fung is also the author of the #1 best seller, The Obesity Code. Order Dr. Jason Fung’s Book, “The Cancer Code”: https://www.amazon.com/Cancer-Code-Revolutionary-Understanding-Wellness/dp/0062894005 SHOW NOTES: Weight Loss | Dr. Fung on why weight loss is critical and counting calories doesn’t work [1:23] Calories | Dr. Fung reveals how hormones impact your body’s response to less calories [3:31] Carbohydrates | Dr. Fung on how carbs stimulate insulin and signal the body to store fat [6:59] Protein vs. Carbs | The hormonal response of these nutrients on satiety & effect on insulin [9:50] Processed Carbs | Dr. Fung explains the danger behind processed carbs & hormones [13:03] Insulin | Dr. Fung explains getting fat on calorie restriction when insulin is high [15:49] Low Insulin Diet | Dr Fung on losing weight by lower insulin and cycle feeding & fasting [23:32] Fasting | Dr. Fung introduces options to get through fast with salt, magnesium or broths [26:32] Cancer | Dr. Fung breaks down 3 paradigm shifts in cancer research & treatments [28:50] Growth Paradigm | How the overgrowth of cells have been treated by cut, burn or poison [29:41] Genetic Paradigm | Understanding genetic mutations and the complication curing cancer [30:36] Evolutionary Paradigm | The primitive mutation of cancer treated with immunotherapy [34:00] Seed in Soil | Preventing cancer “seeds” to grow, understanding chronic stressors [42:30] Follow Dr. Jason Fung: Website: https://thefastingmethod.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jason.fung.313Are You Ready for EXTRA Impact?If you’re ready to find true fulfillment, strengthen your focus, and ignite your true potential, the Impact Theory subscription was created just for you.Want to transform your health, sharpen your mindset, improve your relationship, or conquer the business world?
