Intermittent Fasting Guide for 2022 | Doctor Mike Hansen

Doctor Mike, this video has been so informative and eye opening. Thank you so much!!

Four years away from 70yo, you saying don't fast? I was definitely overweight (not obese) and have lost seven pounds in four weeks, now in normal range. Also walk 3kms a day, planning to increase that to 5kms a day. Seeing too many benefits so far to quit.

Does this work in 2024

Thank you Mike

when you referred leptin as the hunger hormone, i think you meant to say ghrelin. leptin is a satiety signal.

Hang on, you talk about a study done on pre diabetic men fasting from 8 to 3, whose metabolic health improved but experienced no weightloss, and then you carry on talking as if that didn't just happen... WHAT!?!?!? A STUDY SHOWS AN 18/6 INTERMITTENT FASTING SHOWS ZERO WEIGHTLOSS?? Shouldn't we talk about this? Okay this is huge, for me anyway, don't know about you all.

If you are 69 years of age and obese can you combine a 12 hour eating window with a healthy diet with minimum added sugar and lots of protein to lose fat?

I eat food between 9 -10 Am in the morning. At evening i eat at 5-6PM which means from 7PM night to till morning 9-10 AM i don't eat. This is my routine for eating. And i don't eat during day after 9-10AM food till 5-6PM evening food. Os this diet routine good???

Can I drink water , instant coffee and green tea during FASTING?

So many people eating food in front of me in a video about fasting 😅

Excellent video Mike...Just a confirmation requested; by hunger hormone you mean Leptins or Ghrelins?

Very educational, thank you!!!🎉

Thanks, Doc for sharing this knowledge

Amazing explanations.

YOU CANNOT EAT AS MUCH AS YOU WANT! You will never loose weight or be healthy if you are consuming more calories than you burn.

Eating within 2 hours of wakeing is not recommended. Melatonin levels are still high, this hormone prevents the pancreas working normally

I was 200 lbs at 5'2. I started Aug 2023 not eating dinner after 7pm and not eat after 9pm. Which I would eat healthy snacks until. So from 9pm cut of time to 12 or 1pm I don't eat but drink water or drink green tea that I do in a pitcher. I don't drink sweet drinks like orange juice etc.

It was 10 hrs at first but increased it and it worked for me until I got used to it. I fast 16 hrs a day with monjouro.

The reason, I had cancer, it gave me lymphedema on my left arm while doing chemo, it swells up. I had high AC1 7.6, high blood pressure and fatty liver which scared me.

I now am 167 lbs and did it without working out, but I started to tone. My AC1 was 7.6 when I started, now 5 5, no high blood pressure, my arm is so much better from the swelling even though it's a lifetime disability because chemo did so much damage to the arm with the arteries. I'm going to check my liver this month. I can breath better while walking up the stairs and can walk more blocks now.

The most exciting part, are my clothes. I was an XL shirt size and was almost going to fit in a XXL size, now I'm fitting into a Medium and I had to buy pants from 14 to a 10. It's not only the monjouro, it was the intermittent fasting because I was using the Ozempic for 3 months and didn't see any results and no fasting. Then I switched to Monjouro and the first 2 months I tested and lost but didn't see the results as much and my numbers from AC1 was a tad down. After I started to fast and it all changed everything. My health improved and I lost weight 33 so far. I have 40 more to go until I reach 125 and then. workout my muscles. I can't do too much weight because I built muscles fast on my legs especially. I'm happy now and feel so much better. 😊🎉🙏🏼 It's a game change for life. So worth it you won't regret it and you'll learn to eat less and more healthy, your stomach feels full when you eat less, as it gets smaller.

studies have shown that significantly reducing caloric intake does produce measurable reductions in a person's stomach capacity.

I loved your explanation! I’m a doctor here in Monterrey, México and me & my father treat obesity and diabetes, & I even took notes about your explanations so as to use them!😂 thanks!

I always consider "how did we evolve?" - 300,000 years of homo sapiens eating real organic foods of the land. A hunter gatherer diet, unintentional intermittent fasting during the hunting and gathering, lots of walking and moving to conduct these processes. 300,000 years of biological programming that maintains a fit body for these processes.

Insulin sensitivity is likely at epidemic proportions today and this is the modern snacking on processed sugar and carbs and simply when in doubt... focus on the least processed protein along with veggies. Limit the fruit and preferably to desert before bed time to align with the circadian rhythm. Morning fruit is ideal when you're in great shape without excess insulin sensitivity (body can handle it more reasonably).

If you have intense hunter cravings through the day, seriously consider the "bullet-proof" cocktail of grass-fed butter and MCT oil blended in a morning beverage such as coffee, tea, or bone broth. A game changer for curving hunger and feeling more energized with intermittent fasting throughout the day. Bullet-proof coffee is typically the popular choice but if you respectably want to avoid caffiene as well for an even greater gut health benefit, tea or bone broth (especially for intense weight lifters) are alternative choices.

67 yr, male, smoker. I used intermittent fasting for over 6 months. I went from over 100 kg to 70 kg, waist 100 cm to 90cm and my blood pressure came down. First cycle was 3 days, eat as usual, 4th day fast. First weeks were hard but then much easier. But what I found significant was during my normal days I was "full" with less and less. Maybe the behavior modification was more effective than the caloric restriction. I may not be as strict about it, but is now my new "normal".

Fast result 2023 check my video ,

Where ru located

For those of us that are fasting and this video is full of people eating. This is torture!!

Fasting means not consuming calories. Everyone does fasting unless you are intravenously consuming calories 24/7.

Please can someone help and advise? My mum is 60 years old, fit but needs to lose 10 kilos at least. She has her dinner at 5 pm and finishes eating by 5.30 pm. Her next meal is eaten the next day at 2.30 pm. She has been doing this since a month but has not lost anything so far. Where is she going wrong??

My son in law lost over 50 pounds. The weight continues to fall off. He eats two meals a day. He is FDNY and needs to stay lean. This works

For about a month ive been not eating until 5 oclock. Then i eat until im almost full .i do have some cheat days. But ive lost a good amount of weight and feel a lot better. I'm also a heavy smoker and I drink alcohol too but I run and lift weights too

You're the next best thing along side Dr. Pradip Jamnadas. Thank you for this episode.

steps i did.
1. only eat from 8AM-8PM. unlimited. any thing any amount.
2. then if i get hungry after 8PM then tough luck. only water.
3. then soon enough i learn that eating lots of sweets and refined carbs will make me hungry soon.
4. so i switch to eating more natural fats and vegetables and meats.
5. so now i don't get hungry after 8PM. and if i do, then tough luck. here's some water lol.

The most clear explanation!👍

So, what should a woman age 73 do to lose weight?

Help me out here. He refers to eating “ normally”. A cheeseburger, 2 twinkies, and a can of coke is “normal” for the uneducated. It’s “ normal” for them. “Normal” for fat people.

Easy to understand. Lot of useful information.

Careful folks. I became skeletal over a year. Once you’re lean remember to swing it back to a wider eating window, can be a blind spot because it happens (relatively) gradually…. body dysmorphia is a thing.

Hi thanks for sharing this video. I have been doing intermitent fasting 1x or 2x a week; usually Mondays and Thursdays. I fast from 3pm to 8am. Question is it safe to do physical exercise before 8am on the day when I stop the fast? Usually I go for 1 hr or 2hr cycling or sometimes walking; and on the mornings where I have been fasting for about 16hrs, I feel quite weak; like slower on the bike; kind of less strong than usual if I am lifting; or less focused; even concentration seems less. So, noticing that my performace is lower at the end of the fast brought me to ask the questions; is it normal to feel less strong?
Is it safe to do physical workouts at the end of a fast?
Should I fast on slow days or days off only i.e days where I do not do physical work or work that require concentration i.e business meetings ?
I am 43 yo and I do not have any medical conditions. Thanks

How does this all work for a nightshifter?

This doctor is so incredibly handsome makes watching a delight !!

Intermittend fasting = Ramazan

I have been on my new food lifestyle for 90 days. I am greedy for even more success. I sleep all through the night. No more peeing in the middle of the night. My joints don't hurt. My sinuses are 98%better. I eat 1 to 2 times a day in a 5 to 6 hour window. I eat macros of 90%+ meat. Small amount of fresh fruit as desert. Lost 35 lbs in 90 days. 215 to 180. My one complaint is I now am too small for my pants. I also walk almost every day and do some isometrics.

i love u doc, you're so handsome

Is making your own bread okay because it’s minimally processed?

I find that eating fresh vulva every day coupled with fasting works really well.

In my case, over age 70, intermittant fasting with a healthy diet over a six month period led to weight loss of 20%, increase muscle mass, better sleep, more energy, and overall health improvement. Wonderful video covering every detail to better health.
I would add that homoginized milk can be a problem. I've proven this by the process of elimination and re-introduction. Sadly recent research has overlooked, denied or ignored the xanthine oxidase enzyme research of the 70's and 80's. I can drink raw or pasturized milk without health issues, but not homogenized. My choice now is raw or none.

133 pounds😢

We're headed to Soylent Green! Starring Chuck Heston.

I've been doing intermittent farting for most of my life with no effect whatsoever regarding my weight.



Also I now have no friends ....
