The Cancer Code with Dr. Jason Fung – Diet Doctor Podcast

Dr Fung literally saved my life. I was on insulin and metformin for 4 years. Following Dr Fungs advice in his books, I got off both meds. My insulin resistance has returned to that of a non-diabetic person. I lost 60 pounds in 10 weeks (great side effect).

I love Dr Fung's medical common sense. As a physician, it is always a pleasure learning from him. Thanks a lot!

Dr. Fung's YouTube videos saved my life. Last March I was diabetic. 10 months later my blood glucose before my breakfast is 80. I am also 40 pounds lighter. My quest for health continues, I am hoping to get my blood glucose in the low 70s before March this year.

As always up to date doctors are fascinating teachers! Wish my PCP and interventional cardio doc would even just catch up with keto and intermittent fasting AND insulin resistance. They’re younger than me and consider me non- compliant because 2 1/2 years on keto/IF I got off all 17 meds. I’m nearly 66 years old. Think I’m outgrowing my doctors. Sad.

Thank you!! Dr. Fung. Do you ever go to sleep? I am simply fascinated with your wide ranging professional knowledge and interests. Your work helps me in my everyday life: using intermittent fasting to reduce insulin, manage weight to lower cancer risks, etc. May God continue to bless you as you share your work with us/the world.

Definitely a revolutionary hero. Thank you Dr. Fung, for your courage and caring! Love Dr Scher! Such a great interviewer, objective and well studied.

Valter Longo, an Italian biologists did research experiments and proved that fasting fights cancer. However he couldn't get patients and doctors to adopt the intervention in actual practice. So he came up with the "Fasting Mimicking Diet". A person can eat some foods but still get the benefits of fasting. It is currently being used successfully to fight cancer. However our legal system prevents this from being promoted or any claims made.

He is the best in explaining about various cronic illneses as he simplify it for the understanding of everyone who is lesteni ng

I guess I live in a different world... I have been eating twice a day ( morning and mid-afternoon) for decades ( low carb, lots of vegetables, eggs, cheese, less than 2#s of meat/yr. —- never ever been overweight, always naturally very thin, get regular vigorous exercise). People really eat 6+ times a day?.. what kind of food bills do they have?... I couldn’t afford to eat that way. At 64+ I have no medical issues, never get sick, have plenty of energy, grow my own food, run my own home based businesses... and live simply ( nearly off the grid, cook and heat with wood in winter ), dig my gardens by hand.... I hope I can get Dr. Fung’s books through the library.... What about waist circumference in someone with a significant scoliosis? That circumference includes going around ribs etc., therefore for that population it wouldn’t be a very accurate measurement.

I am a desciple of Dr. Jason Fung. To be able to put across the research hypothesis and methodology that anyone can understand is not a given. Love the seed and soil analogy. Modern day Confucius! Stay blessed.

I teach research methods and love this discussion. Science should be eager to disprove our hypotheses. However, now, orthodoxy sets in quickly, gets all kind of money for research and never stops to check the primary hypothesis if data contradicts it.

DR. FUNG my favorite Doctor! Just finished reading his fasting book....I will follow his 42 hour fast protocol starting tomorrow!!!

33:04, All cancers share one thing. Damaged mitochondria. The mitochondria are known to be dysfunctional in at least two ways. 1. The mitochondria in cancer cells cannot switch over to burning ketone bodies for energy as normal mitochondria can, (Warburg Effect). 2. In normal cells the mitochondria are in charge of signaling apoptosis, programmed cell death. In cancer cells the mitochondria have lost this ability hence unregulated cell growth. Many things can damage mitochondria including a virus. The immune systems kills most cancer cells before they become tumors. Crank up your immune system with vitamin D3. As Mulder said to Scully; The truth is out there.

Thanks for this incredibly useful information. I'm terminally ill from a rare form of cancer, peritoneal carcinomatosis. Recently I switched to a ketogenic diet and go at least 12 hours in between eating, hoping to at least extend remission. It will be interesting to see if there's any impact on the growth and spread of the cancer. Certainly I have little to lose in the attempt.

Thank you for another very valuable opportunity to learn from Dr Fung. I consider myself very lucky to be able to access these talks, free for everyone, but I subscribe to dietdoctor to enable more people to have the opportunity to learn a wonderful way of eating and living.

Another fabulous vid by 2 fabulous drs that TRULY care about people’s health. Thank you both for valuable info.

Dr. Scher did an EXCEPTIONAL job at asking the precise questions that helped elucidate all the concepts Dr. Fung needed to bring forward. Incredibly informative video…THANK YOU!
