Episode #197
In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community:
- Is the transition from peri-menopause to post-menopause without using HRT easier if you are eating holistically and lowering insulin? [01:52]
- 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]
- 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]
- Are there any special tricks or accommodations that I need to include in my fasting schedule when I have thyroid issues? [11:04]
- 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]
- 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]
- Which fasting protocols would you recommend for the last 5% of a weight-loss goal? [25:21]
