  • Do better

    Good info but Megan’s speaking is so distracting by her constant sucking in of air and clearing her throat. You’d think a podcaster would listen to herself speak and realize how irritating it is.

  • Shills selling stuff

    I get that one needs to monetize, but after enduring a seemingly endless commercial for their tea and bone broth, I see the cynical sales pitch behind these guys. Hard unfollow.

  • Great Info, Bad audio

    Overall, this is a great podcast when it comes to fasting. I do find the topics and information to be valuable. However, with so many episodes in, I am shocked that the host have not invested in better podcast microphones.

    Something like the Shure MV7 or Podmic would do wonders for the show.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How Do You Know What Health Advice to Trust?
Q: Do you think this will affect the sourcing and getting them to be safer?
Fung says legalizing peptides would not ensure safety when their risks and benefits have not been established and their manufacturing may not be reliable.
How Do You Know What Health Advice to Trust?
Q: As a practitioner, what's that like for you when people come in informed but maybe informed through AI and Dr. Google and such, does that help you as a clinician?
Fung says patient research can be useful because doctors cannot know everything, but the volume of conflicting claims makes it difficult to tell which sources are reliable.
Fasting But Not Losing Weight? Here's Why
Q: The first question is, I'm in fasting trying to stay consistent, but I'm not seeing the weight loss yet. Is that normal?
Yes, it's normal to be on a spectrum where the optimal fasting duration and dietary strictness vary by individual; starting with a manageable 16-hour fast and adjusting per results is common, with emphasis on consistency over chasing longer fasts.
Understanding Hunger: What to Do When You Feel Hungry
Q: Could you get down to a few more nuts and bolts about what to do with those various types of hunger in the real world?
Dr. Fung outlines practical distinctions between hunger types and emphasizes tailoring strategies to each type, such as using satiating protein and fiber to manage homeostatic hunger, slowing down eating to counter hedonic hunger, and leveraging social support or talk therapy to address conditioned hunger. He also highlights that recognizing hormonal signals and the processing of food are central to choosing effective interventions.
Mindset Mastery: The Missing Piece in Long-Term Weight Loss
Q: Penny asks why old patterns of self-sabotage recur and how to address them.
The speakers explain it's about identifying underlying emotional needs (loneliness, fatigue, stress) and reframing the inner dialogue, rather than fighting the urge directly; viewing the inner child as needing safety and comfort can help break the cycle.
