Episode #213
In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community:
1. Can you compare T1D, T2D, LADA, and MODY? [01:52]
2. What are the best fasting protocols and diet for autoimmune conditions? [11:40]
3. Is it possible to be successful if you eat mostly vegan/vegetarian, as I worry about the higher carbs with this type of eating? [13:44]
4. Does each hour you fast have added benefits? [20:44]
5. A recent study done by University of Colorado Boulder confirms that metabolically healthy women tend to experience menopause later, with the study linking later menopause (age 55+) to better vascular health and reduced heart disease risk. Could you discuss how this research connects metabolic health factors like mitochondrial function and insulin sensitivity to delayed menopause onset and improved cardiovascular outcomes? [25:44]
