024 - Intermittent Fasting with Dr. Jason Fung, Part 1 - a podcast by Dan Perryman

Dr. Jason Fung is a nephrologist and worldwide expert in intermittent fasting. Based in Toronto, he graduated medical school in internal medicine at the University of Toronto prior to finishing his nephrology fellowship at the University of California – Los Angeles. Dr. Fung has published several books about weight-loss and intermittent fasting, including The Complete Guide to Fasting.

On today’s episode of The Low Carb Leader Podcast, Dan chats with Dr. Fung about what intermittent fasting is and why it’s better for your health than you may think. He explains how the body actually works – on a mental and biological level – during a fasting period, as well as how the benefits and risks compare to traditional calorie restricted diets.

“If you have a plate of brownies, or if you have a salad with salmon, they could be the same number of calories – but what they do to your body is completely different.” – Dr. Jason Fung
