The Fasting Method Podcast

Episode #217 In this episode, Terri and Heather dive into the foundational framework behind lasting fasting success—what they call “The Three-Legged Stool.” They unpack the three essential components: 1️⃣ The Fasting Dial – finding the right rhythm for your body 2️⃣ The Nutrition Dial – nourishing in a way that supports your goals 3️⃣ The Support Dial – staying consistent through accountability and connection Terri and Heather explain why all three dials must be in balance—because when one leg is missing, the whole stool wobbles. If you’re struggling to stick with fasting, lose weight, or feel your best, this conversation will help you reconnect with the core principles that create sustainable, long-term success. ✨ Think of this as your reset to realign and thrive—no extremes, just solid strategy.   👉 Take the first step!

Episode #208 In this Fasting Q&A episode, hosted by Coach Lisa Chance, Dr. Jason Fung answers questions from the TFM Community: Do you think healthy individuals should take a daily multivitamin? [04:40] I am a 300-pound male and usually have about 20g of protein a day when I fat fast. If I have more, I can’t stick with it. I’ve found that before I do a 66 (two per week), I need about 140-200g of protein the day before in order to complete the fast. In other words, doing a fat fast right before my fast doesn’t hold me and I binge. Is there anything wrong with doing this? [05:50] What is the best way to extend a fast when someone has a history of gout? [11:40] What is your opinion on Dr. Roy Taylor's work about the pancreas not really being burned out but clogged with fat so the beta cells cannot function properly? [12:51] If someone has a high LP(a) of over 200, but their Trigs:HDL ratio is 1:1, then don’t worry, but what about plasmapheresis for Lp(a)? [14:19]  Will younger people respond quicker to IF than older people? [15:45] I’ve read the science behind creatine and the many benefits to your muscles (I weight train) and your brain, and recently purchased a high quality brand. Creatine doesn’t contain protein, it’s a naturally occurring compound made from amino acids arginine, glycine, and methionine, so will it prevent autophagy? [17:15] If instead of adding MCT oil to the morning coffee we would take an omega pill instead, which of these might have less of an insulin release? [19:49] TFM’s Book Club is reading Dr. Christopher Palmer's “Brain Energy” this month. He covers the metabolic theory of mental health, specifically with regards to mitochondrial health and optimal brain-energy metabolism impacting our prefrontal cortex function. Can you talk about this ‘hidden in plain sight’ mental metabolic disorder of the brain, showing the progressive degeneration of the prefrontal cortex seen so rampant in our culture today? [21:21] What kind of fasting protocol can be done for someone considered to be a TOFI and doesn’t want to lose too much weight? [25:34] There’s some conflicting research on how keto and fasting affects T3 levels. For individuals with low T3 production, do you recommend a specific keto or fasting approach and are there any important considerations?
