That's fantastic explanation, sir. Can u plz put forth about insulin resistance too , which is the main cause for PCOS and gallbladder issues. Thanks in advance.
I was told more than 10 years back that I was knocking on the doors of diabetes. Immediately I adopted a diabetic diet and started daily regular exercises. To this day my periodical Hb A1C test results have never crossed 5.7%. I am 72 years old and continue to jog for 40 minutes a day six days a week apart from doing stretching for 10 minutes before jogging. I hope to continue with this routine as long as possible.
Super efforts from your end. Remarkable at this age. If you elaborate more what was your weight 10 years back and now? To achieve the same what diabetic diet you are eating regularly slightly more, how are you managing all 7 days? What is your time of food intake it will be an eye opener? . Advance Thanks.
@@ravichandransubramaniam6169 I am a vegetarian but take two boiled eggs along with a couple of dosai or chapathi or 3 pooris/idlis. Twice a week or so I take a cup of Bengal gram or greengram sundal for breakfast. When I take sundal I take only one boiled egg. I take only a small bowl of rice (a little less than what is given as limited meals in a hotel along with a lot of green vegetables. I take a small cup of coffee or tea without sugar once or twice a day In the evening I take about 75 gms of roasted ground nuts. For supper I take only a couple of dosai/chapathi or 3 idlis. I am 73 cms tall weigh about 69-70. My waist is about 87cms or so. I still wear very comfortably pants stitched 16 years ago. The simple idea is to eat no more than what you require or spend every day all the calories you eat. All unspent calories slowly get deposited as fat!
I was detected as diabetic during covid. I changed my diet and started intermittent fasting. Without medicines, I have brought my sugar level from 11.2 to 6.2 now. Also did exercise twice a day. Now since work from home has stopped, it has become difficult to exercise daily but I am continuing with my 16 hours fasting and exercise whenever I get time. In this process, I lost about 15kgs.
Dr.Pal, you are amazing. I love the way you mix humour with facts so well. For your information, I have been treated for Type 2 Diabetes for 20 years and matters only got worst. When Covid started I stopped travelling for work and commenced Intermittent fasting and now OMAD. My H1Bc has come down from 12 to 6.5. I sleep very well and have no more liver problems. I am 65. I wish I knew about OMAD and Intermittent fasting before. Anyway it is never late. Please carry on your work. You are marvelous, funny d right to the point. Well done Dr. Pal
WISH WE HAD DOCTORS LIKE U & RU-vid 30 YRS BACK AVAILABLE TO ALL WHO WANT TO LEARN GENUINELY!!! I wouldn't hv lost a beloved one to diabetes.. but that pushed me to learn more of my health choices..testing .. circadian rhythm.. lifestyle.. & most importantly..my happiness .. as stress kills us faster !! THANK U 🙏🥰
Dear Doc iam not a diabetic.. But was prediabetic few months ago... But now with proper diet I am maintaining it normal without any medication... Your message is terrific! 👍
Thanks Doctor - I follow your principles religiously and have reversed my A1c from 5.8 to 5.2 - you are the best - the new lifestyle change is very inspiring and I am Enjoying my new journey of restricted eating with clean eating habits @Dr Pal
Hi Dr Pal, myself motivationally down after diagnosed with Diabetes and high cholesterol when admitted for Gastric problems … my HBA1C shows 9.8 which makes me worried 😟 when dr prescribed with insulin intake. I really worried so much since I have 4 kids to support.. but your video build confidence and motivated me to fight this.. Already started with intermittent fasting and walking minimum 7-8km daily… all Fast or junk foods are completely stopped.. hope I will see great results. Thanks 🙏 Dr..
Doctor Sir, You are a HERO for me. Health is one subject a common man cannot understand to what literate people say... you are so Kind to give us the GOLDEN information in a suitable way LONG LIVE Doctor Sir.
Thank you Doctor for posting this video. I have tried fasting of all sorts and failed in all of them. I will try this again, and I hope I can achieve a reduction and possibly even reverse my diabetes, and lose my belly fat in the process as well.
Thank you for your guidance, sir. I entered d diabatic club last year with HbA1C 7.8, coupled with peripheral neuropathy, which made it very difficult to walk. I was prescribed Tab Glycomet 500 (1-0-1) .. with the help of customized footwear n medication ftom vascular surgeon, I started to walk better within 3 months.. increased regular physical activity to atleast one hour per day, all with strict NO to sugary/hi-carb items.. included more salads n sprouts in my meal.. it took a whole year to bring down my hba1c from 7.8 to 5.5 .. added bonus : I weigh 11 kg less than last year 😊 I used to get more determined from your videos, to become non-diabetic again .. or keep it under control.. Thanks a lot 🙏
Though I,m not diabetic, but it was near the boarder line. I adopted intermittent fasting some four moths back and successfully loose about 8-9 kilo weight. Yes , intermittent fasting is absolutely possible and it works. Now my blood sugar is just normal, BMI is normal.
I reversed my diabetes in just 9 days. Restricted eating wi Dow to 10 am to 5 pm. Had 80 per ent uncooked food green juices, veg juices and fruit juices. Eating 20 percent cooked food at 5 pm. In 9 days my fasting sugar came down to 110 from 160, night sugar 120 to 130, HBA1C came down from 8 to 6.5 in one month
I am going to continue in this life style till I want to be healthy. It is easy, fun and enjoyable. I eat in a window of 12 pm to 5 pm. Mostly green, veg and fruit juices (90 percent ) and rest millets. Once a week feast day. Enema twice a day. That is it
HbA1c is a 3 month value... it does not change in a month. If whatever u r trying is working for you..tht is well and good but pls keep your facts valid. And i am skeptical of how using enema, in a healthy individual without any bowel disorders, is useful in this case.
Doctor, I follow all your videos. But a clarification: Insulin doesn’t give energy, it allows glucose to go through cells by opening channels so that glucose can go into the cells and transformed to energy. When the channels (insulin receptors) get affected it leads to type two diabetes. Exercise helps to burn more sugar and possibly improve the transfer of sugar into the cells by making the channel to open.
Hi Doctor, I follow 16-8 intermittent fasting nearly for an year. I’m more healthy and energetic these days. I did my 10k run recently under 50 mins. You are my inspiration not just for fasting and diet. You inspire me the way you live and present yourself. I really know the stress and pain the doctors go through due to tight schedules and shifts but you never show your stress and always positive and motivates everyone.. Two questions doctor. 1. My eating window is 12-7PM. Is this wrong and not following the circadian rhythm. Does this mean I’m skipping breakfast? 2. I’m 39 years old. I’m experiencing tremendous hair fall now. No one in my family is bald. I do not have any grey hair even now. But hair fall is significant. Is there any connection to IF or it is just a hormonal changes that happen in this age?
Since your meals get over at 7 pm and do not start before sunrise, you ARE eating in line with circadian rhythm. 12:12 is minimum fasting. 16:8 which you practice is better
Doctor, I enjoy watching n listening to u providing us with the basic knowledge which everyone requires. Ur method of mixing knowledge n humour is exactly what we all need, without fear. Thankyou n please continue to educate us . God bless you.
My husband started the 12 hour window, guess what his A1C never goes above 6.5. He had mild attack before starting the 12 hour window and had CABG 4 years back. For the past two years his A1C is in good control by following the circadian rhythm. Thanks doctor you are saving lot of people’s life.
Hello Dr. Pal Super!! Me and my 10 year old son are very much fond of listening to your videos. The 8 hour eating window is really helping me. My son has stopped having the oreo and likes to follow most of your advices. Also, whats the normal sugar leval for a non diabetic person?
@DrPal, I am 39 years I have type 2 diabetes, and it is 6.5 ( when fasting ). I understand from your session that weight loss is the only option to reverse my diabetes level. I am trying to follow a food plan of 1.) One small bowl of black rice porridge or one small bowl of boiled green moong dhal with brown rice with 2 egg omelettes. - usually around 9 AM 2.) Around 11 AM, I feel very tired, and my energy level is shallow. I take one whole apple. This energizes me. Without this, i am not able to concentrate on work. 3.) I start feeling hungry around 2 PM and have 1 small bowl of chicken curry/1 bowl of vegetables, and 1 small bowl of brown rice 4.) I again started feeling hungry & craving to eat and had to take some snacks like 1 small bowl of boiled peanuts around 5 PM 5.) I finish my dinner by 9 PM with 5 chappatis. Usually, I used to take more, but when i started to follow the above diet, I manage the chappati count between 4 and 5. My major problem is that I am not feeling energetic, and my headache starts because of hunger. What changes i need to change my diet to feel energetic all day and reduce my belly fat. I want to stay away from heart disease. Let me know if i can connect with you for consultation.
Doctor, Thank you for the video, From your video, I am interpreting that Intermittent fasting of 12 hrs( 8pm to 8am) - Following Circadian Rhythm Eating between 8am to 8pm- With Low carbohydrate diet -Regular Walking - With taking medicine Reduction in Sugar level will happen over a period saying around 6 months -12 months - I need one information how much of carbohydrate requirement per day - as per Present sugar level can be decided - For instance my HBAIC is 6.7 with above practice in place what is the ideal Carbohydrate per day to be taken.
Try having just one jowar bhakri with 1 big bowl of vegetable, 1 big bowl of thick daal , 1 big bowl of buttermilk, 1 fruit, 4 nuts. This is more nutritious and very filling
Fasting and diet with low carb intake is the best method for diabetes. The method of shifting from medicine intake to the diet method should be done carefully with advice from an experienced doctor. Iam following low carb diet with fasting for 3 years and I am good without any medicine. Previously I was diabetic for 4 years. I slowly shifted from medicine to diet cum fasting method in about 3 months. Some fear about kidney and heart failure in low carb diet. But I take lemon and garlic regularly and til now I am fine and also has reduced 50 kg of my weight.
My American dr @ 2018 told me I was gaining 3 lbs every year and have to take metformin to reduce weight if not threatened me to put me on insulin. Luckily my dietitian went thru my reports and strictly told me not to take metformin and clarified me that my weight was just post delivery weight. She also told me to follow a strict diet with no carb , moderate protein, high fiber and calcium diet . I did as she said and also changed my dr as per her advice and today from 75 kgs to 67 kgs just in a couple of months of following omad. Iam still following omad . By god’s grace all good!
Iam 45 years having diabetes from my first pregnancy starting. I got two children with insulin medication. Now i have HbA1C 10 and sugars anove 200 to below 300. Doctor given me tablets, insulin dosage of 15 points. I really inspired by your video. Thanking you sir.
Hi doctor, please talk about gestational diabetes and ways to control it and is there a chance to not have it in future pregnancies . It will be helpful as more number of pregnant women is facing this issue . It’s my sincere request . Thanks in advance for considering
Hey doc I'm so glad i came across ur video it's very informative,ur Absolutely mind blowing. No doc can brief so clearly I'm sure many will adapt to it including me.... Hats off indeed ur a good Samaritan
I'm getting good result aftet taking keto diet and doing intermittent fasting. I'm following this mathod for 84 days. Already i give up taking insulin and all drugs (Alhamdulillah).
I had followed so many doctors Dietitians their explanations don't make any sense. But your explanation Dr.Pal makes it so simple & easy to understand.
Thank you for your lovely videos. Very interesting to listen to your videos very knowledgeable and very helpful. Thank you so much God bless us all 🙏🙏🙏
We visited a famous diabetologist in our locality. We were strictly informed not to do any kind of fasting. I asked can a fasting schedule from 6.30 AM to 7pm be adopted but was strictly asked not to do fasting at all. Infact the dietician asked my parent to have milk at 9pm and go to sleep by 10pm. Dinner to be closed between 8pm to 8.30 pm
Even a renowned physician I met said fasting is only recommended by nutrition dept. Dinner should be half an apple before 7pm to overcome/ prevent peptic ulcer. Dr. Pal, any thoughts please?
Dr ji, for the first time i hear you have touched the Good and Bad bacteria in the gut. I felt this when I was treated for bacterial / stomach infection with antibiotic followed by probiotic. You are touching the core. Thats my gut feeling... 😄😀 thanks for the 🎥

Dr Pal, One day you will be receiving the highest honorary award for your genuine attempt to prevent sickness from the country you are born and the country you have adapted to call home. *This is a physician who has kept the Hippocratic oath*
Thank you Dr. Pal. I absolutely love watching/listening your videos. I love your good sense of humor, always at some point you make me laugh. I will recommend your videos to my sister who is "borderline diabetic" too much sugar in her blood. God bless you and your family. ✌❤👍(USA)
Dear doctor, your videos have broken multiple myths on our eating habits and in managing our health including diabetes. I started following intermittent fasting, reduced carb intake since Apr 2023 and i was just diagnosed diabetic with Pp 250 and hba1c 9.7. Fast forward to Sep 2023 (4 mths), i have reduced my weight by 8 kgs, and hba1c reduced to 6.5. More importantly i never had any general ailment such as fever, cold, cough. I used to get sick every 3 months before. Now i have started on strength training too along with proper food habits. I really got on to your "keep it simple" mantra of "intermittent fasting" and gove time to the body to heal itself. Definitely want to thank you for sharing thru these videos.
I started 16 hour fasting for last 15 days... I was feeling palpitations and weak and a he'll... today I reduced fasting to 12 hours... let me see if this works and my body can adapt this easily or not... my preferred fasting in 8 pm to 8 am. I had a cup of milk at 8 am and then had breakfast at 10 am. I am okay with this today.
Dr Pal, please tell about diabetes medicines and their function/techniques to control glucose in blood : luke Metformin, sitagliptin, dapagliflozin, glimepiride etc
My husband was hospitalised was nearly 3 months due to covid and post covid symptoms.He never ate sweets, chocolates 🍫 from his young age.Doctors could treat him well because he never had diabetes.

Wonderful information for diabetics like me. I shall watch other videos of yours to learn more . It would be more effective if humor and Tamil phrases were reduced.
Yes what are your suggesting is absolutely correct .but please also mention the stress level factors as well.cause i have seen people who have flat stomach but still diabetic possible reason is the stress factor.
