Dr. Uzma Jafri is a Family Physician Board certified in FM and Geriatric Medicine. She runs a mobile private practice and concurrently did that while working nights as a hospitalist in a busy medical center. The shift work and stress of the job, as well as running out of space on her metabolic dance card, left her at her highest weight in 2016 when she realized she had to practice what she practiced on her patients at long last. Having never before struggled with weight and newly learning that whatever she had told her patients in the past regarding nutrition was defunct, Dr. Jafri had to go “back to school” to put all the pieces together that she always referred out to RDs and diabetic educators and apply it in her own life. As a practicing Muslim, fasting had always been a part of her life, and using it in conjunction with a ketogenic lifestyle, she easily shed 32 pounds in 3 months and kept it off. The science of fasting made sense to her as a person of faith, but it only made sense to her as a physician once she settled on learning more about obesity medicine.
In this episode, we break down the science and feasibility of fasting. Is it safe? How do you start? What actually happens to your body and blood sugar when you begin fasting? If you've been curious to start, check out this episode!
