- Like everybody else, I've
gained a pound or two a year
since I was 30.
I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes.
My A1C was over 14 and I
had no idea that it was
out of control the way that it was.
I knew that I'd probably had
it based on the symptoms.
So I just tried to control
it with diet, medication,
but in the end, it just
wasn't working for me,
what I was doing so I decided
it was time to switch doctors,
got a recommendation to
Dr. Julie and it kinda,
she rocked my world.
- First came upon that
study, Dr. Panda's study,
it was very easy to understand.
It's so elegantly done
that someone who's not
in high level research
could understand this paper.
- Big gnarly study with a lot of detail,
tons of charts and graphs, big words,
I'm back and worth with Wikipedia,
took like four hours to
get through that study.
- They embrace the information
because it's something new
and it is a void in most
people's knowledge base
diet and it does sort of
dispel this myth that you
need to eat before bedtime
or you need to have protein before bedtime
- So on the flight back to the west coast,
I read it again for 4 hours.
It was on that flight that
I said, I gotta try this.
- So the simple experiment
that we did was we took
exactly identical set of mice --
- One group was eating ad libitum.
So they got to eat their
food throughout the day
whenever they wanted to eat it and there,
on a super size me diet,
like that guy from that movie.
- I started with a high fat
are given this fatty
food and this fatty food
causes different diseases
starting from diabetes, obesity,
liver damage, cancer, and IBD,
inflammatory bowel disease,
et cetera.
- The lean mouse, without a doubt,
became obese, gained weight.
The lean mouse that was on
the time restricted regime
actually stayed lean and that's really
what caught my attention.
- So even though they eat
the same amount of calories,
at the end, the time
restricted mice are lean
compared to the ad lib fed mice.
- And they could stay progressively fitter
and all they had to do
was change when they eat,
not what they eat.
- Your body needs a daily
fasting period and that
eating erratically and kind
of eating all over the day
takes away from our body's natural rhythm
to say this is when we
eat, this is when we rest,
and it's hitting a manual override button.
- We work with a circadian rhythm.
Our bodies are on a clock basically
which is aligned with the 24
hour rotation of the earth.
- The circadian rhythm
and turning on and off
of more than 10,000 genes is
the largest regulatory network
that we know that exists in human.
the liver, the pancreas,
and the fat cells get
tremendously disrupted
when you eat late at night or when you eat
for more than 12 hours during the day.
- So if the liver clock
tracks when we eat,
what we have to be more
careful about is when we eat
and when we fast.
- And we have to stay in beat with earth
in order to be healthy.
eating by 7 P.M. at the latest
because their pancreas goes to sleep.
- Just before you wake up,
somewhere around 4 A.M.,
growth hormone, adrenaline and so on,
all get pumped up.
You're basically activating
yourself for the day.
So for all those people who say oh,
you have to get up and eat
because you're not gonna have energy,
like your body has already prepared you
for everything you're gonna do.
You don't need to do it again.
- [Michael Voiceover]
And so during the day,
we need to be able to go out
and hunt and get our food
and do all those kinds of good things
so we need access to energy.
We need to be able to
metabolize energy quickly
and we need to be able to make
sugar as quickly as possible
and we also need to be able
to oxidize fats for energy.
- So at night, we can't
absorb the fat and the salt
and the sugar.
Your body just takes it and shoves it
right into a fat store.
- In the evening once
we get ready for bed,
our body switches to another
mode and the circadian rhythms
for processing energy go down
and the circadian rhythms
that help with the repair of
the body, finding cancer cells,
renewing all of the bodily systems kick in
and those are the
strongest during the night,
immune system function, et cetera.
If you eat during the night,
you disrupt all of those
mechanisms and so not only
are you predisposing yourself
to diabetes and obesity
and hypertension,
but you're also predisposing yourself
to a pro-inflammatory
condition throughout the body
which makes it easier
for cancer to take hold.
- If you're trying to repair a highway,
you have to stop the traffic.
So similarly our body cannot repair itself
if we continue to eat.
- The body makes less insulin
so for the same sugar load
that you would give
yourself during the day
that would not cause your blood
sugar to rise significantly,
for that same sugar load after
at night will cause a significant
rise in your blood sugar
mimicking the effects of diabetes.
- It was a study that came
out in a neurology journal
that found if you were
giving artificial nutrition
in the hospital,
that patients did better
if you didn't give it
around the clock.
They gave the nutrition
in a shortened time frame,
they're connecting the
person back to the day cycle,
they have a better outcome.
- Just having weighed myself this morning,
two months now have
gone by and I've dropped
somewhere in the neighborhood of 29 pounds
just with Dr. Julie.
- It wasn't hard to do because it was just
I had to ask them to make.
All they had to do was
apply this shortening
their total time of eating during the day.
Hi, Nina!
- Hi, Dr. Julie.
- How are you?
Good to see you.
- Good, how are you?
- Good!
Thanks for coming today.
So we're gonna go over your
bloodtest, is that right?
- Mm hmm.
- And you had them drawn already.
- Mm hmm.
- Perfect.
So when I have people come
in and they'll tell me,
"Oh well, my parents
have high blood pressure.
"So that's probably why I have it."
It's not always a genetically
inherited problem.
It's possibly a lifestyle
inherited problem
because we carry with
us the type of habits
that our parents brought us up to have
and if late night eating
and indulging slightly
on the weekends was
something that we saw them do
or that we were allowed to do growing up,
we're gonna carry that habit with us.
- And that first night was a struggle.
my plane down in Burbank
an hour and a half drive
to Santa Barbara and thinking okay,
where am I gonna stop to get
something sweet for the road
