[Music] hello everybody my name is pastas villain meter Toledo a medical doctor and I'm the head of the research and scientific department of the clinic pukenga Wilhelm II in availing in South Germany and marvelous house Spain I'm here in this family company you can say treating more than 6,000 persons a year and I have followed the fasting of thousands of patients since 40 years we had the necessity to document scientifically this enormous clinical experience we have seen so many years at Boeing avail Hemme and I'm very proud to talk to you today about one of our last studies published in Auton 2019 called Effects of periodic fasting and fatty liver index a prospective observational study published in nutrients this has been made with 697 patients that were observed and out of this ones we had a couple of hundred people who were limit in the fatty liver condition others who had a definitive fatty liver with an index higher than 60 it was 264 patients 38 we're diabetic type 2 so this is a pretty large collective and we wanted to measure the fatty liver index you know maybe that fatty liver as a condition many people have 6 to 33 percent of the people in the industrialized countries and this is very serious diseases and this disease can turn into liver cirrhosis there are not so many treatments for fatty liver and it is asymptomatic at the beginning so the people don't notice they have the problem it comes from overeating especially of eating carbohydrates and especially fructose but also from sedentary teen not doing enough exercise and the usual western lifestyle so when these people come to the clinic and go for a fast we wanted to check if as in the adipose tissue of course you lose fat when you fast not even in your abdomen but all over the body and also in your blood the triglycerides are going down so the metabolism of fasting is using fat as fuel so it's very normal that the body tries to find the fat there where it is first in the blood in the tissues and of course in the liver we could observe that this condition of fatty liver called non-alcoholic fatty liver disease ever dudes in the Nash non-alcoholic steatohepatitis this is a much worse condition it's already an inflammation of the liver and then in liver cirrhosis and we could document that during a fasting the longer the best you could go back in the severity the people who were instead we're part artists came back to fatty liver and the one who were in this condition of non our colleague fatty liver index could come in a more and less severe situation so how can we understand that this index is made of four parameters the first one is a liver enzyme called the gamma D T gamma DT is an enzyme that is coming up when the liver suffers or is inflamed and in fasting we know that the gamma DT is going down then the second parameter of this index is the circumference of the abdomen and we know that you lose fat in the abdomen and this parameter also is get got reduced the third Parham is the blood lipid the triglycerides and they go down and the last parameters is the BMI which is a reflection of the all-over body weight so that all index is going down and this could be an extraordinary opportunity for people suffering fatty liver that they don't evolute in these more severe stages which are sometimes not reversible anymore so drug situation is not available but you have something in your body which Nature has put inside of you you have the genetic and the metabolic program to be able to leave a period of days without eating triggering in your body the metabolic switch toward consumption of fat and this is why the fat also in the liver is reduced the periods of fasting we had in this study where in average 8 comma 5 days but it went from six days to 20 days so this is one of the four studies we published in 2000 19 out of the experience of the clinic in booking of Eleni which exists since 70 years this is a big big hope for patients and I hope I could convince you you can find this article read it and you can advise it to your patients if you are a colleague so I suggest rediscover your ability to fast every human can every animal can and you need just the right setting and a professional guidance thank you for watching you
