Hello Dr Ekberg, some years ago I did 30 days water fasting. It wasn't difficult besides the progressive thirstiness - I had to stop it since no amount of water was able to quench my thirst. The coming back from the fast was a nightmare - long story short - my mucus membranes (and I suspect maybe even cell membranes to some extent) were leaking like a sift. I suspect this was a vitamins and mineral deficiency. Is there any provision of maintaining the normal intake of those while it doesn't count as eating (breaking the fast)?

@leonieharry2941 26 дней назад

First of all: thanks for this information! But there is a question left. if someone is insulin resistant - like most of all - would it work with this higher amount of carbs? I thought if someone is insulin restistant and the insulin spikes you will not get in autophagy even the proteins are low. Am I wrong? Would you please add this information to us? Many thanks! kind regards from Vienna/Austria

@MJ-hl1kk 12 дней назад

BASICALLY, he's saying that if multi-day water fasting is proving impossible for you, there is an almost equally effective alternative - just eat a lot of veges in soup or raw salad form, preferably both, using low carb-veges like leafy greens, cucumber, onions, garlic, etc. as far as possible. This will not only give you the vitamins and minerals, but can cause autophagy, as without protein in your food, your body will go looking for waste protein and use it up, which is the goal of fasting.

Yes. Extended fasting can be difficult. I regularly do 72-hr fasts; BUT, I worked my way up to it by first doing intermittent fasting (16/8 then 18/6 or 20/4) for several MONTHS. Then, I fasted for 24 hours with only coffee, water, and tea. Eventually, I got to the point where I needed only salted water and/or unflavored electrolyte powder in my liquid fasts. Now, I don't get hungry at all on a 72-hr fast, but I still sometimes feel tired -- so I just take an extra nap. My point: feeling weak or tired does not necessarily mean you're not meant to do extended water fasts! It's a process! It requires thought, trial, error, and time. So, as a carnivore, I avoid all fruits, veggies, and other plant foods (which include things like olive oil and herbal teas). And as carbs are actually sugar molecules, and I don't do sugar, my ONLY carbs come from unsweetened, strained Greek yogurt. So, while this alternative is nice, please realize that full-out water fasting could still be right for you IF you take the time and effort to work up to it!🙏🌹

@betty0672 Месяц назад

I’ve been doing that. Been working my way up, I already did a 48 hour fast and I felt really good, lots of energy, it was crazy! My next step is a 72 hour fast.

@vzenzaza Месяц назад

@@betty0672 That's great! Congratulations! It's great to have people like Dr. Ekberg and Dr. Berry as guides because much fasting research by "medical experts" is actually based on Ramadan fasting. I've actually written a few of these researchers, asking if they understand that there are different kinds of fasts (and thus different standards) and they never respond. For example, they like to claim that "dehydration can be beneficial," because dry fasting is not uncommon during Ramadan -- but as intermittent/extended fasters, we realize the importance of staying hydrated and maintaining a good electrolyte balance! I once did a five-day fast, but the literature seems to suggest that unless you're fighting a serious illness, 72-hr fasts are sufficient for reaching that "sweet spot" (autophagy, etc.). So all the best to you! You can do it!

I would have never tried this unless one of my trusted RU-vid doctors had explained it so well. Thank you again! Veggies do bother my digestion so I will keep it to a small selection, not much variety and probably well cooked for starters. Brothy soup with a little veg probably.

I'm working very hard to regain my health after a long bout with GI issues, and while I have been seeing tiny gradual improvements, I have been frustrated at how all my "tried and true" methods weren't really working for me any more. I watched this video and decided to try it. I am just entering day 3, and just WOW. After just 2 days, my blood pressure is excellent (116/62) and my blood sugar is nearly in the normal range. There are other improvements too, but I don't want to bore. Mind you I am several months into daily intermittent-fasting, low-ish carb clean eating (too low was triggering the GI issues) and daily exercise, but I wasn't seeing the results I was expecting or hoping for. I figured 5 days of this method was worth a shot. This has given me the breakthrough I have been praying for. I am so thankful for all the great, reliable content you put out Dr. Ekberg. 3 days to go! You can be sure I'll be repeating this 5-day FMD at least once a month for a long time.

I like this idea. A problem I have fasting are both mental and schedule. I feel as though I need to have lunch even if I'm not hungry out of habit or I feel like having dinner even if I'm not hungry out of habit. The other issue are business meetings usually done over food or drinks. Also in the workplace people bring in random food items like donuts or order pizza. We are presented with food all day everyday in all aspects of our lives. From fuel boards to RU-vid ads and just driving down the road past fast food places. It's very difficult to straight water fast in that environment so eating salads is a great idea.

Antony Chaffee's argument convincing that carnivore is the proper human diet, and I feel the best on it. He explains how autophagy is the natural state on a carnivore/keto diet due to the absence of excess insulin, not due to fasting. I think, this is why just a fasting mimicking can also work.

@Maria-zv9up 27 дней назад

@@michelangelobuonarroti916 High insulin blocks autophagy. When eating on a high fat and protein only carnivore/keto diet, you have low insulin and also not for long, so autophagy as a normal maintenance almost constantly takes place. Proof by study: after 3 months on keto/carnivore there are 4 times more and 4 times more effective mitocondria in cells. But it's better not to rely on my interpretation but to check out the referenced doctor's 15 min vid on why you don't need to fast for autophagy.

That said, the home version recommended by Dr. Sten sounds much more satisfying and fresh, with the added benefit of more fiber! However, if you struggle with proximity temptation, cooking at home might be challenging. Overall, I recommend trying either method! I have lost 5 lbs so far (I'm not overweight, so it might be more for some), but more importantly, the mental clarity I've gained has been worth it. I feel empowered and motivated to get back on track once I'm done! Also, I don't think I could have managed this with just water😬! Mad respect to those who can complete a 5-day water fast!

I don't know if anyone else has ever tried what I do, but I do 1tbsp of EVOO morning and evening (250 cal), electrolyte supplemented water (flavored for variety), with 2x (11g) Collagen Peptides (100 cal), because I'm not a fan of Bone Broth, 2oz Walnuts for Omega 3 (400 cal), usually less. So around 750 total calories per day, with no hunger or brain complaints. I do this to get into autophagy and continue doing this until I can't and hunger becomes dominant. Then I feed normally. Normal for Me is OMAD, EVOO (M/E), 1/3 lbs of ground beef (73/27)(grass fed) (150 cal), 3 eggs from pasture raise Chickens (210 cal), and continuing with the flavored water with (Collagen Peptides and electrolyte's) and the walnuts for snack, but no more that 1oz.

Sounds interesting. I would prefer yours as a fasting mimicking diet instead of Dr. Ekberg's vegetable one. I am trying to avoid plants because I have read (and listen) about the many natural toxic chemicals they produce to discourage animals from eating them, and problems with lectins, oxalates, high-histamine foods (most of which are plants), etc. I love bone broth, make it all the time from chicken, ham, turkey, beef - buying whole chickens to get all the bones to simmer for homemade broth. So good! I do eat avocados, which also are high in omega 3, but walnuts I would eat as well. I really have trouble doing the "true" fasting, of eating nothing for a day or 3. Not for me! Your plan is very do-able for me, whether I use your collagen and walnuts, or my personal tweaks. :)

@popsracer886 5 дней назад

@@u2kimbow Do your personal tweaks, that's how I made mine. I use the collagen because I started my weight loss at 247lbs, currently 173lbs, and the skin was getting loose. The collagen peptides seem to encourage the skin to reattach to the muscle with new connective bonds, now that the subcutaneous fat isn't as thick as it once was. I just wanted a snack with Omega 3's that wasn't high in calories and also had fiber. I pretend that I am gathering while fasting and not doing so well at hunting.

Dr. Valter Longo, the developer of the Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD), says you get SOME of the benefits water fasting, NOT ALL. (Many educators inflate it to "all". See Longo's book, The Longevity Diet) I've tried the FMD several times with different levels of carbs. I'm an experienced dry- and water-faster, but 5 days on a plant-based starvation diet was difficult for me--it kept my appetite up. Each FMD I lost a lot of muscle & lowered my metabolism (boomerang weight gain after + body temp reduced). Perhaps I should have increased resistance training during the fast, as studies show this helps prevent muscle loss. The FMD was originally used for people taking chemotherapy to reduce side effects. FMD can also be good for those who must take meds with food & cannot water fast. Otherwise it's easier to just fast for 3 days, AND you get ALL the benefits of fasting. But work up to it to teach your body & mind how to fast.

Sounds like insuline resistance to me. Perhaps a stage before pre-diabetes. I legit had that problem so I identify myself with it. As far as I've discovered for myself, its because you have too much stress and you're experiencing oxidative stress. 1. Excersize more to get your blood flowing (really... to get rid of excess carbon and normalise oxygen levels) 2. Get yourself wayyy more anti-oxidants; you may even want to overdose on it (take multiple normal dosis over de day, start small to get a feel for it). Vitamin C supplements and green tea should do it. 3. Start doing less while you're fasting; ultimately its because you're crashing through your energy. Its burning too fast. Lower the present stress, and you'll use less energy also. 4. Go low-carb or meat diet first. This will also help restore the insuline resistance. 5. I use supplements that help calm the body. CBD oil 30% (its a stronger variant than normally available) helps normalise stress responses by suppressing it a bit in specific ways. For some reason, camille tea works for people also. 6. Water may be regulating you because it may be flushing your minerals and vitamins. You may be drinking too much water for the amount of available nutrients you have. Try dry fast first. If that's also not working..then you're simply not in a position where fasting is good for you. Go to the doctor. I did, but they couldn't find anything, so perhaps they wouldn't find anything wrong with you either. Cheers!

This is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from a doctor who studied protein for many years,. People like Dr. Rhonda Patrick changed their views and started to follow his advice.

He recommends a protein rich first meal of the day and a protein rich last meal of the day though lesser than the first meal (where you have to survive the whole day).

@gmrbowden2133 26 дней назад

That is correct but this is for the purpose of a "fast". So if you were doing a more traditional fast you would be eating 0g of protein. The latest research definitely supports occasional fasting as beneficial to health. So doing it his way you would be eating, 75 g of protein for a 5-day fast, versus the alternative being a traditional fast of 0 g. So which one would use more protein?..... 🤔

Nutrition research, thanks to most research being funded by food manufacturers who are associated with big pharma, is basically in its infancy. Studies are designed to "prove" that there is nothing wrong with eating ultraprocessed foods. Researchers whose studies show otherwise will have trouble getting funding in the future. I think on the average a person should get the recommended protein intake. So, since I eat one meal a day, that should be a heavy protein meal. If I did alternate days of this and a heavy meat day, it should be twice the normal protein on those meat days.
