I have been doing this for a little bit. I also use MCT supplements during a fast every once in a while. it works! 8(ish) months. from 220 down to 162.4 - XL to medium - 40waist to 32.

Oh for crying out loud what’s the big deal about bone broth. Coming from Midwest cattle country my mother made bone broth routinely but we called it stock. If you are using beef use the long bones with some meat on them as well as the marrow and the ribs, cut them to fit a stock pot, add quality water to cover, season, add some carrot and onion if you wish and cook for hours over low heat until all the marrow is out of the bones and the meat has turned into sludge. Remove what is left of the bones and vegetables. Don’t strain or clarify or you will lose the all important marrow. Only use bone from grass fed and grass finished beef because bone marrow can absorb pesticides etc. When making bone broth from chicken, cook the chicken with the meat over low fire for hours and hours until the meat becomes a porridge. The Chinese usually add ginger and I do as well. Remove the bones from the chicken meat slurry. IMHO the clear broth in little cartons is to clear and pretty: I suspect the valuable marrow and other nutrients have been removed for cosmetic purposes. I am also suspicious about the source of bones: they could come from feedlot beef and poor quality chicken.
Thanks a lot! I am using bone broth to extend my fast. I’m at hour 55 on a water fast, and instead of just breaking my fast outright, I’m drinking bone broth! Thank you for this great info!
Amazing Thomas! I actually make my own bone broth. Super easy, ACV, bones, water and salt. 🤓 I have tried a bone broth fast a few times mainly when I've eaten some sneaky carbs.
I just tried a 3 day bone broth fast this week. Made it to 66 hours and had to eat. I’m 6’ 180lbs at the start (already had been doing IF with a good clean diet and exercise), but was shocked to see I dropped to 172.8 - 7.2lbs lost in just 66 hours. Did this to kickstart a 4 week keto diet and I’m positively surprised by the results and loved the the little experiment. Will definitely do this again in the future. Great stuff, keep the info coming and thank you for all your science based videos.
Thomas thank you so much for all the information and advices you give to everyone for free, I am huge fan and personally started strictly following keto with IF and it's going great. One thing that bothers me is that my dailly cals are arround 2k and it's so hard for me to eat that amount in 1h or 2h period of eating. Should I increase my eating period or im fine with like 1.5k calls for day (trying to loose weight as obese person)
As soon as you listed "for gut health" first I reached for the bone broth. Unfortunately, I grabbed the chicken bb by mistake, but it's better than nothing.
I started a 3-day bone broth fast today. I am looking forward to seeing how I do. I typically only do water fasting when doing 3 days so hopefully this wil have similar benefits.
I started a bone fast today. Sunday Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday I’ll be back on my regular regimen but I’m gonna do a fast once a week! Thank you for the info.
@@ceeez3072 I am sorry, I am just noticing this! It went fine! Much easier than water fasting. I have done it several times since. It’s expensive to me since I only like Brodo bone broth.
thank you very much for this video, I would not have thought of taking bone broth during my 18h fast, which I do to promote autophagy, if in addition I can improve my intestines that's great, I'll try. I make my own bone broth with grass-fed beef bones I have been in ketosis for 7 months and practice the 6 p.m. intermittent fast only a few times a week (when I work beyond 7 p.m.) I really have a significant improvement in my joints and in my condition in general. Thank you again for your advice
Love this! I did a 3 day bone broth fast a year ago. People told me it was REALLY bad for me. Good to see the facts here!☝ It was really hard to withdraw from all my carbs, but I felt better than ever afterward and never looked back 😌
That makes sense, since others say fasting does cause a stress on the body, especially the longer fasts, so having a bit of these nutrients would relieve the stress without any negative effects against a fast.
i have been doing intermittent fasting for years now but only recently extended it to 24 hours (give or take depending on the day) i am not sure if this is optimal but my typical monday meal is 12 eggs, beef bone broth with duck fat.. i feel that it really kickstarts my week.. i follow a mostly carnivore meal plan..
Just tried Gevity's Body Glue bone broth and it has 10x more collagen plus it's nice and fatty and satisfying. I add a teaspoon of ghee. Gonna use this to do a fat fast. Great video!
I've been water fasting for about a week with a tiny slip up thinking of switching to juice and bone brother for the next two weeks. Hey i'm getting kettle and fire from Walmart.
Extremely interesting. After this video I've watched your fat fast ones and I decided to embark on a 2-3 days fat fast. You have talked about oils and ghee, which leads me to wonder : would homemade mayonese made with avocado/ olive oil also be on this list? Thank you for all the efforts to create this amazing content. I do feel lucky to have someone like you out there that truly cares to bring some positive changes into people's lives.
Hi Thomas, I have been watching your videos for 2 years. I'm on a 9 day water fast and thinking of breaking it soon. I saw your 2 best options are with bone broth and lean cuts of meat, like chicken or fish. I want to know if the 0.9 grams of carbs in bone broth will affect me? I heard you say that carbs and fat will cause stem cells to live in fat cells versus organs and other important areas. If you can give me an explanation on bone broth and the 0.9 grams carbs it has. Thanks for your help
Bought several different brands of bone broth to help me recover from a gastric sleeve procedure and found none of them to be palatable. Had to add loads of onion powder, garlic powder, and salt to flavor it.
I've started a low FODMAP diet and I'm looking for a good sweetener to use. I've heard that erythritol is generally digested well but research has shown that it can worsen fructose malabsorption. What are your thoughts?
I definitely have gut issues, and no health insurance. For a FACT when I eat no solid food for a day or so, my stomach is flatter! It's not about calories, I can go ham on some calories from juice, broth, tea - it is absolutely that my digestive system has a hard time with solid food. I've tried every powder, probiotics, prebiotics, so on. I still have digestive issues! I don't fast, because of mental health issues which lead to binge eating when I fast - when I started eating smaller meals, more often, starting my day with a powder supplement and a protein shake only, I have lost 10 pounds in 4 weeks. I have cut back NO calories, but have started to go lower carb and my digestive issues are worlds apart from where they were! I have a coworker who eats 4 meals in an 8 hour shift and is skinny and he scoffs if I don't eat solids before noon, but he doesn't understand digestive issues! Giving your digestion a break helps so much and I am living proof! I still have about 42 pounds to lose but when I learned to avoid foods my body doesn't like to digest - whole beans, whole corn, heavily processed foods - and do fluids only before noon, the weight melts off and my belly is flatter. I ran out of my protein shakes and have been struggling and am now back to having digestive upset because I've had to eat solids in the morning! If you are a female who is struggling with bloating, load stomach, gas, etc, try eating lighter and doing stretches with no solids. The science of bone broth, I've looked into it, it is suss. Sorry. But broth is a great sipping liquid regardless and bone broth is the best!
I don't want to take away from the sponsor but making your own bone broth is beyond easy, ridiculously cheap, you can monitor what goes into it and the best part? cut waaayyyy down on your food waste!! (no need to add extra fat either as you dont have to skim the natural fat like the manufacturers do ;) )
I would use ghee. You can find at Costco or whole foods market (moe expensive than Costco, could be higher quality?) Ghee is more healthy and taste better. They called it clarified butter

Yes it can cause insomnia if you're not prepared. Fasting is kind of like a skill, you have to practice it overtime to get better at it. If you try to go straight into a multi day fast when you've never fasted before you will likely suffer a lot.
I at one time thought why wouldnt a mostly avocado diet work. Its lind of like the bullet proof coffee scenerio, i figured eat your first meal of just a couple avocados then have an early evening meal. Well news flash if you are ever going to eat more than one avocado better buy some sugar free fiber supplement unless you relish the idea of crapping baseballs 😂
Starting to feel sick, so going to try to speed up recovery by doing a fast/ only eating broth for a couple of days. Hopefully it will be a fast recovery.
I used to use kettle and fire, until I started making my own broth. I ran out of bones one week and bought some Kettle and Fire, took one sip and threw it out. I can't drink it anymore after making my own.
How long have you been on keto for? This usually happens the first 2-3 weeks when your microbiome gets adapted to having to consume more fiber and more fat rather than carbs
I wished I could find a comparable alternative to bone broth, I came off a 2 day fast and I drank a cup with a little salt and I got nauseated. Haven’t tried that hard not to throw up since middle school. Any ideas?
@Phil Jermakian thank you, I figured it may be ok because I keep alot of these on hand already so now I don't have to look for bone broth. I do exercise and walk alot so this helps, thanks again 🤗
@Phil Jermakian best is cooking your own broth. Buy organic grassfed pasture raised marrow bones, oxtails, backrib. Add ginger, onion garlic ànd cinnamon to get rid of strong smell from meat. Yummy and healthy
Step up the game a bit ---- tube search --- anti inflammatory herbs and spices --- keto anti inflammatory bone broth Marys nest ( add to and do a mix of bones , grass fed beef bones , chicken , turkey, pork, very fresh fish heads and bones) also tube search - egg shells kendberrymd
many good free recipes online. ACV, salt, carrots , celery, onion, basil, leave water, marrow bones from a good butcher, put in a big pot, or a slow cooker. longer the better.
I've been subscribed to this guy for a while I tried the low carb keto diet and I didn't sleep for almost 2 months I was also doing intermittent fasting . Never again
I do OMAD and I've found that if I do bone broth, I don't lose any water weight the next day. In fact, my weight goes up a pound or two. These pounds stay there and I can go awhile before I really start taking any weight off again. I fluctuate about 5 pounds a week so it's kinda no big deal. My weight loss has been VERY slow over the past 3 years but it's coming off.
sir what is the alternative of bone broth for vegetarians . that shouldn't break fasting . there is a lot of videos in you tube but I won't trust my of them. please do a video of alternative of bone broth for vegetarians like me.🙏🙏
I feel like the terminology is increasingly confusing. If a fast is defined as “no calories,” this isn’t a fast. It feels squirrely to label it as such. I do find your content super helpful and informative but I prefer to think of eating breaks of under 24 hours as TRF rather than fasting, since the effects are so dramatically different after the 24-hour mark. For me, a “fast” is no calories for 24 hours or more. Consuming bone broth is, by definition, not a fast. I’d love to hear a different frame for this strategy.
Hi Thomas, just discovered your videos. They're great, very informative! I had a quick question, if you or anyone else could answer please. Would there be any benefits or dangers of doing a bone broth fast and a water fast in conjuction with each other? Like a 2 day bone broth fast followed by a 3 day water fast? I found a lot of info about the fasts separately, but nothing about doing them together. I think it might be a good way to get the gut benefits, and then the autophagy and cell regeneration.
ANY ANIMAL BASED FOOD IS BAD FOR YOU, KETTLE AND FIRE MUST BE PAYING YOU SOME AMOUNT OF MONEY, BONE BROTH, BULL BROTH, OR BULL SHIT, HAVE YOU WATCHED " THE GAME CHANGERS"
