I'm going to start putting more of my content out via *Email since RU-vid is making it harder* and harder to reach my audience. If you want to be *_kept notified of videos and new things_* , please go to www.thomasdelauer.com/life-optimization-tactics/

I dread to count how many videos I’d watched since discovering you a couple of weeks ago, I’m obsessed! Your content is exactly what I’ve been looking for - someone to translate studies or bring them to light in a way people can understand. Thank you!! I have so much faith in your content, it’s helped me begin to build a better relationship around food as I have periods where I struggle with disordered eating, I know there’s a fine balance, but your content is helping me stay on the correct side of the line - thank you!!!

Thank you for all your research and knowledge. I have been able to lose 60 lbs. so far.

Turmeric keeps body warm , takes out inflammation and makes joints flexible. I started adding Turmeric and cinnamon to my morning milk coffee , its helping

I’m just beginning fasting on a consistent basis. I fasted from last night til tonight at 7:15 pm. I Frank’s water & plain black tea all day. I just ordered Turmeric Curcumin with Black Pepper & Ginger, Qunol Turmeric Extract to add to my water. It comes tomorrow. I’m very excited I also paid for a month of an app for fasting to help me time it & guide me on what best to eat & drink & it recommended Turmeric Curcumin with Black Pepper & Ginger Turmeric Extract to add to my water as I fast. I just subscribed to you today as well to help me learn more about fasting & im super excited !!!

I am a nurse of 38 years, a critical care, Cardiology nurse… I appreciate your research and your understanding and respect for western medicine is separate from a holistic approach to well being. “Apples to oranges.” I often have patients ask why those of us practising medicine do not use herbs, sunlight, diet to treat patients. Truth is, I educate daily on all of these things but typically by the time the patient sees myself or the physician, they are in an acute state that needs to healed often times because of their lifestyle and choices. I love the research data and studies that you reference. Patients often Google, and that is not necessarily a credible source. medical people do use journals, Test studies and research. I sincerely appreciate you and plan to direct patients to your videos when I’m teaching

Here in Iran we use turmeric in EVERYTHING! Meat, fish, rice, vegetables. It is delicious and is a natural healer and medicine.

This is great to know. Always wondered if it would break a fast or not. Looks like i’ll be putting this into my coffees during my fast!

From what I understand, turmeric is best absorbed when taken with fat, black pepper, and heat (i.e. when used in cooking). A turmeric tea would be a nice way to consume it. It's also good on mixed vegetables with lots of butter :)

I sprinkle cayenne and turmeric on my eggs every morning and I mix it in my green tea at night.

Love turmeric on my scrambled eggs. Killer spice.

Thomas, I'd really be interested in hearing more about what the cumulative benefits of regular fasting over time are (you talked about that around the 7:00 mark). I've been regularly fasting now for two years and I really do feel like a lot of things in my health have improved and it does seem like it gets easier over time. It reminds me of strength training in that regard. It's very encouraging to think that over time I'm deriving more and more benefits from fasting. Thanks as always for wonderful content!

Another great video with tons of great information, Keep up the great work Brother!!

Hello Thomas What is the best time to drink turmeric during fasting? Before bed or morning? Thank you

every morning my breakfast is - apple cider vinegar with turmeric and ginger

Great information, Mr. Delauer. Thanks

I love turmeric

Clear and concise information here Thomas - Thanks!

I think it’s super cool that your have a commercial that I actually want to hear. I have arthritis so I’ve been putting turmeric in my black coffee. So wow I get multiple benefits. Thank you

Great information, do you have a recipe on how to make our own? That’s keto friendly? Thank you!!!

Thomas appreciate all your content changed the way I eat workout think about food. Im 60 years old in great shape. Your the man keep on trucking

Marinating chicken turkey or fish in turmeric based seasoning is deliciouse i been using it past few months and its great

In my fasting now i had no idea, i use the powder &tea i have so much energy plus you use the restroom a lot. It Works. 9th day of Fasting no Food only water &tea

Where ever there is fat, black pepper and heat in a recipe, add tumeric!

has good autophagy effects, helping cell repairs and reducing risk of certain cancers, so beneficial in that sense particularly.

Are turmeric and black pepper capsules effective? Or we should always opt for powders?

Paused video. Went to the kitchen to add turmeric to my remaining cup of coffee. Resumed video. 😁

As always, great video Thomas. One thing that would be super helpful for your videos would be adding doses of how much to take. Appreciate the quality content!

Great video and info! How much turmeric and black pepper are needed daily?

I already cook almost everything with turmeric since 2014 really almost everything! But now I’m going to have a turmeric shot before my run 🏃‍♂️ in the morning too! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us 👌

There is no Indian recipe without turmeric in it.

when is the best time to take it for max effectiveness... beginning, mid, or end of fast??

Ty for all that wisdom and knowledge u have shared 🙏👏🤗💞

Turmeric (+pepper) helps with so so much ❤️

Hey Thomas, great content as always. Is there any way to make a comparison? For example, fasting for 16 hours, then drink some curcumin, and then 30 minutes later drink some ACV and exercise would be equivalent to 20 hours fast. That would be amazing to quantify.

The answer I was looking for thanks

so should I take curcumin ~2h after my last meal for the day, to jumpstart my fasting? Or should I take curcumin when I'm well into my fasting period to deepen it and help with autophagy?

Thanks again, as always, great information!!

Turmeric and Cummins I would mix up a small portion to drink into the morning for a lease two weeks , I don't why I stop I could feel the difference, , Okinawa , Beautiful island, thank you very much love the video thank you again semper fi,blessing to the family

Should we add Pepper w turmeric to make it more effective?

Amazing content as always. 🇵🇹

Great to know that ... Thank you very much.Take care of you and your family...

You do need to be aware that turmeric/curcumin thins your blood so don't overdo it.

Turmeric contains 3-5% Curcumin. Turmeric has over 300 components with Curcumin being just one of them. Curcumin may be the most powerful compared to singular components but as a whole the whole root may be even more powerful. Personally, I take both, Curcumin and Turmeric with black pepper to enhance absorption.

So turmeric wont break a fast?

Love this content. More of this please!!

I have. A large cup of water, add 1 tbsp ACV, 1 tbsp turmeric juice and 1 tbsp ginger juice. A dash of cayenne a dash of cracked black pepper a drop of Stevie or Monk Fruit😊 I wonder if that breaks my fast in the AM

Which is the best time to consume turmeric, during fast (early in the morning?) and how much ?

Thanks Thomas for your videos 👋

Everyday Japanese meals are 20 percent caloric deficient. Maybe that’s why their average longevity is 90 years

If it's like a dry regular turmeric teabag, do we get the same results? As opposed to a fresh grinded turmeric kinda juice?

Does mixing turmeric, black pepper, Cayenne pepper and ACV in a 12 once of a glass of water will stop fasting??

Use with caesin protein and pepper, its normally used that way, milk pepper turmeric

Can you do it with black pepper together while fasting?

So do you use it while ur fasting or during ur feeding window

When do I drink the tea? Before or after a fast?

Quercetin + Turmeric 3x a day + eliminating fermented foods + avocados (sad) has finally subdued my histamine issues - itching. Awesome.

I never knew about using it with a fast but I put it in my eggs every single day.

Can I use the powdered turmeric that’s been in my cupboard a year or do I need fresh turmeric?

Thanks for sharing this information

I'm thinking tumeric and black pepper tea with a spoon of fish oil would be a good combo

What kind of turmeric do you recommend? What supplement? I’ve been thru video after video trying to figure that out.

Do not use turmeric if you have gallstones or a bile duct obstruction. Bleeding problems👍

Thank you Thomas 😊

I add tumeric,ginger,black pepper to my fasts its a liquid combination we have here in Australia so glad Thomas approves.🙂

I know the benefits of turmeric ,, but I don’t like the taste 😬

If I was to do a strict fast I'd probably do this drink right before bed or right before my last hour of feeding ends.

how about ginger tea? is it as good as turmeric tea? (i plan to boil ginger in water)

Okay, so I hate the taste of turmeric. Will taking it in capsule form screw up my fast?

But when should I take in turmeric ?

Sir please explain turmeric/curcumin effects on testosterone...

wow! This guy is smart. Thanks.

Good to know info. Been using Tumeric for several years now.

Excellent clip.is fermented turmeric n nano turmeric same?

So is it better to take turmeric with the last meal, than with the first meal during intermittent fasting?

I lost 8 kg with keto within 3 months. Than did a week Clenbuterol, it only did 3 kg. After that it haltered for a few days (Christmas, hehe) . And now I am doing keto omad with ACV and lifting heavier (researching technique made such a difference). Its too early to say how much weight Im losing, but I can see my body toning very fast and I feel amazing.

Dudes biceps are lit!

Yes, okay, but, how do we consume it because a lot breaks a fast! I suppose I could put it in my tea/coffee!

Thank you for this video, I'm currently fasting and needed a pain killer and I didn't want to use nsaids. Turns out the curcumin tablets will actually enhance my fast.

You did the ratio of omega 3 about nuts. Could you do the composition on seeds? Or they are all ok?

is this the case with all NRF2 pathway activators, such as SULFORAPHANE, Quercetin?

Will ginger and or cinnamon break a fast (water fast)?

In the month of Ramadaan we muslims us turmeric powder it works great

If AMPK activation is the goal then Berberine is perhaps a better choice than Turmeric. Taken orally Berberine is just as effective as Metformin at lowering blood sugar and activating AMPK without the side effects of Metformin. Berberine is not very bioavailable, but it doesn't have to be, the amount that is absorbed from taking 500mg three times a day is plenty for the desired metabolic effects, plus it's easier to find in stores and online, and much cheaper than fermented turmeric, than the enhanced absorption formulations of Curcumin with black pepper extract or a micellar curcumin. Berberine also modulates the microbiome. It has anti-bacterial action against pathogenic gram negative bacteria and yeast strains, while actually promoting the growth of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium... which on a side note is why I also make my own yogurt with specifically selected strains of bacteria, as the cultures in virtually all commercial yogurt are formulated for desired texture and flavor of the yogurt and not for the probiotic health benefits. This way along with diet, fasting and taking the Berberine, I can control the environment of my microbiome better than the average person. I sometimes take the Micellar Curcumin AND Berberine, but most often I just take the Berberine and there really is no noticeable benefit to taking both over just the Berberine.

Permission to experiment on thyself... Check! LOL! That's pretty much what allowed me to figure out a major inhibitor of my physical progress when I got into my 30s. I am all for it! Little things like this to change the mix makes nutrition fun and more effective. I have almost removed dairy entirely from my diet and combined all of these tips and tricks and transformed myself over the course of months and years.

I drink turmeric tea (Yogi Honey Chai Turmeric Vitality) during 14-15 hours fast and I love curry and I often add it into my meal I don't know whether it's autophagy or whatsoever, but the most recent pulmonary (Feb 17) indicates my lung function completely restored from covid 2 years ago which caused lung damage I do 14-15 hours intermittent fasting 3-4 days a week starting January

I just received my turmeric today! 1 lb of it! I added it to my cod tonight!

Will any kind of turmeric work equally well? I know that not all cinnamon is the same, is it the same with turmeric? Or can I just grab any old bottle of turmeric at the supermarket?

Yes tumeric is awsome but I find that during a fast its really hard on my stomach. Very uncomfortable stomach pain and nausea 😵

Any worries about Tumerones/lowering testosterone, I personally like Capsaicin salt and ACV. I use FYRSALT from ketorubs.

So I should take the curcumin during the fast and not while I’m eating?

I do a combination of tumeric and ginger.

Sometimes I think I will live unhealty and die because everything healty costs so much.

So can I eat Tumeric or have a fresh strong Tumeric tea? Some one please answer 😃🙏

So we can have lots of Tumeric tea without breaking our fast?

drinking turmeric green tea now watching this video currently on 4th day of fast. started 2 days dry and doing the other 3 days on water. With a pinch of salt this tea feels like a meal and desert at the same time without feeling guilty and horrible after a desert

So I should chug apple cider vinegar and turmeric smoothies? Kidding - thanks for the info!!

Is it acceptable to use turmeric during fasting?

Can I just take turmeric capsules with hot water?

As per the study: twice a day with 800 mg of curcumin and 8 mg of piperine.
