I am 51 years old and I have been practicing water fasting (no food and only water) for prolonged periods since I was 22 years old. Until I was 45 years, I used to fast once a year for periods of 7-18 days. Lately, I have been fasting twice a year for 3-5 days. The following points are a summary of my experience with fasting - I have never felt hungry during my fast. I feel the desire to eat when smelling food or watching others eat, but never felt hungry - First two days are the hardest, then I usually experience a spike of energy and good feeling - Light excercise is a must on daily bases. I usually walk or garden - Food tastes much better after breaking the fast. Your senses of food taste improve in a great way after fasting Hope the above helps you enjoy fasting and improve your health

I am on my 86th hour toward the way on a 185 hour fast - I feel less hungry as I progress - and I’ve lost 5.6 lbs after cheating on the keto diet - i’ve found the key for losing weight is keto + occasionally prolonged fasting especially when hitting a plateau - just fast for 3 days (72 hours) and you’ll break that stall in weight loss - i’ve done this weekly for nearly 30 weeks - and the pounds are dropping off like crazy. I started at 368.0 lbs on April 4th 2023, and as of this morning February 26th 2024 I am 204.4 on my digital scale. A loss of 163.6 lbs in almost 11 months next Monday March 4th 2024.

Nelson, how did you handle the diabetic medication(s) that you were on when you began fasting.
@CatrachoDNYC
@CatrachoDNYC Год назад
Hal, I am prescribed glipizide and metformin. Always had issues with glipizide because it would drop my levels below 80 and my body would react all types of crazy, cold, shakes, stutter etc. Finally the doc changed the doses from 10 mg glipizide and 1000 mg metformin to half of each. Once I started fasting things changed again because I cut all fruit, sugar, bread and so on so the medication would have the same effect as before even though the doses were lower, I gave up the glipizide first and as I progressed with fasting I replaced the metformin with the berberine. I also supplemented with zinc, vitamin b12, vitamin c, vitamin D, potassium and magnesium. Check your glucose levels constantly, your body might react different depending on how bad or not your diabetes is. I was really doing bad but my body really reacted well to the positive changes.

yes, it is amazing that your hunger actually goes away. i now go on 1 meal a day and add a snack of a handful of nuts if i feel i need something. i would have never thought i would go all day and not be hungry. also, food tastes so much better. and if any honey or sweet fruit gets in, the sweetness puts me in a momentary trance.

I would also invest in a zero carb electrolyte powder to mix with some of your water. That way it will help keep your electrolyte levels at a good place. Too much water can flush out your electrolytes.

20 years ago, several days before my chemotherapy for breast cancer, an oncologist (not my primary oncologist) told me about fasting and eating whole foods. I was overweight then and this doctor was saying things to me that I had NEVER heard of - don't eat for two days, what!!?? Fasting will do what to my body, huh?? I did receive chemo but I fasted every 36 hours as well. I truly...truly believe that I'm still here because I changed my diet and fasted. Now, I eat on Wednesday and Sunday mornings - in which includes anything I want in moderation (no bread, no sugar, no grains). I do exercise 3 days a week, nothing major and I'm 100+ pounds lighter than I was then and have kept the weight off. I dont take ANY medications and I'm getting close to 60.

I have done extensive research on long term water fasting and decided that I am going to do it. There are many genetic mental disorders and health issues in my family and I feel that I can fix my dna by long term water fasting. I have been bone broth fasting for 10 years and for the past month I've been fasting 2 days and eating 2 days in preparation for my 40-50 day water fast. I also did a 3 day dry fast last year and words cannot explain the spiritual experience that I had. So I'm 4 days into my 40-50 day water fast- I'll stop when I feel the time is right.

I was lost in the mountains. I couldn't remember how I got there. It seemed like I suddenly woke up. I was extremely hungry and a little weak. I drank water from a spring I found and there was plenty of pine trees and wild onions near the spring. I stuffed my pockets with the wild onions and pine nuts. I found a 2 liter soda bottle near there and I filled it up and headed out. Fortunately I knew enough about outdoor survival and after a few minutes of walking I knew about where I was. I made it to an outdoor supply store that was approx. 7 miles away. Later on when I was examined by the doctor I told him what happened and I couldn't remember anything until it felt like I woke up and realized where I was. I told him the last thing I remembered. I had been in the woods for 5 days! I guess I survived eating the pine nuts and wild onions for several days but I don't remember that either. My dad had passed away recently and the doctor said I probably had a case of Delayed Post Traumatic Amnesia and my dad's passing was the cause. I glad it was in the late spring and not in winter.

Background-over 60, female, diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder (MG). I became overweight after having multiple pregnancies in a short time. I was hungry all of the time, a binge eater, and food was one of the things I lived for. A few years ago, I could not turn over in bed without help, 3 years after diagnosis. This state was culmination of declining over a period of 2 years. Forward to being tired of living like this and quit eating (no water for almost 3 days). After about 5 days (3 dry, 2 water only), I started improving enough that I decided to watch what I ate and start seeing if I could improve my life as it was, rather than giving up. Three years later, I started a slow decline again. I have done 2 short fasts (48-72 hours) and included some supplements and seeing more improvement. Now, I eat OMAD or two within short window (2-6hrs varies, 8hr open rare). The foods I eat are mostly single ingredient foods that I prepare at home, but I have eaten out and just made best choice that I could. Fasting and limiting foods to whole foods (no added sugar, lower carbs, higher protein/fat) has silenced the constant food noise. I can eat like 'normal' people. I also feel better, MG symptoms are better, sleep is better.

Oh I'm the same way! never cared for eggs... have dairy allergy so why eat bf ? Cup of juice or fruit. Hungry by 10. Lunch was my dinner. Always Felt worse on diet my primary had me on. So ditched hers back to my twice a day meals. blood tests were best she had seen it in a while lol she wanted to know what I was doing. Whatever it was keep it up. :-) I had gone back to my old eating habits minus chips and lunch meats. Already had given up processed foods. lunch meat and pizza were my downfalls. Fixed my gerd and ibs on my own no pills. Lime/lemon water works wonders! just need to understand your gut pH levels to get good results. Take care! good luck on your fasting habits.

Fantastic, explained a lot of questions I've had about the inter-relationship between Keto and Fasting. I've found low blood sugar to be the most intense during keto induction phase or fasting in the first 3-4 days. If you can maintain discipline to get through that period, the rest is much easier without having hunger pains. After 12-14 hours from a no breakfast morning until dinner time, I get a slight notification that I 'might' be hungry, but its trivial and can be dismissed easily if you want to cut calories even more. I found it kind of hard to actually the full 1800 calories a day the last time I was on keto. Trying again next week, only adding daily workouts to the routine.

Day 5 completed ☑️ (In 40 mins 😮) I sometimes struggle with 18hrs intermittent so I’m very proud for my 1st try at an extended fast. I was in so much pain the day I started. I kneeled to pray and I heard subconsciously to fast for 3 days. And so it began, no pain meds (I have chiari malformation/fibromyalgia/cfs/chronic migraines) just simple spring water . I rested the 1st 3 days in bed just up and down to make meals for the children. Day 4 I drove to Tesco to buy fruit to break my fast but decided to continue….. no one mentions the spiritual side but there is a deeper connection and much more awareness. I have been cranky at times but WOW the inflammation in my body has dramatically reduced and may sound silly to some but I could jump of the floor with two feet, I’ve had no migraines since day 3 and overall feel amazing and sad that I’m going to eat again. It feels great to be alive , I’ve cleaned my home throughly from top to bottom today with vigorous energy. And. Tomorrow day 5 1/2 I have a blood test maybe I will stop tomorrow when completed 6 days, maybe not. If your reading this go for it, pray meditate and cleanse your body with salts ❤❤❤

Did you take vitamins and minerals during the 21days? Did you monitor your blood sugar level? I want to do long hour fasting too to lower my cholesterol levels because my doctor wants to put me on medication. However my blood sugar level went below to 45 after less than 20hour fast before blood work. I wasn't hungry just a bit of weak. I'm not diabetic either.

Yes, lemon water, pink salt and suplements, after day 4 hunger goes away. The fast dropped my colesterol from 460 to 140 and my triglycerides from 1300 (yea thats right) to 150. And after the fast you develop a better relationship with food, autophagy is such and amazing process.

My dad is 79 years old and is in excellent health. He has fasted twice per week (Sun/Wed) since he was 18 and has fasted 40 days multiple times. Obviously it can be done and in his case, seems to have caused no ill effects :)

I'm at 34hours, aiming for 3 days. I'm 52yrs old. My concern is my medication. I have bipolar disorder and I'm also anemic. I'm just worried, that if I drink my medication without eating,that it could be bad for my stomach. I struggle with arthritis and I hope this will help with inflammation. Thank you Dr. Ekberg, I watch your videos everyday day. I've been doing intermittent fasting now for 5 weeks.

I started fasting in February. I've been fasting in weeklong intervals with breaks in between. I'm down 55lbs in two months and feel great! No hunger, no irritability, no nothing except extra time and money. I get comments from customers at work, they think I have cancer or have some untreated illness from how fast the weight is coming off! Dr Ekberg, thank you for your knowledge, insight, and advice!

@maddkiller
@maddkiller 2 года назад
depending on your size. losing 55lbs in two months is not bad, i weighed 447lbs, im down to 380lbs now, lost that weight in about the same time, seen a dr before and after, i am in significantly better health, but if your say like 175 and lose that weight that quick, then that is really bad and very unhealthy. for fatty's like myself, it isn't bad, its when you drop too much when you are already at a healthy weight that can be very bad for you.

I just started this dietary journey in Jan 23’, weighing 300lbs, low carb/sugar, as low as possible. It gradually became natural to only eat two meals at the most per day and I find I naturally have longer fasting periods and the hunger pains are not as intense as being on a regular diet. Now, June 23’, I’m at 260lbs and losing.
