In my opinion, before a fast you need something high in nutrition and vitamins before the fast like liver and milk. But you need to drink water during the fast, also drinking water is a good way to decrease your hunger. Drinking water helps your body breaking down body fat into energy..

15:40 when I was addicted to carbs and frequent eating, I'd pass out if I had my lunch delayed and some stress on top of that. My doc told me to always carry some sugar in my pocket, just in case. So basically he was pushing me even harder towards diabetes. Luckily, I've found Dr. Ekberg and his videos and now I can fast as much as I like, I am in control, not the food.

@uzairahmed558 6 месяцев назад

How you gain control over it ? I mean i am in the same situation. I can’t fast at all. If i skip a meal, i feel the same as you mentioned above.

@markotrieste 6 месяцев назад

@@uzairahmed558 Check out Eckberg's other videos on the topic, but essentially: -take it easy: start with two weeks where, in two or three separate days, you delay breakfast and anticipate dinner, for one or two hours. Then other two weeks, same days, increase the delay/anticipation. At a certain point you'll see that hunger does not increase linearly but will regress, after some time. This is the moment where you can fully skip breakfast or dinner, depending on your preference. 16:8 is thus achieved, you can then extend that regimen to other days of the week -to make things easier, eat satiating foods, i.e. low on carbs, not too sweet, not ultra processed. -keep yourself busy during the last hours of fasting. Work, workout, do laundry, whatever, just keep your mind so busy it can't think of food. -mindfulness meditation can also help to dominate cravings.

Since I discovered keto and IF prior to doing my first proper prolonged fast I would have worried about this. However after doing a few longer fasts and my longest "2-day-fast one-meal then 3-day-fast" I've found my body can just push through a 3 day prolonged fast with no food craving, just water a vitamin-pill and some salt, maybe a black coffee, with no other prior preparation.

The other person is full blown type 2 diabetic. I am pushing higher fat and less carbs encouraging less bread and more avocados. It has been working for me and I have tried both omad and 3 day fasts.

I started listening to your IF videos in December of '22 after I found my A1C @ 7.9. As I learned and followed the recommendations my belt started becoming too large. That was @ 36". I kept listening and learning and making mistakesas my A1C dropped to 7.2. I had to then make a new hole in my belt then A1C of 7.0 then another hole to tighten the belt, then another hole and a Dr. Visit with an A1C of 6.0 w fasting glucose of only 39.😮 The call from my Doctor proclaiming a 25# weight loss and stop all Diabetes meds. Bought a new belt continuing to learn and OMAD. Then in 3 months, another visit, 148 weight, 5.0 A1C and a total weight loss of 60#. Now off BP and diabetic meds. Sporting that new belt in the last hole to the inside, 28" waist. I regularly follow OMAD or an 18/6 when a social function like Father's day necessitates such. Thank you, I keep watching as now lots is ingrained so I consider it practice. I did a couple of two day fast which really disturbed my adult daughter who works in Elderly care, cause @ 69 she thinks I am "one of them". When I shared my plan with her last month to do a 5 day fast she begged me to "don't do that Dad, Please?". I of course relented to her and promised not to go past 2 days. Being who I am I did the 2 day, then a 1 day followed by another 2 day. No breaks (of course) I finished that off feeling great, clear and "like a champion". Now I understand eating to live. This is going to be my lifestyle for as long as I Live. Thank you for throwing me the bouy!

@mettamorph4523 Год назад

the mind is powerful. if someone is convinced they cannot go without food, they'll never accept IF. and since high carb eating gives short term satiety, a craving to eat is just 3 hours away. add in the emotional need to eat something sugary or bread or fried, it's gonna be hard to get a high carb eater to change.

@Infiniti25 Год назад

Cinnamon can be good for regulating blood sugar, but I think it needs to be Ceylon Cinnamon not Cassia Cinnamon. might be worth trying to get her to consume some as part of a drink or in some food then seeing how long she can go without food. Also dizzy and nauseous are probably signs of insulin resistance and it is mimicing hypoglycemia...use a blood A1c monitor to see if her sugars actually dip or if this is stable while the dizziness and nauseousness occur. Does she consume any fat like butter or cream to give her body something else to work with other than sugar?

Over months you can gently go to 24 and 48 and 72 hour fasts like once every month in addition to intermittent fasting. The last can break stubborn insulin resistance and reduce visceral fat as long as no vigorous exercises are done during the fast. It does require blood glucose monitoring done often and proper medical and dietary advice before you undertake these. If you're fat adapted, prolonged fasting is pretty easy.

IES diagnosis: YOU ARE HUNGRY!! My wife isn't into fasting, even though she needs to lose weight as much as I do, but that's another story. Because I can't get her to participate, I chose to do the cold turkey method and simply stopped eating worthless carbs. I started off with 16 hour fasting (no food after 8:00 pm and didn't eat anything until 12:00 pm the following day). It worked fairly well, but I wanted to turbo charge my results so I migrated to 20 to 22 hour fasting. I've got a long way to go, but the weight is really coming off. I was even been able to take 4-5 days off fasting (summer vacation to the beach), but didn't go wild with carbs even though they were everywhere. I was able to get right back into the fasting routine and have been able to drop another 5 pounds since then. Once you get into the routine, and remember to stay hydrated, your body rapidly adapts to burning fat and the nagging hunger pangs go away fairly quickly.

I walk 3 miles or more daily. My only regret is that I didn't know about this remarkable diet earlier in life . At one time in my poor eating past, I had weighed nearly 200 pounds @ 25% body fat. I could have had alot more lean and vitality years if I had only understood what I needed to do. But at least I'll live out these last years feeling and looking far better . Thank you dearly Sten.

i don’t typically plan a fast, i go day to day on OMAD/IF and let my body decide when to fast 48-96 hours. now that i understood your video, i looked back at my food journal and the times i have no desire for food are after i had a few high fat meals over 10 or so days, it happens about 2x per month and i easily lose 3-4 lbs and feel amazing as usual! i want to lose about 30lbs more by october. i just stuck my toe into carnivore and lost 5 lbs in a week but kinda got nervous and been eating veggies again which i notice hurts my stomach a bit which i didn’t notice before. i am addicted now to having the control i have on my appetite and energy, it is absolutely amazing!! i’m probably gonna restart carnivore as soon as i eat the rest of my veggies😉 and get rid of this extra 30lbs once and for all my doctor is gonna freak at my next visit, i was 185lbs, in april, triglycerides are off the charts! i am down to 163 so far😅 ty xo ❤

Yes! I’m exactly the same way I really don’t plan my full day fasts either I’ve noticed for sum reason when I plan them it’s more difficult for me to complete it, but when I let my body lead it’s a breeze I’m on OMAD/IF as well and I’ve been eating every 22-24 hours on the dot for almost a week now Im gettn shredded in the process it’s very empowering

Last week I did a 36 hour fast for the first time. I actually found it to be much easier than I expected. It was interesting that at the end of the fast my blood glucose was slightly higher than at the 24 hour mark (105 vs 95.) People around me can't believe I could go that long. They said they'd "end up being taken to the hospital in an ambulance." They're probably correct - your body has to be trained for it.

@uffa00001 11 месяцев назад

That's very natural, you first tap your glucose reserves, those last for one day or more, than there is a proteolysis phases, in which your body looks for older cells and "eats" them, converting them to glucose, the real ketosis only starts around the 3rd or 4th day, and that's when you have a lower glucose in your blood. The real benefits or fasting appear during the second week, the deep detoxification, and the deep cleaning of damaged cells.

I’ve just done 2 months of Keto and IF. Your Chanel has been a great resource for me and my family. I’m down about 25 pounds so far! My dad is a severe type 2 diabetic for a couple decades now and he’s doing so well with Keto that he is barely taking his insulin anymore. It’s really difficult to figure out how to do Keto when you’ve been dependent on insulin for so long, plus the blood pressure medication. I told him to be careful because with Keto and the water pills his blood pressure might get too low. Hopefully his doctors will help him adjust to his new diet, but they love prescribing meds for everything, so that is difficult to navigate around.

In 2019, I went through a medically supervised 10-day water fast. After day 2, I had rather severe back pain, which made it hard to sit or sleep. No one seemed able to explain it, although the nurses and doctors said it was reasonably common. Looking back on this experience, I think the discomfort was likely a result of no electrolyte replacement! I was drinking water only - no one suggested or offered salt or any other minerals. Eventually, they gave me some mostly-flavorless vegetable broth, and the issue resolved within a couple more days. What do you think, Dr. Ekberg?

@catzlady.8189 Год назад

I did 36/12 for a few years and it was really good. From 85 kg to 77kg, but the even nicer effect was, that you don't need to think for 1 whole day about food preparation and stuff. And on the day you eat, you can eat anything (at least in my case it worked). But in the end it was socially to exhausting, to switch around the days when you meet friends. 16/8 is easier to manage, but not as effective as 36/12.

"Where do they get this?". Himalayan pink salt and Celtic Sea salt replenish electrolytes. I use Himalayan pink salt daily and take Celtic Sea salt with water during my longer fasts and when I sweat a lot. They are packed with nutrients and minerals.
