This is a bit extreme. At least for me. I can't speak for everyone, but I can speak for me. On that note I've completed a 21 day fast a few times. I never had hallucinations of my furniture turning into food. I still have all my teeth. I didn't turn into skin and bones in the process. I was hangry in the three days, but that passes. Finally breaking the fast takes a little while to get back to eating normal.
how much weight did you lose
I am curious because i really would like to try this sometime, i always like experimenting with diets and food and challenging myself but i have some questions.
Did you take electrolytes that don't break your fast?
Did you experience much muscle loss?
Did you lose much strength? This is what worries me the most because i work heavy physical labour and train 6 times a week.
Unhealthy.
@@Flamsterette unhealthy Iâm not sure people have fasted for a month for a long time and Iâve seen sources say it actually has benefits.
@@Axis32109 Interesting - I did not know that. 40 days is just Lent in the Christian tradition I was brought up in, with Easter being at the normal time.
I fasted for 11 days and other than noticing food commercials are CONSTANTLY on TV , I felt none of these terrible effectsâŠif anything I felt a sense of calm and focus after only 4 days!
Yup, based on how mr beast handled 2 weeks without eating this video seems to be overly dramatic
Yes I've fasted for 23 days before and practice shorter fasts somewhat regularly... They need to change the time-line because it's definitely not accurate.. I even read about a super obese guy who fasted for a year and he was fine. As long as you're taking a vitamin everyday you're good.
@@tyleredwards5246 during those 23 days did you do any hard physical labour?
@@Groza_Dallocort I worked my full time job during that time.. Also took vitamins though.
@@tyleredwards5246 very well because in my line of work especially during the winter when temperature drops to -30c without food it would be almost impossible to do my work
My friend did 17 days of water fasting and he was just fine. He just lost round 14kg and his teeth were aboslute ok after two weeks without food.
He was stop eating?
Really? just water? that doesnt seem right, when fasting for that long you would probably need to take vital nutrients, the video explains what happens with absolutely no food or nutrients.
The video Is almost all lie, very exaggerated
The thing is, an uncomfortable amount of the weight lost is probably muscle. so I would advise you to workout everyday of the fast to keep your muscles
Brine thats not true, your body burns fat before muscle and that starts to happens around 3 days with no food and water, still a small amount of muscle Is Lost yes, but mostly fat
I've water fasted multiple times, longest for for 3 weeks. I stop being hungry around day 3/4 and it was pretty easy after that. I felt zero of these horrible side effects, so I'm assuming these things only happen when you're actually starving and not living off of your fat reserves. I lost about 15 lbs, which was pretty cool.
I might try this
May I ask how old you were? Im currently 14 and wondering if any adverse effects may occur from this.
@@vivi..woah.. I was in my 20s and I also had permission from my doctor as I'm diabetic. I wouldn't do it that young as Your body is still growing and needs the nutrients. Your body stops growing around 23 or 24 iirc.

I almost died from anorexia a few months ago and Iâm in recovery now and Iâm so happy I chose to get my life back. This is pretty accurate and starvation is so scary. Going to sleep and not knowing if youâll wake up is absolutely terrifying. Iâm only 14 and no one should have to go through what I did

I have a personal question, how many days/weeks did it take for you to end up being anorexic?
I love how the body will fight to the absolute last second to stay alive. Its amazing.
Bro ikr
It's, not its.
@@Flamsterette who cares?
@@pixie4945 Everyone does.
Yes, exactly
I have tried fasting and I do think that symptoms showed here are exagerated.
They are. You can survive for months without food. You do feel sluggish after a few days but not within the first few days. The sluggishness comes from your body reserving energy. You do need to be careful though as overworking yourself without food would be bad for you as there is no energy source to help you.
Fr! They really said you start hallucinating about food after only 24 hrs
@@Tostilocos. that's actually true tho..I start hallucinating about tacos
I often go 2-4 days without eating, I've never had any of these problems....at worse I may feel a little dizzy.
A crucial factor is body type. The video would be very accurate for someone who's naturally skinny (like me) or has a high resting metabolic rate. For someone who's a lot fatter or muscly, the onset of these symptoms would be delayed by weeks
I'm 2.5 years into recovery from anorexia and this sounds like what I was like at my worst. In terms of lasting damage I've gotten off lightly but I had friends who sadly lost their fight. My immune system is iffy, my period is unpredictable and I have arthritis in my back - but I'm alive and back to a healthy weight đ€ hugs to all of you on your (or a loved one's) recovery journey

Fun fact: the fatter you are the longer you can survive without food.

Underrated comment

Yeah he isn't lying, our body eats the fat when we don't eat, so if we are fatter and don't eat we will last longer
I've done week long water fasts where you only consume water for a week several times and besides being a little hungry sometimes, I pretty much felt the same. No hallucinations or sickness
I feel like this video is made with people who aren't overweight in mind. I'm about 100 lbs overweight and haven't eaten in 4 days. I feel fine. I'm not saying this stuff wouldn't eventually happen. But I haven't had any of this happen to me.
bruh 100 lbs istoo low unless you're like 4"11 and are 11 year old. and if you are young, I don't think its healthy to fast for so long or infact fast at all
@@swatzulalala 100 lbs overweight not just 100 lbs
I'm not overweight. I'm around 110 lbs. I fast on a regular basis. Your metabolism doesn't really slow and "starvation mode" doesn't exist. What you're describing dehydration.
Iâm like 30 pounds overweight and Iâm fine
they're trying to downplay fasting. they are saying the complete opposite of what happens when you don't eat for so long
Iâll speak for myself. I didnât eat for 2 weeks and I lost 20 lbs it was literally due to my stress and depression.
@@Camachojennyfer Iâm sorry you went through that. I pray youâre doing better nowđ€
@@halimayusuf8828 thank you Iâm in a much better place now đ«¶đ»
u didn't lose that much weight that's BS
@@movieandshowclipsssyes I did. I went from 135 to 115. According to math thatâs 20 lbs I lost. No need to hate because you probably canât lose that much.
2 weeks is that possible?
Unless your already skin and bones this won't happen in the timespan they claim. Take vitamins, water and salt.
The longest I havenât eaten for was four days. The biggest effect I noticed was my mood. I was extremely irritable. I felt weak but I was still able to do everything I could while eating. For me, it was unhealthy. I was addicted to starving myself. I felt so good when I looked at other people eating and knowing that I was âstrongerâ. I had an eating disorder. Even though the longest I hadnât eaten for four straight days only once, it was starving myself and then binging long before and long after that. I never saw my bed turn into a burger though. One weird thing was that once, I was brushing my teeth and reallyyyyyy wanted to eat it. It tasted so good in that moment. It was really weird.
You didnât eat for four days but you are addicted to starving
Yeah I didn't eat for 4 days aswell and I constantly had dreams of food
Mine was also 4 days. I did it because of an emotional crisis.
I have done water fasting multiple times and I never had these exaggerated symptoms. If anything I lost a heck lot of body fat in less than a month and my cravings and hunger for carbs and sugar decreases notably to the point that I no longer desire to eat unhealthy food.
This is actally starving not fasting
@@Mohanzoyare Typical reply coming from an uninformed folk. Given how much information you can find on the web about fasting, this behaviour is inexcusable.
Iâm Not gonna waste time arguing stuff on the internet.đ
@@ChrisPTY507exactly, internet educated, not a professional. The internet is full of people wanting to get âskinnyâ in unhealthy ways, so your claim is ridiculous
How did you ease yourself back into eating after your fast? I want to try water fasting, but I also want to be safe about it as well.
@@saturnbabiee0286 Start by doing intermittent fasting. If you havenât fasted before, it would be very abrupt to the body to go from eating as you usually do to stop eating for a few days out of the blue because youâd have a lot of cravings because your body is not yet used to fasting.
If I were you I would gradually increase my fasting time from intermittent fasting 16:8, after 2 weeks do OMAD 23:1 for other 2 weeks and then do water fasting for 2 or 3 days.
After your body is really used to fasting you can even extend your water fasting for 1 week and so on. Iâve personally extended it just for 3 days and I sometimes do alternate day fasting, meaning that I spend 48 hours without eating, and either way you lost heck ton of weight in short time.
We have been practicing fasting from long time.. Currently I'm on 7th day of water fasting and I'll continue to fast till 21 day's.. there's no symptoms of weakness or tiredness yet
We don't fast completely for a month, we eat before sunrise then break once the sun goes down
@@rue.eterna5094 ohh so it can be considered as something same as intermittent fasting. That's healthy way of fasting and will boost the digestive system
Did u loosing weight?
@@carolinegween3485 yes I lost 3 kg in 8 day's and today's my 9th day of fasting âš
@@carolinegween3485 to be honest my height is 5 feet 2 inches and weight is 58 kg so there's not too much fat to lose otherwise I would have lost more than that
I did 3 day fasting every week for a month and lost 30 pounds. I do Intermediate fasting and it helps maintain my weight
did you take inbody?
the one messure your fat% and muscles%
because if you don't you may lost muscles more than fat. I did similer thing for two weeks and I lost 2 kg. I was happy. I can see less fat in me im the mirror
but when I checked the results with Inbody I found I lost 2kg but only 0.5kg was fat.
my diet was one meal per day + miltivitanin
As a person that water fasted for 32 days straight. Past day 3 most of this is seriously dramatized. After day 5 I felt at my best and I had amazing energy until I finished the fast.
Amen. The first couple days are the hardest. If you're past day 3, you're golden. I did a full fast while spending a week studying about 14 hours a day for a very important and difficult certification that I needed to progress in my career. I was laser focused and sharp the entire time. Usually I'm somewhat easily distracted and get sleepy if studying for certs while eating normally.
Any highschool student van explain ie be witness against your case. Cells have needs and wants, it is an engine, Kraftstoff goes in, CO2 and water (and other ehm stuff ) leaves. What is* true, is the Kraftstoff is not so critical, specific, as science dietist or wallmart tells us. In bad times (example) in Africa goats are given cardboard, boxes, packaging materials, that keeps the digestieve systeem active / functioning and does contain a little nutricious value. You can long live off rice alone, although the setup wasn t scientific.. we know this ;)
in the 32 days, was it an intermitted fast where you actually ate at a certain time everyday? I grew up in an Apostolic church, when they say fast it means absolutely no food for the whole time you're fasting. so I get confused in these comment sections.
@@jenniferwilliams8863 I consumed nothing for 32 days besides water. No breaks in between, no juice, no water enhancers, nothing but just water for 32 days.

I skipped a meal once.
Thatâs enough for me lol
Me fasting during the month of ramadan: đ
i am a survivor of arfid (avoidant restrictive food intake disorder) its an eating disorder that is trauma and autism related, i have had the disorder for about 6 years, and in the peaks of the disorder i would go months without eating anything solid because i never felt hunger at all during the past 6 years, what kept me alive during all those years without feeling hunger and going months without eating was the fact that i slept a lot and i still got the feeling of thirst, my thirst is what kept me alive as i would be 100% reliant on chai teas (which contained lots of creams and sigar) and milk and occasionally i would drink juice, it took 5 years for my weight to drop down to 100 lbs, and im 5â8, before the eating disorder i was 126 which was the most iâve ever weighed in my life. for about 2-3 years i we couldnât figure out what was going on and why i wouldnât eat, even doctors were confused and kept giving me treatments for heartburn or extra acid, it wasnât until i talked to someone online who happened to have arfid and told me about it, i then looked it up and i was like âi think i finally found whatâs going onâ it took an additional 2-3 years after that before i finally started to feel hunger pains for the first time in 6 years. it was weird because as soon as i stopped taking my medications used for depression i started to feel hunger and started to eat again.
How do you find out if you got this or not?
Depression medications can mess with appetite yeah. Not something I'd take lightly.
I like that you included the recovery process.
Your analysis of what a timeline of ketosis looks like is entirely wrong for most individuals. Itâs like you received all of your information from 1 single source without reading anything else. This video proved to me that youâve never gone a single day without eating.

I've dropped about 40 to 50 pounds. Im now 141 lbs. I went from gorging myself all the time to hardly eating. I dont really feel many of the side effects listed, but I'm sure that other people have.
Thatâs more only if you were already a thin person, to begin with, if your skinny fasting isnât a good idea at all if you have fat on you. You should be good for however you fast etc I saw an article about an extremely overweight guy who was able to fast for a year or something like that
@@Sikkc0 He talked about that at the end of the video
You forgot to mention 1 part about the digestion process. While youâre chewing your food and the saliva is breaking it down, your tongue will form food into a ball-like mass so it can be swallowed. I always found that part cool, because we donât realize it happens.
Mad respect to the people who fast during Ramadan. That can't be easy
We eat fully in the morning
@@boywitharms4176 And usually in the evening. Ramadan fasting is pretty much the same as shifting the time of two meals and skipping one meal each day for thirty days. The truth is, HUGE percentages of people skip one meal a day as their normal daily routine, anyway.
@@aaronhalloway7237 food is ok but a day without water is difficult
I used to do it, it's not that hard. Here in the UK, it never tops 19 hours in summertime, and can be just 7-8 hours in winter, as it's based on the sun being up.
month of ramadan is the month when the prophet of God received the first words of God, which calls surat "al alaq"
Almost died 9 months ago from anorexia - it's scary how accurate this is

I'm glad you're doing better, but unfortunately this video just doesn't apply to most of the population. If you're malnourished (from anorexia, bulimia, famine, etc) a pregnant woman, or a growing child, you should not fast. A normal adult can go weeks without eating with no side-effects other than losing a bit of fat from storage.
I'd love to see an episode about weird phobias like arachniphobia. Why is it so common to be scared of spiders?

@@stevenmiller3934 what?
@@stevenmiller3934
No, just yo momma.
Well, in some countries arachnids are both large and extremely dangerous. For example, in much of the Middle East there is a rather large quantity of people who are deathly afraid of arachnids. So much so that the CIA actually utilized both scorpions and tarantulas to psychologically torture suspected terrorists for information. Itâs been known for generations that arachnophobia is prevalent in that region. Thereâs significantly more to it then just that though, and there are far more groups that suffer from arachnophobia. But thereâs a lot more research out there than I can recall. Very fascinating subject
There is no logic in phobias.

â @@moxiemaxie3543probably why I said Iâm not fasting then, lol
takes a lot more than 5 days for your body to start breaking down protein unless youâre already very underweight, and after you enter ketosis the side effects really arenât that bad. the transition from glucose to ketones is the worst part but after day 3 itâs p ok. totally right about your brain doing weird things though, I was OBSESSED with watching food shorts đ brain fog can be p bad too
Iâve went one week without food and it wasnât that bad..BE CAREFUL OF REFEED SYNDROME THO!!

Dafuq is refeed syndrome
@@mao4397 refeeding syndrome is when you reintroduce food to your digestive system after not eating food for a fat while. it can be dangerous because your body would have gotten used to operating without food and your body might reject the food so you need to reintroduce food slowly, it's very lethal and you must be aware of it :P
I used to be anorexic and ended up in hospital because of it at an alarmingly low weight. Hearing these things ring very familiar. The mind is so delusional at that stage that it is difficult to recognize how bad things are, but those around know and suffer. That is the traumatizing part.
Just this year I did a 6 day fastening, just water, nothing else. First two days I had cravings for fatty food, at day three it was fine and easy. I didn't had any side effects or cravings to eat my couch

As a former anorexic (who was already pretty thin when I started), I can say this is fairly accurate to my experience. Especially the falling asleep and being pretty sure you were going to die.

I fasted for 50 days earlier this year and lost 61lbs. I felt stable energy throughout, amazing mental focus and clarity, and had blood work done on day 41 showing no deficiencies in vitamins or minerals. I did supplement electrolytes and took a daily multivitamin, but I went from 258 lbs to 197 lbs in those 50 days and greatly improved my health. While it definitely requires enough body fat to sustain a long term fast, your body does not break down significant muscle mass while fasting. I will say that cycling shorter fasts is probably more sustainable for significant weight loss because of less need to refeed carefully and less rebound weight gain, but prolonged fasting has many significant health benefits and is far from what this fear mongering propaganda video would have you believe.
Do you have more details about what you ate and what your overall plan was like? I'm currently 232 and I would like to get back down to 190 within 50 days if it's possible
@@zayhendrix2617 I ate nothing at all, I just supplemented sodium/potassium through lo-salt (about 40% RDA potassium per day), and I took a daily multivitamin. I did drink some 0 calorie Gatorade Zero and Propel fitness water, but no food for 50 full days. I then eased back into eating with bone broth, light vegetables, and started with eggs for protein on the second day. It was a daily challenge, but definitely not terrible. It was just a test of willpower and I felt pretty good throughout.
Congratulations and yes, I agree.
This sounds like a mixture of something posted on My ProAna and an organic crunchy Facebook mom who thinks GMOs give you cancer. Get a grip.
I fast for 2 weeks a few times a year. I feel great. This video is utter nonsense.
As a struggling anorexic about a couple months or so ago I would've said this video is nonsense. I've gone weeks on just water and soymilk, and been able to fully function, running and jumping, working and everything with a mood better than it'd ever been.
But right now I've lost almost 20 pounds in two weeks, while having already been slender. Which had never happened before. After a certain point it isn't that your body becomes just fine as much as your mind gets very good at convincing you that you're A-OK up until a certain point in order to keep you from panicking or seeking hope in a hopeless situation, which would compromise survival. It's like how people with terrible injuries like losing arms or being impaled can just seemingly shrug them off due to all the adrenaline in their body. Or how people going through trauma can dissociate or "zone out", mentally leaving so they don't know or feel what's happening to their bodies. I felt light, happy, elated and in a wonderful mood. Up until I'd noticed that my joints were constantly "popping" and everything hurt more for reasons I couldn't understand. Then the reality came crashing in and suddenly I was all but bedridden. Feeling cold is also spot-on as are the mood swings till the dissociation hits. Starving and fasting can bring the most euphoric highs and pleasantness. That's why it's so dangerous too, because it then becomes addictive for many. But right now, I think I feel a lot better now that I'm eating again.
I ainât reading allat đ space out your paragraphs bozo they teach you that in elementary
that's not very nice to say
I fasted for 2 weeks once. It was 2 terrible weeks of pain, hunger, and fatigue. Cold. I had to be sent to a hospital over this. But I do agree that this is a bit extreme. Around day 4 I stopped feeling completely hungry and full of energy. The symptoms you were describing began around week 2 of my fast, although the first few days havenât been all that easy. But then again, everyone is different. I was low weight when I started this in the first place
I'm already 1 week and 3 days fasting. And I'm good plus I'm already skinny and my goal is about losing the fat in my face

So how, then, is your body already starting to break itself down after 3 days?
your body doesn't break itself until much later, this is a really fast explanation. after 5 days will not cause your body or brain any harm as long as you are healthy and drink LOTS and LOTS of water.

@@markmartin5364 Iâm reasonably sure this is a false statement. A year? Not a chance.
You can easily survive a month with no food even more. Your body will cleanse, you'll feel great, energetic etc. Many chronic issues will resolve. It is the secret doctors don't want you to know about.
Currently 24 hours into a water fast and I am waiting on my cell phone to resemble a poptart.
I did fast one day a week for years. Best i ever felt in my life! I did drink fluids. Or even like a protein drink or veg juice. If i got really hungry. Look into cleanning yourself out to.
Yeah, I went 67 days without eating. The most painful thing about starvation is when u start throwing up stomach acid, ur chest n stomach feels like it's on fire. Not 2 mention a migraine like you've never felt b4.
I did a 7 day water fast, and I was not hallucinating on day two... nor did I hallucinate at all. Also, I didn't look, nor feel like I was dying on day 3.
I went through a bought of depression and didn't eat a bite of food in over a month. I got to the point to where I couldn't get off my couch. My sister took me to the emergency room. I hadn't had a BM for 2 weeks and was barely urinating and when I did it was extremely dark. Once at the emergency room I found out I had lost 22 pounds and I was extremely dehydrated! I had to be hospitalized for over 24 hours. They had to give me something to drink to coat my stomach because my stomach acid was completely out of whack. I was put on fluids and glucose. It took me over a month to eat a full meal. I had to start with mashed potatoes at a half of a cup at a time. I will never do that again.
This makes me realize how important eating is.
Lol no. This video is made by insane people. You can go a month without eating if you prepare yourself and have no bad side effects. Fasting is very good for the body.
@@motiemo lol I cant even last a day
Most of this isnt even real
I've had some brain damage as a really young kid so my brain doesn't exactly tell me I need food (I don't get hungry). I've gone days on only coffee & water (forgetting to eat, lol). I also have to manually blink or my eyes will dry out (It blew my mind to learn other people do that automatically) & I usually only operate on about 5-ish hours of sleep. Brain damage can muster some really odd characteristics!
excuse you. Now I have to think about blinking my eyes.. and Breathing.
That sounds exhausting to manually blink. But then I guess it just feels normal to you.

About 10 years ago I had an accident had multiple spinal fractures and multiple ruptured disks, I could barely walk From the pain and was bed bound, I couldnât eat or sleep and because of the pain I was in a constant adrenaline rush, Iâd go 6 days without food then have a couple slices of toast and wouldnât eat for another 6-7 days within a couple months Iâd lost 3 stone in weight and lost alot of muscle in my left leg because I couldnât put any weight on it, I never felt hungry because of all the painkillers I was on and still am, I still never feel hungry and itâs easy to forget to eat for a couple days, I set reminders now and force feed myself but still a lot better than I was
Is three stone a lot? Sorry, dumb American here.

You never feel hungry? I know a lot of people (including myself) who wish for that ability

Mr Beast needs some explaining to do on how he still functioned perfectly
Yeah. One of these 2 people are deceiving us
It's called scripted entertainment. Even if his journey was fake, the final message is what's important
as I understand it, he drank juices and smoothies. That helps.
This video is wildly exaggerating, you don't hallucinate after not eating for 24 hours that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. I'm currently on my 5th day of a water-only fast and other than having lower energy than normal, I'm fine.
@@BadgerxSpank The video might be true if you start this at an extremely low body fat percentage.
Anyone else here because you canât afford food anymore?

I used to go a couple days without eating whenever I started eating too much and gaining weight. I would just choose not to eat. I still took my vitamins, drank plenty of water and occasional Gatorade.
Would be a little more lethargic but after that couple of days would drop 5-10 pounds and had a lower appetite. Does lower your metabolism though during the fasting so when you start to eat again if you go straight to fatty foods you'll bloat up pretty quickly. Also terrible for your muscles because those start to get broken down after the first day when your body goes into starvation mode
Your body usually only breaks down muscles after fat is depleted as far as possible. Even on an average person this should take a 1.5-3 weeks.
@@danielcurtis1434 muscle will start to atrophy at that time you specified of inactivity or after you stop working out, not the same as when you fast or starve
If you fast and stay active your metabolism actually increases and muscle start to break down after about 3 days. Though very gradually and slowly. Also depending on your body fat.
binge eating disorder
This is why during the recovery process, doctors and nurses will give you food with low protein and sugar intake so that the body becomes used to gaining glucose and energy in its stores again.
Finally, an episode that's not about war or military. That was getting tiresome. More eclectic contend. More apocalypse survival episodes please
Yeah l like there type of videos
âFinally something not about war⊠More apocalypse episodes please!â
Lol or the paranormal or alien or cryptic videos, I miss those!
Basically a war
@@Nolensudduth uh ok
The longest Iâve ever gone recently without food and even water was about 3 days without water 5 without food.
I feel this heavily during the "rough" parts of my life. Truly thought I was gonna die within the next week.
As a muslim... it is compulsory for me to fast the 30 days of ramadan. I feel like a completely new person after everytime I fast the 30 days.
Next Ramadan in 5 or 6 months đł
u guys get to eat tho like every morning before sunrise and after sunset âŠ. its a totally different thing from starving
@@jaehyunluvr thatâs why itâs called fasting not starving
As a recovering anorexic of 5+ years, I think this is what I needed to find to motivate me to get help. Thank you
The longest I didnât eat was 72 hours due to stomach flu. Easily lost 3kg in that span of time. Was always nauseous and pooping wet stuff. Felt weak too. But grateful now, back to normal and more mindful of food intake.
You just lost water, not fat or muscle.
i have stomach flu for 4 weeks, lost 10kg
have had
Normally, infographics is great show. But thereâs a ton of misinformation in this video which is unfortunate.
Which misinformation?
@@marklawrence5716 way to extreme. As someone who has done multiple Fasts at or just over a week this is completely exaggerated.
I've fasted for four weeks before while taking vitamin and mineral supplements, after the first day I wasn't hungry again until about 5 days later, but even that went away, I was just living my regular life, I would have sugar free gum, black coffee, and water. Eventually I did feel like was looking less muscular in the mirror so I resumed eating by drinking soups and broths. I suffered no health defects and enjoyed being able to see my abs for the first time since bootcamp. Four weeks of fasting brought me down from about 18% bodyfat to 6%, and I was none the worse off, I filled up quickly and recovered my lost muscle mass. Although it was great for about two months I eventually gained back the fat I lost, so if you wanna quick motivation boost(or wanna take pics) fastings great IMO, but not for long term maintenance or progress.
I would say fasting is more of a mental strength test not for losing weight.
@@EmilyDRM13 might be that way for most people but idk I might have a hunger hormone issue or a slow metabolism, never get too hungry, really have to pay attention to getting the calories in
@@SaifAli-hi2jv well I can't fast my hunger makes me really sick so if i "fast" I have to eat small amounts(around 500cals) to avoid being really sick. "sick" i mean nausea and other stuff due to my medicines I have to take.
I don't have a lot of willpower either so that makes it MUCH harder
@@EmilyDRM13 That makes sense I used to take a lot of medicine and supplements when I fasted but realized that most medications need to be taken with food for that exact reason
@@EmilyDRM13 I do a 5 day fast every 3 months. Just so my body can concentrate on burning the fat I have. LOL
I'm glad to see all the comments defending healthy fasting. I'm literally watching this at almost 72 hour fasted and feel fine. If you are healthy,and have extra fat, you can fast for a week or even longer. I have done it many times and it's helped me lose 100 lbs and improve so many health markers
I like how the video gives all the information I need and it's accurate , I haven't eaten for 26 hours đ
I said I would stop fasting and try to eat At least one meal a day but I fasted 2 days out of four this week⊠I hate how addictive fasting isđ
This scenario is definitely the worst case possible. I've gone around a week fasting, and while it was pretty miserable at points, it wasn't much like this. If you're mindful and continue drinking electrolytes, it's not too difficult. I used to love fasting; you just have to do it with awareness.
Well this is without electrolytes and vitamins dear, so do this again without that and see how false this video is.
A small group of people and I out there are born with a genetic condition called Vasovagal Syncope (which can later develop to Anoxic Seizures) people call it a heart condition but really itâs a Central nervous system disorder our vagus nerve forgets to tell our hearts to do its job so our blood pressure and heart rate plummet and we experience syncope (faint) basically the first few days of this can be sped up immensely
i also have vasovagal syncope. it effects me most when i get injured, or get needles.
You too?
What's your trigger? Mine is triggered by too hot food.
Heat, hunger, dehydration and exhaustion. sight of blood/injury (hemophobia) this is acquired through past experiences.
TIP: Good diet and a decent exercise routine will prevent syncope/seizures from being triggered.
a needle poke almost kills me sometimes =( I'm not scared, it just happens and my heart rate slows to like 20 bpm and i can't see anymore !
@@colby8059 ask if you can lie down and raise your knees because of your condition it may help to keep you conscious.
3:30 Have you ever done a fast? This is beyond ridiculous...
It truly is a miracle how Eugenia Cooney hasnât passed away yetâŠ
I went four days without eating before. It really wasn't that bad.
I did 13 days water fasting and i felt awesome.I would have lasted 2 more weeks but my mom cooked all my favourite foods,cause she was worried for my health, so i choose to quit.
For all of y'all who have not had any of these bad side effects but have done this maybe longer. I'm pretty sure to experience any of these bad side effects you have to be quite skinny when you start because of course if you have fat your body is going to start digesting that and if you are skinny your body doesn't really have any fat to digest so of course you will feel worse cuz your body is now basically looking at itself like hamburgers and hot dogs.
After seeing all the comments about fasting, Iâm considering fasting for a week any tips Or advice?
Don't
I did this back in 2017 (I was 17 years old) I consumed nothing but water for 30 days straight it was painful and dangerous but worth it i guess from 218 down to 168 lbs in just a monthđ
I use to think I should stop eating for maybe like 3 days so I could lose weight and I was mad at myself when I ate but now I realize how important eating isss
Same. I remember during covid times my usage of social media was increased so I saw lots of models, perfect figure actresses with beautiful body on Instagram and it made me feel very bad about my body so I ate very less for 1-2 weeks and I literally was about to die if I continued doing this thing for another week because I could literally feel myself getting weaker and weaker day by day.
I made up my mind that looks are everything so I HAVE to fit in these body standards. I was pretty young at that time and didn't have any knowledge about healthy dieting so I just pushed myself day by day. My immune system got weak and I was diagnosed with an illness so that experience was an eye opener and I would never do something like that every again in my life. Food is essential for human body and after seeing this video I can't believe I put myself to that much of risk.
this episode was blown way out of proportion. none of this is really that dramatic at all. i do 3 day fasts every week when i'm not doing 5 day fasts. nothing bad has happened yet, i'm absolutely not dying, it's really good for weight loss if you don't binge eat during non-fasting days.
"How much exaggeration we need to put in this video?"
"yes"
Coffee with sugar= 1 week. All of my money is used to pay costly bills and i live alone. I feel emotionally detached and cold.
Sending blessings to you. đ
I do 30 day fasts 2x a year and none of these things happen to me. I always feel energetic and happy because Iâm loosing weight. Very exasperated
In 2016 I couldn't eat anything for 7 days due to a medical issue
All I was drinking were sugary drinks like soda, and juice, my mental state was unaffected, but I lost a lot of weight
this is such good background noiseđ«¶
Love these series
I do 3 day fasts quite often and suffer not a single one of the problems described in this video.
I think its important to clear the fact that...this doesn't really happen so quickly
You take around 3 days to finish the glucose supply in your body, after 3 days you start using muscle instead of body fat to make energy.
After 2-3 weeks is when your organs start decreasing in size, but it doesn't happen so rapidly.
You don't usually feel tired all the time, in fact you may feel more energized.
But again, all this depends on the amount of body fat you have.
If you're very very skinny, what is said in the video might happen to you.
If you're overweight, you'll have enough glucose to last you a while
There was once a case where a severely overweight guy went on a fast for 382 days, under the supervision of doctors, and he was given enough multivitamins
He dropped from 465lbs to 180lbs by the end of 382 days
So...everyone's body is different and everyone's body response will be different as well
Had a math teacher who fasted for 31 days and she felt better than ever (and taught better).
Hmmm... I wish to provide some insight about ketones. These molecules or particles, we can call them as ever you wish. The science community from valid experts still argue about the sources of ketone bodies (I mean to referring to the structure of source).
Biological or chemical, still been under research by valid experts.
On my side I started to do periodic fasting, not that long and so insanely as portraited in the video. The idea as like described in the video for fun now. But to not lose the practical sense of what am I talking about.
The ketone bodies work through themselves with side-processes, which means that HGH (Human Growth Hormone) also increase in number by 7x times. If you also combine your periodic fasting with moderate rate of exercise... Like walk a bit more or do HIIT. You can introduce a muscle-preservation measure and that is the desired result caused by the 20-40x times increased rate of HGH in your immune system, which is only uses your stored fat for energy usage. But that is can be repeated after a certain period of time. Like your body also does some adjustments as the glucose turn down nearly zero in your body (absolute zero is impossible). Some good note: Like self-eating: Recycle or throws-out garbage proteins and cells.
The body also starts to use lesser amount of protein particles, to rebuild or deconstruct your muscle tissue. It means the next in English: Your body starts to switch off and on certain hormone balancing measures, depending on sources of fuel or quality of activities. Like your insulin resistance very slowly, but gradually turn more sensitive. It means usually turn much less reactive and remains in the healthy range, when your cells start to get more signals and require carbs/sugar as fuel.
Agreed. Intermittent fasting can be a great process. This alarmist video is a bit over the top. Similar to the over hype of breakfast.
Yes. I want to know if for example, there is something wrong with the liver, can it still produce Ketones?
@@charliejoson9145 my reference is referred to healthy liver. A damaged liver can heal it-self, but i think the studies refer to healthy and active individuals. In sedentary life-style the things can be different.
I loooooove The Infographics Show!!!!!
I once didn't eat for 5 days because I just wasn't hungry. I hate the feeling of food in my stomach
This a fine example of sensationalism.
Can you make a video on Binge-eating disorder and how to fix it?
It's caused by dieting/starvation. The only way to fix it is with time and food.
I mean thereâs me who didnât eat a single thing for 2 and a half months and then barely wanted to eat but ate small portions for another 3 months. I felt fine during those two months and felt just the same after I started eating normal adult portions again.
I did a water fast for 7 days on the third day i wasnt hungry. Only side affects were hungry for a couple days and headaches not bad ones though. After three days i felt great wasnt hungry the rest of the time.
they dont want us to no how powerful fasting is
im muslim so i fast for ramadan, but since i do eat at evening i dont get sick and starve.
but i did have fatiuge and stomach aches, and i was very hangry and grumpy! and i lost weight and gained weight because i'd eat sooo much at night but it'd all go down as i didnt eat in the morning!
but this process made me more calmer and happier
Got a kick out of them using hangry.
