My dad, ate light breakfast in the morning, then ate a full meal at 1 or 2 pm. Then he drank 3 liters of warm water daily. He lived a healthy life and lived up to 102 yrs. he was strong like an ox.
That means he ate 2 meals a day.????
It depends on person to person how they are living also
@@akbmusix Yes, broke his fast *breakfast* with a light meal then 4-5 hrs later ate a full meal, then fast the rest of the time. Probably the most optimal way to eat ever as I think OMAD is just too many calories at once despite the benefits of 20-24 hour fasting, 16-20 is definitely enough.
does drinking WARM water do something different ? lol
@@anilbalk3493 helps with digesting for easy 💩.
'Every cell in your body is working hard to create health except you'... That hit hard!
I felt that too!!
That hits me tho
this man woke up and chose to spit facts
Facts
It's because you body is working hard to digest and the energy/blood is in the stomach and not available to brain.
When I decided to start eating the right food, I began to notice how much society sells us the food that we shouldn't be eating.
Yeah, this is true. GMO foods
Not just Gmo but also food full of additive, sugar.
So so true.....
that is so true. nowadays going to a supermarket is more dangerous than goin at night in some abandoned third world country city area
should i skip breakfast or dinner
I have completed 45 days of 18 hour fast, lost 4 inch tummy and 5 kg weight. Amazing.
Do you eat whatever you want in those 6 hrs? Or do you follow to eat something healthier?
Yes in 6 hours after all your favorite things u just end up saving 500 to 800 calories every day
Fasting is an incredibly powerful health hack that can literally save your life!
KenDBerryMD nice to see you here doctor Berry!! 👋😃
You're here too 😂
But how to do fasting ?
@@jeewatramtrivedi9499 don't eat lol
Calories Restriction is the critical Key to Health.
But .Even then you need Fasting, from Time to time.
Fasting Time, Your Cellular Machinery go Standstill., Therefore, Fasting Time is not counted in your Age
(You Live Much Longer, ant that too Disease-Free!)
Been Intermittent fasting for 7 weeks. Clothes fitting much better. Able to control cravings. Still have energy to hit the gym. Actually sleeping better. A little bit sharper at work. I'm not going back.
I am thinking of starting it. Should I gove it a try? Any side effects? My plan is to eat breakfast at 8am lunch at 12pm dinner at 6
@@hrishikesh07m YES! Doesn't hurt trying new things. I don't know what your regular eating Schedule is but commonly a lot of people feel hungry the first 1-2 weeks. remember that everything is usually always mental. Drink lots of water of course and don't confuse emotional hungry with REAL hunger.
@@hrishikesh07m But first you have to learn to eat healthy. IF can't do harm if we keep eating things that come with labels. Eat real food, as closer as nature made it.
How you doin now bro. I'm interested!
i have been intermittent fasting foe 1 year now i eat one meal a day at 5pm nothing till the next day at 5. Monday through Saturday. i started out at 178lbs im down to 132lb!! i feel incredible my skin is glowing and my energy level is out of this world best decision i have ever made!! never go back
I need my 8 hours of sleep and 2 meals a day. I don't eat between meals but I do drink wine daily
I'm 74 next week and have no major health issues...🙂🙋♀️🇬🇧
May I ask What type of wine?
“Empty stomach and hunger are two different things” -that is SO inspirational, Sadghuru, I think more people DEFINITELY need to realize that message!!!
What he ment is that when your blood glucose drops about 2-4 hours after meal, you are getting hunger to raise it up again (your hormone Ghrelin goes up because of that).
Measure your blood glucose with blood monitor and you will see that on your very eyes. I tried that and its perfectly correct.
I can think for myself rather than following this c__t
💯💯💯 Before I break my fast around noon, sometimes my stomach feels empty. I’m not hangry, feeling like I need to eat RIGHT NOW. It’s sometimes annoying, but I drink water and the feeling goes away.
Once I have broken my fast, I sometimes feel hungry throughout my 8 hour eating window. And when I’m hungry, I eat something. I generally aim to eat a good balance of protein/carbs/fat, but I don’t count calories or macros. Then after dinner, I’m done eating.
After decades of yo yo dieting, I lost 100 lbs and it truly feels effortless. I feel like I learned some kind of magic trick! But I think it’s how my body works best. So grateful to have discovered it!
“Every cell in your body is designed to create health. They’re all working hard to create health... except you.”
Woah... reality check!
guru mic dropped hard
How about your tumor cell?
They don't need to work hard, they work in ease. Body is not struggling, nature is always at ease, only you are struggling.

Fasting is one of the most powerful things you can do to improve your health!
its most powerful, it has no competition.
Semen retention is also a very powerful tool.

@@rudy8409 omo hahahah.
@@palmiccz ...many things are equally powerful. Such as eating, sleeping, drinking water and pooping. Breathing is most powerful.
Breakfast is the first meal you take when you Break your Fast....but nobody said it had to be in the morning. 😜 😀 😂
My breakfast is around 3pm.
Yep I break my fast anywhere from 3-7pm. Depends on what I'm doing. Getting that autophagy and mTor😘
Exploring my path with this topic I discovered breakfast is the healthiest meal you can eat. Everyone's body is different. I saw when fasting meditate on your purpose , it helps me for some reason I fasted without reminding my self the purpose & I struggled big time. Meditation & fasting go hand & hand very well. The mind is powerful & uses 30% of calorie intake. Program the mind to deal with the unconfortablness of your goal.
Well said
Your cells consume the first things you eat like crazy after fasting it’s so important to choose better ones
Past 3 months I've been fasting for 16 hrs a day. I was 84 Kgs at that time. Now I'm 78. I do a little bit of lifting and some calisthenics but I can say I've never been this healthy. Just want to put this information out there. It works.
do u eat in between ur meals?
Can u drink water during intermittent fasting
@@mariettacarvalho9013 yes u can.... So during fasting window you are allowed to have plain water, green tea or black tea without honey and sugar...
Drinking only water is more beneficial during fasting window... green or black tea is optional..better to avoid...
@Bwahaha hahaha drinking only water during fasting window is allowed..
I eat two meals a day and am 50 but look like 40😊 intermittent fasting changed my life.
I do intermittent fasting and eat one meal around 4-4.30 pm. I feel super active, super energetic n Joyful. I feel so much energy n I run for 30-35 mints
@@amitakakkar4899 how old you are?
Im 64 and look 54. I sometimes eat one meal every other day. But mostly 2 sittings a day. I can't say meals coz usually not what someonelse would call a meal 😁
You can eat 4 to 6 meals a day and still can look young, it all depends on the quality of food and quantity consumed.
@@armaankishoreswain3144 of course you can.
When i eat i get tired and lazy. It doesn't give me energy, it takes it away from me.
Well, it gives you energy. But you have to spend energy to digest it first, which is the reason you feel tired and lazy
That is probably your body's reaction to carbs. Try eating mainly protein and fats and little carbs...see if you will still feel lethargic. Rice, breads, sugar makes insulin resistant people feel lazy weak heavy.
Some good comments to your message, which I can relate to- what I would add is that we probably have more than one type of experience or process that we call 'energy'- speaking personally, I find my mental edge much tougher when I am fasting and just drinking water, or even if I just eat light foods I find myself a bit more resilient or with a better mental edge than following heavy foods.
Eat balanced diet during eating window
Eat when you feel hungry then only you digest the food properly.
FILIPINO here!
Started fasting for 16 hours a day since
April 29, 2022. :)
It's been 2 days and I am feeling awesome.
30 minutes of calisthenics a day.
Starting to avoid red meat, oily and dairy products.
I intake veggies, fruits, beans, water, tea and fish only plus 2 cups of black coffee without sugar :)
Road to a happier and healthier life!
Be ready to welcome the revolution in you
his chong, I wanted to start IF too.. How are you keeping up in these 2 weeks.. Any hunger pangs? cravings?
bolok ka
Why red meat?
yo sir! kababayan here and i'm also a gemini. saludo sa'yo sir ❤🙏🏽🇵🇭
"Thats because you dont have the right colour of the skin" thats the simplest most profound truth i have heard in a while. Coming from an African country I can totally understand this.
Hahaha same sentiment!
I eat a meal at 6 am and 6 pm (1 meal every 12 hours) and I lost 70 pounds in 6 months.
I want to do the same for health reasons, but I am dangerously under weight. I have done intermittent fasting, I feel better, but then I start loosing weight and more weight, until I start feeling worse again. What do I do?
If I drink Golden Milk(coconut milk, turmeric and Ghee Butter) in the morning, am I still fasting? Or is that a meal?
@@SouEuMesmoAqui If you're active most of the day then you need 2 good meals. Have a 1000 calorie meal at 6 am and another 1000 calorie meal at 6 pm.
No snacking between meals.
Only Himalayan salt water or black coffee allowed.
Meal 1. at 6 am. Protein/carbs for fuel.
Meal 2. Protein/fats.
Example of a 6 am breakfast
Scrambled egg sandwich on wheat bread, cup of cooked rice, fruit smoothie, cup of bulletproof coffee,
Dinner at 6: large salad with cheese, 2 pieces of chicken, avacado, cup of stirfry vegetables cooked with butter, cup of bone broth.
Try the 2 meals a day every 12 hours for at least 2 weeks. Make sure to drink plenty of Himalayan salt water for electrolytes (3 to 4 cups a day).
Because you're underweight and have a fast metabolism you can still enjoy healthy carbs, fats, and fruit, but remember, 12 hours between meals is barely fasting. The benefits of fasting begin around 8 to 12 hours of no food. Good luck. I hope this gives you some ideas. You really have to experiment on yourself and try different eating times and fasting schedules to see what gives you the best sustainable energy. If I feel too tired or weak, I'll switch to something else. The eating schedule I just gave you works great for me. Carbs and meats in the morning, fat, meats and veggies for dinner.
What do you eat?
@@CocoxojopieanaEmphasis on meats and vegetables. NO FRUIT (fructose). Bacon a few times a week and I make sure that I always have pasture-raised eggs, avacado, bone broth, and vegetables. No breads, grains, cereals, rice, and very little dairy. I keep trying 1 meal a day but get very weak after a few days ... I lift weights and fairly active which probably means I require more food. 2 meals a day is easy for me.
Frankie Fernandez so don’t you feel hungry in between? And can I eat apple?
Ever since fasting my acne and hyper pigmentation have improved immensely and keep getting better
Really? How long did it take
Inspiration Motivation SAME!!
what is your fasting routine?
Did the scars disappear.. m fasting since 12 days... Want my deep acne scars to disappear
That's how your body heal itself... it heals and works properly if it get time not to focus on prossing junk food and remove toxins form body
...just like Earth is healing now due to corona virus.
I am on day 3 of a 5 day fast, wish me luck guys!
are you on Keto
My life changed completely when I started two meals a day. I was on insulin earlier and was 80 kg and had high blood pressure. Now I am 68 kg requiring no medicines at all. Now I eat at 8 am and at 6 pm only and at no other time. I eat less rice, no sugar, lots of chickpea, oats, fruits, vegetables. I now sleep much better and am extremely energetic and quite happy unlike what I was earlier.

Hi sir can you explain clearly what you eat for tiffin and dinner and in between the meals please share sir
Doing one Meal A day for a year lost 30 kilos feel healthier and more energetic than ever!
Congrats!
How do you control hunger initially?
Any multivitamin? How will u handle deficiencies?
How do u control hunger intitially?
Any deficiencies occured? Are u required to take multivitamin?
How do u handle people who offer u food at party,office or social gathering? I hate to give details to people but they keep asking.
@@thetree7694 you should never have to control your hunger or bear with it. It should come naturally.
What I did was progress gradually by delaying my breakfast everyday till it was the same time as lunch. Then I started delaying my lunch and brought my dinner early. Now I have one full meal at 6-7 pm everyday without any need to feel hungry or weak.
What you eat is also important. I eliminated almost all carbohydrates and have zero sugar and have my meal comprising mainly of healthy Fats, protein and vegetables. This the keto diet.
I also consume apple cider vinegar with Himalayan salt, lemon and ginger first thing in the morning.
Hope you find it useful.
Apologies for the lengthy answer 😅
@@meetp6695 Thank you for your detailed reply.
However, in my personal view, if you take himalayan pink salt, apple cider vinegar,ginger in the morning, it breaks your fast.
Also, did you take chapatis and rice while u were losing weight? If no, then what did you eat? One can't live on fruits alone for months together.
What if you don't need to lose any weight?!
What really got me was " ..every cell is made to create health - Except you!! "
I am 40. In December 2020 I was 97kg. Started intermittent fasting and mostly ketogenic diet. Fastest 18 hours daily. Lost down to 85kg within about 10 weeks. Then, the weight loss was slow and gradual afterwards. Came down to 73 kg by end 2021. Now, July 2022. I am about 72 to 73 kg. I am happy about it. I fast daily for 18 hours.. Not much of exercise besides walking routinely. Of course,off and on I treat myself with fancy fast food. But, such treats are few and far apart. So, yeah, fasting helps.
Wow...me same but not yetbstart
I started 16:8 this month, and is on day 15.I lost 2 kgs in 2 week. But I occassionally have tiredness and mental fatigue during the fasting hour. Is that normal, did you have that?
@@jessg101 try to take water at room temperature during your fasting hour.
@@jessg101 take than a pinch of Himalaya or Keltisch salt with an glas of water. After 15 min you'll feel fine
fasting Timing??
I searched a lot & came to the point that we should drink lots of water & also before & after eating meals & exercise a bit avoid junk food eat healthy at perfect times that is morning light lunch & lightest dinner can have coffee or tea if hungry
Obviously in a month twice or thrice eat little junk.
I am gonna start a new life with this hope this helps.
Plz don't forget to like so that i got to know how many read this.
Eat a little junk??? Why🤷
I've been eating once or twice a day my whole life, naturally, without being conscious of that. It's the best way to eat, honestly. Sadhguru is the best!
Do you lose tons of weight that way???..just wondering
Probably never gained it to lose. Doing this all their life
I started eating only fruits in the night 6 months back. Never felt so energized ever before in my life.
@@sureshgopalakrishnan5303 only in night??? ..... do you feel any hunger in mid night?

people say this, but it’s white people that’s the only ones it’s ok and justified to be racist again. Thing is, we don’t play victim card despite that.
Then you are very easy to impress and didnt pay much attention during the last years. I thought it was the most useless grifting. Especially from a guy who gets trafficed internationally by said racists.
so, are you racist?
I fast nearly every Monday and Tuesday and eat on Wednesday. I have been doing this for one year and my healing has been miraculous. I say now that my internal doctor is better than any doctor on the planet and I pay for this doctor by not eating.

@@Menaceblue3 doctors and police tend to have a god complex, and have a cognitive dissonance with people that they dont relate to.
NPC69 Actually what we are taught the “america diet” is based on the EUROPEANS. POeple of color are NOT the same as europeans.
You need to questions the white washed information you were taught. Look into history books written by people of color and you will be plesantly surprised (:
NPC69 NPC69 did q teach you your bias? Haha regardless of how uncomfortable comments like that may be, they are true. Western culture is heavily influenced by white folks as Europeans colonized and what not. I’m personally not demonizing them but it’s the truth. If you can look past that instead of getting butt hurt you could develop a better understanding of different cultures and see how certain narratives are pushed as wrong, just because one culture/industry has yet to study said Eastern practices.
The guy who won the Nobel Prize for work on autophagy is Japanese. Most cultures and religions, including Western ones, have some concept of fasting, with a sense of regeneration and renewal. Oshumi's work shows the mechanism by which low quality or damaged materials in the cell are recycled.
After seeing the research, I have gone to intermittent fasting and some extended fasts, with good results. Maybe some people get hung up on race, but when it comes to my health, I just want the best science.
I healed my 11 years of anorexia/bulimia with intermittent fasting. Never followed any protocole but it just cured me in no time...mentally too. Sometimes, i eat once a day for so i basically fast 23 hours and 40 minutes a day. I adapt my fasts to my hormonal cycle because (of course) i get very hungry between the second and third week of my cycle. That's usually when i break my good fasting habits and I automatically feel bad physically and psychologically when i don't IF. I hope everybody tries intermittent fasting. It has saved my miserable life with eating disorders and still helps with my depression. Not to mention that I have a slim and nice body without practicing any sport.
Wow, that's wonderful, well done! :)
Way to go, congrat.
So there is hope for me? Thank you
So did you gain weight with If ? I’m skinny for my height 6ft tall and 73kg I’m trying to get back up to 80kg or so . I now do 16/8 IF as regular 3 meals a day especially dinner was hard on my stomach and spleen so trying just breakfast at 7 and lunch at 1 and I then fast all day
Health is something from your inside. 12 hours apart between meals. Cellular purification happens only when stomach is empty.
I have been doing this recently intuitively felt that my body needed a rejuvenation, India culture can teach us a lot very clever people.🌸🌿💜
Pavan Kumar it’s not that. We just don’t like the smell and want to preserve our own culture. Just like you want to keep yours.
Speak for yourself
There are many things which anyone can learn from Indian culture. the only thing is that people believe on those things when anyone do research on things and publish them.
Panchkarma therapy
i liked your thought
On intermittent fasting for last 6+ months. Feeling lite, like floating in the air, high energy.
This is 100% True, for years I ate 5-6 meal a day and suffered from lot of health problems , then I switched to 2 meal a day and after a while I became really healthy felt myself 100times better.🍀
Observing a fast seems the body's way of self cleansing.
It basically streamlines your body's function. It stresses out a bit without food and is like we got get this dead weight off and kills the cells that aren't the highest functioning due to the fear of famine. So now when you fast your left with the best cells most of the time.
Great video! It's actually very important to sleep on an empty stomach so your body can actually relax and not be working hard digesting
Leah Nadeau I sleep sooo much better when I stop eating by 5pm.
Vanessa Avalos that’s awesome! 😊
I started doing one meal per day , I eat at around 11am.
A big plate of healthy food. Feel very satisfied and full.
And I am not hungry again until 10am the next day.
you eat just a animal animal never eat meals at night
A glass of milk with date would be better I think :)
I have lost 30 kgs when doing the Intermittent Fasting 😍
How long does it take?
I was battling weight gained, cut lost 170lbs was losing my mind regained weight again. Now I fast and eat what I want when I want and feel much better.
People say they have to eat three times a day because they give up at the slightest amount of discomfort and hunger and never really pushed themselves to try. Right now I am eating once per day and exercising at least one hour every day and I simply do not feel hunger until the 22nd-24th hours roll around. It's like Sadhguru says, health comes from the inside. Listen to your body.
Yes!!
It seems really impossible. I mean once a meal and 2-3 hrs a sleep?!! It requires a LOT of strength
What about kids and people in twenties
@@sonalidutt8723 you dont have to follow the exact lifestyle
@@sonalidutt8723 it’s not about strength at all. Less sleep is a natural outcome of eating one meal a day. Body will have so much energy. I am experiencing it now.

I love this man. Intelligent with a little bit of humour. And of course, common sense:)
I have always been responsible with my feeding, since 1999. Has helped me remain healthy, happy, sharp. I look much younger than my contemporaries. I fast (spend at least 10 hours without eating, except plain water) at least twice a week. It's amazing. Then: sleeping on an empty stomach - very powerful and energising.
omad helped me to understand why I used to eat, boredom, comfort, social, etc rarely because I was feeding myself, huge eye opener

American here! 👋🏼 I started timed eating 1 month ago and lost 12lbs easily. I eat at 12pm and never eat past 7pm. Two meals a day, low carbohydrate (not no carb) and high healthy fats. I’m 6’1” and weigh (currently 175lbs). I was 187 when the pandemic started. Eating this way makes it extremely easy to reduce calories. It’s very hard only eating twice a day to exceed your daily “recommended” caloric intake. I water fast for 24-36 hours occasionally and I have more energy now than when I was eating the standard American diet. Stop letting food control your life. Let it become an ancillary part of your daily routine and watch how your health improves.
Eating 1 or 2 times a day, doesn't it affect your vitamin and mineral intake?
Thankyou
I am from the Balkans, from a mountain village, my ancestors were traditional shepherds. They also had small gardens, but they ate a lot of wild vegetables and fruits ... True, they ate cheese, but in moderation ...
What I meant to say was my grandparents ate twice a day, in the morning around 10am and in the evening around 6pm. It's not just the Yoga tradition, it's something that all people used to do ... Besides lying down to sleep with the first dark ...
Shephards usually ate a significant percentage of their calories from dairy and meat.
Wild vegetables often have very few digestible calories at all.
Can you talk more about the sleep?
@@-whackd Yes, but they have other nutrients, probably necessary, as soon as they lived long. However, they ate a lot of plant-based foods, mostly complex carbohydrates, and fats from animal foods. As for the calories, they didn't eat a lot of calories, but they worked a lot ... and accordingly they looked ... Women always were, a shade thicker than men ...
Still, they didn't eat much protein ....
@justice paris They slept with the first darkness because they had no electricity and woke up with the first rays of the sun. That is, they slept longer in winter and shorter in summer. Perhaps the key is that they slept in the dark, without artificial lights, televisions, cell phones, monitors, and in complete silence ...
No said that only yoga promotes this.
And who said that Europeans had no connection with Bharat thousands of years ago. The whole world was sanatan dharmi.
Show this to the cereal and breakfast companies who have been pushing their products on consumers. Creating a lie that breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
Nitin Kumar break fast is important but what you eat and at what time you break your fast is up to you. Don’t let commercials dictate to you what you should eat. Do your own research.
U don't have to listen to them....
Yes sure it is ... But breakfast isn't always should be taken in morning... it's simple breakfast is the food you eat to break your long hour fast at any time of day.
(Morning meal is called breakfast coz you break your all night fast eating in morning)
Breakfast doesn't necessarily mean morning .

Cutting gluten products also ease pain in joints .it's 3.35 early in the morning and I woke up feeling fresh. Just follow the golden rule to control temptation. Sadhguru is excellent iand very logical ,and since I started watching his videos, I can say ,it certainly did help me.

It's a very good thing I've been doing it for few months now lost 10kg and feel amazing more energy better sleep more happy generally.Recommend!!!It happened naturally for me I didn't plan to do it but then I noticed I got into habit because of my lifestyle changes and I'm glad I did .
I eat 12 in afternoon and eat 8 pm. I lost 20kg in 2 months feel more active and healthy
During this time did you eat fruits and lemon with your salad ?
Really? I want to try this .. I'm 76 kls now.. That's so bad
@@irimiar fruits and salads don't make you fat... Even the watermelon (which is sweet) has way way less concentrated sugar than Cold Drink.
@@hybridwars3029 I don't drink cold drinks, I prefer smoothie made at home from leafy greens and fruits. My question 4 months ago was about intermitent fasting along keto diet to lose weight. Thanks anyway for your answer.
Can you please let us what did you eat during meal times
I was eating aloo parantha while watching this! I had to leave one after listening to this 🥺. Now I can just look at it for next 8 hrs before I am eligible to eat this.
Wise, aware, with huge knowledge, peaceful within, awakened man, Sadhguru is such an inspiration because he teaches complicated things in such a simple and easy way to understand. A true spiritual guide! Thank you. Namasté.
I did Shambhavi and I felt that I was less compulsive.. and I looked at the people in my College canteen eating icecreams and unhealthy food and I thought "that used to be me"
Shambhavi?
@@dr.willisofficial8041 inner engineering practice is called Shambhavi mahamudra
*That because you don't have right color of skin*
Sadguru Nailed it.
That car analysis was so vivid. He is so pragmatic. Thank you. I understood so much from this.
Intermittent fasting is definitely the way to go, I was raised by these dietary standards growing up with Rasta's in Jamaica, who did not eat past 6PM, till noon the next day. I am once again returning back to my dietary roots, not only to shed the excess pounds but to overall, have more energy and not summon extra energy for mundane task, when I could just have my energy reserve balanced.
Thanks for this, this is the exact eating pattern am going to do as a change in lifestyle
When I do not sleep for a day or two I am full of energy. If I do not eat more than once a day I feel light and clean. This schedule has been a life saver because I was left crippled after a Spine Surgery. This disability has been a Blessing because my Mind is opening to higher and clearer understanding each day. Thank You, Sadhguru/.
I’m currently in a Masters Degree in Nutritional Science and Dietetics internship In the U.S., and I have two under graduate degrees in Nutrition as-well. Through the whole of my western education in Nutrition, intermittent fasting is demonized in our education system. I have intermittent fasted for two-years now, and I quietly accept the criticism of classmates and professors alike. But I know something they don’t know, intermittent fasting isn’t a diet, but it’s a sustainable lifestyle practice. My body is adjusted and copes with stress, studying, illnesses, and anything thrown at it better than when I was a teenager (well, almost as well).
Intermittent fasting isn’t a diet, and it’s not meant to be a short term fix, to truly understand this practice it takes years. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to 3 meals a day, I haven’t had over two-meals in one day since mid 2018. We drown our bodies with food; therefore, it’s hard to hear our body crying out for a simple breath.
Wow. How much is the gap between your 2 meals ? What do you eat and drink ? I usually eat 3-4 meals in a day and I want to eat less , only 2 meals a day or even 1 meal .My gap between meals are 3-4 hours and during the night 13 hours . My longest fasting was with water 5 days in a row , followed by 4 days with vegetable juices . But I am struggle with eating less and seldom .
Iris Renate On most days I only eat one-meal-a-day (OMAD), usually putting me around 22-23 hour fast. On the other days I fast for at least 16 hours and and anywhere from a 6-8 hour eating window, this is commonly referred to as the 16:8 diet. During my fast I do not eat anything, and only drink coffee and green tea (no sugar, milk, or cream). However some days I add fiber (Metamucil) to my water, I’m not sure if it breaks my fast or not, but fiber is key for gut health, good cholesterol, and disease prevention. To break my fast I eat protein rich meals, protein induced the most satiety (fullness) between meals. Also, your body tends to break down amino acids first during a fast; however, amino breakdown is only temporary. If you were able to do a long term fast, you should try alternative day fasting (ADF). ADF is simply not eating every other day. Some people I know do ADF and combine it with 16:8 or OMAD on their eating days. I hope this helps you!
I’ve been fasting since December 1, 2021, fruits for lunch at 3:00, dinner at 6:00pm. I lost 26 LBS, I have more energy than I know what to do with it. It’s something that everyone should experience
I was feeling hungry and this video pops up . 😅 Now I am going to have only dinner no in between snacks .
I recently felt really ill with stomach issues..ie oily spicy foods.. so my body stopped wanting to eat. It happened for three days...I only drank simple juices and water. I was still very alert and energetic. It was amazing. I do eat only twice a day too. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🌹
Advertently I once saw a video he made, then I was obsessed with his videos. Such a revered man. Much respect. 🌹🌸
I am water fasting right now by myself and would love support since nobody I know would do it with me!!
I'm on day 3 of water fast. I'm with you.
Been trying the intermittent fasting during the lockdown period and I'm still fine
Do u consume sugar, milk or sweets in the eating window?
Same here
@@musiclover58745 don't do that... Have a low carb diet, no sweets ... Check keto diet on google n have that
@@prpinto631 does consuming sweets (as a snack) only once a day bring me out of fast in the eating window?
@@musiclover58745 I think it's okay, at least you're still in calories deficit state, I mean if u want to lose weight
Since I began eating once a day and eliminate sugar, starch and such, two significant results occurred: energy levels rose and mood improved significantly, both aspect most beneficial to really understanding words of wisdom as those from this enlightened man; one good thing really doesn't come alone. Just by changing my eating regimen my entire life changed.
Thank you for this knowledge. I will try and follow your advice, and you are right about some Americans, we think we need a lot of food to maintain our bodies. I'm glad I was wrong! I've been drinking warm water with a pinch of turmeric and honey. You have been a superior teacher.💕
I also thought our cultural Indian fasts were bad for health until I dug deeper...they are so nicely designed to keep your health the best!
The first one minute says a lot . Everything about our history and science in it
Thanks for reminding me how to feed my body the right way !
This makes so much sense as to why I am so productive and my brain is most active in the AM. I wake at Dawn, drink a green drink, take my natural supplements and stay hydrated abs won’t eat a full meal until 12 or after. Most times I’m not even hungry until much later.
I typically remind myself to tackle mental tasks while my stomach is emptied. Love the affirmation.
I reversed my health issues by following long term fasting and later one meal a day.. I reversed my diabetes, fatty liver and many more hidden illnesses.. and reduced my weight from 92kg to 73kg
How many hours was your long term fasting ?
@@shaileshguptafilms not hour its days, 21 days only water with Himalayan pink salt..
@@sputniksheol9217 can you share in detailed
21 days without food at all? 😯 Didn't you faint? Too many days without vitamins and minerals. Can you share more details about it? Thank you
Oh! how i loved this video...not only because it is pure common sense, but it validates how i have been my entire life...when Forced to live the 'usual' way..i got sick..when i got sick..i returned to my normal..and got better..without their drugs or doctors....Life is Spiritual..i dance..it is extreme exercise..every muscle is toned..and i also got a degree in computer science, because my mind is always active...meals? twice a day..many hours apart, maybe 8 i have not counted, and small meals they are, as feeling 'stuffed' is terribly uncomfortable and totally un-necessary..all these things..and so much more, like 2-4 hours sleep..up all night, sleep after sunrise..walking instead of driving or riding anything..mostly so i can be looking deeply at the nature..and whole world around me, feeling every atom of this body as part of it all..universally..sharing consciousness with every living thing, i am aware of all the time..i have done all these things all my life on pure instinct..it was not until just recently that i learned it is a discipline that is taught..Not sure why it is that it is in me, but..there it is.....Very Happy to learn i have been on the Right path! my friends and family say i am spooky or crazy. Thank You Sadhguru. Much Love and Many Blessings
I was in love in Autophagy research topic since 2008 in my early college days and went to Italy in 2009 to work on it in human cell lines. Autophagy is cell self death and its contents are fuel and uptaken by other cells for survival. I even wrote to the Japanese scientist in 2010 to do my PhD but he said he is retiring and recently he got Nobel prize.
BUT THIS PASTING TECHNICA KNOW 30 YEARS BACK BY MANTHENA SATYANARAYANA RAJU.HE BELONGS TO NATUROPATHI.
Do u mean to say he didn't encourage you...or he got a late Nobel ...
Can u share ur email id??? Wanted some help on autophagy... Wanted my deep acne scars to disappear... M trying omad with keto diet... Very lean but managing
@koteshwar009 please share ur email id
@@prpinto631 Hi, I worked in autophagy as undergraduate summer research student in 2009. Later, though interested my masters and PhD work was not in autophagy so no experience in it. My PhD was on inflammatory bowel disease, yes there is autophagy in the intestine cell wall but my supervisor was not into autophagy and it was more of animal studies with nutrition
To everyone who is experiencing a difficult situation:
To shoot an arrow you have to pull it backwards. So when life drags you back with some troubles, it means it's going to launch into something better.
I needed to read this. Its very simple, but it means a lot during troubling times.
Good
Just started water fast and realized how much body issues slow me down. Been feeling great and getting things done.
I love him, thank you . You make so much sense
I have to admit I have been eating one meal a day and practice yoga. At the very best state! You are a gift to us sadhguru.
Listening to Sadhguru makes me feel enlightened and more knowledgeable. And he has a vibe of credibility in his tone.
Much to my surprise. My Dr gave me congratulations. Because my blood numbers were so good. I'm no longer diabetic. I've been intermittent fasting for 2 months. And I'm 65 yrs old.
Thank you very much!! Namastè!! Blessings!! ❤️🙏🏻
So i was right when i didn't eat for 2 or 3 days. I must restart. My body needs to be detoxicated 🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤🙏❤
Nobody can become financially successful over night. They put in background work but we tend to see the finished part. Fear is a dangerous component, hindering us from taking bold steps we need in other to reach our goals.
I watch this video every month.😅At first i was struggling to fast but now I've completed a 62hr fast i was aiming for 84 but i became tempted by the smell of food but now I'm doing 36 to 48 hour fasts as part of my lifestyle then I'll try the 84 hr fast again,I'll come back here to update once i have.🙏
Must be time for an update! Looking forward to hearing how you are going :)
Update
Sadhguru, when one being becomes enlightened, the whole world will become enlightened I AM COMING Sadhguru thank you for showing me the way
Yeah that would be awesome.
Hay let's make earth paradise again....your wish is universe's command....earth is healing itself....so what you wanted is really coming through...Law of attraction...when you really want something the whole world conspires.... Thank You Universe Thank You Life....Thank you mother earth and Thank You God....
Thank you so much Sadhguru 😀🙏 This was an exceptionally, brilliant message!! Thank you dearly 🙏🤗💙😘
Great video. I'm searching now for more of the guru. I'm on day 2 water fast, aiming for 5 to 7 for detox and weight loss.
My friend went to Goya, India and he lost 35 pounds in one month. He said that if I wanted to lose weight, go to India. I used to be vegetarian and I was always happy. Then my doctor told me to eat meat. That’s why I had weight problems in California. Now I’m in Minnesota and I feel much happier as a vegetarian. In Korea they don’t have many fat loss commercials like in America. Obesity is a serious disorder often from broken families and lack of education on nutrition. 😍🐶❤️❤️
This is great thoughts to implement our brain and also skills so thank you so much sadguru.
Why am I not suprised Sadhguru is doing OMAD! And he also sleeps very very little. People dont believe this. But after experimentations myself. I eat much less, sleep much less, but have more energy? Magic? Took 3 months for me to see the transformations. I'm always a sceptic. But if it works, it works....
1. Start eating 2 big meals a day spread out. Once comfortable try OMAD. No snacking in between, this is very important.
2. Make sure your body and mind are at ease, total relaxed. Yoga and meditation can help with this.
3. Exercise in nature. Anything you like.
4. You become super human. Sleep went down for me from 8 to 6 hours. Perfect skin, stable energy. Feeling very happy.
But I only been doing this 3 months. I think it will get even better. If you compare human body to a machine. The more efficient it runs, the less maintenance it requires(sleep, food). Good Luck.
thanks for sharing.
Will try this from tomorrow
Thanks
What's OMAD?

Fasting two days a week is very common in my family, Monday and Thursday. (the prophet recommended those days so..) and believe me we are so better than most families in our building in terms of health and happiness. Sadhguru makes a lot of sense ❤
“Thank you for your acknowledgement concerning the color of the skin.” Our Earth needs to hear this message. ✨✌️✨
Oh Sadhguru! If we are taught all this at school & if the teachers are half as enlightened as you, all the students would be empowered. The state of this world & the quality of our lives would change! 🙏🏻
Agree totally
You do meditation?
