I eat once a day and everyone tells me how unhealthy this is. However most of these people are over weight. In my opinion, as a society we constantly over eat forcing our bodies to be in continuous digestion.
There was a video about a scientist slash product creator in Japan. He made stuff like markers n notebooks that write under water. He only eats 1 meal a day and sleeps 4 hours a day. It was incredibly interesting. His 1 meal of choice was a curry rice sorta thing he made that had stuff added to cover his vitamin mineral etc needs. Was a good watch
@Jennifer Raymond: I find that people that always give unsolicited advice usually have absolutely no idea about what they are actually giving advice on, and if it's about diet and health, they are usually extremely unhealthy.
My mom started eating once a day and cured her psoriasis that she's been battling for 25 years. To say she is extremely happy is an absolute understatement.
@@ksweetist She just eats normal. Eggs toast or sandwich and veggies . Fasting for 12 hours or so. She has dinner around 6 or so and then doesn't eat until lunch time the next day. She eats lunch and dinner so maybe she eats twice a day with the long fast over night. Her skin has totally healed and she's the happiest Mom in the world.
It's funny when people say fasting is unhealthy or you're starving yourself. The more I learn about fasting the more I'm convinced It's one of the healthiest things you can do for yourself.
Have you ever fasted yourself? If so, did you take K and Mg supplements or multivitamins? I've been wanting to fast for so long now but I'm a little warry of doing it without the proper supplementation.
@@astronautadejakku9699 you can do the sea salt water and if needed it's also good the use a good electrolyte powder with no sugar and additives. However you can do a fast without the electrolytes if you want you will still benefit greatly from it. I've only done a 24 hour fast in terms of prolonged fasts and I just added some salt to water and drank teas and stuff
@@astronautadejakku9699 in short I'd say it would be optimal to use electrolytes or salt water but I wouldn't worry about it hugely if you don't because as I said you will still benefit greatly. Just ease your way in so it's easier for you
I did a 24 hour fast recently and I was planning on eating when I got home about that 24 hour point. I just decided that I would go to sleep and extend my fast so I ended up going 34 ish hours instead. I will openly admit that I used to be controlled by food and that I can see how most people are addicted to food and food habits.
Your bang on, its the junk food and snacks I got addicted to during lockdown. I put on over 2 stone , I wasn't eating this crap b 4 in fact I was an intermittent eater. I went through a bad NDE in 2019, I was dealing with everything really well and bam convid. Lockdown. I hardly went out or exercised and in the evening would sit alone watching TV eatting crips and ice cream biscuits just junk. Not ever night but most nights. Anyway I new I'd gained weight 🤪 but was denying it untill I stepped on my scales.omg I was shocked. I'm 5ft tall and it's not got on my body , my back has been really bad . Since losing a stone in weight my back feels a lot better. My chest pains have been better also. I have Angina also. I surpose I want to get back into my nice jeans and cloths but my health was the first thing. I'm now going on another fast. I could live of the fat round my waist lol. It works . It's good for your health just cut out the junk
@@disnalee icy cold showers have many benefits! It does boost the immune system and it helps in faster recovery from work outs among other benefits. It reinforces discipline, etc. Lol 😂. You don’t know what you’re saying.
I just told my dad yesterday that the only way I can control my anxiety without meds is to not eat. It gives me a calming feeling. Sometimes the body needs a break. It's ok to fast.
I've now been fasting 19-20 hours per 24 hrs. For the last 5 weeks. It's helped so much with my depression and helped me lose 1 stone in weight. I will continue with this.
I accidentally lost 50 pounds by switching up to one meal a day when my work schedule changed to afternoons and nights. I was sleeping in through breakfast and would just have a cup of coffee after waking. Wouldn't be hungry so started skipping lunch and having a meal regularly around 7 p.m. in the afternoon. I'm 50 years old and holding steady at my old high school weight for the first time in my life and feel great. The only downside was having to replace my entire wardrobe with clothes that fit. Came to that conclusion when I was standing in line at the grocery store and my old shorts fell down around my ankles in front of everyone and I said, "Screw this, we're going shopping for new clothes."
ive been fasting for a year - 20-22 hours a day, sometimes 48 hours maybe once a week. Eat a good meal most days and ensure im getting all the right nutrition,. I lost 60kg, reversed diabetes type 2, and when combined with exercise I got off anti depression pills. brain is much sharper and all my indigestion problems are long gone. Its a great way of taking care of yourself, especially when you study the cell regeneration and replacement and overall way the body works. Once you do it for a period of time, you never get hungry. Everyone overeats - I was guilty as anyone else.
@Sandy Shines drink a lot of water, have variety of fruits and vegetables, small portions of meat you can try fish, and the most important be conscious of what are you feeling, don't let your body stays in automatic mode
That's great but aren't we supposed to go "potty" everyday? If we don't have food in us for lets say two days how can we get the yuckies out or will there be no yuckies because no food?
Im doing that now fasting like you said about 22 hrs a day... unfortunately I just started so im in the angry phase right now... angry bcoz I wish I could say its not making me feel better so I can eat but having to admit that after only 5 days I feel great and I want to keep feeling great... I know I got a ways to go but I think im really going to make it this time the benefits are to good not to...
Just completed a 15 day water fast. Lost 30lbs from 376 and BOY did it make a huge difference. It gave me the paradigm shift I needed to start another two more weeks.
Just a word from experience... It's ok to do that for the first time when you have a lot of weight to lose, but you will lose muscle too, which in turn will slow your metabolism, so try to do 2 - 3 day fasts and have enough protein and do strength training so you build back muscle and stay fit and light, otherwise you could yoyo yourself back to the weight you lost
@@lucringo6798 I’m also on my second day! Well as of right now I’ve been 54 hrs fasting… I’ve done 2 days before, I’m trying to do the 72 hrs this time or maybe a little more let’s see how it goes, but so far feeling good! You can do it! 💪🏼
Amazing really I'm so happy that you cut a big difference and I wish you don't get diverted by what people says around about how weak we look or appearance let it be and continue cutting as much without going back to past. I just started so don't forget you guys are my motivation so I hope you don't deviate.
Great job!! The longest water fast I've completed is 15 days too! It is an enlightening experience and gives you a huge mental, health, and spiritual reset. It helped break food addiction to refined carbs, sugar, and binge eating. Be careful with the refeed and ease into it.
Awesome info....I'm a recovering alcoholic...been off the vodka for 2 yrs thanks to these YT vids and my desire to get my life back...I took a chance , tried keto w/fasting....cravings for the booze diminished...
I did. I realized that I was allergic to soy, dairy, eggs and shellfish. I had to abstain from these foods and 1 year worth of acupuncture got rid of it.
YES! I have dermatitis on my face but my face has cleared since I stopped eating crap, I eat a small meal and maybe one or two green drinks that I make at home. So yes the less I eat my skin is also MUCH better! It’s crazy.
This new lifestyle has cured me. No more IBS, muscle and joint pain, no more bone pain. I am learning self control. Food does not own me no more! 🙌 I eat to live. I don't live to eat.
Extended fasting will do more to improve your health than anything else. You start to understand your food addictions, your mental acuity gets sharper, you lose FAT rapidly while maintaining MUSCLE & increasing Growth Hormone levels. It's probably the most important practice I've brought into my life.
Same here, people tend to believe you constantly need food and drinks to keep your energy going. This is just a reprogramming phase, when your body starts living of fat reserves it actually is the best fule for the brain. With fasting I could also see skin improvents, and a lot of other health benefits.
I was in a keto group that had long since devolved into a prolonged extended fasting group and everyone in the group looked very haggard and aged? I would think it was just being thin and not having fat on their faces but I am medically underweight and don’t look this way. Does anyone understand the mechanism of this? My health and vanity are at war. I want to stay optimally healthy but do not want to look weathered and drawn in exchange. Perhaps taking collagen whilst “fasting” I think at least some were dry fasting. I know this is correlation and only one group but they truly looked haggard. I love the look of being underweight and this was beyond that it was something being lost in elasticity and tone and it really put me off that path
What about your muscles though? And your body taking from the stores that you have and depleting them?? Can you educate me on this?? Since when I fast it’s what I like typically but I also notice that I lose muscle in certain areas. And keep fat in the same areas.. but I intermittently fast almost every day.
@@erindianacathey96 You are gonna lose fat all over your body but some parts are gonna hold more fat than others. Its gonna take getting really lean to get those parts that hold the most fat more noticeably lean. As far as the muscle sometimes we think we have more muscle than we think but when we start to lose weight it turns out you might not have as much muscle there as you thought.
My grandmother is 84 and stronger and healthier than most of us younger ones, especially my mothers siblings and that age group. She has stretched and done yoga before America thought it cool. She has exercised her entire life and lived off most of the food she grew. She also said that sometimes she will cut out an entire food group for a period of time. She said she lost weight and felt better. Once she felt done for the time period she would slowly re-introduce the food group to help her system digest it easier. I think that is something interesting.
08/15/19 I agree that you are what you think you are & what you do to manifest what you think you are in real life. Therefore, you think the thoughts~ Then you show that your thoughts are more than fantasy- By walking the thoughts to actual fruition. Put in the work or be a jerk!
I have lost 40kg(89llb) in about 4 months from fasting everyday, just eating once a day and minimum 10k steps per day and I haven't missed one day till this moment. I also did integrate going to the gym 5 to 6 days à week. I feel very good now
Based on my experience, I think there is no need to complicate your diet. I are normal, didn't do any specific diet l, just ate proper meals and tried to put my calories between 800 to about max 1200. I didn't do any keto or vegan or any other sort of diet, I was just consistent with my fasting and calories intake. Also I didn't eat cheese and avoided all deep fried foods,drank only water no alcohol, no juice just water. That's was just it
Great info, I appreciate how he speaks about not saying “I have this” or “I have that” even after you may be diagnosed. Words and beliefs are more powerful than we can ever understand. Self talk and spirituality are a huge part of wellness
I concur! I was told by Dr's the diagnosis they observed was MS. I IMMEDIATELY told myself, you dont have anything, this thing theyve named MS, is showing up with these symptoms. Let's tend to the causes of these symptoms and fix them. By the end of this year, my scans will show up clear!
@@mindblownwhattheydidntteachyou I have ms too and I love this mindset! I don't know how to get out of negative self talk... you're right it drags you down.
I did 90 hours fasting my first time and it cured me off caffeine addiction, and sugar in one go. Losing 15 lbs was a plus. My acne disappeared as well. I will give it 10nout 10 review
@Dachs & Rottweiler surprisingly I did train on my days of fast. Mind you it was light weights and I had a lot in tank than I expected on cardio. No I did not lose muscle it is just 3 days not 21 days. And even I seen people who did 21 they loss were majority fat. The ones that didn't exercise during lost some muscle but the ones that did didn't lose as muchbas you would expect it
We Muslims keeping fasting for a month. 1500 years ago our holy prophet use to keep fasting twice a week as well.now science proved its actually beneficial. Proud to be a Muslim ☺️❤️
I have an unhealthy relationship with food. I eat when I'm stressed 😩. Working nights as a nurse...I am aways stressed Today is going to be my first day of fasting and I'm already anxious about being hungry during my shift. It's going to take me a while to change my mindset for sure
Green tea will help you ease your mind and not be so aware of being hungry. The personal satisfaction of having fasted, and knowing how well you’re treating your body from the inside out, are so rewarding. Keep going. You can do it. ♥️
I am also a nurse and I find working night shift is the perfect time to fast. Start at night 6pm,11pm or 12am. I will usually have my last meal before the start of my night shift. That way the first few hours your distracted, and then hopefully sleeping. The hardest part is the first 36 hours. Don’t go into the Lunchroom at work. Stay away from others while they’re eating. Watch a quick YT video for motivation. I’ve fasted during work many times, you will be fine. In fact, I believe I loose more weight during fast because I am active. Get good quality electrolyte drops and add to water to avoid arrhythmias or palpitations due to withdrawal. Currently on a 10 day water fast (longest has been 5 days previously) I am 4 days in and have lost 10 pounds. Starting weight 192.
The issue that I noticed with fasting is that people try to make it too scientific, too precise and too strict. For me it's best to keep it simple. Most days that I work out I eat 2 meals which lets me fast for about 18 or so hours. The days I don't work out I eat one meal and sometimes I don't eat. Depends how I feel. On the weekends I usually fast for 30+ hours but if I feel hungry, I'll eat. It's that simple. Yes, sometimes I decide to fast for a certain period of time, but it's not a religion. It doesn't have to be every day. Your bodies are designed for variety. Not just in food but in when you eat. And everyone's body is different. So, keep it simple. Eat when you're really hungry. Fast often, but not too long. And for F#### sake WORK OUT. It's amazing when you get good at it.
Totally agree. I imagine that's how we used to eat a long time ago: some day plentiful, some days sparse. Sometimes days a lot of physical work, some days a lot of sitting around. Makes total sense
Dr. Sten Ekberg Hi .. I’m taking advantage of this opportunity to say your videos outclass many on CZcams.. Precise, concise and very interesting!.. Thank you..
NOBODY BLAME THE FOOD INDUSTRIES nobody , WE addicted with sugar SUGAR SUGAR not FOOD, THEY ARE PROTECTING THE FOOD INDUSTRIES THE FOOD industries are killing HUMANITY..
I have had many issues during my life. Thyroid cancer, digestive issues which resulted in a twisted bowel and right bowel resection. I had hypoglycemia and finally learned about my gluten allergy. I do amazing when I stay with OMAD. I'm such a proponent. Happy to see people also enjoying the benefits. Mike is one of my favorite people on CZcams
When I don’t eat for a day, I can feel the weight leave my body instantly. If I go beyond 2 days I can only imagine what it will do! We don’t live to eat, we eat to live!
It has taken me decades to catch up all the wonderful information that is provided through the Internet and through the books that I read. I was severely traumatized growing up in a family where my parents were emotionally dysfunctional. The result was I had a stutter that caused both myself and my teachers to think that I was probably stupid. That was 20 years ago. I have developed confidence that has taken the stuttering tongue away! So I’m thankful to anyone that can provide me with information that is cutting edge technology. Thank you Tom!
Bless u alan, i know how much parents stress can harm kids as i also suffered much stress at home although our environment was quite okey i guess in comparsion to others
My wife’s father lives on 3 meals a day mostly meat rice beans. He is 86, takes no tablets, goes to the gym 3 x per week. Both your example and mine are N=1 anecdotes which mean nothing in statistical terms. Just like everyone knows someone who had a grandparent back in the day who smoked 80 cigarettes a day their whole life and lived to 100. 😉
@Kundan Singh Adhikari Sounded like 1 week fast, 4x a year. So every 3 months. I've fasted 3-4 days twice over the past 2 years and noticed great health benefits (cognitive, skin, digestion, etc). I'm sure a 1 week fast every 3 months does wonders for health and longevity.
Energy is gained while sleeping in your bedroom and not dining table. Also, there's a deep connection between your stomach and mind. Health depends on the following in order: Mind (Positive thoughts) > Sleep > Food.
I eat once a day around 1pm sometimes I'll have a smoothie in the am but after that I eat once around 1pm and I'm done. People tell me I have an eating disorder I tell them it works for me and I feel better for it. Great post dude 👌
Me too! My time is 1 and that's it. Nothing but just water and green tea until the next day. Only if I know I'm getting too hungry I would eat at noon.
36 hours of fasting for me is within my comfort as well. After that point I can feel my stress levels elevate and I start feeling pretty uncomfortable. I have been doing IF now for 3 months and lost about 10 kg and I only have about 5 more kg to go to my ideal weight, so I don't have any big reasons to go beyond 36 hours of fasting anyway. Good luck to everyone doing IF! :)
Recently started watching your content on CZcams Mike, really awesome and inspiring to see you on this show and building your platform...Much success to you and thank you!
High Intensity Health you are great. That was the show I wanted to see. Both of you together in a show. When I see one of you I think of the other because you both have similarities in personality and perspectives.
In the spring and summer we eat from sprouting plants, flowers, etc in the winter we should eat tubers and other underground nutrition. During the winter the energy from the plants is stored in the roots, etc once the spring arrives the energy and nutrients begin to travel from the roots to the stems and leaves.
Many Christians have been doing this, fasting, for generations. Not necessarily for a health benefit but for clarity, sacrifice and to draw closer to God. It's not random but there is an encouragement to pray, worship and listen during those times that you would be eating. Also, it's done at certain periods of the year and done corporately, ie the entire church body.
Just playing with Keto as a means of weight loss. 5 stone overweight. I am learning a lot from youtube. Dr Berg, and guests on your show. You are opening up thoughts and encouragement for me to gain the healthiest life option for me. I don't worry about living forever...I have that promise from scripture. I feed on Jesus in my heart and have peace as a gift from His sacrifice. I am on it now! Eternal life with a transformed body for eternity and now I'm able to get out of the body of fat flesh and into a wholesome body for life. So exciting. THANKS
Hi. Have a look at dr becky gillaspy. She really explains everything in the most simple way. I am almost 3 stone down now with 2 to go and finding it the easiest way ever. Im 60 and a life time dieter. This time i know i have it sorted.
I'm a 62 year old woman from Manchester U.K & have found the knowledge & information on Mike Mutzels channel invaluable in solving a 50 year yo yo dieting problem. This interview was fascinating & so intelligent...loved it. (Btw this is the first ever public comment I have EVER made so definitely impressed) liked Tom's laid back interview technique too x
Congratulations, my dear! Keep the Good Going! And don’t forget to share what you’ve learned. Of course it’s up to them to do the sagging thing. But just suggest it and see if the seed does grow! 🙏🏽🙌🏽👍🏽❤️🌅
@Lively Stones ...and there is plenty of water falling on Manchester for sure. Keep up the good work, best thing I've ever done...and I've tried everything x
YES! YES!! YES!!! FINALLY!!! SOMEONE ADDRESSING THE MOST over looked concepts of the profound importance of DIVERSITY of natural nutrients of your food. Color! seasons,. VARIETY of your nutrients is ESSENTIAL. What a fantastically balanced perspective presented by you both. Outstanding. An all inclusive understanding Adjusting accordingly. Brilliant common sense approach. You nailed it again, Tom. Love you, man.
Almost done with a seven day water fast. Passed worms, actually got more energy today (day 6), and cleansed a ton of gunk out of my digestive tract and organs. I feel cleaner. Oh, and I took off ten pounds. That ain't water weight, either: I've been drinking water like crazy to deal with the hunger. Most of it was pure burnt fat. Broke thru a plateau, and figured out some interesting things about my body and health.
I AGREE. i feel like the task of eating is so nagging and time consuming. i used to struggle with food a lot but sometimes having to eat is just an annoyance.
6:14 7:25 8:1316:3629:07 I love his initial response to questions: "such an awesome question" "Beautiful question" "That's an amazing question" "You bring up a great point" "That's a deep question" "100% agree" "You're absolutely right"
True. I find it funny that people's first thought during epidemics or snow storms etc is quick! stock up on food. You can go quite awhile without food. There is so much food in America. I find most people don't care about neighbors and others like they use to. But boy if they think someone might not have food they will contribute even to complete strangers. As if food is the most important thing. Especially a bunch of processed unhealthy food.
@@TheFirstCalled.60AD a human can go with out food about "3 weeks" without food, obviously there are instances where people have gone longer. but you cannot go more than 4-5 days without water. keep in mind that historically people didn't eat all day long OR everyday. So I believe that's what they mean by overrated.
Brilliant! I am 59 y o and have never been that fit and I was an athlete in the past!!! Keto, fasting, HIIT, quality sleep, and so on. What was the main change? -> My state of mind: consistency, attitude, being grateful, and embracing abundance!
I love the feeling of not having a full stomach. I like to eat in the evening and be free during the day. I try to have an empty stomach after 2 hours so I never stuff myself. I usually have great energy and I’ve never felt better.
M3 to hate the feeling of feeling as tho my stomach is full . I gave up meat years ago , not because I'm a veggie or anything , it was the thought of disgusting it.
1. i think what i gonna eat 2. i think where i'll go 3. i eat 4. i cant do shit for like 1 hour minimum one meal takes 2-3 hours everyday, that's why fast food and browsing while eating is popular
It's obsessive and addictive with most people. It's like people who are clearly not starving are remembering starving on a cellular level. There is no reason to be so consumed with food in today's society. It is getting on par with gluttony for some.
I have fasted all day everyday all of my adult life. Although I did not know that I was fasting I was just doing what made my body happy. I have always been active and my work has always included lots of activity. I eat supper and eat whatever I wanted for snacking at night. I never called it or knew I was fasting. I just always considered myself a nocturnal feeder! I have always been thin, healthy and had great muscle tone. I was told so often that it was wrong & would make my body think it was being starved and get fat. That has never happened. The only exercise I have ever done consistently is Yoga. Every time I tried to eat breakfast or lunch like people told me I had to do. I would feel loss of energy & feel lazy. I am 56 years old and I have recently cut my sugar intake because I ate a lot of sugar. There is so much research about the harmful effects of sugar. But that is the only adjustment I have made. So, my theory remains listen to your body and what works positively for you.
I have been eating one meal a day or OMAD and in about 6 months I have lost 53 pounds!! I was pre diabetic, not anymore. My blood pressure was always high, not anymore. And my energy is never low, just on the first days because I was adapting
Taking care of our mental health, going after our dreams every day, but not forgetting our body, our health. Self-care is part of self-love, put yourself and your health first ♡
Marlene Holley the only parts I see are “Food isn’t my life - I eat to live” Quite the conundrum ya got there but I get the point this paradoxical statement is attempting to make 🤪 I’d say its a large part of your day if it’s what sustains your life 🤷🏻♀️
The advantage of keto for me was how much it illuminated my overall relationship to food. Carbs and sugar and constant insulin spikes were emotional connections. So when I started eating healthier and fasting, I began dealing with deeper personal issues and developed the self respect to continue living in an overall healthier manner.
I have been doing IF for 2 weeeks now and it has already improved how I feel. I used to have migraine attacks atleast twice a week, which affected my work and life in total. I thought it's because i do shift work but the headaches persisted even when I stayed on days. Now, I haven't had a single attack despite my funny schedule at work. I am thankful that I come across this information.
It never stops to amaze me how life’s greatest personal challenges provides the greatest gifts. Mike Mutzel is an intelligent, kind, and humble health expert. To hear his life’s challenges was really inspiring. Thank you Tom great interview.
@@robertk8085 Wow.. what a pretentious and an ignorant statement. Calling a whole culture who happens to enjoy a certain kind of music "classless" And as if listening to rap makes you classy lol.

So believe it or not you too are in that class you happen to despise.
Thanks for the great video. I've done a 7day water fast and carrying on with diluted juices. I'm on day 10 now. Have dropped from 80,5 kgs down to 73,5 and need to lose 10 more kgs. I feel great and can't believe that I was so strong to go through this. I had many health problems and want to change my life and eating habits for a better health. Everyone should try some fasting just get your mind into it.
My daughter is 8 and she hardly ever has breakfast. She’s just not hungry. I used to get frustrated as I wanted her to have a good breakfast and not be hungry before lunch at school. But she’s actually not hungry before lunch. Soni don’t force her to have breakfast. She listens to her body, and I’m OK with that.
@@cryptochris5336 that's harshly put... Although i agree. Kids rarely want to eat. But they need it, because they're still growing and developing, they need way more food than one might think. Fasting, intermediate fasting etc is for adults.
@@cryptochris5336It could be construed as being neglectful, not ordering your kids to eat breakfast but I think at 8 if the daughter really wanted to eat she could make it herself, and maybe it would just create conflict if it was a forced thing. It wasn't the way my generation did things but maybe different strokes for different folks?
Good for you! I hated eating breakfast as a child. It made me feel nauseous and I couldn’t properly wake up. My parents fought me with it for years. By 15, I was doing it my way, and now at age 59, I believe that listening to my body was smart. I’ve never been overweight and I’m extremely healthy at my age.
A lot of people (not all) who have a very unhealthy lifestyle definitely do it unconsciously to self harm. Many start doing so much better having a good diet, losing weight, working out to an exaggerated degree sometimes. Then fall off the wagon when they start to feel better because their mental health issues makes them self sabotage. Like a way to tell themselves that they don’t deserve good things to happen to them. I truly believe that if the mental health issues/ trauma are not treated also, the good changes in lifestyle are less likely to be permanent. Another thought I have is that when these mental issues are not addressed people hide behind their healthy diet. Hear me out. There are a lot of people who as teenagers are addicted to drugs. Then stop doing said drugs but now they develop an eating disorder, then become super focused on supplements, etc. People just continue to get addicted to different things. They just switch addictions. In my humble opinion it should start with learning healthy coping skills, healing the trauma while also eating healthier and sleeping enough. I’m working on that.

Annette Sichamba Thank you. I am also following intermittent fasting from 12pm to 6 pm. It works for me too. My goal is to attempt 36 hours fasting once a week. It’s getting easier as my body gets used to regular fasting. Hopefully I can do some day a 7 day distilled water only fasting as a cancer prevention measure.
Natalia Li I heard distilled water alone can flush the ions out of body,important to add some in like sea salt,Celtic salt .I heard distilled is hard on the body when in a fasted state.
Fasting is the most amazing way of living, that changed my life completely, I started IF 4 months ago including keto and carnivore diet ,man i lost 31 pounds, I feel so energetic, more confident, the best feeling is when your friends and family noticed the body changes and congratulate you for the efforts ,amazing 👌
Listen to how sharp this man is, he’s been fasting for 24 hours a whole day without food, let that sink in if your still thinking you need food to function
Apparently adrenaline kicks in...at 36 hours of fasting I felt great, energy all day. My morning blood sugar was in the low 80’s but then kicked up to 110 after a walk, my liver was releasing glucose for energy, very fascinating. I’m dealing with type 2 diabetes, keto diet got me most of the way to lowering my blood sugar into the normal range and fasting is so easy because i’m not having carbohydrate withdrawals.
@@digitallocations1423 False. Hunger is your body's conditioning to meal expectancy. Leptin and ghrelin control your hunger. You can condition yourself to change the frequency of the hormone being released.
I just completed 3 days fast now and I have to say it really works in 3 days I lost 4 kgs. It's really hard to overcome the cravings especially during night but my goal is to loose weight so I see myself in the mirror and remind why I started the fast. I hope I can make 2 more days.
Don't get too excited about initial weight loss while exhausting your glycogen stores when fasting. For every glycogen molecule, each is bound to 3 water molecules which are released when the glucose in the glycogen is freed. It is not until you have depleted most of your glycogen that you actually start using free fatty acids for fuel or ketone creation. That is when the true fat loss occurs.
@@garzascreek Great, I have been fasting since 4 days I'm doing OMAD , and taking small portion of carbs , my question is , will the glycogen get stored at this moment when I'm already fasting 23 hours Period. Now I feel like my floating is bit gone and I'm more flexible than before. Next question is , when I'm at day 6 or 9 after I take food while omad ,will I go to ketosis faster when I'm on continuous fast one meal a day? I think maybe after few days of fasting there will be not enough glycogen storage so I will be burning fat faster after 8 hours of intake of food.
I always loved food so much... for me is a struggle to fast. Food brings comfort. Sometimes I eat just because it feels good to eat while watching my favorite youtubers. Well, the benefits of fasting are so great that is worth trying.
I completely relate. IF has changed my life. I wish I had discovered its benefits many years ago. However, I still struggle sometimes with eating for comfort/pleasure during my eating window. It's a journey.
I've always tried to eat healthy, exercise/weight lift, but my genetics were catching up to me. Both parents were on bp and cholesterol meds by their 30's. Even with my efforts, cholesterol was creeping up, and bp was borderline hypertensive. Started intermittent fasting, and trained down to one healthy meal a day before 7pm, and everything changed. Cholesterol and bp dropped to teenager levels, and weight is slowly coming down, I feel so awake all the time too - I didn't realize how tired I was. I can actually see the effects of my weight lifting since starting fasting too. This is it y'all.
I love how when I am fasting I have crazy energy and can really focus. And somehow I always come back to this video on CZcams. Maybe to remember myself that it is ok to be in such a g9od and "crazy" fasting mode.
I have been eating only once a day for 15yrs, right after I moved to Florida from Cleveland, Ohio, to do roofing repairs/etc .due to the 4 hurricanes that ravaged Florida. It wasn't motivated by health concerns! It was that I got Nauseous,and Lethargic when I ate lunch do to the heat!.my body started to get used to the dietary change, I found that if I only ate dinner after I took an hour to cool down,that I had more energy the next day at work! My cells in my body became much more efficient,yes, I lost weight,friends were getting concerned that there was something wrong with me! I've been staying with it ever since! I have always been thin, I am still at my high school wrestling weight at 138lbs.at 63 yrs.old! And I can still do cartwheels! I never get sick,thru the Pandemic,I have not even caught a sniffle.
Man, the mind is so powerful! We can talk ourselves into any kind of illness, if we worry about it all the time. Been there, done that. I do find fasting to be easy and I feel so good. I’ve only done a couple days at a time, and mostly do one meal a day. My issue is finding food to keep my weight up. I don’t want to lose weight.
❤💚 Its amazing how fast the body gets used to fasting. Over the past 2 years I've done up to 5 day water and dry fasts. But lately for the past 9 months I fast once a week for 36 hours and I also don't eat between 6 pm and 6am every night. It was not intentional. It just became part of my routine. My body said after 6 no need for food. Often even at 4pm my body says enough; done! Affect: major weight loss, self-esteem, confidence, self control, and self discipline. 💚❤
For some reason this works for me too. Sometimes i stop eating at 4pm,but more regularly it’s 6pm. I usually eat my meal close to noon. Before noon I’m getting my fluids in.
I did read something years ago that said if you were trying to lose weight not to eat anything after 6pm. So it makes sense to me. I don't understand anyone on a diet that eats a meal after 6pm it just doent work for me. I think everthing in moderation. I also think fastening is good for your will power and self control. I did put weight on during lockdown just from eating junk in the evening. I'm not normally like that. So did a fast for about a week. Also work out at home. List 11bls so far. It's been 3 weeks , im gonna do another fast to give me another kick start. As the weight lose has slowed down. I'm not hungry for junk food at all but that week I did the fast omg the first few days I was craving those junk foods in the evening. I just don't want them anymore and before I started that 1st fast I stopped having them in the house. I don't even miss that crap now. If your wanting to lose weight exercise is key with fastening
Yes! Carnivore works!! I highly recommend it for anyone who can't get a diagnosis but has digestive pains or even chronic inflammation of any sort. At the very least, it gives your body a break and could help it heal. I'm glad it showed up in this talk!
I'm 7 days into only eating once every 24hrs. Day one is hard. But everyday after is so much easier. And energy and function comes back, I'm losing weight instantly. I'm feeling great
In training as a Prevention Specialist, I learned about “state-dependent learning”. Using the example of how one learns to dance in public only after consuming alcohol, one can expect to require relearning to feel comfortable dancing in a sober state.
He validated my theory about eating certain foods in season AND eating your ancestoral foods. My ancestor's are Aztec; so the other day I googled what they ate. I starting consuming their foods an, herbs, and fasting etc and I feel better
I am White and married a man from Mexico. When I started making nothing but Mexican food in the house and ate tortillas, rice, and, beans almost nightly I started to gain a lot of weight. I ate tons of carbs and junk food before, but I think my background may be what made me gain tons of weight vs other people who are used to eating a lot of tortillas with dinner and had their ancestors have the same diet. My husband and his brother seriously eat like 10 corn tortillas at every sitting!
@@sarahcarrizales9759 I agree. If you already don't know your ancestry roots, I would look for what they consumed 100 years ago. Mexican food today isn't the same as it was 100-years ago. It can be unhealthy, but there are lots of ways to make it healthy.
Fasting is a perfectly natural healthy thing to do. I did a period of time fasting everyday until 4pm and then didn't eat again after 6.30. I lost 30 pounds in 3 months and felt better than when I eat 3 meals a day!
A year ago I started listening to Rogan. I got burnt out w/his material, then onto his buddy Aubrey, found him inspiring then I found Tom and dammit Tom, you ask some damned good questions. I love what you're doing Tom...and the guests you have on, unparalleled. 👏🏽
Tom, I’m new to you and love your stillness during this interview! It really honors the interviewee, giving him the time and space to tell his story. Thank you for the valuable content and the mature way it’s presented.
I was going to say the same thing but you beat me to it. He is an excellent listener. His questions support the fact that he is listening and not trying to just get through a set of pre-written questions. Well done
lol. Throw me in a dark room and i can tell which direction when i go to sleep. I will keep toss and turn until i find East =)) Amazing how our body can do.
This guy is one of the best interviewers I've observed so far. He has opinions and yet is open-minded to a new unorthodox suggestion, gives the right space to his interviewees to talk, does his fuckin research well, and therefore asks legit questions.
I am going on to three months of doing omad and the truth is I feel great. I have never been so positive in my life. I had issues with weight all my life. I have lost alot of weight. I feel great. I think many people do not understand and see how much we eat and how powerful the human body is.
I luv Mike Mutzel!! I've been following High Intensity Health for years. HIH literally helped get my health on track! Tom and Mike onset together?? Amazing!
I eat once a day and everyone tells me how unhealthy this is. However most of these people are over weight. In my opinion, as a society we constantly over eat forcing our bodies to be in continuous digestion.
There was a video about a scientist slash product creator in Japan. He made stuff like markers n notebooks that write under water. He only eats 1 meal a day and sleeps 4 hours a day. It was incredibly interesting. His 1 meal of choice was a curry rice sorta thing he made that had stuff added to cover his vitamin mineral etc needs. Was a good watch
specially some people really push others to eat .. i hate those behaviors
Those people criticizing you are alwayyyyyys overweight
Well, I’m underweight and exercising gives me migraines. . ,
@Jennifer Raymond: I find that people that always give unsolicited advice usually have absolutely no idea about what they are actually giving advice on, and if it's about diet and health, they are usually extremely unhealthy.
My mom started eating once a day and cured her psoriasis that she's been battling for 25 years. To say she is extremely happy is an absolute understatement.

What’s her diet like? What’s her restrictions?
@@ksweetist She just eats normal. Eggs toast or sandwich and veggies . Fasting for 12 hours or so. She has dinner around 6 or so and then doesn't eat until lunch time the next day. She eats lunch and dinner so maybe she eats twice a day with the long fast over night. Her skin has totally healed and she's the happiest Mom in the world.
can i ask what is that one meal she eats per day? and what time does she eat it?
@@patriciad8709 she answered that question in the comment above yours
It's funny when people say fasting is unhealthy or you're starving yourself. The more I learn about fasting the more I'm convinced It's one of the healthiest things you can do for yourself.
Have you ever fasted yourself? If so, did you take K and Mg supplements or multivitamins?
I've been wanting to fast for so long now but I'm a little warry of doing it without the proper supplementation.
@@astronautadejakku9699 you can do the sea salt water and if needed it's also good the use a good electrolyte powder with no sugar and additives. However you can do a fast without the electrolytes if you want you will still benefit greatly from it. I've only done a 24 hour fast in terms of prolonged fasts and I just added some salt to water and drank teas and stuff
@@astronautadejakku9699 in short I'd say it would be optimal to use electrolytes or salt water but I wouldn't worry about it hugely if you don't because as I said you will still benefit greatly. Just ease your way in so it's easier for you
It's silly cause technically we're still eating internally without ingesting food. Autophagy literally means self eating.
dont let anyone with an ED see it
I did a 24 hour fast recently and I was planning on eating when I got home about that 24 hour point. I just decided that I would go to sleep and extend my fast so I ended up going 34 ish hours instead. I will openly admit that I used to be controlled by food and that I can see how most people are addicted to food and food habits.
Your bang on, its the junk food and snacks I got addicted to during lockdown. I put on over 2 stone , I wasn't eating this crap b 4 in fact I was an intermittent eater. I went through a bad NDE in 2019, I was dealing with everything really well and bam convid. Lockdown. I hardly went out or exercised and in the evening would sit alone watching TV eatting crips and ice cream biscuits just junk. Not ever night but most nights. Anyway I new I'd gained weight 🤪 but was denying it untill I stepped on my scales.omg I was shocked. I'm 5ft tall and it's not got on my body , my back has been really bad . Since losing a stone in weight my back feels a lot better. My chest pains have been better also. I have Angina also. I surpose I want to get back into my nice jeans and cloths but my health was the first thing. I'm now going on another fast. I could live of the fat round my waist lol. It works . It's good for your health just cut out the junk
It's amazing how we once think we can't starve for an hour or for a minute, but we we are now able to control ourselves 😌.

I just told my dad yesterday that the only way I can control my anxiety without meds is to not eat. It gives me a calming feeling. Sometimes the body needs a break. It's ok to fast.
Wow that's interesting.
Be careful. Using food or the absence of food to control your mood is dangerous!
You don’t want to develop an eating disorder.
Start slowly until.your body adjusts and drink lots of water
Dude that’s how eating disorders start. This is why a lot of people don’t eat and end up with anorexia and I speak from experience.
Yes fast!!!
I started intermittent fasting and eating greens and meat. I eat apples walnuts and sardines too.
I’ve never felt better, it’s amazing .
Lol American diet will kill you.
I've now been fasting 19-20 hours per 24 hrs. For the last 5 weeks. It's helped so much with my depression and helped me lose 1 stone in weight. I will continue with this.
I accidentally lost 50 pounds by switching up to one meal a day when my work schedule changed to afternoons and nights. I was sleeping in through breakfast and would just have a cup of coffee after waking. Wouldn't be hungry so started skipping lunch and having a meal regularly around 7 p.m. in the afternoon. I'm 50 years old and holding steady at my old high school weight for the first time in my life and feel great. The only downside was having to replace my entire wardrobe with clothes that fit. Came to that conclusion when I was standing in line at the grocery store and my old shorts fell down around my ankles in front of everyone and I said, "Screw this, we're going shopping for new clothes."

ive been fasting for a year - 20-22 hours a day, sometimes 48 hours maybe once a week. Eat a good meal most days and ensure im getting all the right nutrition,. I lost 60kg, reversed diabetes type 2, and when combined with exercise I got off anti depression pills. brain is much sharper and all my indigestion problems are long gone. Its a great way of taking care of yourself, especially when you study the cell regeneration and replacement and overall way the body works. Once you do it for a period of time, you never get hungry. Everyone overeats - I was guilty as anyone else.
@Sandy Shines drink a lot of water, have variety of fruits and vegetables, small portions of meat you can try fish, and the most important be conscious of what are you feeling, don't let your body stays in automatic mode
Well done, you've done amazing, I hope your using it as a lifestyle change
That's great but aren't we supposed to go "potty" everyday? If we don't have food in us for lets say two days how can we get the yuckies out or will there be no yuckies because no food?
Im doing that now fasting like you said about 22 hrs a day... unfortunately I just started so im in the angry phase right now... angry bcoz I wish I could say its not making me feel better so I can eat but having to admit that after only 5 days I feel great and I want to keep feeling great... I know I got a ways to go but I think im really going to make it this time the benefits are to good not to...
@@big2small526 keep up the good work and let us know the progress 👍
Just completed a 15 day water fast. Lost 30lbs from 376 and BOY did it make a huge difference. It gave me the paradigm shift I needed to start another two more weeks.
Good job 👏. I'm only 2 days in and inspired to go on
Just a word from experience... It's ok to do that for the first time when you have a lot of weight to lose, but you will lose muscle too, which in turn will slow your metabolism, so try to do 2 - 3 day fasts and have enough protein and do strength training so you build back muscle and stay fit and light, otherwise you could yoyo yourself back to the weight you lost
@@lucringo6798 I’m also on my second day! Well as of right now I’ve been 54 hrs fasting… I’ve done 2 days before, I’m trying to do the 72 hrs this time or maybe a little more let’s see how it goes, but so far feeling good!
You can do it! 💪🏼
Amazing really I'm so happy that you cut a big difference and I wish you don't get diverted by what people says around about how weak we look or appearance let it be and continue cutting as much without going back to past. I just started so don't forget you guys are my motivation so I hope you don't deviate.
Great job!! The longest water fast I've completed is 15 days too! It is an enlightening experience and gives you a huge mental, health, and spiritual reset. It helped break food addiction to refined carbs, sugar, and binge eating. Be careful with the refeed and ease into it.
Awesome info....I'm a recovering alcoholic...been off the vodka for 2 yrs thanks to these YT vids and my desire to get my life back...I took a chance , tried keto w/fasting....cravings for the booze diminished...
I’ve suffered with eczema/allergies my entire life. The less I eat, the better my skin and asthma are. Still blows my mind. Anyone else?
I've cured my eczema with long water fasts. Started with 1-day and gradually built it to 7-days. Now, I am eczema free. :-)
Yeah same here. Exactly same.
i used to have really bad eczema on my face and now im carnivore, its all gone
I did. I realized that I was allergic to soy, dairy, eggs and shellfish. I had to abstain from these foods and 1 year worth of acupuncture got rid of it.
YES! I have dermatitis on my face but my face has cleared since I stopped eating crap, I eat a small meal and maybe one or two green drinks that I make at home. So yes the less I eat my skin is also MUCH better! It’s crazy.
This new lifestyle has cured me. No more IBS, muscle and joint pain, no more bone pain.
I am learning self control. Food does not own me no more! 🙌
I eat to live. I don't live to eat.
You aren't supposed to eat alone either. Unless you live alone
Wow! I want to change this...food is my vice 😒
Hallelujah!
Felt like that on my 2 days fast as well.
The only problem is, when you start to eat normally again, it's hard to keep this mindset up.
@@evab.6240 then atleast eat in an 8 hour window in between longer fasts.
Extended fasting will do more to improve your health than anything else. You start to understand your food addictions, your mental acuity gets sharper, you lose FAT rapidly while maintaining MUSCLE & increasing Growth Hormone levels.
It's probably the most important practice I've brought into my life.
Same here, people tend to believe you constantly need food and drinks to keep your energy going. This is just a reprogramming phase, when your body starts living of fat reserves it actually is the best fule for the brain. With fasting I could also see skin improvents, and a lot of other health benefits.
I was in a keto group that had long since devolved into a prolonged extended fasting group and everyone in the group looked very haggard and aged? I would think it was just being thin and not having fat on their faces but I am medically underweight and don’t look this way.
Does anyone understand the mechanism of this? My health and vanity are at war. I want to stay optimally healthy but do not want to look weathered and drawn in exchange. Perhaps taking collagen whilst “fasting” I think at least some were dry fasting.
I know this is correlation and only one group but they truly looked haggard. I love the look of being underweight and this was beyond that it was something being lost in elasticity and tone and it really put me off that path
What about your muscles though? And your body taking from the stores that you have and depleting them?? Can you educate me on this?? Since when I fast it’s what I like typically but I also notice that I lose muscle in certain areas. And keep fat in the same areas.. but I intermittently fast almost every day.
Will this help with hypertrophy etc? Guess we were taught we need to eat six small meals a day to maintain or to grow muscle
@@erindianacathey96 You are gonna lose fat all over your body but some parts are gonna hold more fat than others. Its gonna take getting really lean to get those parts that hold the most fat more noticeably lean. As far as the muscle sometimes we think we have more muscle than we think but when we start to lose weight it turns out you might not have as much muscle there as you thought.
My grandmother is 84 and stronger and healthier than most of us younger ones, especially my mothers siblings and that age group. She has stretched and done yoga before America thought it cool. She has exercised her entire life and lived off most of the food she grew. She also said that sometimes she will cut out an entire food group for a period of time. She said she lost weight and felt better. Once she felt done for the time period she would slowly re-introduce the food group to help her system digest it easier. I think that is something interesting.
Wow that's really cool. I need to start doing yoga. I love eating leafy greens and fruit! Also, I love water as well. I'm going to give yoga a try!
...cuz they lived through the great depression where fasting was a necessity. Now they made hunger a dietary fad.

Based on my experience, I think there is no need to complicate your diet. I are normal, didn't do any specific diet l, just ate proper meals and tried to put my calories between 800 to about max 1200. I didn't do any keto or vegan or any other sort of diet, I was just consistent with my fasting and calories intake. Also I didn't eat cheese and avoided all deep fried foods,drank only water no alcohol, no juice just water. That's was just it

I did 90 hours fasting my first time and it cured me off caffeine addiction, and sugar in one go. Losing 15 lbs was a plus. My acne disappeared as well. I will give it 10nout 10 review
@Dachs & Rottweiler surprisingly I did train on my days of fast. Mind you it was light weights and I had a lot in tank than I expected on cardio. No I did not lose muscle it is just 3 days not 21 days. And even I seen people who did 21 they loss were majority fat. The ones that didn't exercise during lost some muscle but the ones that did didn't lose as muchbas you would expect it
losing muscle is a cope and excuse to stay a disgusting lard ass. just stop eating and stfu

I have an unhealthy relationship with food.
I eat when I'm stressed 😩.
Working nights as a nurse...I am aways stressed
Today is going to be my first day of fasting and I'm already anxious about being hungry during my shift.
It's going to take me a while to change my mindset for sure
Green tea will help you ease your mind and not be so aware of being hungry. The personal satisfaction of having fasted, and knowing how well you’re treating your body from the inside out, are so rewarding. Keep going. You can do it. ♥️
@@carmenrenee5146 I appreciate that
Appetite suppressants combined with cognitive behavioral therapy (from a therapist or even YT videos) will work perfectly for you!
I am also a nurse and I find working night shift is the perfect time to fast. Start at night 6pm,11pm or 12am. I will usually have my last meal before the start of my night shift. That way the first few hours your distracted, and then hopefully sleeping. The hardest part is the first 36 hours. Don’t go into the Lunchroom at work. Stay away from others while they’re eating. Watch a quick YT video for motivation. I’ve fasted during work many times, you will be fine. In fact, I believe I loose more weight during fast because I am active. Get good quality electrolyte drops and add to water to avoid arrhythmias or palpitations due to withdrawal. Currently on a 10 day water fast (longest has been 5 days previously) I am 4 days in and have lost 10 pounds. Starting weight 192.
@@cherrysOnTOP100 do you have any recommendations on electrolyte drops?
The issue that I noticed with fasting is that people try to make it too scientific, too precise and too strict. For me it's best to keep it simple. Most days that I work out I eat 2 meals which lets me fast for about 18 or so hours. The days I don't work out I eat one meal and sometimes I don't eat. Depends how I feel. On the weekends I usually fast for 30+ hours but if I feel hungry, I'll eat. It's that simple. Yes, sometimes I decide to fast for a certain period of time, but it's not a religion. It doesn't have to be every day. Your bodies are designed for variety. Not just in food but in when you eat. And everyone's body is different. So, keep it simple. Eat when you're really hungry. Fast often, but not too long. And for F#### sake WORK OUT. It's amazing when you get good at it.
Very good advice!
V well said
Totally agree. I imagine that's how we used to eat a long time ago: some day plentiful, some days sparse. Sometimes days a lot of physical work, some days a lot of sitting around.
Makes total sense

It has taken me decades to catch up all the wonderful information that is provided through the Internet and through the books that I read. I was severely traumatized growing up in a family where my parents were emotionally dysfunctional. The result was I had a stutter that caused both myself and my teachers to think that I was probably stupid. That was 20 years ago. I have developed confidence that has taken the stuttering tongue away! So I’m thankful to anyone that can provide me with information that is cutting edge technology. Thank you Tom!
That's such a beautiful testimony!
Thank you for sharing Alan :)

Sounded like 1 week fast, 4x a year. So every 3 months. I've fasted 3-4 days twice over the past 2 years and noticed great health benefits (cognitive, skin, digestion, etc). I'm sure a 1 week fast every 3 months does wonders for health and longevity.
Working out changed my energy.
But eating right, changed my mind.
That's awesome! I tell my clients this all the time. Good for you!
BRILLIANT! So nicely said!
Energy is gained while sleeping in your bedroom and not dining table. Also, there's a deep connection between your stomach and mind. Health depends on the following in order:
Mind (Positive thoughts) > Sleep > Food.
I eat once a day around 1pm sometimes I'll have a smoothie in the am but after that I eat once around 1pm and I'm done. People tell me I have an eating disorder I tell them it works for me and I feel better for it. Great post dude 👌
Me too! My time is 1 and that's it. Nothing but just water and green tea until the next day. Only if I know I'm getting too hungry I would eat at noon.
36 hours of fasting for me is within my comfort as well. After that point I can feel my stress levels elevate and I start feeling pretty uncomfortable. I have been doing IF now for 3 months and lost about 10 kg and I only have about 5 more kg to go to my ideal weight, so I don't have any big reasons to go beyond 36 hours of fasting anyway. Good luck to everyone doing IF! :)
Thanks so much for having me on, Tom and Team! Was an honor. Tom is such a great interviewer :-)
You were awesome as well. Tom is great as well, but he needs people like you to be the outstanding interviewer that he is. Thanks guys.
Recently started watching your content on CZcams Mike, really awesome and inspiring to see you on this show and building your platform...Much success to you and thank you!
You were great Mike.Thanks!
thank u bro
High Intensity Health you are great. That was the show I wanted to see. Both of you together in a show. When I see one of you I think of the other because you both have similarities in personality and perspectives.
In the spring and summer we eat from sprouting plants, flowers, etc in the winter we should eat tubers and other underground nutrition. During the winter the energy from the plants is stored in the roots, etc once the spring arrives the energy and nutrients begin to travel from the roots to the stems and leaves.
Excellent
Many Christians have been doing this, fasting, for generations. Not necessarily for a health benefit but for clarity, sacrifice and to draw closer to God. It's not random but there is an encouragement to pray, worship and listen during those times that you would be eating. Also, it's done at certain periods of the year and done corporately, ie the entire church body.
Just playing with Keto as a means of weight loss. 5 stone overweight. I am learning a lot from youtube. Dr Berg, and guests on your show. You are opening up thoughts and encouragement for me to gain the healthiest life option for me. I don't worry about living forever...I have that promise from scripture. I feed on Jesus in my heart and have peace as a gift from His sacrifice. I am on it now! Eternal life with a transformed body for eternity and now I'm able to get out of the body of fat flesh and into a wholesome body for life. So exciting. THANKS
Happy Easter to you. 🙏🤗
Hi. Have a look at dr becky gillaspy. She really explains everything in the most simple way. I am almost 3 stone down now with 2 to go and finding it the easiest way ever. Im 60 and a life time dieter. This time i know i have it sorted.

Oh, and I took off ten pounds. That ain't water weight, either: I've been drinking water like crazy to deal with the hunger. Most of it was pure burnt fat. Broke thru a plateau, and figured out some interesting things about my body and health.

Food is our enemy
I'm on my day 4, so I am very impressed with fasting. TY for this. Spread the word. Eating is overrated.
Eating is overrated lol i love you your so right! im on day 3
True. I find it funny that people's first thought during epidemics or snow storms etc is quick! stock up on food. You can go quite awhile without food. There is so much food in America. I find most people don't care about neighbors and others like they use to. But boy if they think someone might not have food they will contribute even to complete strangers. As if food is the most important thing. Especially a bunch of processed unhealthy food.
I agree!!!
So is water overrated.. why don't you stop both and see how far you get
@@TheFirstCalled.60AD a human can go with out food about "3 weeks" without food, obviously there are instances where people have gone longer. but you cannot go more than 4-5 days without water. keep in mind that historically people didn't eat all day long OR everyday. So I believe that's what they mean by overrated.
We can’t underestimate the subconscious connection with our body and minds. What we BELIEVE is so important!
You're right lady. Disease 1st shows up in your subtle body (Aura) and then manifests in the physical body. Science still has catch up to do.
Brilliant! I am 59 y o and have never been that fit and I was an athlete in the past!!! Keto, fasting, HIIT, quality sleep, and so on. What was the main change? -> My state of mind: consistency, attitude, being grateful, and embracing abundance!
I love the feeling of not having a full stomach. I like to eat in the evening and be free during the day. I try to have an empty stomach after 2 hours so I never stuff myself. I usually have great energy and I’ve never felt better.

“We take up so much of our mental bandwidth” (thinking about eating). SO true.
Sadly, yes!
Another reason to fast😊
1. i think what i gonna eat
2. i think where i'll go
3. i eat
4. i cant do shit for like 1 hour minimum
one meal takes 2-3 hours everyday, that's why fast food and browsing while eating is popular
It's obsessive and addictive with most people. It's like people who are clearly not starving are remembering starving on a cellular level. There is no reason to be so consumed with food in today's society. It is getting on par with gluttony for some.
@@denisblack9897 yas , its make sense
I have fasted all day everyday all of my adult life. Although I did not know that I was fasting I was just doing what made my body happy. I have always been active and my work has always included lots of activity. I eat supper and eat whatever I wanted for snacking at night. I never called it or knew I was fasting. I just always considered myself a nocturnal feeder! I have always been thin, healthy and had great muscle tone. I was told so often that it was wrong & would make my body think it was being starved and get fat. That has never happened. The only exercise I have ever done consistently is Yoga. Every time I tried to eat breakfast or lunch like people told me I had to do. I would feel loss of energy & feel lazy. I am 56 years old and I have recently cut my sugar intake because I ate a lot of sugar. There is so much research about the harmful effects of sugar. But that is the only adjustment I have made. So, my theory remains listen to your body and what works positively for you.
I have been eating one meal a day or OMAD and in about 6 months I have lost 53 pounds!! I was pre diabetic, not anymore. My blood pressure was always high, not anymore. And my energy is never low, just on the first days because I was adapting

Marlene Holley the only parts I see are “Food isn’t my life - I eat to live” Quite the conundrum ya got there but I get the point this paradoxical statement is attempting to make 🤪 I’d say its a large part of your day if it’s what sustains your life 🤷🏻♀️
The advantage of keto for me was how much it illuminated my overall relationship to food. Carbs and sugar and constant insulin spikes were emotional connections. So when I started eating healthier and fasting, I began dealing with deeper personal issues and developed the self respect to continue living in an overall healthier manner.
This is what I’m finding too!! You read my mind!
I have been doing IF for 2 weeeks now and it has already improved how I feel. I used to have migraine attacks atleast twice a week, which affected my work and life in total. I thought it's because i do shift work but the headaches persisted even when I stayed on days. Now, I haven't had a single attack despite my funny schedule at work. I am thankful that I come across this information.

My daughter is 8 and she hardly ever has breakfast. She’s just not hungry. I used to get frustrated as I wanted her to have a good breakfast and not be hungry before lunch at school. But she’s actually not hungry before lunch. Soni don’t force her to have breakfast. She listens to her body, and I’m OK with that.

Although i agree. Kids rarely want to eat. But they need it, because they're still growing and developing, they need way more food than one might think.
Fasting, intermediate fasting etc is for adults.
@@evab.6240 That's bullshit. Lots of kids and people in general hate breakfast because the wants to fast intuitively...
@@cryptochris5336It could be construed as being neglectful, not ordering your kids to eat breakfast but I think at 8 if the daughter really wanted to eat she could make it herself, and maybe it would just create conflict if it was a forced thing.
It wasn't the way my generation did things but maybe different strokes for different folks?
Good for you! I hated eating breakfast as a child. It made me feel nauseous and I couldn’t properly wake up.
My parents fought me with it for years.
By 15, I was doing it my way, and now at age 59, I believe that listening to my body was smart.

Watching this almost 3 years later is such a good reminder about how many of these principles are still true!
A lot of people (not all) who have a very unhealthy lifestyle definitely do it unconsciously to self harm. Many start doing so much better having a good diet, losing weight, working out to an exaggerated degree sometimes. Then fall off the wagon when they start to feel better because their mental health issues makes them self sabotage. Like a way to tell themselves that they don’t deserve good things to happen to them. I truly believe that if the mental health issues/ trauma are not treated also, the good changes in lifestyle are less likely to be permanent.
Another thought I have is that when these mental issues are not addressed people hide behind their healthy diet. Hear me out.
There are a lot of people who as teenagers are addicted to drugs. Then stop doing said drugs but now they develop an eating disorder, then become super focused on supplements, etc. People just continue to get addicted to different things. They just switch addictions. In my humble opinion it should start with learning healthy coping skills, healing the trauma while also eating healthier and sleeping enough. I’m working on that.
When I was doing OMAD my skin was clearer, and I had so much energy. I'm getting back to it

@James East For sure James, good name for real for real 👍
Apparently adrenaline kicks in...at 36 hours of fasting I felt great, energy all day. My morning blood sugar was in the low 80’s but then kicked up to 110 after a walk, my liver was releasing glucose for energy, very fascinating.
I’m dealing with type 2 diabetes, keto diet got me most of the way to lowering my blood sugar into the normal range and fasting is so easy because i’m not having carbohydrate withdrawals.
I mean, you DO need food to function! lol
You just don't need as much as most people think to function normally.
Spoken like a person with an eating disorder. Of course you need food to function!
Hunger is the body telling you to eat!
@@digitallocations1423 False. Hunger is your body's conditioning to meal expectancy. Leptin and ghrelin control your hunger. You can condition yourself to change the frequency of the hormone being released.
OMAD works for me, at age 57! Cured me of fatty liver, lowered my blood sugar and cholesterol, as well.
I just completed 3 days fast now and I have to say it really works in 3 days I lost 4 kgs. It's really hard to overcome the cravings especially during night but my goal is to loose weight so I see myself in the mirror and remind why I started the fast. I hope I can make 2 more days.
Don't get too excited about initial weight loss while exhausting your glycogen stores when fasting. For every glycogen molecule, each is bound to 3 water molecules which are released when the glucose in the glycogen is freed. It is not until you have depleted most of your glycogen that you actually start using free fatty acids for fuel or ketone creation. That is when the true fat loss occurs.
@@garzascreek Great, I have been fasting since 4 days I'm doing OMAD , and taking small portion of carbs , my question is , will the glycogen get stored at this moment when I'm already fasting 23 hours Period. Now I feel like my floating is bit gone and I'm more flexible than before. Next question is , when I'm at day 6 or 9 after I take food while omad ,will I go to ketosis faster when I'm on continuous fast one meal a day? I think maybe after few days of fasting there will be not enough glycogen storage so I will be burning fat faster after 8 hours of intake of food.
I always loved food so much... for me is a struggle to fast. Food brings comfort. Sometimes I eat just because it feels good to eat while watching my favorite youtubers. Well, the benefits of fasting are so great that is worth trying.
Camilla, please give it a try!! Spiritual speaking!Peace and🙏💐⌚
me too. Food is comfort and love and nurture to my mind. Perhaps it works if you can look at practicing fasting as a little self love?
I completely relate. IF has changed my life. I wish I had discovered its benefits many years ago. However, I still struggle sometimes with eating for comfort/pleasure during my eating window. It's a journey.
Fast food makes me feel like shit gross 😝
I've always tried to eat healthy, exercise/weight lift, but my genetics were catching up to me. Both parents were on bp and cholesterol meds by their 30's. Even with my efforts, cholesterol was creeping up, and bp was borderline hypertensive. Started intermittent fasting, and trained down to one healthy meal a day before 7pm, and everything changed. Cholesterol and bp dropped to teenager levels, and weight is slowly coming down, I feel so awake all the time too - I didn't realize how tired I was. I can actually see the effects of my weight lifting since starting fasting too. This is it y'all.
I love how when I am fasting I have crazy energy and can really focus. And somehow I always come back to this video on CZcams. Maybe to remember myself that it is ok to be in such a g9od and "crazy" fasting mode.
I have been eating only once a day for 15yrs, right after I moved to Florida from Cleveland, Ohio, to do roofing repairs/etc .due to the 4 hurricanes that ravaged Florida. It wasn't motivated by health concerns! It was that I got Nauseous,and Lethargic when I ate lunch do to the heat!.my body started to get used to the dietary change, I found that if I only ate dinner after I took an hour to cool down,that I had more energy the next day at work! My cells in my body became much more efficient,yes, I lost weight,friends were getting concerned that there was something wrong with me! I've been staying with it ever since! I have always been thin, I am still at my high school wrestling weight at 138lbs.at 63 yrs.old! And I can still do cartwheels! I never get sick,thru the Pandemic,I have not even caught a sniffle.
Man, the mind is so powerful! We can talk ourselves into any kind of illness, if we worry about it all the time. Been there, done that. I do find fasting to be easy and I feel so good. I’ve only done a couple days at a time, and mostly do one meal a day. My issue is finding food to keep my weight up. I don’t want to lose weight.
❤💚 Its amazing how fast the body gets used to fasting. Over the past 2 years I've done up to 5 day water and dry fasts. But lately for the past 9 months I fast once a week for 36 hours and I also don't eat between 6 pm and 6am every night. It was not intentional. It just became part of my routine. My body said after 6 no need for food. Often even at 4pm my body says enough; done!
Affect: major weight loss, self-esteem, confidence, self control, and self discipline. 💚❤
For some reason this works for me too. Sometimes i stop eating at 4pm,but more regularly it’s 6pm. I usually eat my meal close to noon. Before noon I’m getting my fluids in.
Your bowels and digestion get much more better and timely and easier.
I did read something years ago that said if you were trying to lose weight not to eat anything after 6pm. So it makes sense to me. I don't understand anyone on a diet that eats a meal after 6pm it just doent work for me. I think everthing in moderation. I also think fastening is good for your will power and self control. I did put weight on during lockdown just from eating junk in the evening. I'm not normally like that. So did a fast for about a week. Also work out at home. List 11bls so far. It's been 3 weeks , im gonna do another fast to give me another kick start. As the weight lose has slowed down. I'm not hungry for junk food at all but that week I did the fast omg the first few days I was craving those junk foods in the evening. I just don't want them anymore and before I started that 1st fast I stopped having them in the house. I don't even miss that crap now. If your wanting to lose weight exercise is key with fastening
Yes! Carnivore works!! I highly recommend it for anyone who can't get a diagnosis but has digestive pains or even chronic inflammation of any sort. At the very least, it gives your body a break and could help it heal. I'm glad it showed up in this talk!

I am going on to three months of doing omad and the truth is I feel great. I have never been so positive in my life. I had issues with weight all my life. I have lost alot of weight. I feel great. I think many people do not understand and see how much we eat and how powerful the human body is.
I luv Mike Mutzel!! I've been following High Intensity Health for years. HIH literally helped get my health on track! Tom and Mike onset together?? Amazing!
You're too kind, Katharine! Thanks so much for that. Hope you enjoyed the chat!
Thank you, Mike. Sincerely. I've always appreciate how open minded and non-dogmatic your content is. It's life changing information.

I not starving. I’m fasting. Gods word is my food. I feel great. Day 17 of 40. Down 27 lbs.
Amen! are you only consuming water alone for 40 days?
Longest fast I’ve done was 63 hours and boy did I feel so much better. I try to do this a couple times a month to clean the body and mind.
