Hi Steve, Curious on what books you’re reading. Do you read one book at a time or more? Trying to get more reading in myself for self improvement. Got couple books now myself and others standing by. Just seeing other tips you can share. Thought better to ask on this channel. Thanks.

Thank you Steve. I was going back thru some of your old videos (pre-my-keto days) and came across this about citric acid. Have used it in the washer but didn't know all the other uses. I have tried lime-away and bleach to get rid of some of my water stains by my water dispenser and sink with little success (and lots of caustic fumes). This worked great! Anytime you'd like to pass on "hacks" like this, I'm glad to have them. Thank you again.

Did you take B12? When I long fast I always take B12 and when I don't my fatigue increases.

Hey steve, I fasted again this week as was inspired by your ext fast. Just crossed 3 day mark. I've had 2 glucose readings lately between 50-60... both times i felt hungry & a bit wonky (need more electrolytes)... however my ketones were higher in the 5s & 6s. I've not seen those #s before. Electrolytes worked to fix wonkiness. I was feeling great today after a massage, then went to Costco in the heat. 😮 It's blazing hot 🔥 here. By the time i got home, wasn't feeling great again. 63 glucose. So...just the outdoor heat stress takes me down while ext fasting. No working out for me! Overall, i feel pretty good, hope to continue to "take out the trash" in my body. ♻️. I like how you document your journey - introspective about the good/bad/ugly. One thing thats been weirding me out is my ketone breath. The higher the fasting ketones....the weirder it is. 🙊. Oh.... I've lost 3lbs in 3 days.

I am on hour 48 of my latest fast Steve. Probably going at least 7 days.

Amazing detail. I admire your organization skills. Very informative. And I always wondered what men did "in that situation". Thanks. 👌🏼😂

Thx guys for filming this and sharing it with us.

How often do you do the prolonged fast?

Thanks for the update and detailed information. Best wishes on your continued success and health. I just had this thought: May the odds be ever in your favor! Live long and prosper! And may The Force be with you, always. Hope you reach your health goals and live a long and healthy life. You've been an inspiration for all of us. When it comes to gum, I'd say chew it, and spit out all the juices if your in doubt.

Congratulations! I have questions for you and if the answers can be found in other videos, feel free to direct me! I had not been viewing your fasting videos because I was just recovering from a bout of covid, and decided to wait for your results. My husband is traveling for work one week in August and I thought I would give fasting a try. I do plan to go back and watch your prep videos a week or so prior. That said, my questions. How often each day did you have electrolytes or are the amounts you noted in this video what you did the past ‘per day’? Second, is there a specific brand you recommend (my favorite is unflavored LMNT - I hate flavored drinks of any kind ….unless its a grapefruit martini). 😄 On that note, wondering if you had that vodka gimlet after you ended your fast?? Or do I need to wait for the refeed video? My longest fast to date has only been one day. Did you ease into fasting incrementally in the past? Not looking for you to tell me what to do because of the youtube police, but looking for what you had done previously. Also, I literally burst out laughing at the Homer Simpson face. 🤣

Your being cold may be a sign that your thyroid is acting up. You may need to take some iodine and selenium.If the sides of your neck at front are sore, thats a sign too.

I am just having my last bite and starting my newest fast at 6 pm. My longest was 40 days. Quite the experience. Looking forward to this open-ended one. I will keep you posted on this upcoming fast. TO BE CONTINUED...

No magnesium maybe?. Better than constipation, but i guess it depends on which side of this one is on.

So impressed. I could not. I don’t have the will power. I would say the diarrhea may have been from the epson salts if you drank large volumes of your snake juice. Unsure if magnesium malate would be gentler on the stomach.

I always feel cold while fasting. Jason Fung states that is due to continued insulin resistance.

I understand you are from Wisconsin do you know the definition of postmortem?

Even though it’s not the theme of this video, chuckling about the garbage disposal situation. Back to the fast though thanks for all insights.

Wow. 8 out of 100 committed suicide. That’s 8%. Seems awful high.

My love handles aren’t coming off as I desire as well. Everywhere else seems great. Granted, they have been getting smaller. I guess it just takes a lot of time, as they didn’t grow overnight to begin with.

Definitely bullfrog. We have them and the spring peepers that are melodious every spring.

My brain tells me to fast in the winter, the summer is for working hard and feasting, I usually do my 5 day fast in January. I always feel a spike in energy about 6 weeks after a long fast.

I used to be able to fast. I would do 4-5 days successfully. A couple of times a year. Unfortunately at 70, I developed type 2 diabetes. Bummer. Just turned 73. Diabetes was huge on my Mom’s side of the family. So many relatives deceased and currently living have diabetes. I’m actually healthier now because I eat a very low carb diet/ketoish diet. And exercise every day. My doctor kept insisting I try intermittent fasting to help with my A1c. So I did. Nope, fasting I’ve discovered, for me, raises my blood sugar. My A1c went up ^^^ after 3 months of intermittent fasting. I now know I have to eat within an hour of waking up, or my body does a glucose dump. So kudos to you and others who can fast. It resets the body, removes toxins and has many health benefits.

Finishing my 96 hour fast in about 7 hours. Feel good. Lost about 9 pounds. Been on carnivore for 2 weeks prior to the fast. Going to hop back on all meat for another 6 weeks before another 5 day fast in August.

You look better than I’ve ever seen you! And I don’t mean that in a negative way…. You look so happy and healthy and younger!!!

I'm in the middle of an unplanned fast. Will be 30+ hrs when that July 4th 🥩 steak hits my belly tomorrow. It kinda happened by accident this time. The last thing I ate was a ribeye & overate a touch...so my body told me to fast today. When I plan a fast, I struggle. I can't believe you fasted so long with stomach grumbles & cravings. 🎉. I fasted thru boiling a rotisserie chicken for 3 hrs (for broth/meat) and my husband frying 🥓 bacon. 😮 Ketone power.

I’m about to conclude a 10 day fast. The cotton mouth is real.

Hi Steve! I did a 60 day water only fast. Lost 20 lbs. Had a lot of revelations.

This channel rocks, so much useful information. Awesome work, Stevie!

WOW great info thanks Steve

Always interesting to hear your experiences. Thanks, Steve.

Steve, any idea why the BP spiked in the middle of the fast or any reason you researched which could cause this? Also, I feel your pain re: plumbing issues - seems replacing parts is continual 😂

Just watched the fasting video with the marathon runner, maybe following an outline would make for more organized content, but I enjoyed the smooth way you segwayed, referring to "a teaser"

Super nice guy

So interesting! Great results. Thank you for sharing.

Fantastic results and so productive

Congrats on completing your fast an being able to eat again. The diarrhea seems to be a curious side-effect. I've been deprived of food for a week and did not notice that symptom. I'm wondering if your large dose of Magnesium could have contributed to that, or if the withdrawal of dairy might have contributed. I can only imagine that a Wisconsinite without access to dairy might have severe withdrawal symptoms. 😜

Dont say postmortem. Well anyway, I practice extended fasting from a well fed ketogenic state. 3 to 5 days every 6 weeks or so. My wife and I eat one meal a day. We have been mostly keto since 1998. OMAD carnivore last 2 years. You covered sleep which is good. Its amazing how jacked up we get in a fasted state and then sleep great. If you dont feel really good as you described, it is time to stop. We fast mainly for autophagy.

I wonder if you also need some iodine.

The ketone numbers are interesting. The highest I have gotten in the past was 4.7 mmol/L (wasn’t doing an extended fast or anything special) and these numbers were out of the ordinary. I remember wondering at what point would I be transitioning in to ketoacidosis and if I should pull the rip cord. Unfortunately in the next day or two my appendix perforated so I’m not sure if that was the cause of my rising ketones.

amazing work...glad you hit your goal...

Will be trying a 3 day fast this month. Like you, planning it out to not be around a lot of food. Thanks for the ideas, plan and inspiration

I generally find that it takes about a week for me to see final weight results after a fast. I usually have a big initial drop (which is exciting), then the weight comes back up (which is discouraging), then it drops back to somewhere in the middle. So I've learned to temper my expectations a bit. Thanks for sharing your results. I've done maybe 10 of the 3-day fasts, plus shorter ones, and 1 5-day fast. Am now interested in trying a longer one. I'll be interested to see where you are after a week. I would never have thought I could fast even 24 hours, much less multiple days. I credit the low-carb diet with making it possible. I always get cold during fasts too. I watched a Jesse Chappus interview with Dr Alam Goldhammer about fasting (up to 40 days). Although I didn't agree with anything the guest said about food choices, he did have some interesting tidbits about fasting. I do believe our bodies are miraculous in being able to heal many things, if we give them a chance to. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful results.

I appreciate and admire your consistent data collection! I collect biometrics consistently for about 8 hours and then get sidetracked because the breeze blows 😆 I look forward to seeing your next postmortem.

Your title makes it sound you died after an extended fast.

Go Steve!!! Congrats on making it through!!! I had to have two sinks fixed also, kitchen & bathroom sinks were leaking, I have no idea how long though I also had two stopped drains in both bathtubs…go fig… As for fasting I think you need some extra fat on your body to go a week without food, which I don’t have…lol I’m 114 lbs and size 3 jeans, but I do OMAD with a little treat everyday, and I’m very happy with the results 😊 Thanks for sharing Steve…happy eating…hope you have a great 4th of July 🇺🇸

I have been doing intermittent fasting for two years. I made my first 24 hour fast. Yay! Now I need to start moving forward with longer fasts.

It's cool that you share all the specifics on results so we kinda have an idea of what to expect for extended fast. Not sure if I could do 6 or 7 days but I think I would start with a three day fast? Thanks...for sharing! (said in Steve voice lol)

I don't understand the blood glucose measurements; isn't 90 quite high?

Always cold when I fast. Thank you so much for all the info. Love the way you track everything
