Almost 59 now, I have been fasting and eating low/no carb for about 9 months now. I will do a 48 hr once a month and a 36 hr every week, OMAD in between time. My weight went from 235 to 175, blood pressure down to normal and the big one, a reduction in Triglycerides, my dad is Type 2 and I want nothing to do with that. Anyone just getting into this, it is tough at first, hunger pangs can be quite persuasive. Stick it out however and it gets much easier to continue when the results are so positive.

I had a really good experience on my 48hr fast after I saw your other video on fasting regarding women. I even lost more weight throughout the night, last night. So fun. I’m doing it again in a month.
Just started having Black coffee with very little sprinkle of Himalayan pink salt. It tastes good. A beginner black coffee drinker like me would adapt to it due to salt sprinkle. Its bitter taste completely changes. From sweet Latte to Black coffee, this saltsprinkle helped me alot. Thank you.
How has that been working for you, I'm thinking about doing it Just learned about pH of water and I'm 48 hours into a fast, the brand I drink is 6pH and wanted to up that number to 7 but dont want to break a fast accidently and just not eat for the rest of the 72 hours
@@dwnwa1872 honestly I did omad for ten days and quit. Only lost 1 pound, had a lot nausea, dizziness despite hydrating. I also think I completely shut down my metabolism. Then I quit and gained back within a day. I think I only lost water weight. But now I switched back to regular and just focused on eating more fruits and veggies. I lost the same weight again but I don’t look like a prune. I am not saying it’s bad, I just don’t think that it’s for me and I’m sharing my experience.
@@shobanana1 thanks for your response it means alot I'm 58 hours into my fast, did you put a whole lime in your water or how did that work also? I have half a tsp of Himilaya salt in a gallon (drink it all day) and a squeeze some juice like maybe 6 drops into my water and even then I feel it was too much so how much were you using?
@@shobanana1 not to rain on your parade but the way you did it seems pretty obvious, that's probably too much salt if you're using quality salt and too much lemon for the size of your water since 900ml is .9 liter. I squeezed some lemon juice into my gallon (maybe 6 to 8 drops MAX) and my gallon is 3.78 Litres. Just a possibility, do you still fast though?
After rebounding sadly I gained back the 16kgs I lost. However after a really high BP episode where I ended up. In the Emergency room, I gave myself time to rest up and sort my head out. 4 days ago I started a 10 day fast. It’s my yearly ritual. A great way of cleaning house and getting over cravings. Back to your RUclips channel Thomas. Daily motivational talks. Thank you. This is me getting up and starting over 😀
@@ThomasDeLauerOfficial hey Thomas great video I just wanted to know if MiO Energy is safe (during a fast) I think that's what you were talking about when u spoke about minerals/ electrolytes
I just broke my intermittent fast with a cup of coffee with creamer, eggs and sausage. :D I was making the mistake of drinking my coffee with creamer while I was fasting to help with hunger so I could make it to noon. I measured everything b/c I was keeping it under 50calories, but then I saw your videos and decided to just tough it out.
So what about fruit/ veggie infused water. For example, cucumber water is that safe and if it is safe what about ingesting the cucumbers too(which I assume eating the cucumber will break the fast but my question is whether or not the water infused with cucumber will break a fast?) or a cucumber/ carrot tea. As well as onion tea are those gonna break a fast? Also, what’s the strict definition of breaking a fast what does that mean?(ie, what does it do to your body when you break a fast??) Thank you for reading and any helpful comments will be much appreciated!
I have been intermittently fasting on a daily basis (used to do 16/8, whereas I now do OMAD - around 20-22 hours fasted everyday) for about 2 years. I used to drink black coffee while fasting as 1) I love coffee and 2) it's a powerful combo when combined with the intrinsic mental clarity and efficiency that fasting enables. However, after watching Dr Rhonda Patrick on the Joe Rogan Podcast where she explained that anything other than water starts the timer so to speak on the digestive enzymes that work within the body, I opted for water only. It makes sense when you consider that coffee obviously has to be processed and broken down in some way for the polyphenols to aid in autophagy etc. I'm unsure if this has any impact on the effectiveness of fasting but just thought that it is worth noting. I would be interested to hear your thoughts Thomas. Either way, fasting is an incredibly powerful tool that has truly changed my life. Happy fasting everyone x
@@stjepanduvnjak6171 I believe because the only difference between carbonated water and still water is the addition of carbon, and the fact that carbon is a fundamental component of every human body, then there's no way carbonated water would break a fast.
Do Thomas DLauer videos break a fast? No. Because there are no calories in there. Maybe you consume some sweet info, but the benefits are much stronger.
It helps cut the bitter flavor or plain coffee. , but not alot cuz then yes yuck. My pawpaw was in navy and thats how he still drinks his coffee now :)
Sir- I am immensely grateful to you for all you do to help those of us who have great difficulty in losing weight. I started intermittent fasting on January 16. I have lost 2 lbs but I am 100 percent committed to intermittent fasting to improve my health. You have motivated me. I really admire your presenta
I just watched Dr Fung video on fasting. He disagrees with you on creamer & bone broth. He said you can even have up to 500 calories & it may only slightly raise your insulin but it will soon come back down. But to play it safe, I’m steering clear of it.
i guess it just depends on what your goal is with the fast! if its for a gut reset or autophagy its probably better to avoid them. if its to get into ketosis or lose weight, it should be okay. but at the end of the day its not a really big deal, and if someone really loves cream in their coffee they shouldnt restrict themselves too much :)
Thank you. I'm on day 2 of a 4 or 5 day water fast (trying to heal from IBS). I was in the middle of drinking black coffee when I found this video. I woke up with a major cramp in my calf. So knowing I can take magnesium and potassium is great to know. I'm just sad I won't be able to drink my peppermint tea =(
Glad to see zevia mentioned in the comments. I figured the mention of stevia meant it was safe, but wanted confirmation. What about Bai drinks (i prefer the coconut flavors, if that matters). It does have some coconut water in there, but only 5 calories per serving...so?
Such a huge relief finding out my pre workout is not breaking my fast if I get the right one. Now to take away bone broth and I’m pretty much good to go
Very useful stuff. Two questions on this: 1) When you say lemon and lime juice, does this incorporate cordial with added water - or pure lemon and lime juice? 2) Do supplements such as vitamin D and multivitamin tablets break a fast? Thanks!
I wouldn’t recommend taking vitamins on an empty stomach. You should be okay for a few days without them. Your body will digest the vitamins stored in your fat.
Vitamins and supplements should always be eaten WITH real food. That way the body recognises them as nutrients and will process them properly. There may be some exceptions but when you think about breaking a fast, just remember that whatever forces your body to start it's digestive system is breaking a fast. With regards to the lemon and lime juice, he means adding a little fresh lemon or lime, or even the concentrated stuff, to your water. NOT pure juice alone.
Awesome video, thank you! You seem to be the only one who says diet soda is OK during fasting. Everyone else on youtube/Google etc says no. I'm trying to cut down and drink water only during the fasting part but it's good to know I can drink one and still get the health benefits of the fasting.
I did the pruvit 60hr reboot. It's said to be a 60hr fast but it's all ketones, even the broth has ketones. The marketers do say that it does break a fast but the ketones put you into a fast so it's fine. But I didn't eat at all for about 64 hrs and only lost about half a pound. Now I understand why.
Thank you Thomas for clearing up the technical aspects of Black Coffee. I understood that is was safe, but had no clue as to the Polyphenols supporting Autophagy, which is one of the main reasons I do Intermittent Fasting... of course I am saying this as I sip on my black coffee while on a 20 hour fast 😜 I “ Love “ knowing the Science... As ever... you “ Rock “ Thomas
carmen machuca You can search it on Thomas’s Channel, he has done videos on it before and can more accurately outline and explain what it is and its benefits. In short though, as I understand it, its where unused cells in the body are forced into death, or recycled maybe is the better word. Making way for stronger and healthier cells to proliferate...
Why have you never discussed the problem and dangers of drink teas while fasting. The tannins in teas can cause serious nausea and upset stomach. This is well documented and I have experienced it myself, to the point where I almost blacked out. I follow a lot of your content and for the most part it is great, but in the same way, following your advice... I almost blacked out one day when drinking tea before breaking my fast. Hope to get your take on this.
@@ThomasDeLauerOfficial does herb teas break autophagy,? and how much can i have every day? (i mean green tea, oregano tea, thyme tea, olive leaf tea, fresh nettle juice.. )
I had bariatric surgery five years ago still would like to burn off extra fat .I am currently 59 years old ,but I have to take the following vitamins and minerals daily. Vitamin A ,E, D ,Calcium and Iron.My question is do I still take these prescribed vitamins during the fast ? I do consider this as not a fast . Before surgery I weighed 610 pounds now I weigh in the neighbourhood of 290 pounds.Thanks for guiding us to a happier,healthier body. My surgical procedures are the following stomach stapled,and intestinal bypass.I do rowing daily for 25 min @ 5-6 level on my Concept 2 .If you need more info I can supply it to you.Planning to add weight lifting in the near future too.
Kind of a weird question but im always curious when i take my medications if its breaking my fast. I have epilepsy so i take meds for that, i also take magnesium, a daily vitamins, an allergy pill and meds for heartburn... also is lacroix and perrier ok to drink while fasting. Love your videos. Thanks for taking the time to make them.
Use ACV and properly made sauerkraut and heal your gut. Heartburn medicines are H2 blockers and disrupt your gut-they hide symptoms but allow worsening of gut dysbiosis, which is a severe imbalance of good vs bad gut bacteria. An Australian doctor proved that untreated gut bacterial infections cause 100% of later seriously acute gut issues (mouth, esophageal, bowel cancers) You can fix this risk by healing your gut. No more masking agents. Thomas teaches good gut health practices. Also note-many reflux issues come from the bacterial overgrowth also, and or consuming food allergens.
Fast for 72 hours and you won't need no f'kin meds for heartburn, you have heartburn cause your gut is f'd up you probably drink coffee once a day or alcohol.. loose your weight you fat ass
3+ years later and this video is still awesome! I'm on 3rd day of a fast, and made a delicious cocktail with juice of half a lemon, seltzer soda, ACV, and sea salt. It seemed like a bubbling science experiment, highly recommend it. Happy fasting everyone!
On a 48 hour fast. 44 hours in. But added collagen peptide powder to my black coffee this morning. Did that now ruin the nice benefits of my fast? Also had I teasp cod liver oil. feeling like I now ruined my fast.
@@CalebMcFarland Half and half is definitely not ok during your fasting period. It has calories. Calories (even just a few) will break your fast. It's okay on a Keto diet but not on an actual intermittent fasting diet (unless it's during your eating window) :-)
Looking at the teas now. Do you have any recommendations for mineral/electrolyte packs that won’t affect a 36hr fast? Also great videos really informative and helpful for motivation too
Just get ones that don't have any added vitamins like Vit C (because the body sees that as food), or any added sweeteners that are not on the keto approved list. There's lots of electrolyte powders out there. The ones that are JUST electrolytes will not break your fast and will actually help you. Also, just adding some pink salt or sea salt to your liquids will help keep your electrolytes balanced. Don't be shy with the salt! But NEVER use regular table salt that is iodized. That stuff will kill you! Always a pure mineral salts like pink or sea salt. Use a grinder and you're good to go.
Cocoa, turmeric, organic olive oil, pomegranate peel (can make tea with it) green tea,, ginger, Ceylon cinnamon, ginseng, garlic, certain mushrooms (chaga and reishi), pomegranate and elderberries are all known to increase autophagy. Others include bergamot, berberine, resveratrol and MCT oil
I drank coffee with some coffee mate in there. It has so few calories in their. I know it's not healthy but I'm trying to lose some weight I have been successful so far. On my fast they will last week I fasted for 21,22 hours and then I eat. I have an amazing energy a laser sharp mind it just amazing. I do two or three apple cider vinegar a day, and I drink two or three 16 oz cups of coffee. My family thinks I'm crazy but hey it works thank you Jason and thank you Tom
You convinced me with lemon juice. It really clears your mind too. I wouldn't drink coffee, because it makes me feel hungry. Or strong black tea, cuz stomach heaps. Anyway, great content, man!
Hey Thomas, i am so grateful for the content that you create,. I want to know if all the companies that you promote are able to send internationally? am from Guadalajara Mexico
@@ThomasDeLauerOfficial Related keto question: On days that you don't feel like consuming as many calories, is it okay or advisable to lower your fat macro% and increase your protein % to keep your protein intake relatively stable?
@WingMeTips i've heard so many conflicting recommendations on this (maybe @Thomas DeLauer wil see this part) from .7g * lean mass being recommended to any negative effects really only showing up at extremely high levels like 2.2g (2 keto dudes presentation at a conference, they didnt recommend that intake just that that was more of a maximum to avoid) all the way down to recommending not much more than like .4g/lb because of mTOR activation and all kind of things (ruclips.net/video/LylJ0OOcONg/видео.html). personally, if I get more than about .8g/lb lean I dont feel quite as well as the same number of calories with lower protein, higher fat. Dr Berg recommends less because he counts autophagy as a part of protein metabolism. its just completely not a simple question and it varies even further based on goals, weight loss vs muscle gain.
it’s been proven that just the taste of something sweet, even if it can’t be used as an energy source, tricks your brain into releasing insulin because it expects there to be glucose in you if you’re ingesting something that tastes sweet.
Spiderone I didn’t have time to find the direct links to the studies themselves but there are studies that prove it. read this article. I hope I have you pointed in the right direction. www.health.harvard.edu/diabetes/ask-the-doctor-do-artificial-sweeteners-cause-insulin-resistance
Here i am trying to prepare mentally for a fast on my next day off. Fasted once a few years back for 7 days and lol my sense of smell was so heightened, I was pinning pictures of food on Pinterest late at night. That was a water fast. I think this time I'm just going to try a 48 hr fast with these recommended drinks and hopefully do better.
Hmmm, would be cool to watch you and Dr. Berg in a video together, discussing your disagreements. It's hard to decide who's advice to take when you're getting very similar advice with pieces of information that are completely different.

Very safe and effective. I lost 9 lbs on a 48 hour water fast.
@@andrewrayuga6774
That does not sound like a healthy amount of weight to lose. How much of that did you gain back foloowing week?
Lemon water with honey is also safe ?
No sugar for fasting
@@AryanVenkatOfficial no honey!!!
I had a really good experience on my 48hr fast after I saw your other video on fasting regarding women. I even lost more weight throughout the night, last night. So fun. I’m doing it again in a month.
What about a video on vitamins/supplements that can/cannot break a fast?
You answered all my questions. For months I thought I was fasting....but from this...I wasn't.
Just started having Black coffee with very little sprinkle of Himalayan pink salt. It tastes good. A beginner black coffee drinker like me would adapt to it due to salt sprinkle. Its bitter taste completely changes. From sweet Latte to Black coffee, this saltsprinkle helped me alot. Thank you.
What i understand from this is you can have alternative sweetener in it. Yeah!
Thanks!
I started omad and I’m mixing water with lime juice and acv and salt and it tastes so good, I can’t believe I’m fasting
How has that been working for you, I'm thinking about doing it Just learned about pH of water and I'm 48 hours into a fast, the brand I drink is 6pH and wanted to up that number to 7 but dont want to break a fast accidently and just not eat for the rest of the 72 hours
@@dwnwa1872 honestly I did omad for ten days and quit. Only lost 1 pound, had a lot nausea, dizziness despite hydrating. I also think I completely shut down my metabolism. Then I quit and gained back within a day. I think I only lost water weight. But now I switched back to regular and just focused on eating more fruits and veggies. I lost the same weight again but I don’t look like a prune. I am not saying it’s bad, I just don’t think that it’s for me and I’m sharing my experience.
@@shobanana1 thanks for your response it means alot I'm 58 hours into my fast, did you put a whole lime in your water or how did that work also? I have half a tsp of Himilaya salt in a gallon (drink it all day) and a squeeze some juice like maybe 6 drops into my water and even then I feel it was too much so how much were you using?
@@dwnwa1872 I used a whole lime and 1tsp of Regular salt and 2 tsbp of acv in about 900ml of water. It was very flavorful
@@shobanana1 not to rain on your parade but the way you did it seems pretty obvious, that's probably too much salt if you're using quality salt and too much lemon for the size of your water since 900ml is .9 liter. I squeezed some lemon juice into my gallon (maybe 6 to 8 drops MAX) and my gallon is 3.78 Litres. Just a possibility, do you still fast though?
After rebounding sadly I gained back the 16kgs I lost. However after a really high BP episode where I ended up. In the Emergency room, I gave myself time to rest up and sort my head out. 4 days ago I started a 10 day fast. It’s my yearly ritual. A great way of cleaning house and getting over cravings. Back to your RUclips channel Thomas. Daily motivational talks. Thank you. This is me getting up and starting over 😀
Thank you !!. I’m beginning my water fasting only today and sharing with RUclips. Wish me luck guys⭐️
Wow got right to the point without telling us the title 15 times. Concise and quick. Thanks.
Thomas and Dr. Berg gonna make me rich, because no more 6, 7 meals a day.
Lol
Yes I feel u
@@ThomasDeLauerOfficial hey Thomas great video I just wanted to know if MiO Energy is safe (during a fast) I think that's what you were talking about when u spoke about minerals/ electrolytes
following Dr Berg videos I cut off my snacks and so on so it's really good can save money and maintain a healthy life
TRUE - spend less $
I just broke my intermittent fast with a cup of coffee with creamer, eggs and sausage. :D
I was making the mistake of drinking my coffee with creamer while I was fasting to help with hunger so I could make it to noon. I measured everything b/c I was keeping it under 50calories, but then I saw your videos and decided to just tough it out.
Thank you for this breakdown. I’m trying intermittent fasting for the first time and I was torn on Lemon juice & ACV.
So what about fruit/ veggie infused water. For example, cucumber water is that safe and if it is safe what about ingesting the cucumbers too(which I assume eating the cucumber will break the fast but my question is whether or not the water infused with cucumber will break a fast?) or a cucumber/ carrot tea. As well as onion tea are those gonna break a fast? Also, what’s the strict definition of breaking a fast what does that mean?(ie, what does it do to your body when you break a fast??) Thank you for reading and any helpful comments will be much appreciated!
I have been intermittently fasting on a daily basis (used to do 16/8, whereas I now do OMAD - around 20-22 hours fasted everyday) for about 2 years. I used to drink black coffee while fasting as 1) I love coffee and 2) it's a powerful combo when combined with the intrinsic mental clarity and efficiency that fasting enables.
However, after watching Dr Rhonda Patrick on the Joe Rogan Podcast where she explained that anything other than water starts the timer so to speak on the digestive enzymes that work within the body, I opted for water only. It makes sense when you consider that coffee obviously has to be processed and broken down in some way for the polyphenols to aid in autophagy etc.
I'm unsure if this has any impact on the effectiveness of fasting but just thought that it is worth noting. I would be interested to hear your thoughts Thomas.
Either way, fasting is an incredibly powerful tool that has truly changed my life.
Happy fasting everyone x
He never comments on Dr. Patrick's work.
@@bobbysweeney5377 : think I would trust the DR. on this one. She is a dietary research Dr.
@@kennethalbert4653 Shes a human search engine.
I wonder does carbonated water count? Is it still just water or does body digest it and it breaks fast?
@@stjepanduvnjak6171 I believe because the only difference between carbonated water and still water is the addition of carbon, and the fact that carbon is a fundamental component of every human body, then there's no way carbonated water would break a fast.
3 days on a fast and this is what I need. Thank you!
I come back to this segment over and over.
This is a great channel! I learn so much and really like the way you do the description so I can read everything as well.
This is awesome. My green tea had turmeric and cinnamon in it. I’m guessing it’s ok then.
Great video. I watched it while fasting & drinking black coffee.
LD Hablizel haha! Putting it into action
I watching while "fasting" and drinking coffee with 18% cream. Nooooooo! Whhhhhy!? Lol
me to lol
This guy is still pushing bullshit while taking HGH and clenbuterol
Same haha
Do Thomas DLauer videos break a fast?
No. Because there are no calories in there. Maybe you consume some sweet info, but the benefits are much stronger.
Lmao I love this comment
Yeah!!!!
Naturally his videos are sweetened with Stevia
Thank you! Exactly what I need to know to be a better coach for fasting clients. I am understanding the stalls now, it's the BP coffee and bone broth.
You probably won't see this but when he says electrolyte packets is the zero calorie propel packets good to go?
I never thought about adding salt to my black coffee. I'll have to try it.
Yuck !
It helps cut the bitter flavor or plain coffee. , but not alot cuz then yes yuck. My pawpaw was in navy and thats how he still drinks his coffee now :)
Water is fine.
It's a lot less complicated if you just drink water.
Yup
Agreed completely. That's what I do as I don't drink coffee. And it's the best drink bar none.
Agreed if you need something to get you going then obviously you are not fasting right and or have poor will power.
Ye but water gets boring sometimes
Chris Maybe someone is not a masochist and enjoys a cup of joe to start the day. Would 2 cals, 0.19 carbs really have any effect?
Sir- I am immensely grateful to you for all you do to help those of us who have great difficulty in losing weight. I started intermittent fasting on January 16. I have lost 2 lbs but I am 100 percent committed to intermittent fasting to improve my health. You have motivated me. I really admire your presenta
How's it going?
I just watched Dr Fung video on fasting. He disagrees with you on creamer & bone broth. He said you can even have up to 500 calories & it may only slightly raise your insulin but it will soon come back down. But to play it safe, I’m steering clear of it.
i guess it just depends on what your goal is with the fast! if its for a gut reset or autophagy its probably better to avoid them. if its to get into ketosis or lose weight, it should be okay. but at the end of the day its not a really big deal, and if someone really loves cream in their coffee they shouldnt restrict themselves too much :)
Thank you. I'm on day 2 of a 4 or 5 day water fast (trying to heal from IBS). I was in the middle of drinking black coffee when I found this video. I woke up with a major cramp in my calf. So knowing I can take magnesium and potassium is great to know. I'm just sad I won't be able to drink my peppermint tea =(
I take mag and potassium. Sometimes I still get cramps. I will then drink salt in water.
You can drink mint tea just not OIL!
You can add fresh peppermint leaves to your tea and then strain them out.
Love Dr Fung. His book changed my life!
Zevia has been a life-saver during my extended fasts.
andyottito1 ditto!
Yes! It's a game changer for me! They started making green tea in a can now too. It's good.
@@tiagoj8020 I tried one of the teas and it was delicious! I also tried one of their energy drinks but it had a funny aftertaste :/
Glad to see zevia mentioned in the comments. I figured the mention of stevia meant it was safe, but wanted confirmation.
What about Bai drinks (i prefer the coconut flavors, if that matters). It does have some coconut water in there, but only 5 calories per serving...so?

I was so curios about this. Im glad you made a video on it. Now I know. Thanks
@Thomas Delauer: Is a lemonade made of water, lemonade and stevia safe?
Your video is about 5 years ago and still the best
Thank you 🤗 you're one of few nutritionists I trust🌈(I'm busy studying for a bachelors and masters in nutrition)
How is it going? Looking at the same course
I just got my bachelor's degree in nutrition :)
The Pique Tea link has been compromised. It redirects to a site that sells junk,,,,everything from nail clippers to wedding dresses.
Very useful stuff. Two questions on this:
1) When you say lemon and lime juice, does this incorporate cordial with added water - or pure lemon and lime juice?
2) Do supplements such as vitamin D and multivitamin tablets break a fast?
Thanks!
I wouldn’t recommend taking vitamins on an empty stomach. You should be okay for a few days without them. Your body will digest the vitamins stored in your fat.
Vitamins and supplements should always be eaten WITH real food. That way the body recognises them as nutrients and will process them properly. There may be some exceptions but when you think about breaking a fast, just remember that whatever forces your body to start it's digestive system is breaking a fast.
With regards to the lemon and lime juice, he means adding a little fresh lemon or lime, or even the concentrated stuff, to your water. NOT pure juice alone.
Pure juice
what about coconut/olive oil?
What about fruit infused or floral infused waters?
For instant strawberry mint or rosewater?
Also what about cinnamon or vanilla extract in coffee?
nothing with fruits or herbals, cinnamon i think its totally okay even helps control the insulin levels!
Awesome video, thank you! You seem to be the only one who says diet soda is OK during fasting. Everyone else on youtube/Google etc says no. I'm trying to cut down and drink water only during the fasting part but it's good to know I can drink one and still get the health benefits of the fasting.
Wow, I thought Bone Broth was okay. Good to know. And great educational videos. Keep up the good work.
I did the pruvit 60hr reboot. It's said to be a 60hr fast but it's all ketones, even the broth has ketones. The marketers do say that it does break a fast but the ketones put you into a fast so it's fine. But I didn't eat at all for about 64 hrs and only lost about half a pound. Now I understand why.
Thank you Thomas for clearing up the technical aspects of Black Coffee. I understood that is was safe, but had no clue as to the Polyphenols supporting Autophagy, which is one of the main reasons I do Intermittent Fasting... of course I am saying this as I sip on my black coffee while on a 20 hour fast 😜
I “ Love “ knowing the Science...
As ever... you “ Rock “ Thomas
James Micheal Emery Black thank you my friend! And you’re very welcome!
Thomas DeLauer you knowledge keeps me on the straight-and narrow. 🙏🏽💪🏽
Black coffee is good for your liver and reduces inflammation.
Hi James what is autophagy? New on this..thanks!
carmen machuca You can search it on Thomas’s Channel, he has done videos on it before and can more accurately outline and explain what it is and its benefits. In short though, as I understand it, its where unused cells in the body are forced into death, or recycled maybe is the better word. Making way for stronger and healthier cells to proliferate...
What about extreme low caloric greens, like parsley, mint, thyme, lettuce, purslane, cress, etc?
Very informative! Thank you. Love my lemon water first thing in the morning.
thanks a lot for answering so many of my confusions regarding risk of breakung fast. quite valuable information
im on my 3rd day drinking just lemon juice because i trust what you say.
Basically anything that has calories isn't fasting safe: that means protein, sugar, or fat (add in alcohol too, as it is a caloric source).
Pique Tea is fantastic. The owners brought samples into my work and I've been hooked since.
Why have you never discussed the problem and dangers of drink teas while fasting. The tannins in teas can cause serious nausea and upset stomach. This is well documented and I have experienced it myself, to the point where I almost blacked out. I follow a lot of your content and for the most part it is great, but in the same way, following your advice... I almost blacked out one day when drinking tea before breaking my fast.
Hope to get your take on this.
4:01 Oh didn't know Dr Jason Fung had tea . I would like to try it.
ishtar0077 it’s a game changer
@@ThomasDeLauerOfficial does herb teas break autophagy,?
and how much can i have every day? (i mean green tea, oregano tea, thyme tea, olive leaf tea, fresh nettle juice.. )
Hi Thomas, I'm from India I love all your video's they are very informative. My question is How to break a fast if you are a vegan???
Watermelon / melon is often used in fasting centers
Steak
Excellent information that I trust and respect.
Great knowledge!!
Thank you 🙏
You can be a flexible on your fast as much as you want, it depends on your Fasting Objective
Question: How about roasted chicory root coffee/tea replacement during a fast?
did you get an answer to this?
Not much of a comment person on RUclips but thanks for the tip on pink salt in black coffee. 👍🏾
How about fresh-pressed orange juice?
Can you still take supplements like magnesium and fish oil pills? Or would the fish oil fall under the oil category- no go?
Fish oil has calories so no
Before your fast is the best
I would love to know more about spices
Veggie broth has no collagen whatsoever. It should be ok if homemade (the store-bought stuff often has sugar).
I had bariatric surgery five years ago still would like to burn off extra fat .I am currently 59 years old ,but I have to take the following vitamins and minerals daily.
Vitamin A ,E, D ,Calcium and Iron.My question is do I still take these prescribed vitamins during the fast ? I do consider this as not a fast .
Before surgery I weighed 610 pounds now I weigh in the neighbourhood of 290 pounds.Thanks for guiding us to a happier,healthier body.
My surgical procedures are the following stomach stapled,and intestinal bypass.I do rowing daily for 25 min @ 5-6 level on my Concept 2 .If you need more info I can supply it to you.Planning to add weight lifting in the near future too.
Will the mix of water with lemon juice and a pinch salt be good during the fasting period?
He says it's good to have salt in your liquids while fasting, he mentioned it in the 10 fasting commandments video. (I'm sure pink Himalayan)
Yes it’s good🙏
Electrolite
Kind of a weird question but im always curious when i take my medications if its breaking my fast. I have epilepsy so i take meds for that, i also take magnesium, a daily vitamins, an allergy pill and meds for heartburn... also is lacroix and perrier ok to drink while fasting. Love your videos. Thanks for taking the time to make them.
Definitely take your medicine! You need it! Lol. He says so in another video.
Laura Jones I am 67 so def have daily meds. Some I can take on an empty stomach, no prob. The others I take during my eating window.
Use ACV and properly made sauerkraut and heal your gut. Heartburn medicines are H2 blockers and disrupt your gut-they hide symptoms but allow worsening of gut dysbiosis, which is a severe imbalance of good vs bad gut bacteria. An Australian doctor proved that untreated gut bacterial infections cause 100% of later seriously acute gut issues (mouth, esophageal, bowel cancers) You can fix this risk by healing your gut. No more masking agents. Thomas teaches good gut health practices.
Also note-many reflux issues come from the bacterial overgrowth also, and or consuming food allergens.
Fast for 72 hours and you won't need no f'kin meds for heartburn, you have heartburn cause your gut is f'd up you probably drink coffee once a day or alcohol.. loose your weight you fat ass
@@AdidasGvng Such a unnecessary comment. Get off the damn internet if you cant be nice
3+ years later and this video is still awesome! I'm on 3rd day of a fast, and made a delicious cocktail with juice of half a lemon, seltzer soda, ACV, and sea salt. It seemed like a bubbling science experiment, highly recommend it. Happy fasting everyone!
Excellent work. Keep it up!!
On a 48 hour fast. 44 hours in. But added collagen peptide powder to my black coffee this morning. Did that now ruin the nice benefits of my fast?
Also had I teasp cod liver oil. feeling like I now ruined my fast.
Was hilarious watching you struggle to say what you said about diet soda/aspartame. Completely get it but still funny. Thanks for the video!
Casey Peters haha! I’m human
Dr. Berg says half and half is okay. Please explain
e K probably if your on a Keto diet it’s ok but not on a fast
Adrianne Alvord I think he said it’s okay on a fast as well. Like it’ll have a small metabolic effect but being fat wouldn’t spike insulin and things.
@@CalebMcFarland Half and half is definitely not ok during your fasting period. It has calories. Calories (even just a few) will break your fast. It's okay on a Keto diet but not on an actual intermittent fasting diet (unless it's during your eating window) :-)
What’s about a chicory root “Coffee” of malted barely and chicory root ?
Good question. I’d be interested to hear that answer! Few people touch on more exotic coffee alternatives/ tea blends/ herbal drinks.
So green tea with lime and stevia it's okay?
I found Pickle Juice very helpful to make me feel like i had eaten something... safe/notsafe ? seems like a mix of saltwater and vinegar :)
Most brines are vinegar/sugar mixture...lots of sugar.
@@kjkernSerendipity what if it's sugar free?
Looking at the teas now. Do you have any recommendations for mineral/electrolyte packs that won’t affect a 36hr fast?
Also great videos really informative and helpful for motivation too
Just get ones that don't have any added vitamins like Vit C (because the body sees that as food), or any added sweeteners that are not on the keto approved list. There's lots of electrolyte powders out there. The ones that are JUST electrolytes will not break your fast and will actually help you. Also, just adding some pink salt or sea salt to your liquids will help keep your electrolytes balanced. Don't be shy with the salt! But NEVER use regular table salt that is iodized. That stuff will kill you! Always a pure mineral salts like pink or sea salt. Use a grinder and you're good to go.
Hi Tom, I love your videos, what about flavored seltzer water?
Cocoa, turmeric, organic olive oil, pomegranate peel (can make tea with it) green tea,, ginger, Ceylon cinnamon, ginseng, garlic, certain mushrooms (chaga and reishi), pomegranate and elderberries are all known to increase autophagy. Others include bergamot, berberine, resveratrol and MCT oil
Just started fasting and already messed up with the BCAAs 😭😭 But thanks for the info!
Question on spices - don't some spices, like cinnamon, have calories/carbs in them, and if so, are they really still okay?
And also are they okay in tea form?
I drank coffee with some coffee mate in there. It has so few calories in their. I know it's not healthy but I'm trying to lose some weight I have been successful so far. On my fast they will last week I fasted for 21,22 hours and then I eat. I have an amazing energy a laser sharp mind it just amazing. I do two or three apple cider vinegar a day, and I drink two or three 16 oz cups of coffee. My family thinks I'm crazy but hey it works thank you Jason and thank you Tom
Ginger, pink Himalayan salt, lemon
These 3 were my biggest questions.
Thanks for answering them.
What about pickle juice?
You convinced me with lemon juice. It really clears your mind too.
I wouldn't drink coffee, because it makes me feel hungry. Or strong black tea, cuz stomach heaps.
Anyway, great content, man!
Hey Thomas, i am so grateful for the content that you create,. I want to know if all the companies that you promote are able to send internationally? am from Guadalajara Mexico
Propably not because these are smaller and very niche comppanies.
What about lemon with coffee ☕️?
Can you do a video on protein intake on a keto diet ? I have trouble getting enough protein (like 140gr) in and keeping my macros under 30%
Great idea for a video. Will do
@WingMeTips That's too much protein for keto.
@@ThomasDeLauerOfficial Related keto question: On days that you don't feel like consuming as many calories, is it okay or advisable to lower your fat macro% and increase your protein % to keep your protein intake relatively stable?
@WingMeTips i've heard so many conflicting recommendations on this (maybe @Thomas DeLauer wil see this part) from .7g * lean mass being recommended to any negative effects really only showing up at extremely high levels like 2.2g (2 keto dudes presentation at a conference, they didnt recommend that intake just that that was more of a maximum to avoid) all the way down to recommending not much more than like .4g/lb because of mTOR activation and all kind of things (ruclips.net/video/LylJ0OOcONg/видео.html). personally, if I get more than about .8g/lb lean I dont feel quite as well as the same number of calories with lower protein, higher fat. Dr Berg recommends less because he counts autophagy as a part of protein metabolism. its just completely not a simple question and it varies even further based on goals, weight loss vs muscle gain.
I was looking for someone to tell me that drinking diet soda is OK, and it took me like 4 videos, but finally found one 🤣
Claudia RS biased much
it’s been proven that just the taste of something sweet, even if it can’t be used as an energy source, tricks your brain into releasing insulin because it expects there to be glucose in you if you’re ingesting something that tastes sweet.
@@mailman395 please provide a link to a study that proves that. (spoiler alert: there's none)

Here i am trying to prepare mentally for a fast on my next day off. Fasted once a few years back for 7 days and lol my sense of smell was so heightened, I was pinning pictures of food on Pinterest late at night. That was a water fast.

Ill just drink water. When dry fasting i get headeaks towards the end of my fast it maybe due to not drinking water.
I am so confused you say no to bone broth and Dr Berg says its ok. Please help.
The difference is fasting versus ketosis.
Bone broth will break a fast, it will not kick you out of ketosis.
Same with cafe with MCT oil, Dr Berg say will not breaking fast but here Tomas say it will hmm I don't know what I must believe?!
@@luckyladybug7877 its an oil, its a fat.. it will 100% break your fast
When you say "Electrolytes" are OK, are you talking about those
Emergen-C packets, or
Nuun Tablets,

GU hydration tablets?
Hmmm, would be cool to watch you and Dr. Berg in a video together, discussing your disagreements. It's hard to decide who's advice to take when you're getting very similar advice with pieces of information that are completely different.
I agree. Different information and opinions. I'm at odds here.
