Are you wondering what will happen to your body when you fast? Cuz if you are you should know that fasting will provide benefits that extend far further than just burning fat and making your diet more sustainable and enjoyable. When your body goes without food for a certain period of time, you'll experience changes that effect your brain, your digestive system, immune system, hormones, and even the function of all the microscopic cells found within your body. When you first begin fasting a few things happen at the cellular level that may cause hunger and fatigue if you're a beginner. this is because Your body will normally get it's energy from glucose or carbohydrates, so depending on how much sugar you have in your blood, and how much glycogen or carbohydrates you have stored in your muscles and your liver, it can take anywhere from 8 to 48 hours without food for your body to switch from mostly using glucose or carbs for energy to breaking down fat and using ketone bodies for energy in a process known as gluconeogenesis.(1) Now, to most people, the concept of going anywhere from 16 hours up to a few days without food may sound incredibly foolish and unhealthy but the exact opposite is actually true and it hasn't always been so mainstream to eat at least 3 times a day everyday. Human beings have evolved to be perfectly capable of going long periods without food. And this is supported by research on modern hunters and gatherers that shows that they go between intermittent periods of feeding and fasting depending on the availability of food. (2) For example modern Bushmen living in Africa go through frequent periods of food deprivation ranging from 1 to 10 days when they can't catch any game, or when they have seasonal droughts, or especially when animals migrate. The truth is that most healthy adults have evolved to be perfectly capable of fasting and the good news is that you don't have to fast for 10 days to experience the benefits for your body. Just 16 hours will provide some really unique beneficial effects. And when going through your first 16 hours without food the first thing you should expect is to start feeling really hungry right around your regular meal times that you're skipping. This is because of a hunger hormone in your body known as Ghrelin, which stimulates your appetite when it's released. And studies show that ghrelin levels will spike up at the times of the day that you normally eat, which for most people is breakfast, lunch, and dinner. (4) This will happen to your body automatically, and if you give in and eat before your fast is over the same thing will happen again the next day. On the other hand if you just ride out that hungry feeling, within about 2 hours after the initial spike in ghrelin, it should drop back down to normal levels and your appetite should drop. (4) And as your body adapts more and more to skipping a meal like breakfast or multiple meals throughout the day you'll feel less of those automatic cravings to eat during those key times of the day that you normally find yourself hungry. If you allow yourself to adapt to consistently fasting for just 16 hours a day, while eating a healthy diet during the other 8 hours you're body will start to become much more sensitive to insulin. Having higher insulin sensitivity will not only help enhance fat loss, it'll also help you feel much better when your body doesn't have carbs available for energy, and it'll help reverse or reduce the risk of a number of serious diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and even thyroid conditions. Now, during each of your 16 hour fasts, about 6 hours into the fast your body will begin going through another incredible process known as autophaghy. This is a process where your body begins destroying old or damaged parts of your cells. When you're always eating your body doesn't get a chance to do this because it's constantly rebuilding rather than breaking down. And breaking down unnecessary and dysfunctional components of your cells allows them to be recycled so they can perform optimally. This helps reduce inflammation throughout the body which helps fight a number of diseases. (5) The benefits of Autophaghy will also extend to your skin cells potentially slowing down wrinkles, age spots, and acne. Your immune system will also improve thanks to autophaghy. Your body will repair and produce brand new white blood cells which will be...

Some of the studies below are randomized control trials, but some of the others will need further research to solidify the claims.

Gravity Transformation - Fat Loss Experts good work man. I really enjoy your content and have actually been able to lose 15-20 lbs in about 3-4 months (Dec 2018-> March 2019)
Gravity Transformation - Fat Loss Experts:
As always great video and it’s a reminder that intermittent fasting is an opportunity for the body to cleanse itself of waste and to increase one's metabolic rate.
More than 1400 years ago, Prophet Muhammad used to fast on Mondays and Thursdays (twice a week) and recommended everyone to do so if they can.
Fasting twice a week is not only (Sunnah) tradition of Prophet Muhammad but its more clear as shown in your video and other studies by other professionals in the heath industry to be a healthy routine for your body.
Love watching u keep me motivated 🙏
Another awesome video. Thanks! Dr. Axe and others have worked with Carb Reduction Diets for Cancer mitigation. It makes perfect sense to starve the wildly growing cancer cells by eliminating their favorite food source. Check them out!!
Pls do some video about smoking weed every week or daily usage if having a effect sorry for bad english
I was really DEPRESSED and stressed tf out until I started fasting, tomorrow makes 6 days no food, just water... I feel great more positive
Also try meditation 🧘♂️ 10-15 minutes 2 time a day morning, before bed for stress 😊

Fasting is an incredibly powerful health hack that can literally save your life!
Beautiful explanation about Fasting . That is just same What profit Mohammad told us 1400 yers ago . Fasting is very healthy Cell regeneration
Thanks Ken! What about taking supplements while fasting. Like hydroxycut with minimal workout like running? In order for me to join the military I need to lose 20 pounds.
Fast with prayer because thats the orginal way whether people agree or not. Whether for spiritual exercise or regular exercise for trimming down there both heathly but theres more benefits with prayer. God bless💪😇👊👊😎👊
hey very curious will this have a negative effect on muscle growth?
@@jojosiwa5117 I was wondering same thing.?
I went from fasting 12:12, to 16:8, to 18:6 where I'm having two (low carb) meals in that 6 hour period. I feel absolutely incredible. My waistline has shrunk, my skin is clear, my sleep has improved and my overall mood is much better. Try it guys, it truly does work.
Will try, is good if i have one protein rich meal in the 6 hour period and nothing else?
I have done the same. Every few days I’ll go one meal a day and monthly a 72 hour fast. Same results you have. It works!
Go full carnivore and you'll feel amazing
don't you get hungry and can you sport with so low energy meal
Been doing fasting for 7 weeks down 40+ pounds. Shit works well. UPDATE: 100lbs Down!!
yeah when you don't get calories in you lose weight, pretty simple dude. "shit works well" its like saying wow drinking water works to keep me hydrated!

I started intermittent fasting, only ate from 3PM-11PM, in the beginning of 2019 around April and it is now November. I went from 185 to 135 no exercise. Now I eat 2 small meals a day. The food industry makes us think we constantly need to eat to make money.
nice job!
AyooitsReese really?? No exercise???
Fast food, junk food and meat/dairy "pushers" know the more we eat things high in sugars or those things that alter our hormones, the more we crave and the more we will eat. It's sad our governments support such.
AyooitsReese that the same time im using for my fast
AyooitsReese im glad you got good results i have been doing it for one week and i sticking to it I hope I get the same turn out as you
Fasting has changed my life. I've been doing IF for over 4 years, have done a 24 hour fast every week for 3 years, have done 3 72-hour fasts, and just wrapped up my first 5 day fast. I've never experienced anything like it.
I do IF and OMAD fast everyday for 20 to 22 hours, longest fast I've done is 43 hours.. going for a 72 hour fast now. Fasting is definitely a way of life for me.
woah I can't do more than 16hrs ngl, so 72 hrs is some mad stuff congrats
Willpower and Mental Strength 👏🏾 I applaud
I just did a 72 hour fast, day 3 feels the easiest. Hope your fasting journey goes smoothly.
That seems extreme
What is OMAD?
I weigh over 400 pounds, and I've decided to start water fasting TODAY!
How is the progress so far

Feeling great, minus occasional cravings.
How you getting on mate
Great, congrats, how much weight did shed off

i am a Muslim and in ramadan we fast for 16 hours a day for a month and i can tell you that it really feels very good after first 5 days! you will feel more energetic and slim
But eat heavy meal meat in morning and evening

I am on 3 day fasting. The first 24h you feel empty. Now on my 48h i can tell you that your like in different state of mind. Everything seem on slow motion. And the last thing its like your body are on cleaning mode. Pure magic 🙏💯
I fast 2 time per months following moon calendar. It a blessing in health.
Great information thanks !
I’m fasting rn and I’m 11
Do you drink water ?
@@drizzle092 nope brother.
I've been fasting on 1 meal per day for almost 6 months and can tell you that I feel more energy, mental clarity and have lost some weight. It does work.
How Much weight you lost?!
How do you maintain your protein intake. I’m trying it but I’m failing at eating enough protein macros.
Femi Nyatepe-Coo a really good source of protein that have low calories is tuna with water not oil
About 10Kgs (22lbs) overall but it hasn't been constant as I was skipping gym here and there and summer I had so many cheat days. All in all, about 0.5Kg per week with moderate exercise.
I eat 1 chicken breast or salmon or other fish like trout per day plus 35g of whey protein shake. It seems to be enough but I've only been training intermittent in the gym, 3-4 days per week at most. How do you know that you're not getting enough protein? Slow gains?
This is sooo true! Intermittent Fasting really helps me. I lost 17kgs in the last 2 months while doing Low carb and intermittent fasting. I had mild anxiety due to my health condition, and now I'm feeling better more than ever. I gained back my self esteem and I'm happier with my body and the result. Plus, saves you a lot of money. ❤️ Thank you!
What was ur starting weight and end weight? Very nice
75 lbs down in 11 months with 20 hours of fasting per day. Love this way of life!
Awesome!
Absolutely amazing you are
Till now I have completed 35 hours of fasting and m still continuing to achieve 72 hr goal. Thank you this video motivated me alot💫
These videos remind me why I fast every day. I have gotten most of the benefits mentioned in the video. Many people think you are a freak if you tell them you fast, but you know better.
Fasting is amazing, absolutely changed my life. I've had all sorts of negative comments from uneducated people but they are now starting to get interested because what I've been doing shows! I look and feel better than ever. Since December I've not had a single processed food, high fat and protein diet, hardly any sugar, only drinking water and black coffee but fasting is a game changer! I'm a skinny guy anyway, yesterday I did a 14 mile walk across English countryside 21 hours into my fast, felt absolutely great, I always feel worse walking distance after eating!
Its been 44hrs , need some motivation to continue.i wanna say that this doesn't make you weak, infact im feeling more alive and fresh!
LEO Gaming you got this
@@Hel3na23 i hope so😌
It gets easier after day 3, you stop feeling hungry
I find it easier after the 36 hour mark. Everything before that is fighting the cravings (not to be confused with actual hunger). The most difficult part of fasting for me is breaking my fast. I ALWAYS binge eat after to the point where I can’t stop and consume more calories than I burned during the fast.
I just did it for 48 hours pretty easy but my mom bought me subway and I didn’t want to waste it lol it was only 600 calories though I’m starting again tm
In December I was 399. Started fasting and keto in February at 379. Now I am 273 lbs! In only 8 months!
I noticed when I fast, even though I haven't ate for 16 hours and feeling quite hungry, sometimes starving...I could barely eat half of what I normally eat.
Bingo
Fasting changed my life. Depression/anxiety is gone.
I dont fatigue at all anymore, I sleep like a baby now and lost a lot of belly fat. I have insane amount of focus and energy too.

Intermittent fasting saved my life, coming from someone who’s always struggled to eat healthy. I can’t stomach the idea of fruits and vegetables, always makes me throw up. Started doing intermittent fasting back in July and I’m already down a whopping 76lbs! I went from 308lbs to currently 232lbs. I crushed my goal of 250lbs and looking to hit 200lbs by the new year. God bless. ❤️ Thank you for giving me my life back. (I’ve also been working out 4-7 days a week)
I've been doing omad fasting 23:1 since July. I went from 223lbs to 208lbs and still losing fat!
So it actually helps?
@@stshx6353 yep
@@stshx6353 One Meal A Day is very effective but it takes a lot of discipline.

Frankly I’m surprised that you haven’t lost 50 lbs in that time. How much can you eat in an hour?
Love how you show research papers rather than just trash talk like most people after a quick Google search. Keep up the good work
Great video, thank you for posting it; very good information. I watched this a couple of years ago and started fasting. I do a couple of three-day fasts per year just to keep my body healthy and allow it to heal itself. I have since done a 5 and 7 day water only fast and feel fantastic. The best thing is the mental clarity and agility, the next best thing is not going to the bathroom and third, saving money and time not having to buy food or cooking. I must say that re-feeding after a long fast must be planned out and slow to allow your body to resume its functions of digesting food for energy. I always feel shaky on the third day after beginning a fast, at around 36 hours. I believe that this is due to my body switching from burning food to burning fat after using up all the stored glycogen in my body. Your liver stores toxins in fat to protect your organs until it can neutralize and get rid of them; sometimes you will feel sick or shaky when getting to this point but you are getting rid of those toxins, so drink an adequate amount of waters. I drink reverse osmosis water and use a pinch of Celtic Sea Salt to keep the necessary minerals coming into my body since I am not getting them through food, this will make you feel better and your systems work properly. I find that I have just as much energy as if I had eaten because fat is stored energy, but I don't exert myself too strenuously during fasting. Dr. Jason Fung, MD says that if you have at least 3 pounds of fat on your body you can do a 7-day fast, so just about anyone can fast to gain the benefits of autophagy and other benefits of fasting. If you are interested in fasting, look up Dr. Jason Fung, MD, Dr. Goldhamer ND, and Dr. Valter Longo.
Thank you for including the information about shaking - this is something I deal with during fasting and it's less talked about
One more fact : Do alternate day intermittent fasting to double the effect. Living the fasting lifestyle from past 6 years at 35 age I feel like 25.

I am going through these benefits right now. I started out at 430 lbs and now I am 399lbs. It has been about 2 weeks and half and I’ve made so many small meal changes that I know are healthy. I walk for about 30 mins to an hour about 3 or 4 times a weeks. Before I started this I had a very unhealthy lifestyle and diet. I used a sweat a lot when I had to go out to places and I hated it ..... it brought me so much attention and it was over all made my stress worst in front of people. Now I feel better and I am happier and less tired. The sweat is still there but it is far less because I am in a better state and I am glad for it.... I hope I will never go back and I will continue to push myself. I was thinking about making a channel.... tell me if it’s a good idea...
Go for it buddy 👍
Cooper Bandish Keep at it ! It does work ! I started out at 263.5 lbs in mid-June and I am now at 222.0 lbs in mid-September. I do intermittent fasting, eating between 18:00 and 20:00 and fasting the other 22 hours of the day. I combine that with Keto, that is eating more fat and cutting on sugars (less bread, rice and pasta and no pure sugar like cake or syrup). It's easy to cut on sugar when you still eat fat. I still eat potato chips but in my 2 allowed hours. I give myself a break on weekends but don't over indulge. It's hard the first week but it gets easier and easier as you body adapts. I'm 6'1 and my goal is to get to about 200 lbs. I should get there before the Holidays.
Sweating is a good thing😁

Do a little more research before you go for the Fast!!
Exceptional quality,professionalism and researched. I have dropped 110lbs with fasting.Keep the positive vibrations coming
I attempted a 3 day waterfast. Cracked at 50 hours. Funny thing is, I didn't crave nutrition, I wanted comfort-food. Didn't realize my relationship with food.
Daytime was alright, I kept busy. Nights were worse.. Had a hard time falling sleep. Fantasies about food came creeping in..
I was more calm and collected, felt lighter, anxiety was numbed down. Overall a good experience. Didn't know what to expect diving into it, but now I do- I'll succeed next time!
John Bang good luck in your fasting. Same thing happens to me while fasting. I always notice I’m not really hungry that much but just love to eat :)
50hrs sheesh you did great
Don't complain at least you can eat. I'm on the 21 day mucusless diet. I messed up my body so bad I consider this necessary. I can only drink water, teas, and green and orange fruit and vegetable juice. I'm good but, I'm always hungry. The devil is trying to break me. He tempts me all day long. But, I'm 1/2 way there. I'm not quitting now.... Don't quit this is for your own good health. You can do this.

Many years ago, the experts were saying that skipping meals was bad.
Science has changed.
He said "it hasn't been proved", There's not enough research", "benefits after fasting >24 hours" a thousand times so...
Yeah, gotta be careful with those "experts"...
Experts/doctors still say that skipping the three primary meals (so there are also secondary meals) is bad for our health. So basically they are saying that not eating all the time is bad.

Indeed. Although I am English (Christian) I have worked with Muslims for many years doing quite physical work. I quizzed them a lot about how they feel during Ramadan, and independently looked out for any signs of physical weakness or lack of mental clarity as a result of their fast. On the contrary, as far as I could tell, they seemed on 'top of their game' in every aspect and many were happy to with their weight loss, albeit in many cases short term. I used this as motivation to start an Intermittent fasting protocol. Early days, but I am down 10 lbs in 2 months. Blessings 👍
Not just dedicated to Muslims.

Lets quit calling it “fasting” and start calling it what it is...responsible eating. Most of us only need to eat healthy once a day. Eat to live not live to eat.
Very well said!!
It is kind of sad that we eat a lot when there's people who doesn't....
hold on there buddy, one healthy meal a day may be too less. Ive been testing this on myself. where I have been IF for a minimum of 16 to sometimes 19 hours a day. Its been one and a half month. Slowly im starting to notice my energy is becoming weaker. This may be due to the fact that ive tried veganism with it for the past month. Im gonna get back on the meat but with the same healthy eating habits for a month and see what the results will be. BTW no alcohol or drugs were taken during this period
Erdal E are you eating enough calories during your eating window?
@@miguelquintero3796 Ye quick update, I was getting weaker even during workouts. Man it took my full focus to do exercises perfect. and I mean full concentration. Upped my fats quite a bit with olive oils, guac and coconut oil. Cant deny i had the best workout of my whole IF period the day after I got in way more fats
I’m on day 3 of my 14-day fast, definitely the hardest it terms of hunger, but afterwards it gets easier and easier
Who else watching this during the month of Ramadan(fasting)?😀
I went homeless for a bit, so I naturally went a few days at a times without eating. Fast forward to present day, that habit stayed with me. I normally just eat once a day, sometimes once every two days. I feel healthy and energetic, and choose healthy foods when I do eat. I am on the light side, (155 pounds), but I haven't gone up or down from that in a long time. I usually weight less in the summer and more in the winter. This is an interesting video, thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much! This was yours first video I have seen and now I'm watching others. Thaks to your video I started fasting a working out again after 10 years of getting fat. I'm 39 and in 6 weaks I get from 114kg to 103 today..
Absolutely awesome video. I have been doing intermittent fasting for years, researched it fairly extensively and have convinced several people to adopt it themselves. This is definitely the best video that I have seen that clearly explains exactly what fasting is, why it works, AND addresses the various concerns people have regarding it. Not only that, but you actually acknowledge what the science does and does not support, and to what extent. Thanks a lot and keep up the great work!
You're amazing! Thank you so much! Your videos helped me a lot, I used to be overweight (100kg) and now I'm 65kg! I also workout and your tips really worked!
Can u you help me teach ?
@@davidbilla09 Ok so perhaps the main thing for me was my diet and the most important thing which worked and is still working, was monitoring my caloric intake, I reduced sugar Haha oreos were an enemy and I started working out. Strength training and cardio both helped.
How long did it take ?

I'm 74 years of age. 4 months ago I weighed 100 kg. I was diagnosed with high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, heart problems, high cholesterol and rheumatoid arthritis. I was grossly obese. I started 12 hours IF. I no longer eat bread, rice, pasta and potatoes. I'm am now 79 kg and counting toward my goal weight of 65kg. I am no longer diabetic and no longer metformin dependent. My blood pressure is normal and so is my cholesterol. Arthritis is a blink from the past and I'm feeling better, healthier and beautiful.i am now on 22hours IF which I progressed to over the last two months with a two hour feeding window. I have found balance with my lifestyle and I have embraced my intermittent fasting as my happy place. Go you health champions, never say never.
you healed your arthritis through fasting? why do you not eat carbs
I fast 18 hours a day. I can’t imagine anything different at this point
Hi Elizabeth. For me I eat between 18:00 and 20:00. Once you get used to it, it gets easier.
Question? what if I eat a healthy breakfast and fasten afterwards for a long period of time, will I get the same outcomes?
benjamin pazrosas unfortunately no
You only attain the benefits of fasting after 12 hours eating a breakfast breaks your fast so begins your eating window
I see thank you.
elizabeth BB what if u just eat a breakfast once a day, eat for that 2 hours, and then fast the other 22?
Thank you for this video. As a Muslim, I have been fasting due to my religious belief. Now I can see that fasting really have good effects according to science as well.
I just started fasting, although I'm not considered fat. I still felt unhealthy, so I decided to fast. So far, I've lost 4 pounds, and I can honestly say I feel much more energy than usual. Fasting is the way to go
Ramadan is going on so I’m fasting from sunrise to sunset. Also every 2 days I run 3 miles outside, which is helping me lose weight faster
Alhamduliallah
Alhumdulillah Allah almighty bestowed us with this holy month
May Allah reward you for your fast.
I fast for Ramadan, but I cannot fast and run for 3 miles! Your good because only you and my friend do it, so you guys are amazing 😂
@@ansubadjie2381 some areas have more fasting time than other areas... My country's fasting time usually goes around 14 to 15 hours... Some areas have fasts upto 21 hours... So depends if you have time to do so... I go to gym after 3 hours of breaking fast
Prolonged fasting does wonders for your skin. Dark spots vanish skin becomes lighter
Thank you for getting right to the information and speaking quickly. Well done Sir
That focus and productive part is true for me. I'm on OMAD :)
Excellently explained. I often do 48 hr fasts and as hard as it is to do i feel amazing afterwards and it really stimulates my system to get into its fat burning state.
Wow! Fasting (7:32), is a worship in Islam, it makes us fast, a full month annually, and (fior the more pious) many days a month, the rest of the year !!
"Does He who created not know, while He is the Subtle, the Acquainted?" (Quran 67:14)
{ أَلَا يَعۡلَمُ مَنۡ خَلَقَ وَهُوَ ٱللَّطِيفُ ٱلۡخَبِيرُ }[ الملك: ١٤ ]
as a Muslim , been fasting since I was a kid (no water, no food), starting at 3 Am until 7 Pm ,that's over 16 hours , I'm fasting right now and before I break my fast I go to the gym at 5.30 Pm but I only workout small muscle groups until The month of fasting(Ramadan) is over , I got to say it's really healthy
Muslims are blessed to have this holy month.... Not it gives rest to the body but cleanliness to soul as well
@@jalalahmed9167 Alhumdullilahi rabbil Alamein
no water is pretty bad

So I gave up on fasting and developed a slight drinking problem 😒
Fasting for 14 days and beyond results are magical
2nd week of fasting and I'm already down 9 pounds👍
That's great my bro lost so much weight just fasting for like 1 week. I lost weight over fasting for long periods of time.

So basically this is the answer for a healthy and happy life
I'm fasting 72 hours and then eating once and repeat.. Feels great
Fasting 2 Live I just started my 72 hour fast. The longest I’ve gone has been 50 hours
So only eat a few times a week and will keep it this way for life?
how has been your weight?
@@Texas_Cruiser ikr sounds crazy you're basically water fasting for life and only eating to survive at this point
@@edxander7169 why does it bother you tf
Wow fasting is the ultimate way, to live longer, look better, and healthier. I just started fasting on my own about 3 weeks ago, and i kinda like it, everyday i only eat boiled potato and boiled egg every 4pm on the afternoon, i lost 7 kilos, and now i am ready to try a full 2 days fast for a better results.
When you start fasting and start watching the food channel lol true torture
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
lol I'm the same way. For whatever reason, when I fast I often find myself looking up channels and videos ln RUclips that have to do with making and eating food. I do that when I'm not fasting, too. But it's probably something I shouldn't do when I am.
Try making food for the kids the whole time every night.)
@@jajupa78
I can see how that would be a tough situation, too.
I purposely watch food video while fasting. Lol
As a Muslim who lives in North America and fast 18.H a day.... thanks for the info 👍🏾

HEALTH IS YOUR WEALTH
I’ve been fasting for a year, one day a week for a month, then 2 days together once a week for a month. I do it for God mostly, anyways fasting breaks food addiction and bad eating habits, I stopped gaining weight, I also cut out a lot of meats, pork beef lamb everything but white meat. Fasting is good for shadow work meaning disciplining your low self and becoming ONE. You hear your true self more, you make better decisions. Just don’t do it for image wise do it to tap into your higher self. Peace be with you my betheren 🌹
D.A. Juel I just got thru Praying to Christ, Which I do 3 times a day on my knees but, It says to "Pray Without Ceasing." in the book of (1st Thessalonians 5:16). Anyway. I am not posting you to teach you about God because from what I read in your post, You already know him. In my pray this morning, Outside of all the things I prayed about, I decided to pray to God for someone that will understand what I started on Saturday night from 12:00 am until 3;00 pm Monday afternoon. You might notice that that is exactly 16 hours. D.A. I have never done this before in my life. I am 66 years old. I weighed my self on Friday. I was 201. Today an hour ago I weighed myself again. Now I weigh 195? Is it possible to lose 5 lbs in just 2 days? Anyway, Here is where I need you help. Because you have been Fasting for a whole year, One day a week for a month, Then 2 days together once a week for a month. And you do it for God. This is exactly why I started to do. Plus I am trying to kill to addictions to 2 medications, So. For me I much stay into the word of God. Please feel free to just say, Larry. I can't help you if I am bothering you. I will understand. I was interested in you mainly because of something you said in your post above. You were eating lots of meats. So did I until Saturday at 12:00 am. I was eating steak 3 times a week, Or, Pork every 3 weeks. And I am always chewing on Beef Jerky. I don't like Lamb at all. I was eating everything but White meat because I can't stand the dryness of White meat. That is why I never like Chicken Breast. How do you eat that White Meat? Do you moist it up somehow? And, Do you eat fried food? Or, Do you eat your meats grilled or broiled? There is one more thing. What am I doing while I am going thru the 16 hour fast everyday since I am on my vacation right now? I am drinking water but, All thru the fast from the time I wake up at 4:00 am? I have a 10 ounce warm water glass filled with 6 other things which I am sure you have heard of. I warm the 10 ounces of water up for one minute. When I take it out of the microwave I put these 6 items into the warm water. (1). Squeeze half a Lemon. (2). A teaspoon of Cayenne Pepper. (3). A pinch of Black Pepper. (4). A tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar. (5). A tablespoon of Honey. (6). A teaspoon of Turmeric Powder. I drink this thru the Fast. At 3:00 pm I will eat a bit of Salad & Fruit with grilled Salmon. I know I should not eat a lot and get full. How much should I eat after this 16 hour Fast? Like right now I it is different then yesterday. At this same time yesterday I was not feeling dizzy like I am right now. I was not sweating like I am right now. Does this get harder every day? Thank you. Please Reply!
Larry Long Hi Larry and God bless you, listen, you’re on the right path to purifying your eating habits. I’m no health profession and what I say you shouldn’t go off by because If you’re on a lot of medication I suggest you eat light, such as you mentioned salmon and salad. I’m on medication and I found eating nothing on meds all day kinda leaves me fatigue and irritable, because I’m loyal and naive I just go without food because I don’t want to break my word to the father, which I’m sure he doesn’t agree with but I manage to get through it. Being a 66 year old is a big accomplishment I must say and wanting to change is an excellent achievement well done, I don’t eat chicken breasts due to it being dry and uncomfortable to eat, I use chicken thighs in stir fry’s and fish now and again, but even sometimes I don’t enjoy the taste of chicken so I won’t bother cooking unless I have dinner company. The best man to deal with is God so maybe when you pray next kindly slip a word in about guidance when it comes to your particular fasting, you don’t have to be hardcore like me and totally eat nothing.. I’m 33 and still got enough stamina to feed a nation, because your well matured I wouldn’t go doing anything that jeopardises your well being. When I first started fasting I asked God to guide me, I get bad feels whenever I go grab some bad food, it’s like the Holy Ghost is working on me too. Anyho Larry keep striving to eat better and also read certain nutritional books just to fill in the gaps with your eating plans. Be safe and bless your road to salvation. Amen and Jah be with you!
God gave me the will and the strength to fast on water only for 30 days, one of the best experiences in my life:)
@@DAJuel God Bless you and thank you so much for the things you said. Amen.
I'm 20 hours into my fast and I can already see the light
4:04 You don't require more research on autophagy and its effects. The Japanese scientist Yoshinori Ohsumi won an Nobel Prize for proving it.
I don't think he proved that it de-aged human beings.
nobel prizes apparently aren't worth much, Obama got one for peace while simultaneously killing people in 7 different countries. They have lost all credibility.
@@zarroth Obama got that nobel for his work in campaigning for nuclear weapons reduction. The prizes as far as I know are given out as a means to invoke competition. I don't think those are given out to represent overall perfection.
Your videos are so great! Thanks for this wonderful information.
starting a 3 day water fast today!! I want to prove to myself I can stick to something, lose weight & be healthier ✨
also I’m rewarding myself with a dinner date night with my bf on friday so tryna keep that as motivation 😂
Day 1 - 10 HRS into fast
weight: 10st 12.8lbs
feelings/notes: mild/moderate hunger pangs from the second I woke up and a loud growling stomach but feeling motivated to keep going! kinda just want a bowl of coco pops but it’s not worth it lmao
(Nighttime update - I’m so hungry & want to give in but using willpower to keep going!!)
Day 2 - 34 HRS into fast
weight: 10st 8.0lbs (!!)
feelings/notes: I feel very energetic this morning, not even hungry!! I’ve been productive and achieved a lot since I woke up, even been dancing around my living room lmao! It’s weird cause most people describe day two as a slump but I feel opposite, yesterday was hard for me and I was so hungry and kept getting cravings. But I’m glad I didn’t cave because I’m feeling good today and I’ve lost nearly 5lbs in one day?! I’m supposed to be meeting a friend today so might be harder to be around someone who is eating but currently I feel good and confident and happy!
I’ll keep updating this!! ✨
You survived man?
@@dejan1453 no day 3

Fasting makes me look way leaner and crazy vascular
Yea me too, and idk if it was because of fasting, but I actually grew a little bit taller and both my feet and hands grew significantly. I used to be some what fat, but when after trying intermitten fasting, I got leaner and got more bonier, in a good way

Ive been fasting for a month and lost 25 pounds , Love it !
Amazing video - thanks a lot! I fast every 3-4 months for up to 7 days without solid food, drinking only tea, filtered water, raw cacao and veggie broth. I can literally feel how my body is healing. I can confirm that energy is rising even after 5 days without food. For me it’s the best and most effective way to stay young, vital & healthy :)
