Wow. I've been eating one meal a day all my life, practically. I never called it fasting. My mother called it "dangerous". I'm 68 now and have zero health problems and still have tons of energy.
I eat once a day. I don’t feel hunger during the day. No one around me understands it. Everyone hassles me about it. I totally understand this guy. The spike mid day nap from lunch, is exactly about the insulin spike.
Honestly Im reading a book called why we sleep by a guy named Matthew Walker, and he disagrees. He was actually on the JRE podcast. Basically the midday lul is actually very biological in humans for some reason despite diet. Personally, I think its evolutionary to avoid the hottest part of the day
If it works, and your being honest with yourself about it working, then screw what people say. Our bodies are incredibly complicated chemistry experiments, anyone claiming to fully understand every angle of our bodies function is a liar.
Adrian Octavio you’re wrong. Average lifespan for hunter gatherers was only so short because it was skewed by high infant mortality. If they made it past infancy, then they would often go on to live just as long as we do in the developed world, while being much healthier. There is a lot of anthropological research on this. Look it up and stop being ignorant. To think our ancestors regularly would die at or before 30 is just silly.
Totally believe in this. I've never eaten three meals per day as an adult. Always felt it's a social construct based on marketing. So much of our eating habits are programmed.
It comes from when we were an agricultural society doing hard labor. Most of us no longer require the caloric intake of 3 meals especially if we work at desk jobs.
Hehe I think of that too.. I fast for 12-16 hours a day. Have been doing this for 3 months.. And I have noticed so many health benefits and weight loss. I wasn't overweight to start with. But am now in the healthiest state I've possibly ever been at 48 years old.
About the same I stopped for about 3 months at the end of last year b/c of school and work schedules but I picked it up again and in the last year I have gone from 262 to 185 all from fasting. And I still can eat ice cream every night!!!
I have practiced OMAD for several years, fasting 23 hours a day & have never felt better. The benefits for me have been incredible & I can’t imagine ever not incorporating fasting into my life.
16 hour fast is honestly fantastic . I always felt uncomfortable and had stomachs pains waiting 3 meals a day ( same calorie intake ) . Now I just feel like me all the time .
The thing I've realized since drastically reducing my carb intake is that my body adjusted, and now when I eat a lot of carbs I feel much hungrier the next day. Sticking to veggies, a bit of fruit and mostly good proteins and fats has pretty much changed my life. Started out at 246 and been 170-174 for the past year now.
@@aaabbbccc985 We don’t need carbs. Our bodies can produce their own glucose via the liver once glycogen stores run out. Also, avoid starchy vegetables at all costs! They will quickly take up carbs/net carbs :)
I went about 6 months with intermittent fasting with walking for about 1.5 hours a day (to and back from college) and had lost about 22kilos. Totally shocked when I weighed myself I had no idea what I did to lose this weight. All I did was: -Cut out junk food (the unnecessary sugars) -Walk every day -16hrs intermittent fasting (skip breakfast) It works. Seriously. Control your hormones and you will go places you've never been.
Yeah man. It's actually unhealthy to eat 4 hours before bed during digestion anyways. Most days have a healthy dinner, don't eat before bed. When you wake up feel free to have sugar and carb free coffee, tea, energy drink, etc, skip breakfast and eat a meal or two in a 4 to 8 hour window. If you have a healthy low carb/sugar lunch and dinner fasting is a breeze. 4 hour fast after dinner, 8 hour good night's sleep, then eat 4 hours after getting up and you're good to go. It's easy after you adjust and your stomach shrinks. I'm on ketomwoth intermittent fasting right now and I'm down from 202 to 184 in 2 and a half weeks. Good luck. Thomas Delauer and Eric Berg would be beneficial to youtube.
I started intermediate fasting along with carnivore diet 6 weeks ago and I've lost 26 lb and have no cravings absolutely amazing! And it was easy from day one
Fasting + low carb + light exercise at 47 took me from 290 lbs (6ft 5in) to 262 in 2 months. I am 47 but felt 67 as I felt pain in most of my joints. My back would be stiff and painful after a 20 min car ride. My foot had a pain when I walked that would never get better......TODAY ALL GONE! I'm eating one low to no carb meal a day until I reach my goal of 225 lbs. Fasting has for me been the miracle everyone wished existed. I'm feeling great now. I can't wait to reach my target weight I have not seen sense high school. I plan to do 18-6eating window eating two low carb meals a day once my goal is reached.
@@johninphx9360 kind of a personal thing to ask but can you post a results video when you finish? I am considering doing the ADF. I’m just curious to see how it worked for you since you were able to drop weight significantly. Personally I am not looking to make as much of a change but I want to see if it will spare my muscle gains and burn mostly fat
@@bonefisch6657 belly fat is my struggle right now. I feel like that's all that's left. RUclips search Dr. Fung and DR Berg. They are the main sources I used to learn . 20 hr fast is not even a thi g anymore. It all automatic. I don't even think about food anymore before about 18 hrs. Meat and salad for 90% of my meals. No bread rice potatoes. Just meat and salad. In exchange I eat what ever I want when we go out or spcl. Occasion. Maybe once a month. I'll still eat the one meal but don't feel bad if it's pizza or chicken parm.
I’m a recovering heroin addict I have 9 months clean Iv totally changed my life what I eat and I’m literally doing my first fast now just past 24 hours and will be going sleep wake up and break my fast thanks for the vidoes changing life’s
@@charlescarter4608 because you are cringe. Why u trying to hit on girls on youtube comment section. Maybe hit the gym and shave off the neckbeard u mighy get chicks
Ok…so I have hashimotos and I spend a good deal of time on you tube trying to find solutions. I ran across prolonged fasting and thought “well, it’s free and worth a shot!”. I fasted on water for 3 days. Here’s what happened: I wasn’t hungry at all after about 6:00 PM on day 1. So the hunger goes away. Day 2 my brain fog completely went away and I felt like a freaking genius. I actually looked for opportunities to talk to people because I’ve felt brain dead for so long. Day 3 I noticed the weight loss and an energy boost. I almost kept going, I felt so great. So now I fast 2 days a week just to maintain that energy level and combat the severe brain fog. It’s worth a shot, folks. I think what we’re eating is messing us up.
I do 16 hour intermittent fasting and my biggest benefit is that I have no diarrhea or stomach upset. It is really good. Earlier, I used to have diarrhea or stomach upset 3/4 times a year.
It blows my mind that people make fasting 16 hours sound even remotely difficult. You could literally just eat between 10 am and 6 pm and make it work. That's an early snack/late breakfast, lunch, snack again, and then dinner at 6. How is that hard?
Of course it’s not difficult once you make that shift, but before I made that shift I ate dinner then kept eating until I went to bed. Eating enough of the right food to feel satiated and committing to no snacking takes a bit of discipline from your average person who has been dependent on carbs.
I started at 347. Ive been fasting for minimum 16 hours for the past 2 and a half weeks. Usually only eat 1 meal a day or about 1800 calories. Ive lost 22lbs already and i feel better mentally and physically. The first 3 days were rough. Pounding headache and felt like i was starving. So glad i stuck with it and im gonna see where this will take me
@nehemiahjuan950 and remind u I work at a pizza shop where I'm on my feet all day but not too physical. I lost all this weight from changing my diet and fasting. I don't exercise much at all. Dint go to the gym or nothing. I started walking a couple weeks ago that's about UT
I am on day 5 of 7 of a water fast to lose weight. My biggest take away so far is knowing that moving forward.. i don't have to eat all the time. Hunger is only temporary. It goes away muchhhh faster than you'd think. At least for me. Everyone maybe different. I also feel like I have more energy and I feel this is the most focused I've been in years.
I fast 23 hours a day. Benefits that ive noticed: more energy, weight loss (really just due to caloric restriction) and my skin complexion has improved greatly
@@Donnie-sg2cj It most certainly is not just calories in and calories out. Fasting over an extended period of time heals the body and improves insulin sensitivity in those people that are resistant. You might not have any issues with this so it might seem the same to you but for a lot of people when they eat food they spike thier insulin 4-5x as high as others. Fasting corrects this. So OMAD can really help those people with those issues.
I’m on 23 hour fast too, or (OMAD). Once a week I’ll do a 48 . Lost 30lbs in a month . I work out a little too. The overall feeling I get is great . You’ll quit being hungry , had to work my way up to this - start small if you’re new 12,16 hr fasts . Once you get through the walls you’ll find a better & new you. Not being a big ball of stress will totally change your life , Joe is spot on .
What Joe was saying at the end : you will find this nice psychological momentum that will allow you to kick anything’s ass . It led me to quitting smoking , then quitting chewing , all the right shit comes out of my mouth instead of saying stuff I regret , I’m not great at verbalizing these things but there is true power in it . I try to show my friends but beware people are gonna think you are crazy but f em . Do what works for you
I had a great great grand uncle that smoked and drank every day of his life. The one thing that interested me about that fact that he lived to 103 was that he only ate once a day. He's the only family member to have lived that long by about 10 years to anyone else.
My brother fainted in the shower on his 5th day of fasting, he hit his head and was completely knocked out, his face covered the bathtub drain plug so it overfilled with water. Thankfully his girlfriend heard his body collapse in the bathtub, it took her a few terrifying minutes to unlock the door with a hanger. Paramedics came, he was rushed to the ER where he had 7 staples to close his head wound, huge concussion, his potassium levels were dangerously low, and when the doctor asked him when was his last meal my brother said 5 days prior. The next day the doctors signed an emergency certificate and transported him to get a mental health evaluation, there he had a huge argument about his rights and they forcefully made him take sedative drugs, he pushed a therapist and was tranquilized like an animal! He was confined for 2 months, forced fed, given hundreds of pills, and when he was finally released I asked him how he felt. He said he was Hangry. I would of taken him to McDonald's but I was broke since I was fired for getting arrested trying to break my brother out of the nut house, so my brother and I decided to rob the doctor that forced him into the crazy house. Big mistake. The doctor had a gun in his car. He shot me, my brother, and turned the gun on himself. Now the three of us are ghosts and we haunt the fitness department in Walmart while eating flaming hot cheetos, microwavable chicken nuggets, and gummy bears. My brother is now a fat ass ghost. His girlfriend is now a lesbian. My dog fasted to death since I died and nobody fed him. My dog is heaven with Tupac playing Zelda: Ocarina of Time til the end of time eating gummy bears.
I’ve just done a 3 day fast, due to depressive reasons. No joke, I’m not sure if it’s just because I’m still in it. But it feels life changing. This is how I was supposed to feel. The motivation and just energetic presence I feel I have is just naturally massive rn. I feel more social and I feel like exercise is natural. Winning.
I eat once a day for about 1 hour. Any eating through our the day, I'm sluggish and ready to sleep. @ 50, I don't gain weight, no matter what I eat and tons of energy. Also helps with my arthritis and tendonitis. Took me awhile to ignore my brain/hunger pains but so glad I did!
I did 24 hour fasts for about 3 months and dropped over 40 lbs in just one summer, I still fast to this day to maintain my weight but I often do 16 hour fasts to prevent getting underweight! Great video and top to beginner dieters!
Joe is so wise to say the foods you eat have a direct effect on your energy and mood and that can have a profound effect on how your personality is expressed.
I did a 36 day water fast in 2021. My goal was to go for 40 days. I only quit, because I contracted Covid-19, and had the absolute worst nausea that I’ve ever had in my life. I sipped chicken bone broth, which, unfortunately broke my water fast. I did learn quite a bit though, even though I didn’t make it to 40 days, water fasting. My weight at the start was 286.8 pounds. 7 days later, I weighed myself, and the scale read, 264lbs, a total of 22.8lbs lost in a week! Probably 17-18lbs was water loss, then probably 4-5lbs fat, then the last tiny amount of weight, was muscle. I felt incredible! Also, I finally achieved the, “No more hunger zone”, as I put it. The only thing I’d do from time to time, was take a pinch of, “Real Salt”, for some salt and other essential trace minerals. I only had water, no coffee, tea, nothing else. I took blood readings, twice per day, morning and evening, for glucose and keytone levels. It was interesting, my blood glucose stayed between, 95 an 64 and after about the fifth day my blood keystones, by day 7 of my water fast, were 4.1! I was in serious fat burning mode! My keystones were always over 4 and one time went as high as, 6.9! My final weight-in on day 36: 237.4lbs. A total weight loss, of 49.4lbs, an average daily weight loss, of 1.37lbs per day. Had I not gotten stricken badly with Covid-19, I know I could have continued for 80 total days, with only water. If my weight loss average was consistent, in 80 days, I would have lost 109.6lbs and weighed my healthy weight, of 177.2lbs. Look up the RUclipsr: “Fasting Fat Man.” This guy will amaze you! Peace.
@@jpg1212 After day 6-7, I only felt better, no lethargy, no hunger at all. If I wouldn’t have gotten Covid-19, and things would have keep going the same, I believe I just would have gone past the 40 day fast mark. I’ll never know…
When I got Covid, I fasted through it and feel as if it was the best thing I could have done. Putting food in a body that is sick doesn't seem like a good idea to me. Let the body naturally deal with being sick and leave digestion for another time.
Fasting helped me realize how much time I eat and how it make me feel like shut. Fasting in the beginning sucks but when you get over the hump its like having a clear mind clear gut
I've always ate only once per day. Everyone used to tell me that's why I was obese. Now it's the greatest diet fad. I've lost and gained weight eating that way. Moderation. That's what works (for me, anyway).
GEORGE.W. BIATCH. "Genetics" has very little to do with it. Show me those fat people from 100 years ago... Protip, you can't. Genetics will determine metabolism. But the body when in a fasted/starvation state will cling on to body fat. Multiple small meals a day will lean a person out incredibly fast. Because the metabolism goes through the roof
I disagree! Genetics does play a role in my opinion. 100 years ago, people did not eat multiple small meals a day. They were lucky to eat one big meal, if that. You are countering your own assertion. The over-eating epidemic is directly correlated with obesity, and that is a fairly recent phenomenon in human history. So, yes, there are people in fairly advanced society that are more or less likely to be prone to become obese because of their genetics. You put 2 fat individuals together and you get a fat baby; add a few McDonald and Burger King on every street corners and you get a fat town! Intermittent fasting has produced great results for total body fat loss and no, it is not a fad but rather a realignment with they way Man has been sustaining himself for most of Human Evolution.
Fasting regularly and using a treadmill desk at a 10% incline for 4-6 hours a day with next to no processed sugar and its the best weight loss I've ever had
I recently did a 3 day fast where I fasted until dinner time and I was surprised at how good I felt. The first day I could feel my body going through withdrawals and had a pretty bad headache but the next two days I felt amazing. It’s funny because my purpose of the fast wasn’t for anything weight loss or health related but more of a way to get close to God as I’m a born again Christian. However, I am considering adopting this into a way of my every day life as I really enjoyed the benefits of fasting.
I did a 11 day water fast at the beginning of this year and it was the best thing i could have ever done. No more acid reflux, stomach ache, way better sleep and etc. People keep telling me i was crazy but only if they knew
Biff well i basically just stopped cold turkey. No transition. I was smoking and drinking alot and wanted to reset my body back to where it needed to be. The first two to three days were rough but after that everyday i felt better and better. My mind was so clear and i felt so motivated to get shit done. I could have went even longer if i wanted. I broke the fast with watermelon and strawberries the first day then had salads for a week then started with chicken and fish for protein. I still feel the benefits from that fast 3 months later
Animal products cause build ups of mucus which blocks the bodies path ways and causes a lot of cancers. That's in laymans terms. If you want to look deeper into it go and research DR. Sebi. The benifits are truly amazing.
I lost 12 kg since September 18 with intermittent fasting. Nothing worked for me and this just seems to suit my body. I also stopped doing cardio - I only do strength training and yoga. I know it doesn't work for everyone but it's suits me perfectly and combined with strength and flexibility, my body has changed completely.
I just started my 16 hours fast 5 days ago and have already lost 15 pounds. Mind is clear. Less fog. Energy rising and I feel the need to keep myself busy. I’m excited for the future. Making this my new lifestyle

Back in the 90's we called this the E-Plan diet. Spending Friday night till Sunday on ecstasy dancing at raves. Apart from the crushing mood swings during the week I've never looked so good...
I did a fast for 3 whole days. Only had water with some salt. After 24 hours, I was not hungry at all. Felt really alert, calm and motivated. When I broke my fast, adding back food in slowly, I did become a bit irritable immediately for about a day, but afterwards for weeks I felt so good. I also lost 4 pounds in 3 days and I'm 43. Also saw noticeable improvements in skin, reduced hunger cravings, and have more muscle mass.
Just did a 42 hour fast and I feel amazing. Fairly new to it but I plan on doing it again in a few weeks. Just consumed water with sea salt and supplement magnesium and potassium helped with the lack of electrolytes and trace minerals.
I've been doing average 18 hour fasts consistently for over a decade. 36 years old, blood work excellent and in great shape. Read the warrior diet, that book got me hooked on the idea of how humans should live and eat. Hope the best for those who are learning about fasting.
Currently in the middle of a 24 hour fast [currently on hour 16] and needed a boost to get through it. This is exactly what I needed. Thanks for the upload!
So happy RUclips algo brought This video back to me... I just like to express my sincere gratitude to Joe Rogan n Doctor Peter Attia... It was this video that basically change my life because it open my eyes about intermittent fasting.. All my life i have struggle with weight especially maintaining my weight.. and since in my junior high scool (now 41) i have also have stomach ulcers n fatty liver issue.. When started Intermittent fasting 3 years ago i only noticed after more than a year i never had any case of stomach ulcer anymore.. and upto this 3rd year i remember only 2 incidents that i have some minor stomach ulcer.. And within this 3 years i have lost 18kg (39lbs) n maintain it..
Been doing intermittent fasting for over a year now and I'm in the best shape of my life! I started at 200 pounds, dropped to 145 at my lowest and now I'm 150 trying to get to 160! It feels amazing to be able to function 16 - 35 hours without food!
I fast regularly. Every Monday 24-36 hrs and at the beginning of each month 72 hrs. People always give me a ton of crap. They think I’m crazy doing some kind of voodoo crap. Whoever I talk to about fasting is always very hostile towards this topic. They always say “oh that’s crazy, that’s impossible”. But, I’m the one getting back in shape, becoming more and more chiseled and healthy! Stay strong people!
Yes people who don’t understand intermittent fasting and don’t bother to look into the subject do see it like it’s such a bad thing. Like they think humans have always been eating for every hour of their waking day since the beginning of time. I had one friend who told me it would ruin my metabolism. Well 2 years on I am in good shape and intermittent fasting is now a way of life and seems so natural to me. My weight has been stable since I lost the weight I needed, I have freedom to eat what I like without fear of gaining the weight back. That friend is still around 100lb over weight and has been on and off ‘diets’. Edit: When I said intermittent fasting I just meant fasting in general.
I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia was on a cocktail of medications every single day, I was sick from the meds and also drowsy from the strong meds, I started fasting just over a year ago now and now I am In remission I don’t have any medications now and I am can finally start living again!

OMAD is where it's at man. OMAD + Keto and 3L of water has expedited my fat loss substantially. When people mention Breakfast Lunch Dinner and snacks it seems so alien. I was making the scale error at 430lb+ and am falling into the 230s now!
Agreed! I've been doing the OMAD + Keto and I'm down 72 lbs in 5 months so far. The best part about it is I eat until I'm fuller than shit which is a big thing for me. THIS SHIT WORKS!
@@LolDarrellLol well done my brother that's so awesome to hear! The truth is in front of everyone yet nobody allows themselves to see, but cases such as yours can help so many people
It's Day #2 of me doing OMAD 23/1. I felt better mentally and physically. My eczema starting to clear up slowly, it almost turn back into my old normal skin. So far, I haven't got any long ass headache that won't gone until I sleep. My negativity just went down, I feel like I just wanna live positive and healthy. My life before OMAD was disorganized, depressed, stuck in a rut, miserable, pretty much feel like literal shit. Now it's starting to get better. I have a feeling that I probably gonna be end up diabetic anyway, if I continue to live like I used to. So, might as well doing OMAD the rest of my life than injecting insulin to my body every single day. Phew, can't imagine me doing that shit.
As you get older your digestive system takes longer to digest and your capability to workout as vigorously and often as you did when you were younger also declines so in my opinion fasting serves to offset the negative consequences of having a slower digestive system and working out less vigorously. It has definitely helped me to lose some weight but more importantly a significant amount of body fat and the only place that I really accumulate fat is in my stomach....
I fast everyday 18 hours to 20 and some times i don’t eat for two days my memory just amazing my problem solving skills having gone up so much it’s crazy
Yea. I like take exams on a 24-36 hour fast now because of the damn mental clarity it gives me. It is insane. I honestly thought I had ADHD but with fasting and removing simple carbs my mental clarity has gone up. Honestly some days I want to just skip eating because I have better moods on that day as well as the mental clarity.
I get jealous when I hear about all the benefits from some people. I have tried fasting off & on for over three years, all different levels, and all different nutrition sources with all the different hour levels of fasting. I get negative results across the board, without exception.
@@1325cmith You're going to find many different pieces of advice, and nearly as many guarantees. At the end of the search, your only real solution is to experiment and find what your body wants. We all work a little differently, what works 90% for one guy will post low to no yield for you, and vice versa. It's individual to each person.
Elite Clinical Research nope, exactly wrong lol. Well, diet is very important of course. But the mindset would be number one. You can eat the healthiest food all you want... But if you're under severe stress, you're fucked. And don't you tell me that eating healthy food removes stress and that type of shit. Yes, eating healthy is definitely a starting point if ur mentally fucked and been eating junk food. But diet alone wont help
Elite Clinical Research technically you can lose weight no matter what you eat as long as you eat below BMR , but yes diet helps a lot, whole grains and veggies keep you full longer than white carbs and sweets
Good conversation. I remember being overweight from age 7 to 13. I fasted basically to lose the weight. Only ate 800 calories a day and noticed huge energy spikes, more power and became sharper like the doctor mentioned in this video. I was always better than others at sports or academics just because of how my engine ran. I believe fasting and eating one meal a day was big time for my success. Still to this day I fast normally at least 24 hours then eat and repeat.
@@AnmolMishra946 you underestimate the real power of eating big portions. I eat, what i used to eat spread out, in ONE BIG MEAL at night and it is not even hard, i enjoy it so much more.
I’ve been in Ketosis for a year. I eat once a day with a snack later in the day on occasion. I just fasted for 72 hours very easily. The third day I was in a wonderful mood. I highly recommend intermittent fasting.
I totally get the freedom from food that he is talking about. I'v been on Keto and fasting 16/8 for 7 monts now, and I don't feel the stress from having to eat at a certain time anymore. If I have to skip a meal and prolong my fast to a 20/4 I don't stress, I'm not even hungry.
@@extrasmalldoll654 so many athletes and celeb trainers say to eat 6 small meals a day eating every 2-3 hrs day. I never had success or lost weight eating even 3 meals a day.
Anita Knight Exactly. You have to get healthy to lose weight, NOT lose weight to get healthy. Its opposite of what we’ve been taught. Try 2 meals or 1 a day if you haven’t already.
@@extrasmalldoll654 yeah that's my plan to incorporate now doing one meal a day ; ). I was doing 2 meals a day. I was doing some water fasting. I did two 14 day water fasts no food only water. I feel like I'm intolerant to refined carbs and gluten. I have bad inflammation and hormonal imbalances with pcos.
I'm a type 1 diabetic who has been told since being diagnosed at 13 that I need to eat three meals a day with 4-5 servings of carbohydrates and a snack in-between meals plus a snack at bedtime with 2 servings of carbohydrates. Worst medical advise I've ever been given. Taking that approach turned my mind to mush and led me to do terribly in high school. Eating a massive breakfast spiked my blood sugar for several hours regardless of how much insulin I was doing(look up dawn phenomenon). With consistently high blood sugar you can't focus, think or function properly plus you get REALLY moody! At 27, Intermittent fasting has saved my life the past few months. I eat from 3 pm to 9 pm and my levels have never been more stable, I feel mentally sharper and I've dropped some weight. Sometimes doctors don't know what's best.
I'm so thankful that Joe presented intermittent fasting to me through youtube... I can't follow a diet but intermittent fasting is challenging but its so simple... it helped me a lot.. iv never been obese but it helped burn of that last layer of fat (I'm around12-13% body fat)
As a nurse I can tell you they fasting is the cornerstone of medical treatment. Everything from bowel obstructions to pancreatitis are basically cured by fasting and IV fluid hydration.
I may try this then because I have a lot to lose. If I lose weight without surgery is there I chance I won't have pile of saggy skin? Sorry to pick your brain on RUclips but I'm thinking I may have to save up for a surgery to remove unwanted skin as well. Right now I go 347 after losing 30 pounds and haven't seen any loose skin yet.
Giving your bowl a rest....or letting your pancreas basically readjust itself by going npo and only having iv fluids. Noooo shit that's going to help. Will also help a stomach ulcer..crohns or colitis flare...etc. it's what you do alllllll the other times that will cause those issues to not appear in the first place. Don't us " cured" anymore either....it's not a cure it's temporary relief. Thank God your not my nurse.
When i was in college i fasted a lot, the biggest benefit i noticed was a 22% increase in ability to pay tuition
It hurts cause it's true
GDL lmaoooo
Very nice! :)
Yup. Statement of the week. 😄

Yes, it says people can get by on limited amounts of food. It says nothing about not eating at certain times a day.
Adrian Octavio you’re wrong. Average lifespan for hunter gatherers was only so short because it was skewed by high infant mortality. If they made it past infancy, then they would often go on to live just as long as we do in the developed world, while being much healthier. There is a lot of anthropological research on this. Look it up and stop being ignorant. To think our ancestors regularly would die at or before 30 is just silly.

Totally believe in this. I've never eaten three meals per day as an adult. Always felt it's a social construct based on marketing. So much of our eating habits are programmed.
100% a marketing tactic for food/pharma industry.
Never thought about it this way.

It comes from when we were an agricultural society doing hard labor. Most of us no longer require the caloric intake of 3 meals especially if we work at desk jobs.

I have practiced OMAD for several years, fasting 23 hours a day & have never felt better.
The benefits for me have been incredible & I can’t imagine ever not incorporating fasting into my life.
16 hour fast is honestly fantastic . I always felt uncomfortable and had stomachs pains waiting 3 meals a day ( same calorie intake ) . Now I just feel like me all the time .
I did an 18 hr fast today and felt amazing. Consistent energy and mental awareness
Same
So if I do 16hr fasting at what hour do I eat during that 8 hr period? I’m new to fasting and def interested.
I fast all the time because I'm broke 🙈🙈🙈😂😂😂😂
With you there dude. Actively deciding to fast while broke makes me feel like I've got some power!
I'm that broke that sometimes for my supper I have sleep
This made me laugh the way you intended, sir. Good job gent.
Sometimes i eat sleep for dinner
But poor people in the US are usually fat pigs........aren't you on welfare?
The thing I've realized since drastically reducing my carb intake is that my body adjusted, and now when I eat a lot of carbs I feel much hungrier the next day. Sticking to veggies, a bit of fruit and mostly good proteins and fats has pretty much changed my life. Started out at 246 and been 170-174 for the past year now.
Nice job bro!
Same here; If I eat refined carbs I get terrible acid reflux and get a ravenous hunger a few hours later.
I know we need some carbs. Is it ok to get them from a baked potato or sweet potato?
@@aaabbbccc985 We don’t need carbs. Our bodies can produce their own glucose via the liver once glycogen stores run out. Also, avoid starchy vegetables at all costs! They will quickly take up carbs/net carbs :)
@Levi Ortiz thanks for your supportive, reasoned post. Well done.
I went about 6 months with intermittent fasting with walking for about 1.5 hours a day (to and back from college) and had lost about 22kilos. Totally shocked when I weighed myself I had no idea what I did to lose this weight. All I did was:
-Cut out junk food (the unnecessary sugars)
-Walk every day
-16hrs intermittent fasting (skip breakfast)
It works. Seriously. Control your hormones and you will go places you've never been.
The 16 hours includes the sleep, right?
Yeah man. It's actually unhealthy to eat 4 hours before bed during digestion anyways. Most days have a healthy dinner, don't eat before bed. When you wake up feel free to have sugar and carb free coffee, tea, energy drink, etc, skip breakfast and eat a meal or two in a 4 to 8 hour window. If you have a healthy low carb/sugar lunch and dinner fasting is a breeze.
4 hour fast after dinner, 8 hour good night's sleep, then eat 4 hours after getting up and you're good to go. It's easy after you adjust and your stomach shrinks.
I'm on ketomwoth intermittent fasting right now and I'm down from 202 to 184 in 2 and a half weeks. Good luck. Thomas Delauer and Eric Berg would be beneficial to youtube.

My back would be stiff and painful after a 20 min car ride. My foot had a pain when I walked that would never get better......TODAY ALL GONE!

Ok…so I have hashimotos and I spend a good deal of time on you tube trying to find solutions. I ran across prolonged fasting and thought “well, it’s free and worth a shot!”. I fasted on water for 3 days. Here’s what happened: I wasn’t hungry at all after about 6:00 PM on day 1. So the hunger goes away. Day 2 my brain fog completely went away and I felt like a freaking genius. I actually looked for opportunities to talk to people because I’ve felt brain dead for so long. Day 3 I noticed the weight loss and an energy boost. I almost kept going, I felt so great. So now I fast 2 days a week just to maintain that energy level and combat the severe brain fog. It’s worth a shot, folks. I think what we’re eating is messing us up.
I do 16 hour intermittent fasting and my biggest benefit is that I have no diarrhea or stomach upset. It is really good. Earlier, I used to have diarrhea or stomach upset 3/4 times a year.
Just completed a 48hr fast! Listened to my body and rocked with it. I’m Keto too. Love this guy...
Congratulations, you just tortured yourself for no reason. You must be having a great social life.
It blows my mind that people make fasting 16 hours sound even remotely difficult. You could literally just eat between 10 am and 6 pm and make it work. That's an early snack/late breakfast, lunch, snack again, and then dinner at 6. How is that hard?
Jason McCarty I do 16:8 everyday and it’s easy, I finish eating at 9PM and start again at 1PM. So simple and I sleep through most of it anyway
Some people are weak mentally.
it is easy, im doing it atm. but many people are so used to eating 24/7
Of course it’s not difficult once you make that shift, but before I made that shift I ate dinner then kept eating until I went to bed. Eating enough of the right food to feel satiated and committing to no snacking takes a bit of discipline from your average person who has been dependent on carbs.
what about doing the 5:2 method? Like eating normal healthy 5 days a week and then not eating for 24hours 2 times a week
I started at 347. Ive been fasting for minimum 16 hours for the past 2 and a half weeks. Usually only eat 1 meal a day or about 1800 calories. Ive lost 22lbs already and i feel better mentally and physically. The first 3 days were rough. Pounding headache and felt like i was starving. So glad i stuck with it and im gonna see where this will take me

I am on day 5 of 7 of a water fast to lose weight. My biggest take away so far is knowing that moving forward.. i don't have to eat all the time. Hunger is only temporary. It goes away muchhhh faster than you'd think. At least for me. Everyone maybe different. I also feel like I have more energy and I feel this is the most focused I've been in years.

@@tcantrell5301 day 1 sucks, every other day after is better.
I fast 23 hours a day. Benefits that ive noticed: more energy, weight loss (really just due to caloric restriction) and my skin complexion has improved greatly
More to do with insulin having a chance to come down during fasting rather than with caloric restriction
So basically one meal a day?
Alex M No, it actually has everything to do with calorie restriction.
Alex M Lose loss is calories in, calories out. Period.
@@Donnie-sg2cj It most certainly is not just calories in and calories out. Fasting over an extended period of time heals the body
and improves insulin sensitivity in those people that are resistant. You might not have any issues with this so it might seem the same to you but
for a lot of people when they eat food they spike thier insulin 4-5x as high as others. Fasting corrects this. So OMAD can really help those people
with those issues.

3:46 my favorite part of fasting. I eat every 24-36 hours, working my way up to 48. I have insane energy.
I had a great great grand uncle that smoked and drank every day of his life. The one thing that interested me about that fact that he lived to 103 was that he only ate once a day. He's the only family member to have lived that long by about 10 years to anyone else.
My brother fainted in the shower on his 5th day of fasting, he hit his head and was completely knocked out, his face covered the bathtub drain plug so it overfilled with water. Thankfully his girlfriend heard his body collapse in the bathtub, it took her a few terrifying minutes to unlock the door with a hanger. Paramedics came, he was rushed to the ER where he had 7 staples to close his head wound, huge concussion, his potassium levels were dangerously low, and when the doctor asked him when was his last meal my brother said 5 days prior. The next day the doctors signed an emergency certificate and transported him to get a mental health evaluation, there he had a huge argument about his rights and they forcefully made him take sedative drugs, he pushed a therapist and was tranquilized like an animal! He was confined for 2 months, forced fed, given hundreds of pills, and when he was finally released I asked him how he felt. He said he was Hangry. I would of taken him to McDonald's but I was broke since I was fired for getting arrested trying to break my brother out of the nut house, so my brother and I decided to rob the doctor that forced him into the crazy house. Big mistake. The doctor had a gun in his car. He shot me, my brother, and turned the gun on himself. Now the three of us are ghosts and we haunt the fitness department in Walmart while eating flaming hot cheetos, microwavable chicken nuggets, and gummy bears. My brother is now a fat ass ghost. His girlfriend is now a lesbian. My dog fasted to death since I died and nobody fed him. My dog is heaven with Tupac playing Zelda: Ocarina of Time til the end of time eating gummy bears.

Joe is so wise to say the foods you eat have a direct effect on your energy and mood and that can have a profound effect on how your personality is expressed.
I did a 36 day water fast in 2021. My goal was to go for 40 days. I only quit, because I contracted Covid-19, and had the absolute worst nausea that I’ve ever had in my life. I sipped chicken bone broth, which, unfortunately broke my water fast. I did learn quite a bit though, even though I didn’t make it to 40 days, water fasting. My weight at the start was 286.8 pounds. 7 days later, I weighed myself, and the scale read, 264lbs, a total of 22.8lbs lost in a week! Probably 17-18lbs was water loss, then probably 4-5lbs fat, then the last tiny amount of weight, was muscle. I felt incredible! Also, I finally achieved the, “No more hunger zone”, as I put it. The only thing I’d do from time to time, was take a pinch of, “Real Salt”, for some salt and other essential trace minerals. I only had water, no coffee, tea, nothing else. I took blood readings, twice per day, morning and evening, for glucose and keytone levels. It was interesting, my blood glucose stayed between, 95 an 64 and after about the fifth day my blood keystones, by day 7 of my water fast, were 4.1! I was in serious fat burning mode! My keystones were always over 4 and one time went as high as, 6.9! My final weight-in on day 36: 237.4lbs. A total weight loss, of 49.4lbs, an average daily weight loss, of 1.37lbs per day. Had I not gotten stricken badly with Covid-19, I know I could have continued for 80 total days, with only water. If my weight loss average was consistent, in 80 days, I would have lost 109.6lbs and weighed my healthy weight, of 177.2lbs. Look up the RUclipsr: “Fasting Fat Man.” This guy will amaze you! Peace.
That’s along time without food, did you feel non energetic and foggy brain while doing this
@@jpg1212 After day 6-7, I only felt better, no lethargy, no hunger at all. If I wouldn’t have gotten Covid-19, and things would have keep going the same, I believe I just would have gone past the 40 day fast mark. I’ll never know…
When I got Covid, I fasted through it and feel as if it was the best thing I could have done. Putting food in a body that is sick doesn't seem like a good idea to me. Let the body naturally deal with being sick and leave digestion for another time.

Fasting helped me realize how much time I eat and how it make me feel like shut. Fasting in the beginning sucks but when you get over the hump its like having a clear mind clear gut

Been doing i.f for a year now. I'm 54 years old have a 32 inch waist and weigh the same as when I was in my early 20s. It works great
I've always ate only once per day. Everyone used to tell me that's why I was obese. Now it's the greatest diet fad. I've lost and gained weight eating that way. Moderation. That's what works (for me, anyway).
Curlyfat / Matt Your genetics play a role as well. Fasting definitely help you lose weight and maintain mental sharpness.
GEORGE.W. BIATCH. "Genetics" has very little to do with it. Show me those fat people from 100 years ago... Protip, you can't. Genetics will determine metabolism. But the body when in a fasted/starvation state will cling on to body fat. Multiple small meals a day will lean a person out incredibly fast. Because the metabolism goes through the roof
I disagree! Genetics does play a role in my opinion. 100 years ago, people did not eat multiple small meals a day. They were lucky to eat one big meal, if that. You are countering your own assertion.
The over-eating epidemic is directly correlated with obesity, and that is a fairly recent phenomenon in human history. So, yes, there are people in fairly advanced society that are more or less likely to be prone to become obese because of their genetics. You put 2 fat individuals together and you get a fat baby; add a few McDonald and Burger King on every street corners and you get a fat town!
Intermittent fasting has produced great results for total body fat loss and no, it is not a fad but rather a realignment with they way Man has been sustaining himself for most of Human Evolution.

I recently did a 3 day fast where I fasted until dinner time and I was surprised at how good I felt. The first day I could feel my body going through withdrawals and had a pretty bad headache but the next two days I felt amazing. It’s funny because my purpose of the fast wasn’t for anything weight loss or health related but more of a way to get close to God as I’m a born again Christian. However, I am considering adopting this into a way of my every day life as I really enjoyed the benefits of fasting.
I did a 11 day water fast at the beginning of this year and it was the best thing i could have ever done. No more acid reflux, stomach ache, way better sleep and etc. People keep telling me i was crazy but only if they knew
How did you transition to that? Also, how did you transition back to eating, what was your first meal?
Biff well i basically just stopped cold turkey. No transition. I was smoking and drinking alot and wanted to reset my body back to where it needed to be. The first two to three days were rough but after that everyday i felt better and better. My mind was so clear and i felt so motivated to get shit done. I could have went even longer if i wanted. I broke the fast with watermelon and strawberries the first day then had salads for a week then started with chicken and fish for protein. I still feel the benefits from that fast 3 months later
You only had water for 11 days?

When started Intermittent fasting 3 years ago i only noticed after more than a year i never had any case of stomach ulcer anymore.. and upto this 3rd year i remember only 2 incidents that i have some minor stomach ulcer..
And within this 3 years i have lost 18kg (39lbs) n maintain it..
Been doing intermittent fasting for over a year now and I'm in the best shape of my life! I started at 200 pounds, dropped to 145 at my lowest and now I'm 150 trying to get to 160! It feels amazing to be able to function 16 - 35 hours without food!
How old are you if you don’t mind?
What type of foods would you eat when you finally eat?
@@dukekent5393
Advocado and tuna.
Healthy fat and lean protein.
Then good meal latter.
So cutting refined carbs, drinking only water and eating healthy will cure my day time drowsiness?
Yup, the insulin spike, which is from carbs, is the reason for that crash
Include nofap and mediation
greatvalueboy gvb LMAO this is crazy I was just watching spiritual so video on no fap, now I came across this comment! Imma have to start no fap.
Ivan Vargas plantbased diets along with intermittent fasting did just that for me
Man it’s crazy. Once you stop eating carbs you dint get tired mid afternoon. Was mind blowing to experience the first time
I fast regularly. Every Monday 24-36 hrs and at the beginning of each month 72 hrs. People always give me a ton of crap. They think I’m crazy doing some kind of voodoo crap. Whoever I talk to about fasting is always very hostile towards this topic. They always say “oh that’s crazy, that’s impossible”. But, I’m the one getting back in shape, becoming more and more chiseled and healthy! Stay strong people!
Yes people who don’t understand intermittent fasting and don’t bother to look into the subject do see it like it’s such a bad thing. Like they think humans have always been eating for every hour of their waking day since the beginning of time. I had one friend who told me it would ruin my metabolism. Well 2 years on I am in good shape and intermittent fasting is now a way of life and seems so natural to me. My weight has been stable since I lost the weight I needed, I have freedom to eat what I like without fear of gaining the weight back. That friend is still around 100lb over weight and has been on and off ‘diets’.
Edit: When I said intermittent fasting I just meant fasting in general.
Nice 👌
The secret to longevity is to fast for 21 days every 3 months
Fasting is an incredible healing tool.
Rewatch because apparently you weren't paying attention...
Eating is too!
ccmkoho the right food
Ramona Leigh B , well pizza would save a starvings man life
ccmkoho I agree
It's true, working out during the morning with an empty stomach is so beneficial in the long term.
I grew in a small village in Mexico; What Americans call "OMAD" and "Intermitent Fasting" people in my village just called it "eating"
I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia was on a cocktail of medications every single day, I was sick from the meds and also drowsy from the strong meds, I started fasting just over a year ago now and now I am
In remission I don’t have any medications now and I am can finally start living again! X
Never heard a 40yo. man say, "I am feeding, my feeding window" etc.
the technical term is “time-restricted feeding”, hence his use of the word 🙃
He always sits at his window and eats?
Very weird
I imagined a glory hole
OMAD is where it's at man.
OMAD + Keto and 3L of water has expedited my fat loss substantially. When people mention Breakfast Lunch Dinner and snacks it seems so alien. I was making the scale error at 430lb+ and am falling into the 230s now!
look up waterlogged by tim noakes
What time do u eat? Just watched a utube v that if u do HIIT workout after fasting 18 hrs your HGH goes insanely up THEN eat
Congrats looking forward to results
Agreed! I've been doing the OMAD + Keto and I'm down 72 lbs in 5 months so far. The best part about it is I eat until I'm fuller than shit which is a big thing for me. THIS SHIT WORKS!
@@LolDarrellLol well done my brother that's so awesome to hear! The truth is in front of everyone yet nobody allows themselves to see, but cases such as yours can help so many people
It's Day #2 of me doing OMAD 23/1. I felt better mentally and physically. My eczema starting to clear up slowly, it almost turn back into my old normal skin. So far, I haven't got any long ass headache that won't gone until I sleep. My negativity just went down, I feel like I just wanna live positive and healthy. My life before OMAD was disorganized, depressed, stuck in a rut, miserable, pretty much feel like literal shit. Now it's starting to get better. I have a feeling that I probably gonna be end up diabetic anyway, if I continue to live like I used to. So, might as well doing OMAD the rest of my life than injecting insulin to my body every single day. Phew, can't imagine me doing that shit.
Wow great insight to your OMAD journey and thanks for sharing
As you get older your digestive system takes longer to digest and your capability to workout as vigorously and often as you did when you were younger also declines so in my opinion fasting serves to offset the negative consequences of having a slower digestive system and working out less vigorously.
It has definitely helped me to lose some weight but more importantly a significant amount of body fat and the only place that I really accumulate fat is in my stomach....
Ramadan Mubarak to all my Muslim brothers and sisters.
Its the perfect time to dry fast in 24-72hr blocks. My silly peers think its just part of ramadan.
@@vantaylor9533 Are you Muslim bro?
Thank you brother 👍🏽😊
I last until like 7pm and not on purpose, I’m just poor
i feel ya brotha :(
Roselli Tv 🤣🤣🤣
🥔
LOL
I felt that
I dove head first into fasting 20 hrs a day and stopped eating sugar and most carbs completely a month ago and I havent felt better in 25 years.
Absolutely one of the most eye-opening, revelatory interviews (for 8 minutes) i have heard in a long time. Even Joe is not interrupting.
Yeah super interesting
“One day I was in ketosis for 3 years”
That one day was so long that it felt like 3 years
You missed the two key words prior to that. 'Except for'...."Except for one day, I was in ketosis for 3 years."
I think is in ketosis now... he can't make sense..
I’m on ket right now and I agree
@@lynx8437 ketamine
I fast everyday 18 hours to 20 and some times i don’t eat for two days my memory just amazing my problem solving skills having gone up so much it’s crazy
Fuck yeah buddy been doing it for a year and my life has completely changed
Yea. I like take exams on a 24-36 hour fast now because of the damn mental clarity it gives me. It is insane. I honestly thought I had ADHD but with fasting and removing simple carbs my mental clarity has gone up. Honestly some days I want to just skip eating because I have better moods on that day as well as the mental clarity.
I get jealous when I hear about all the benefits from some people. I have tried fasting off & on for over three years, all different levels, and all different nutrition sources with all the different hour levels of fasting.
I get negative results across the board, without exception.
I wanna start doing this. Any advice? I'm a morning person so is it a good Idea to do my eating in the early morning?
@@1325cmith You're going to find many different pieces of advice, and nearly as many guarantees. At the end of the search, your only real solution is to experiment and find what your body wants.
We all work a little differently, what works 90% for one guy will post low to no yield for you, and vice versa. It's individual to each person.
Get Greg on your show! He is my Sensei
Never eating before the end of the day, feeling petty well in my forties. There is absolutely no need to eat more than once par day
He’s exactly right, diet is everything
Elite Clinical Research nope, exactly wrong lol.
Well, diet is very important of course. But the mindset would be number one.
You can eat the healthiest food all you want... But if you're under severe stress, you're fucked.
And don't you tell me that eating healthy food removes stress and that type of shit.
Yes, eating healthy is definitely a starting point if ur mentally fucked and been eating junk food. But diet alone wont help
hmmm okay i can buy that. But im putting diet at number 2.
Freevoice
Elite Clinical Research technically you can lose weight no matter what you eat as long as you eat below BMR , but yes diet helps a lot, whole grains and veggies keep you full longer than white carbs and sweets
If he eats 1 meal a day at dinner time, wouldn't that be a 24 hour fast? Or does he not count 8 hours for sleep?
Good conversation. I remember being overweight from age 7 to 13. I fasted basically to lose the weight. Only ate 800 calories a day and noticed huge energy spikes, more power and became sharper like the doctor mentioned in this video. I was always better than others at sports or academics just because of how my engine ran. I believe fasting and eating one meal a day was big time for my success. Still to this day I fast normally at least 24 hours then eat and repeat.
@@AnmolMishra946 you underestimate the real power of eating big portions. I eat, what i used to eat spread out, in ONE BIG MEAL at night and it is not even hard, i enjoy it so much more.
@@AnmolMishra946bodybuilding myth
good carbs: fruit, quinoa, wild rice, black rice, amaranth grain.
I’ve been in Ketosis for a year. I eat once a day with a snack later in the day on occasion. I just fasted for 72 hours very easily. The third day I was in a wonderful mood. I highly recommend intermittent fasting.
I totally get the freedom from food that he is talking about. I'v been on Keto and fasting 16/8 for 7 monts now, and I don't feel the stress from having to eat at a certain time anymore. If I have to skip a meal and prolong my fast to a 20/4 I don't stress, I'm not even hungry.
Finally, a doctor that doesn't believe in the 3 meals a day BS
Or even worse, 6 meals a day!
@@extrasmalldoll654 so many athletes and celeb trainers say to eat 6 small meals a day eating every 2-3 hrs day. I never had success or lost weight eating even 3 meals a day.
Anita Knight Exactly. You have to get healthy to lose weight, NOT lose weight to get healthy. Its opposite of what we’ve been taught. Try 2 meals or 1 a day if you haven’t already.
@@extrasmalldoll654 yeah that's my plan to incorporate now doing one meal a day ; ). I was doing 2 meals a day. I was doing some water fasting. I did two 14 day water fasts no food only water. I feel like I'm intolerant to refined carbs and gluten. I have bad inflammation and hormonal imbalances with pcos.
Ok, so I'm ignorant, sorry, three meals a day is actually not as great as people claim? This calls for some research... I am so intrigued by this.
Nobody saying it !?!?
water helps so much, when I think I’m hungry, I’m just thirsty .
WATER WATER WATER
I'm a type 1 diabetic who has been told since being diagnosed at 13 that I need to eat three meals a day with 4-5 servings of carbohydrates and a snack in-between meals plus a snack at bedtime with 2 servings of carbohydrates. Worst medical advise I've ever been given. Taking that approach turned my mind to mush and led me to do terribly in high school. Eating a massive breakfast spiked my blood sugar for several hours regardless of how much insulin I was doing(look up dawn phenomenon). With consistently high blood sugar you can't focus, think or function properly plus you get REALLY moody! At 27, Intermittent fasting has saved my life the past few months. I eat from 3 pm to 9 pm and my levels have never been more stable, I feel mentally sharper and I've dropped some weight. Sometimes doctors don't know what's best.
Well one year later we have 6 days left for Ramadan (16hrs of fasting) & I feel amazing and even gained so much muscle 💪 lifting free weights
I'm so thankful that Joe presented intermittent fasting to me through youtube... I can't follow a diet but intermittent fasting is challenging but its so simple... it helped me a lot.. iv never been obese but it helped burn of that last layer of fat (I'm around12-13% body fat)
10 days into a water fast.
6 days so far, 38 yr old 6 foot 1 started 242 lbs
I’ve been intermittent fasting for 3 years and it does wonders mentally. Also physically.
As a nurse I can tell you they fasting is the cornerstone of medical treatment. Everything from bowel obstructions to pancreatitis are basically cured by fasting and IV fluid hydration.
XY ZW yes
I may try this then because I have a lot to lose. If I lose weight without surgery is there I chance I won't have pile of saggy skin? Sorry to pick your brain on RUclips but I'm thinking I may have to save up for a surgery to remove unwanted skin as well. Right now I go 347 after losing 30 pounds and haven't seen any loose skin yet.
Morning Glory snake diet is similar
Giving your bowl a rest....or letting your pancreas basically readjust itself by going npo and only having iv fluids. Noooo shit that's going to help. Will also help a stomach ulcer..crohns or colitis flare...etc. it's what you do alllllll the other times that will cause those issues to not appear in the first place. Don't us " cured" anymore either....it's not a cure it's temporary relief. Thank God your not my nurse.
Fasting is the new bloodletting.
