      Fasting is also powerful for manifesting. Fasting is one of several "existential manifesting techniques". Gasping for air, starving for food, procreation and fight or flight are others. The universe is always there to help you survive when you need help the most. But you can request the type of help it supplies. As crazy and bizarre as it seems, holding your breath until you get what you want really does have the potential to manifest your intention. Fasting with an unwavering visualization of a desired state can as well, for instance if you have a health problem and are fasting, the intensity and urgency of your starvation might stir the universe to find a way for you to get food and survive. However, if instead while you are hungry as heck you visualize being 100% healthy while you are feeling intense need for food the universe instead gifts you good health to ensure your survival.

    My uncle has been fasting for one day a week for over 30 years, he only drinks water and on regular days doesn't mix meat with carbs. He also does oil pulling, and drinks aloe vera mixture he prepares with garlic and lemon. He is 83 and is so healthy, moves furniture, climbs ladders, and stairs, is looking after his tenants, drives to mountains, contribute to charities. He has been my inspiration for many years.

      I'm also 45, been fasting 16-24 hours for 8 years now. I'm never sick and I look younger than everybody my age.
      IF won't do much to cure depression in my experience, but it has an amazing effect on healing your body. If you can do 24 hour fasting that's great.
      But don't forget the electrolytes. If you get cramps take pinch of sea salt and chug some water.
      To cure depression I suggest micro dosing on magic mushrooms. A week or two and the depression is gone. Plus it promotes brain plasticity so you will get smarter as well. It actually works, without any side effects. What the doctor gives you don't work or is close to placebo and it has horrible side effects. I've tried them all.
      Do these two things and you will feel like 20 again.
      It would be interesting to hear about your results, keep me updated. If you have any questions I'll be happy to answer them.
      Good luck stranger! :)
      EDIT: I almost forgot, if you're not already doing it, you need to take vitamin D3 (5000 IU), Omega3, amino acids and a high quality multi vitamin every day. And I suggest switching to sea salt instead of regular rock salt to get all the minerals you need. Now you are all set!

    This is so true. I went back to my mother's remote village in Papua New Guinea. Every morning, food wasn't just there. They wouldn't even eat fruits readily available first thing in the morning. Instead the activity was fishing- be it on a canoe or from a large bamboo surf rod. It took time. So from a natural wake up at about 5.15am - 10-20 mins to sunrise - we wouldnt eat until about 9am. You eat if you want to eat, and eat until satiated. Then rest or do things in the village, until we need to fish again or go to the gardens which weren't in the village. Even for water you'd have to walk to retrieve it from an underground cave. After 4 days of my 14 day trip, my body had adjusted, no pain, no brain fog. It was incredible.

    I’m 57, going through menopause, morbidly obese going through a lot of stress in my personal life and fasting is saving my life!! I have been doing a 36-40 hour test a week and it has really bolstered my confidence that I can do hard things. I’ve been doing IF for the past 6 weeks or so and have lost about 15 lbs, have seen some positive changes in my skin, my sleep, and my whole relationship with food.
    A surprising side effect during the 36-40 hour fast is that when I go to bed slightly uncomfortable from not eating for so long, slightly hungry, it has made me more aware of what it feels like for those people who go to sleep hungry because they have no food. It’s made me aware and I’m motivated to help those in need. That’s not something I was expecting. It’s humbling to realize that most of us don’t have any idea what real hunger feels like.

      Hi Anna Maria my name is Agnes Teresa Maria nad my daughters name Anna that's why it took my attention to read your message. I am also from Eastern Europe. I ah e learned about my period in the most horrific way when I was a teen, got up at night to pee and screamed bloody murder in the middle of night , I thought I'm dying that's it's end of me. My Grandparents , my aunt with baby and uncle , my Mom bursted into the bathroom and all started to laugh. I was told I am a woman now. That's how my womanhood issues started, shame. I educated my children the minute their puberty started about period and not to mention I project my menstruation fear on them. It was not celebrating being a woman it was a curse. My whole life to the point my uterus was removed. That's how your mind works!!!! My children already knew about menstruation, sex from internet and school. There is a lock of proper education I think and too much tabu and politics and we women suffer! Men- o- pause ? I had no idea what it is until I and my baby and my body went into menopause at age 33!!!! I am 51 and still going!! Because there is pre, menopause, and post. Fasting, vegan diet, hydration, yoga helped me so much with symptoms. The sooner you start changing your diet and cutting crap food, coke, Pepsi, chips , and stresssssssssssss eliminate as much as you could. And I eat when I'm hungry , sometimes I don't eat at all. And I'm ok. And do I over eat? I can't.

      ⁠@@carolinerobertson2091Try to eat more protein first, then green vegetables and fiber. For example, some fish or chicken with a green salad with only lime and salt. Also, you can eat black beans or kidney red beans for your fiber portion. You can use another fiber resource you like; remember, they are an excellent source of carbohydrates, too. Most importantly, remove sugar from your drinks and food and change white flour products. I lost 14 lbs in one month and then 6 lbs in the second month.

    The whole episode is phenomenal, but I have to say... he is SO good at this work because he actually LISTENS to engage. So many podcasters spend more time thinking about the next thing THEY want to say, like they'd rather hear themselves than their guest.

    But the week before I really do pamper myself with feasting and relaxing .
    I was always really good at fasting. It was the feasting I needed to learn about.
    I always dreaded my mood swings of the week before. Suicidal thoughts preceded my period, but now I really look forward to that week. I love having so much more control in my life.

She is looking and feeling younger than she was 5 years ago. But the most important thing of all the benefits she's seen is probably self-confidence because she proved to herself that she can do something so significant. I'm so Proud of her. Hopefully, her story can inspire others to try it out and see if it works for them. It's fascinating to see her grow older in age, but getting younger with her physique.

    I love this information in this video. I am a diabetic. Last week I set my mind to start eating more healthy. Also, today was my first day of a 17 hour fast. I felt great. I even went to the gum during this fasted state. Felt great afterwards as well. I am interested in doing a 36 hour fast to start testing the fat burning switch that was mentioned in the video because I'm currently obese. I'm just afraid my blood sugar levels will be too low. I've experienced it getting low after not eating for a while and it's not cool. I felt dizzy and felt like I was going to pass out. However, today I went a full 17 and felt ok but I think by me working out might have kept my blood sugar level at a healthy low state but still since I hadn't eaten I was still fasting. I do have a glucose monitor that I will use so I can constantly see my numbers. These studies are fascinating and I am motivated to start living and doing better.

I bought the book... This, what this incredible woman is saying, is gold dust! I will take my fasting to a new level because of her. People, humans, need to stop thinking of food all the damn time, we are not designed for this. 4 meals a day, 6 meals a day, snacks. We need to stop doing what the food industry is asking us to do.

I am on carnivore diet and I do intermittent fasting and I have noticed hot flashes are less frequent. Frankly, menopause royally sucks and the belly bloat and brain fog are maddening. I won't do hormone replacement because I don't want to increase risk of breast cancer. I do feel that getting rid of sugar, refined sugars,carbs, and seeded oils (canola, cottonseed etc.), have really helped with symptoms.

      I was always going to take hrt as being in full blown MP at just 40 is very undesirable. I know it may sound lame but I was tremendously concerned with accelerated aging. Not just on my face but in my body, brain fog, aching joints, weight gain… I have certainly experienced these but not on the level of my 2 friends who cannot take HRT bc their endo was unable to be completely removed. My point of writing this is to say please do not needlessly suffer. Research & advances have been made since our mothers took hrt. Should you find yourself losing your hair, sex drive, dry skin, night sweats, excessive anger & mood swings to name a few- give hrt a try for a couple of months. For me that little blue pill is so vital to my well being that the benefits far outweigh the potential consequences.

    45:00 I had a garden injury during Covid and struggled to get an appointment. It affected my groin area and also found I was limping from time-to-time when my leg would give out from under me. I thought perhaps it was a hairline fracture. The pain came on when I was double-digging and hit a huge rock with my spade. The pain lasted weeks. I tried everything in my holistic toolbox and the pain continued. Armed with the knowledge of cell repair I then decided to do a water fast, and after that, the pain was gone, never to return again.
    Did you know that when you fall ill and find that you're not feeling hungry, it's actually your body's clever way of starting to mend itself? Here's how it works in simple terms.
    Normally, your body uses a lot of energy to digest food. When you're sick, your body decides to use that energy for healing instead of digestion. So, it reduces your appetite to shift the focus.
    If you have an infection, eating less can sometimes help your body fight it off better. Certain germs thrive on the sugar and iron in our food, so by eating less, you're cutting off their supply.
    Think of it like closing a busy road to fix it properly. When you're not eating much, your body gets a chance to repair itself without the extra work of digesting food as your body refocuses' its energy for repair. What a wonderful healing machine we have!

    This lady is absolutely spot on. I suffered sepsis last year and it took me a long time to recover physically and for many months I still felt weak and shakey. I was very overweight (110kg) and had been for most of my adult life. Back in November I read a brief article on intermittent fasting and thought sod it, give it a go! I'm now 87 kg so still have a way to go but feel so much better in myself. I have breakfast and lunch no later than 1pm and then nothing but water after that. The only thing I've cut out of my diet is processed foods, I make my own bread and biscuits. I eat cheese, real butter red meat and pretty much everything else as long as it's home made. I can now exercise which I wasn't able to face before. Anyone reading this who's having doubts, just give yourself a month and stick to it strictly. If it works out for you and you start seeing the weight go down it becomes a lot less difficult, you'll find yourself doing it gladly. You'll soon realise that what you thought was hunger is actually just cravings but you'll feel so proud in yourself with each day that you stuck to it :)

    Bless Dr Mindy. I've followed her for years and because of her I prevented a spinal fusion. I do a 72-hr water fast about twice a year. 1st time I was due for a 3rd low back surgery (fusion) and at the 72 hour mark of my water fast the skeletal/muscular stem cells produced to such a degree that the stabbing pain due to my herniation at L5-S1 that I had for over 10 years was 100% gone. No surgery. No injections. Just extended water fasting with sufficient electrolytes (super important). That was a little over 3 years ago. Pain still gone and I just came off 7th 72 hr water fast last week. I'm just shy of 60-years-old.

      Great info! I've been working on reducing severe blood clotting issues. I knew the problem and its solution was internal when I first noticed my leg swelling and immediately learned of 3 enzymes and diet changes, so started that asap.
      It's been 7 months my way vs GP & Vasc Drs & $$$ pills that did nothing good. I still have a slightly swollen ankle, still working on it, but no leg distress. I could improve more, I do like some alcohol, I'm a munch, need to walk the dogs more - no 64yr old Angel here.
      Now I've watched this - I'd be gobsmacked if a 72 hr fast would reset it all. This Dr Mindy certainly clarified why & how fasting works, couldn't get more 'root cause' than a base cellular 'reset'. HMMMM No clotting, less achy pains, energy, clarity .....
      You do this twice a year??? I could do that! Great idea, Thank you!

      Now. Start while the idea is fresh in your mind. Take PTO a week, I personally drive to city far from my own. Don't touch social media. And just start drinking water. Go as long as your body can handle. I fasted 4 days, I had no energy, I just drank water and slept. At one point my body started puking out all the water I drank but get this, it WAS NOT CLEAR. On day 4 my body was getting rid of toxins in the only way it could. In addition, sweat! I would turn the shower on super hot, let the bathroom transform into a sauna and let the toxins come out through your skin(in a hotel, i would not do this in my own home). When you reach the point where you KNOW you can't keep going, ease the food back in. Just like she said, introduce healthy small portions of food. Then just don't stop this new habit and intermediate fast daily. Do these long fasts when you either find yourself turning to back to the bad habits. I'm not a doctor so this is just my experience but it works for me!

    There are several parts of this that brought me to tears. My mother passed away from an accidental overdose at 48 years old. Two years prior she had a some sort of switch and she completely changed from the person I knew my whole life. The explanation of women during menopause has given me a new level of understanding to what may have been going on for her in the last few years of her life.
    I’ve also struggled with my weight my entire life. I feel very defeated with my appearance most days and it prevents me from having any motivation to keep going when it comes to health. Knowing that my body isn’t working against me but rather working for me to survive and place fat outside rather than internally has just shifted the way I think of my body and myself.

Vets know that if an animal is over eating they have parasites...back 100 years ago citizens use to do parasite cleanses several times a year (many countries today still do this health protocal)...big phrama companies came into play and dont want healthy people they want sick people who will take Rx drugs for life to stop symptoms but, not cure.
      Dr Group states in his vid that he believes 90% of USA citizens have parasites....Dr Hilda Clark stated that all "disease is caused by parasites". Herbs from your local health food store = parasite cleanse with a good diet like keto and/or Carnivore diet heal the gut.

It´s not like all of us in Spain are just given 3 days before our periods to relax.

    Menopause is the absolute worst experience I've ever endured. I really thought I was going to lose my mind. I began engaging in negative self-talk, telling myself how stupid I am. Feeling frustrated and helpless over the increasing memory lapses, the loss of my sex drive, pain during sex, feeling "scattered" in my brain and bloated in my body. I beat myself up because, in my mind, I was no longer the woman I used to be. I developed a "barrel belly" that I'd always noticed on other women in their 50's, but never thought it would happen to me! My ordeal has lasted 10 yrs but I see a light at the end of the tunnel!

I remember in grade 4 a teacher took me out of the classroom, put earphones on me plus put me in a quiet room to read a book. After I was done she asked me what the story was about and I actually knew. It was just for that one day but I now know I needed this everyday. I have thrown books across the room, not because I didn't want to read the book but I would go through a chapter, close it and realize I didn't remember anything I had read. Not even the characters names. Yes I have hated my brain for not remembering a thing and have hated myself forever. I have suicidal thoughts but sure I would never act on it. My daughter is the same and I'm sure my grandson also. He has just turned 5 and can play video games better than most adults I'm sure. At least it blows my mind! Then you talk to him while hanging out and he looks at you then will walk away without answering. My daughter has been on medications for anxiety and depression which her doctor put her on as an adult. I didn't understand why since I gave her all my love and attention and everything she needed in life ,so I thought. Only didn't give her the one thing she was really missing, in my opinion after watching this is to see a specialist about maybe having ADHD!
