On this episode of Health Theory, Tom Bilyeu is joined by two time New York Times bestselling author Dave Asprey, the "Father of Biohacking" and CEO and founder of Bulletproof 360, to discuss such matters and more as they explore the hidden benefits of fasting, what to avoid when starting out a fast, and how to apply ‘fasting’ to every area of your life. They discuss the many different types of fasting, the pitfalls of hardcore fasting, what defines a fast, the healing power of fiber on your gut, how to eat and still be in a fast, what the true benefits beyond weight loss are of fasting, how to lower inflammation in the body, spiritual fasting, how you can begin fasting in an easy, yet effective, way and so much more.

    “You don’t have to experience pain and hunger to get the benefits of fasting and to go into fasting.” [5:04]
    “Fasting the same way everyday is bad for you. Because it doesn’t lend your body the idea of metabolic flexibility. It’s like, “Oh, I live in a world where there’s almost never enough food.” So have breakfast every now and then…” [24:08]
    “When most people hear fasting, all they hear is, “I’ll starve therefore, I’ll die,” and then they blank out to it. No, this is about more energy and it’s about more clarity and less time wasted.” [41:53]

      @Blue Sky Puzzle Its hard to quit, but it only takes about 2 weeks to get over it. I was addicted, and never ever knew it , since I was a kid, mostly to ice cream. I just stopped about 20 years ago and then didn't think about it until just recently. I have been under a lot of stress so I had a bowl of ice cream; I was off the wagon and started eating it again. As of old, a meal didn't feel complete without it at the end. So, I'm quitting again and I'm sure it will stick for a long time because I did it before.

    I listen to Dr. Fung - I have done a 30 day and a 21 day fast - lost almost 50 pounds and have kept it off a year later. I was completely fine. There is a lot of misinformation in this interview frankly. If you have fat for your body to eat then going beyond 10 days is not dangerous at all. It's common sense which is why I like Fung. You have excessive fat? Safe to fast. Not a lot of excessive fat? You don't need to do long term fasting. What is the difference between your body eating the excessive fat your body is already carrying or putting more fat in via your mouth? There is no difference. Here's the basic secret - if you have extra fat on your body let your body do the work and get out of the way. We overcomplicate all of this so much when the reality is our bodies know exactly what to do and you will be just fine. *Edit to add: beyond the first few days of your body adjusting to fasting you are not hangry or "bitchy" as this guy is saying. After a few days you feel more energetic and positive than you have ever felt. So much misinformation here.

      I agree with much of what you've said, Positive. I'm a follower of Dr. Dom D'Agostino. Have been for many years. He sits alone at the top LMO. Peter Attia and Steven Gundry are good, but Gundry loses me whenever he begins to anthropomorphize the actions of cell organelles, processes and functions to explain them in simple terms to us. That tells me surgeons seldom have a clue how or why it works that way. It's not what they do. They have been trained to cut anything out if it doesn't work. For them it's about affecting tangible, yet hopefully less impactful changes to somebody's quality of life.
      You say there's a lot of misinformation here, and that's where we disagree. I can't give Asprey a pass like I do for those surgeons I mentioned. At least somewhere along the line they learned thru common sense to accept that surgery wasn't a good answer. Sorry, but what this self-declared nerd is selling is bullshit laced with cynicism. The rest he borrowed. You've been far too kind to call it misinformation.

      Hello, I have just finished nineteen day, twenty -two hour fast.
      Post fast I have cut out processed food, no obvious carbs, cut out potatoes bread Pasta Rice.
      These people are making it more complicated than it need be.
      Before fasting. over a period of weeks cut out Sugar/Caffeine/ obvious carbs.
      Lot of waffle with these people, the lack of Sugar to the Brain, can create a clarity like a small LSD trip, nothing more.
      Since late 20/18, have done three fasts of 19 to 21 days, two fasts of nine days and two fasts of three days.
      My reason for fasting! June 20/18 had RP which was not successful, prior to RT starting in December 20/18 I did a twenty-one day water fast. Before fast my PSA was 0.22 post fast 0.17 then started to climb again till RT. In my case, there could be a link re fasting containing the PSA, hard to prove though.
      These people are making a fast more complicated than it need be.
      Also in my case, have no problem re refeeding after a fast, perhaps I am just lucky, never had any problems.
      I am retired so there is no work stress or family to contend with, for some people work during a fast could be problematic. so better to do it on holiday time.

    Jottings:
    - Theme: Fasting
    - Over-fasting (> 10 days) not good. Thats starving or malnutrition.
    - Fasting == go without (eating, digital, etc) that makes us stronger.
    - Metabolic/dietary Fasting = does not increase insulin (Water + little pre-biotic fiber)
    - Goals of fasting:
    - healing gut,
    - autophagy (little fat ok),
    - more energy,
    - lower inflammations (absence of toxins, ketone)
    - Intermittent fasting: 16 hrs Fasting, 8 hrs eat anything!!
    - Ketones: body burns fats and not sure, more energy than glucose, brain loves it, more clarity
    - Fasting is a practice, start slow. Don't make it painful unless for spiritual reason.
    - Spending energy heavily on:
    - Fear: run away from kill
    - Food: eat everything
    - F*: going crazy
    - Fasting is a way out of above spends.

      You are just blindly following what he says without any experimentation, you have to find what works for your own unique self.
      You are unique, just like everyone else 👐
      There is a million different ways to fast so find what works for you!!!
      Fasting over 10 days isnt necessarily a bad thing, once you switch over to running on ketones you will be full of energy. Rememever to always be careful and listen to your body!
      The main thing while water fasting is adding salt and potassium to your water. This is very important!

    I started my fasting journey at 462lbs. First month i did 16/8 and only ate whole foods lost 25lbs. Second month i noticed lunch time was comming around and i wouldnt be hungry so i switched to omad lost anoth 22lbs. Third and 4th month i did a mix of different things were i fasted for 5 days ate for 2 days. I also did rolling 72's and at my 5th month i completed my first 21 day fast. Using only water, electrolyte powder, and prebiotic powder. In total i lost 132lbs in 6 months and maintained it for a year. Had a bunch of family deaths all at once and went right back to emotionally eating and went from 330 a mear 60lbs away from my goal weight of 270. Back to 444 currently. And today is day 2 of getting back on track and watching this video was definately interesting and great insight. I will say fasting has showed me how ridiculous my fast food addiction was and how that feeling i had when i felt like i needed to be gorged at all times was just dumb.

    My experience with fasting is that at 1st I got crazy hungry after 4-6 hours. Kept at it and the time between getting very hungry got longer and longer over the weeks. Now I'm at the stage where I can go 23 hours and I'm like, oh yeah, time to eat now, and sure I am a bit hungry but I could go hours longer. Just that I don't and I eat that one meal for the day.
    I'm not much overweight to start with, just wanted to lose that last 30 pounds. As a side effect, my joints don't ache anymore and I literally jump out of bed like a teenager again. I'm close to 60 years old btw.

So I cussed him out, he don't care if she's fat. She does and got the answer. Demons are no good, just there to share a body to enjoy being alive without being alive. Ghosts are the same but not as old and experienced as demons, so less tricks. These things get in on people's blame and anger when it's really their fault and they didn't humble down are realize it.

    I grew up fasting as a kid when we were sick- we did it because we lived on a farm and thats what animals do when they're sick. And it makes sense- every symptom is the body saying "don't eat please!" (food tastes bland because your nose is congested, your throat is sore, etc. etc.)
    I never had to take antibiotics once. And I rarely got sick. But when I was 14 I got Scarlet Fever and fasted for almost three weeks on just water.
    Last year I had covid and fasted for 10 days (on just water). The beautiful thing is when you get to the end of being sick you feel like your body has cleaned up all the house keeping it hasn't gotten to do when you're normally eaten.
    So when you fast when you get sick (which feels natural anyway) you can see that being sick is actually perhaps part of how we stay healthy in a larger sense.

I believe because I went into it blindly without much knowledge about what I can have to balance my electrolytes and how to get rid of acid reflux, and the bad breath was just horrible
      I believe what made the 5 first days easy is that I was doing keto and OMAD for 3 months and have fasted 7 days several months before that so my body was quite used to it, so you need to work your way up just like the doctor said otherwise it would be incredibly tough much like my 6th day experience, good luck!

      @@albertomassari77 Hello, Since about August 2018 I have done two twenty one day fasts, one nineteen day fifteen hours and two nine day and one three day fasts. Just starting another and am about twenty eight hours in. Pre fasting I was about 15 stone 8lbs, after the first couple of fasts I was down to about 10stone 12lbs.
      June 18 2018 had robotic Surgery for Prostate Cancer "Gleason 9, T3B", the surgery was not successful, so managed to get radiation December 20 2018 to Feb 6 2019. In-between Surgery and Radiation did my first water fast. The reason for fasting was to achieve "Autography" which I did but there was an unusual twist. To get the Radiation treatment you have to have three rises in PSA level and fast doubling time. The effect of fasting brought my PSA level down to 0.17 from 0.22.and that could delay the Radiation I argued my case and they put me up for radiation.
      I had read up about fasting and just went for it and was prepared in the sense I was already more or less off sugar and caffeine so no withdrawal symptoms.
      Looking back, the initial fast was quite an undertaking and any discomfort I found was negated by the feeling that I was at least trying to fight the Cancer and doing something. There are similarities in all the long fasts the most interesting is the mind unleashed period, kind of like mild LSD, think of the religious people fasting in the desert and having visions, to them they got messages from God, for me just lack of sugar to the brain.
      Another benefit I found with fasting is anti inflammation effect. My right knee had some kind of age related issue, just a slight feeling! after weight loss am doing at least three miles a day walking in the woods, undulating paths so good exercise. Another effect of fasting is (for me) you can feel a bit cold on and off, solution, electric blanket and stay in bed for a day or two.
      Subsequent fasting I am not such a "Purist" Will initially take 50mg of Modafinil and coffee and am already non sugar so no sugar withdrawal.
      Apple cyder vinegar in the water and a little real salt and that seems to work for me.
      Pre Fast. Cut out Sugar and Caffeine, then starting Fast, Modafinil and an attack dose of caffeine, that should take you to day three of your fast.
      If you have pre-existing conditions, Diabetes or Gout or whatever , better get some advice from a doctor pre fasting.
      Good Luck

    You are so right about doing a longer fast with others in an environment without distractions. And it's motivational when done with others doing the same. Comparing notes removes a lot of fear or panic when you see that it's quite normal to go through both physical and spiritual or emotional issues.
    I have been running a fasting clinic for over 30 years now where people book in to do a supervised and monitored water fast for anything between 10 to 30 days.
    I have truly witnessed many transformations over the years.
    No one has ever regretted their decision to do such a fast.

      Oh kaaay. I'm stumped on this one. You must have a different kind of body or using GMO and glyphosate greens. I just juice greens, suspecting it get's rid of the lectins in the fiber. I'm supposed to weigh 95 lbs for ideal but, I got up to 150. I took it down to 126, felt okay, started eating and 3 yrs later it all came back. Now I'm at 128 and working harder, learning a lot more with new videos out. I did notice if I do eat again, they say not to, and it don't stop the diabetes but I don't gain and weight on raw vegetables, and raw fruits and it makes me smell really good. But I have to pee all the time because my body is always pushing sugar out I guess. Now I have all this candida and this is the first time I fasted 10 days and my tongue white won't go away. That's when I break a fast when my tongue is red again.

    18/6 squad member here. Last Month (3st of may, 2022 To be specific) was my 40th bday and after several weeks of indulging with parties, sex, alcohol and the inflammatory-inducing cuisine/processed foods, my joints were beginning to hurt, skin broke out, slept horribly and lost focus of the important things in life like ceasing my womanizing ways. Decided to take charge of my life and starting June 1st, decided to go on my first 46 hour fast. And from then on, 18 hour fasts daily and 24 hr fast every sunday evening into monday evening. Low carb, minimal sugar, only cheat was a few/several cocktails on sat nite (let me live, mom).
    End results? Acne cleared up, lost about 9 clean pounds, no sugar/carb cravings, joint paint dissipated, mental acuity stronger than ever and staying hungry feels totally fine. Above all else, i look more handsome now than i did in all of my 20’s. Wow!!! Not only am i aging like fine wine, i also feel greAt and can charm the skin mucous out of a slug!!!

    I'm Glad i heard this. I had a very strict diet and started IF for past 5 weeks. I continue strict diet, but before i started IF i felt like going up the wall. I had to have at least 1 cheat day per week to be able to continue. When i went to IF i continue losing more and more weight, my sugar and fast food cravings dissapeared 98% (i was having them all day every day before diet) and i feel more energized than ever în my entire life. Is simply amazing, this feeling. I am able to exercise even when i am on my menstrual cicle, which was never possible before. I feel like moving Mountains and before i was anemic and insulina resistant. Not only i feel so much energy but also i don't feel hungry at all. Even when hungwrs installer after many hours, is not painful. And yes it was at the first days but then it dissapeared compelty. No more hubger pain. I eat much less, much healtier and better, but i still have 1-2 cheat days (în The weekend) and i still loose 1-2 kg per week! Might be slow for some but to me is fantastic! Best week i had i lost 3 kg and felt the best energy ever. I truly swear by IF. This is not a diet anymore for me, is a life style. But earing this man saying is ok with the cheat days, feels much better, i felt a bit guilt but also confused of how i still managed to lose weight. I feel more at ease)) but as he says, i all about choosing the right things even when they are wrong. I have a coffee with Milk once a week, but the Milk is always vegetable and also a bit of whioped cream on top that îs also from vegetable milk, i can't tolerate normal Milk for a long time unfortunatelly, even before diet. No sugar, no oils, no syrop, but cinnamon. Cinammon became my "sugar" us an incredible spice, nicely balaced sweet and i love it. I reduce meat alot, i ate once a week, plus fish, but more vegetables, for snak fruit, soups, i am careful with portion. Once în a while i eat a simple burger în a bun, without cheese, just burger with salad and a bit of home made sous. No more cheese and meat combination, either cheese and vegetables or meat and vegetables. Only vegetable Milk that has no added sugar. I also eat prune jam, without added sugar, pasta from beans, Brown Rice, if i have to eat toast, only whole grain bread no more than 2 slices per day. I learned alot of healthy habbits that now when i am în The City and eat something bad i try to make the best possible choice even for that (such as no more terrible combinations, for eg în sandwaches). I cred alot of my illnesses like this too, never felt better. But yes, i do beleive în induling în a desert or something that makes your mouth water once a week. The difference is that you don't do it every day, like before, and well, we can also enjoy life whole we are at it. The Point is this is a susțină le lifestye, în my oppinion. Alternate, but yes, you can do it even 3 days per week and still fell the amazing difference

    • @montcarmel4879

      If this was your first time fasting, it’s understandable why you felt horrible. At the beginning fasting is not easy and makes you tired, gives you headaches and all that. It takes time for the body to adapt, afterwards you’ll feel amazing. Don’t do extremes. Start slowly and gradually. 16h, 18h, 20h, 22h, 24h and so on. Good luck 🍀
