Sardine fast is easy if I do this: Buy walmart brand, water pack whole sardines. Drain the water, add a couple of T. of rice wine vinegar (or whatever acid you like best) and let set a few minutes. Drain. You can eat this like this----NO FISHY taste and smell! You can also add 2 T. of really pure olive oil. I like homemade mayo made with avocado oil. Add any fat you like, but the point is the fishy taste and smell is caused by a chemical that can be totally neutralized by adding an acid for a few minutes. Works great!
Help, please! I am doing a sardine fast right now. It’s my second one, and I feel great. I do have a question, and if it has already been answered, I apologize. Do the members of your challenge, track their weight and report that, as well? I would love to know if the scale correlates with the changes you see in glucose and ketones. Do their measurements get smaller after a three day sardine fast? Does the scale go down? also… If someone feels great and gets positive results, do you feel that it is safe to do a 72 hour sardine fast every week? I’m so intrigued and have so many questions!
She is great and has loads of other excellent video's. I just finished listening to this whole video and and might do the Sardines. Also check out Dr Berg RUclips Channel. Lots of shorter Video's on Fasting and Keto Diet. Very detailed explanations of what body needs on Keto Diet and Fasting.
Yeah I did it and the first day i felt a rush of energy ALL DAY like nothing I have ever felt in my life, no meter, but SOMETHING BIG happened thats for sure, also sleep like a baby.
@@恩-z1b I believe you eat until you are satisfied so counting or limiting the number of tins is not required. Trying to condense your eating window each day to 8 hours is beneficial as it means you are fasting for 16 hours each day. I’ve lost over 50 lbs over the past 4 months by intermittent fasting and eating a ketogenic, or carnivore type of proper human diet.
I tried a test meal to see how difficult a 72 hour sardine fast was going to be. I didn't have to wait three days, got results in more like three hours. My blood sugar took a nosedive and stayed down for nearly a day. One meal. Your mileage may vary.

Which is absolutely needed when you’re trying to build muscle.🏋️ That’s why they say to eat 20 g of protein every hour in your eating window. After work out /muscle tearing. And to be honest, this would be one of the best ways to do that or at least two or three cans of sardines, while eating it with eating some red meat 🥩on that day!!!🤔
72 years old, been eating a can of sardines every day for 3 years, triglycerides 45, hdl 100, ldl 109. my doctor wants to put me on statins. by the way, King Osker Mediterranean style sardines are by far the best. (and the most expensive)

You just need to eat less carbs, (especially refined carbs like bread and Processed foods) .Do this to reduce your blood sugar/ insulin level , and your body can stop resisting its excessive amount .
I waited until i was starving to eat a steaming bowl of sardines. I went 24 hours without eating during the sardine fast to avoid the sardines.... But, the little that I did eat made a difference.
I thought I hated sardines but had a tin in the cupboard, packed in spicy oil. After watching this I thought I'd give them a try. They were delicious! I just ordered more.
@@markmcmahen9442 The point of sardine fast is to have olive oil and protein with no carbs - if you get sardines in water you’re missing the fat you need to produce ketones.
@@Tekukuno which one? Because I was wondering whether boquerones or alici, basically fresh, olive-oil and lemon marinated anchovies would also work, since I LOVE those, sardines not so much (not a question to you, obviously ;), only saying because I guess I’m not the only European who has been wondering…)
i have eaten 3 days only the sardines . day 1 and two i had around 1 to 1.5 ketones day3 was 2.5. now im water fastin in the 30. hour and my ketones are around 4. blood sugar 70 ketones 4.edit: after 48 hours of fasting i broke my fast with 5 eggs 2 pieces of dark chocolate and a hand full of pistacios. 2 hours after breaking my fast i measured glucose (72) and ketones (round about 6). i feel amazing and im not hungry at all because im eating my bodys fat, which i have a lot of. best wishes from germany.
I didn't think pistachios and dark chocale would be fast breaking meal and still have good numbers! I be eating bone broth and eggs cours I go for long fasts. Usually not too short but I didn't think about the fasts we do naturally everyday.
Ive lost 23 lbs in last 2.5 months on intermittent fasting...variate the fasts with 2 full day eating windows to keep from plateauing ... also keep protein high with mct oil and more complex carbs from veggies off fast... very importantl: drink lots of electrolyte water as you pee more [ i make my own magnesium , potassium, Himalayan salt blends with lime or lemon juice].....now im doing 3 day sardine fasts to get to deeper stubborn visceral fat in belly...last 3 day lost 1.5 lbs of visceral fat ... other benefits - increased solid energy levels, clearer mind and brighter tighter skin [ get compliments of looking younger]😁🥳
I started eating a tin of sardines every day for lunch and the weight has started to fall off. I never thought of using them for weight loss, but I am seeing results. A tin of sardines is surprisingly filling and nutricious (and delicious). In the country where I live they come packed in olive oil, and that's fine. I remember being in the US and seeing them packed in mustard or tomato sauce, I would like to try them someday. Sardines and anchovies are plentiful fresh local fish and many restaurants serve them fried and I will try them soon. I also see them on sale fresh at the fish market but don't have the courage to attempt to clean and cook them. Thanks for the recommendation.
Dr. Boz is an MD and knows her stuff. You can question her or try her advice. Personally, I have tried IF and "dirty" keto but have simply lost and regained the same 4 pounds for months. This week I've tried her "sardine" fast and have found it relatively easy. I began Monday at 1p with a can or sardines and here I am, Saturday at 9am after 116 HOURS and the only thing I've had are 5 cans of sardines throughout the week. MUCH easier than I anticipated and I'm down 11 pounds. Sure part of this is water but I know my body has made a huge shift as my ketones are at their highest (2.2) that I've ever measured. Give it a try! (Hint: I drain the oil from the can and replace it with higher quality evoo and mct oil. I also add a sprinkle of Old Bay and about 1/2 tsp of horseradish. Yum!)
@@julieellis6793 Great question! (I hope I'm not stepping on Dr Boz's toes but here's my understanding.) Part of the point of eating sardines is: 1) to have a balanced ratio of protein to fat (for instance canned tuna or salmon have too much protein vs fat) and 2) fat is satiating - it will help "fill you up" even though there isn't much. The medical/health industry did us all a great disservice telling us all these years (decades!) that low fat is good. When you cut out the fat, you have to replace it with something and that something is often carbohydrates. While water certainly isn't a carb, draining the oil from sardines to replace it with water will 1) make the sardines taste more 'fishy" and 2) won't leave you as satisfied/full, causing you to become hungry again sooner. Hope that helps!
Thank you Dr Boz. I have just recently found your channel and watching some of the older videos. I’m grateful for this one as you mention that ‘food addiction’ is real. Most medical doctors or teams don’t understand this. I am interested in learning more about this way of eating.
▬ Should I stop adding powder-cheese on my sardines, whip-cream in my coffee and added butter? Or is it ok? ▬ Can I add Butter or better Bacon grease or Beef tallow?
WOW.... I really appreciated you covering this topic in detail. I am one of those detail people with learning especially medical learning where I can easily get obsessed with all the minute details, cause and effect and projected success and Recovery. I've always had a calculator brain concerning math but I am even more extreme when it comes to medical learning and application.
Did the 72 hour water fast each week for 6 weeks when your new book came out. I had great results. I must say I was white knuckling through the whole fasting process. I wanted to try the water fast again but just could not face it. I think the Sardine fast might be the key for me. Thank you Dr. Boz.
you overdid it. 3 days every week for 6 weeks is not sustainable. too much of a good thing is a bad thing. 3 days of water fast 4 times a year is enough.
I'm on 56 hrs sardine fast and my ketones are 0.4. Im wondering how much fasting and sardine fasting I will need to do to become insulin sensitive. I am on a ketogenic diet. Just proteins and vegetables and fat. Edit:on 66 hrs, I had a reading of 1.9. So happy After my water fast, 72 hrs, my reading was the same. Except that I felt awful on the water fast and better on the sardine fast.
if you are keto, you should already be insulin sensitive. but if your ketones are 0.4 then you are eating too many vegetables. or the wrong kind. go to straight carnivore. no need for veggies.
Dr Boz, do you think that doing the Sardine Diet on an Alternate Day Basis, 3 times per week (i.e. M, W, F), could be equally as beneficial, if the person follows Ketovore on their eating days? (Keto & Carnivore). TY!
If you have been suffering from insulin resistance for many years, fatty liver, fat belly, high cholesterol, you are not aware that you are not metabolically flexible enough to switch to ketosis very easily just because you are willing to water fast again and again. Thank you for showing that sardines during fasting actually primes the ketosis process for the next time. Thank you for pointing out MCT oil can also promote ketosis. I am so grateful for this truth Dr.Oz , I can fast for the rest of my life not just to reduce my weight but also my insulin resistance😅.😅. I am hoping reducing my insulin resistance can eventually reduce that LDL..
I just finished reading a book called The Great Cholesterol Myth by Jonny Bowden, PhD & Stephen Sinatra, MD. Cholesterol isn't the cause of heart disease. It's sugar, oxidation, insulin resistance, and processed foods. They do become an issue when we are insulin resistant and diabetic. We are here with Dr. Boz to fix the insulin resistance and lower the likelihood of a cardiac event. Back in the 70's, cholesterol could be in 350+ range and be OK. Read the book. It is very interesting! Good luck!
I love your information. I hate sardines. My A1C thankfully is 5.2 from 6.0 a year ago. I’m a figure competitor and a Chiropractor and I have always been lean. So the high A1C was a surprise to me since I’ve always been extraordinary lean. Around 12 % BF for most my days. Also my fasted insulin is always less than 3. I have many patients doing keto or at least low carb depending on their goals and blood work. Thank You for what you do. I know I want to start my own channel as well as share yours!
The wild planet no salt in water (not oil) whole sardines (head cut off, liver typically not present, unfortunately),…. are good,… they've got 'x-factor' for me.
If I add kimchi to sardines I can do this. Is there a minimum number of cans per day? I don't feel hungry but messed up ketone production. Is one meal per day of sardines good enough?
What kind of sardines do you get? I recently started having a tin with my packed lunches. Normally I eat 3 or 4 pickled eggs but needed something different. The taste is growing on me. Mustard or hot sauce helps.
Thank you Dr. Boz for the freebies, and looking forward to reading everything, going on the sardine fast and then the water fast. At that point I will make an appointment. God bless you, your family and your practice in fathomless measure.
One of the live questions asked if you can go into autophagy on the sardine fast. You can’t go into autpphagy on sardines as the mTOR pathway needs to switch off and AMPK needs to switch on to allow autophagy. This won’t happen while consuming proteins.
I am hoping Dr. Boz sees this question; would an egg fast be as beneficial as a sardine fast? I really like sardines, but to strictly eat sardines only for 3 days would make me not eat another sardine. Eggs, on the other hand, maybe more doable with the different ways to cook. There are a lot of info on RUclips regarding an egg fast. Just a thought…
Sorry all! but I need to understand. Is sardine fast Better Than a WATER Fast ? For how many days? I would like to do 7 days. So, need to decide about sardines or water. Need help!
Hi, I liked your analysis method today! I'm trying the sardines, but have not got any meters. Beginning every Sunday at noon, I will try it. Not a sick person, I'm looking for preventive maintenance.
Riga Gold smoked sardines are great, right out of the jar. A cheaper choice is Walmart sardines in oil. I take them and split , take backbone out , heat a tablespoon or two of butter in frying pan with some garlic salt. I think they are pretty good.
One thing is for sure when a person reaches autophagy they know it!!! Of course this is only my opinion but on my fourth day of fasting I was amazed at the energy and was tempted to fast another five days
The same thing happened to me, my first can and I got a DAY LONG burst of energy like nothing I have ever felt before in my entire life ! , I am assuming its because of either high as hell ketones or if the metabolism (and IR I assume as well) did a jump up or something, the selenium can boost thyroid stuff as well... One of the most interesting things I have done on my keto journey. I now mix them with avocado mayo for a mock "tuna salad".
Water Fast! the term water fast Always confused me literally that would mean fast from water. Whenever I fast and most people do they drink lots of water. Sardines are great but eating any thing will keep you from autophagy.
@@slinger777 not true, ive done it check out dr boz sardine fast. I'm telling you it worked. I have done 3 day water fasts and that sardine fast boosted ketones and my energy
@@jfcrum99 I think Dr Boz buys with oil. But I am like you. I would rather buy in water and add oil or mayo made with quality oil. Some companies may pack in quality oil, but I don't see them at my grocery store. Everything I find is in soybean oil.
I needed to hear this. One year keto, carbs under 10g, high fat protein, lost 72 lbs and lowered A1c from 9.5 to 5.1. Triglycerides from 1386 to 200. Still too high and have another 40 lbs to lose. However I have been OMAD mostly last 6 months and losing zero wt, BG seldom under 100. I cannot afford a meter that measures ketones but have my glucomter. Still going to try the sardine fast as 36 hr fasts seem to have little effect.
Excess caloric deficit starves your gut microbiome of fibre...when this happens, they start to eat your intestinal walls ...resulting in leaky gut syndrome .Feed your gut fibre and maintain your metabolic health.
Dear Dr. Boz, I thought that autophagy was about restricting proteins to under 16 grams while fasting and carbs under 20 grams. I'm confused about how eating sardines can keep someone in autophagy because of all the protein intake. Isn't it true that we want the body to eat its own protein? Anyway... I'm learning and I've learned soooo much from you! Thank you for all your hard work and your videos!
@Poire Tartin I wasn't following Longo's mimicking fast, but rather I did a 72 hour water and coffee fast and got my GKI down to 0.9 to 1.1 then after 72 hours I switched to fat only for 4 more days and kept my numbers 1.1 to 1.5. But i didn't take any protein. I was confused about taking the protein in the sardines. If that works I'd much rather do that.
Recently discovered your channel and slowly working my way through them all - great stuff!!! Thank you for taking the time and effort to make and upload all your videos. Question about cans of sardines. Every can of any brand of sardines in olive oil or water seems to contain 0g of trans fats. I know that means there is less than 10% per serving size but it’s still odd and also worrying to see it labeled. The ingredients list says “fish, olive oil” or “fish, water” - so where is the trans fats coming from? This is also the same for any brand of cans of salmon. I’m very disconcerted about this - does anyone have an answer why, or perhaps a theory??
I'm 75 been doing keto went carnivore for three week's. Now I'm exploring sardines fast. I get upset stomach that I've never had this problems with before. Attack starts while I'm eating them. Tried butter and heating them which made them chock down able. Im on third day now. Should I stay on course and continue?
I will be having a bilateral mastectomy in 9 days. I plan on trying sardines (not a fast at this time). Any advice going into surgery and post surgery. I have lost 32 pounds since May on Keto.
At about the 52:00 mark Dr. Boz addresses what to do the other four days and I want to make sure I'm understanding. It seems like she's saying basically do sort of a one meal a day for those 4 days. Am I hearing her correctly? {I lost 45 lb doing OMAD for 8+ months. Then lived in Germany for 9 months while learning about ALTERNATE DAY FASTING, which I only started this past April and did successfully. I did 148 hour fast as a test and it was fairly easy.} I understand the fast (timer) literally starts with the first can of sardines consumed. My question (and I'll go back and listen to other videos also) is:: after that, do I only eat the sardines when I'm hungry?
I have been Ketovore for over 2 yrs, my weight has stabilized with this. But...glucose stays above 100 and low ketones (breath testing). Got a Keto mojo and started sardine challenge BS now in the 80's after 24 hours and ketones 2.2 after 24 hours. Not hungry and feeling good. Had been on metformin many years. So must have been very insulin resistant. Thank you so much. PS I will be 76 in March and am 5ft 2inches.
I just did the Sardine Challenge. I liked the Sardine Challenge because I slept better during the challenge. However, I haven't done well after the challenge. First, the morning afte (which was today) I woke up at 3:00 am, BP normal but my glucose was 124, which iI don't usually have. I will admit that I'm concerned about metabolism because of high insulin, and fasting glucose of 94 to 104. The biggest problem is that if I don't eat my usual foods for three days, when I go back to eating, boom, terrible reactions, which is what happened today. So, not sure. I like the Sardine Challenge because I have food allergies and I don't have a problem with sardines. Who knows? I could lose weight. I have done water fasts, but the hyper reactions to food after a water fast is about the same.
In 🇨🇦 our stores don’t have a lot of choice so far I have tried Brunswick in water, okay I prefer the Gold Seal in water, I add my own fat, apple cider vinegar and mustard
Olive oil and water, mustard,tomato have sugar added in many. Ensure no carbs , as they mean no ketones, olive oil, some mustard , vinegar is 0carbs. Read label
Could these results also be mimicked in other High Omega 3 foods? Or if all your fats were sourced from omega 3 like grass fed meat and eggs? Also wondering if mackerel would have similar results.... I know wild caught Tuna has omega 3's but in a much lower amount as well. Definitely an interesting study but would be interested if you expanded further into more omega 3 options
Dr. Boz, what about DeepSea Alaska Sockeye Salmon Ingredients: Salmon and salt not sure it's packed in water doesn't say. Have hadbI think it is in water not oil. Could eat with buttet. Olive oil ot Avacado oil or MCT oil only have butter and olive oil.
what would be the best fasting protocol for weight loss and gut repair? I was thinking about: starting with 72hr sardines, then 72hr water only, then another 24hr fo bone broth fast - do this regimen 4 times a year. how often should we do this "sardines fasting" ?
Ive been in carnivore for 5 weeks and committed- I feel great but alas no weight loss even zero carb. Fasting Blood glucose hasn’t ever been over 85 but this morning and several other morning recently it has been 114-119. Ketones at 0.3. I’m 64 , no gall bladder- I just purchased your ketone capsules- hoping to bump ketones.
You may have lots of sugar stored in your liver. Check out jason fung on why you may have higher fasting glucose especially when one initially starts fasting. Don't give up.
When you fast your body consumes weak and diseaqsed cells first! That is why God so commands us to fast! 72 hrs is NOT enough! I've cured several cronic ills I had by fasting for over 30 days!
Why would your body break down muscle tissue for energy if you still have lots of body fat available? I have listened to quite a few of Dr. Jason Fung’s lectures, and he says your body is very smart and will not break down muscles for energy if fat is available.
Does anyone know of a video where Dr. Boz went into more depth about not fasting longer than 72 hrs? She mentions it here and talks some about it but I would like to hear more about the pros and cons. Thanks in advance

So I ate sardines for 24 hours, wasn't hungry so didn't eat for the next 24 hours, ate sardines after 24 hours. My GKI is 2.6!!!! Don't know if I can make it any longer on sardines.
fascinating! what happens when you don't fast and have sardines with, say, eggs, every morning. I do not check my ketones, because I am not worried about them for me, but I would imagine they also increase somewhat, no?

Sardines are actually delicious if you make a dressing with olive oil, AVC, lemon juice, tomato purée and cayenne pepper.
i have eaten 3 days only the sardines . day 1 and two i had around 1 to 1.5 ketones day3 was 2.5. now im water fastin in the 30. hour and my ketones are around 4. blood sugar 70 ketones 4.edit: after 48 hours of fasting i broke my fast with 5 eggs 2 pieces of dark chocolate and a hand full of pistacios. 2 hours after breaking my fast i measured glucose (72) and ketones (round about 6).
i feel amazing and im not hungry at all because im eating my bodys fat, which i have a lot of. best wishes from germany.
I didn't think pistachios and dark chocale would be fast breaking meal and still have good numbers! I be eating bone broth and eggs cours I go for long fasts. Usually not too short but I didn't think about the fasts we do naturally everyday.
I think it really depends on the individual. I personally eat 99% dark chocolate it has zero net carb @@gingercameronfordcrouch7057
as a sardine lover from the home of sardines Morocco.. I LOVE THIS VIDEO
Ha ha... Yay!
hi othmane..can you share how often do you take sardines?how many times a day..
@@leanashaari9749 Very often in a week but not daily
Hum ... I'm loving this video, right now all over Portugal is collectively raising their ketones. 🎉
Sardines have secondary homes too haha@@ropi8739
Ive lost 23 lbs in last 2.5 months on intermittent fasting...variate the fasts with 2 full day eating windows to keep from plateauing ... also keep protein high with mct oil and more complex carbs from veggies off fast... very importantl: drink lots of electrolyte water as you pee more [ i make my own magnesium , potassium, Himalayan salt blends with lime or lemon juice].....now im doing 3 day sardine fasts to get to deeper stubborn visceral fat in belly...last 3 day lost 1.5 lbs of visceral fat ... other benefits - increased solid energy levels, clearer mind and brighter tighter skin [ get compliments of looking younger]😁🥳
How are you figuring the viseral fat? The body composition scale? I have one hoping it's accurate enough!
hi 2 factors is 1. composition scale and 2. visually my belly circumference is shrinking @@gingercameronfordcrouch7057
We prayed you would be safe ! God answers prayer!❤
I started eating a tin of sardines every day for lunch and the weight has started to fall off. I never thought of using them for weight loss, but I am seeing results. A tin of sardines is surprisingly filling and nutricious (and delicious). In the country where I live they come packed in olive oil, and that's fine. I remember being in the US and seeing them packed in mustard or tomato sauce, I would like to try them someday. Sardines and anchovies are plentiful fresh local fish and many restaurants serve them fried and I will try them soon. I also see them on sale fresh at the fish market but don't have the courage to attempt to clean and cook them. Thanks for the recommendation.
I just can't see how eating a can of sardines every day would cause you to lose weight. Am I missing something?
Dr. Boz is an MD and knows her stuff. You can question her or try her advice.
Personally, I have tried IF and "dirty" keto but have simply lost and regained the same 4 pounds for months.
This week I've tried her "sardine" fast and have found it relatively easy. I began Monday at 1p with a can or sardines and here I am, Saturday at 9am after 116 HOURS and the only thing I've had are 5 cans of sardines throughout the week. MUCH easier than I anticipated and I'm down 11 pounds. Sure part of this is water but I know my body has made a huge shift as my ketones are at their highest (2.2) that I've ever measured. Give it a try! (Hint: I drain the oil from the can and replace it with higher quality evoo and mct oil. I also add a sprinkle of Old Bay and about 1/2 tsp of horseradish. Yum!)
@@adamstewart4368thank you. Would using sardines in water work as well?
Also, do you eat a regular dinner or fast during that time?
@@julieellis6793 Great question! (I hope I'm not stepping on Dr Boz's toes but here's my understanding.) Part of the point of eating sardines is: 1) to have a balanced ratio of protein to fat (for instance canned tuna or salmon have too much protein vs fat) and 2) fat is satiating - it will help "fill you up" even though there isn't much. The medical/health industry did us all a great disservice telling us all these years (decades!) that low fat is good. When you cut out the fat, you have to replace it with something and that something is often carbohydrates. While water certainly isn't a carb, draining the oil from sardines to replace it with water will 1) make the sardines taste more 'fishy" and 2) won't leave you as satisfied/full, causing you to become hungry again sooner. Hope that helps!
Thank you Dr Boz. I have just recently found your channel and watching some of the older videos. I’m grateful for this one as you mention that ‘food addiction’ is real. Most medical doctors or teams don’t understand this. I am interested in learning more about this way of eating.
▬ Should I stop adding powder-cheese on my sardines,
whip-cream in my coffee and added butter? Or is it ok?
▬ Can I add Butter or better Bacon grease or Beef tallow?
Depends upon where you’re at
Eventually that’s important .. but timing for that reduction is important
WOW.... I really appreciated you covering this topic in detail. I am one of those detail people with learning especially medical learning where I can easily get obsessed with all the minute details, cause and effect and projected success and Recovery. I've always had a calculator brain concerning math but I am even more extreme when it comes to medical learning and application.
Beautiful lady. Just looks so healthy. Obviously she practices what she preaches.
Agree but her nose is red?
Did the 72 hour water fast each week for 6 weeks when your new book came out. I had great results. I must say I was white knuckling through the whole fasting process. I wanted to try the water fast again but just could not face it. I think the Sardine fast might be the key for me. Thank you Dr. Boz.
you overdid it. 3 days every week for 6 weeks is not sustainable. too much of a good thing is a bad thing. 3 days of water fast 4 times a year is enough.
@@baranjan4172 Did her protocol per her book. Just a little to extreme for me. Must test it to see how it works. This protocol just better for me.
What is her protocol in her book pls?
@@rindarossouw1725 - She said in her first comment.👆🏼
That is a Dr Fung protocol for weight loss and diabetes control. @@baranjan4172. M,W,F fasting.
interesting. I've been needing some sort of reset. I'm going to give this a try.
I'm on 56 hrs sardine fast and my ketones are 0.4.
Im wondering how much fasting and sardine fasting I will need to do to become insulin sensitive. I am on a ketogenic diet. Just proteins and vegetables and fat.
Edit:on 66 hrs, I had a reading of 1.9.
So happy
After my water fast, 72 hrs, my reading was the same. Except that I felt awful on the water fast and better on the sardine fast.
Yay!
AWESOME!!! They shot up fast. Nice.
Thanks for sharing 😊
if you are keto, you should already be insulin sensitive. but if your ketones are 0.4 then you are eating too many vegetables. or the wrong kind. go to straight carnivore. no need for veggies.
You did?
Dr Boz, do you think that doing the Sardine Diet on an Alternate Day Basis, 3 times per week (i.e. M, W, F), could be equally as beneficial, if the person follows Ketovore on their eating days? (Keto & Carnivore). TY!
If you have been suffering from insulin resistance for many years, fatty liver, fat belly, high cholesterol, you are not aware that you are not metabolically flexible enough to switch to ketosis very easily just because you are willing to water fast again and again. Thank you for showing that sardines during fasting actually primes the ketosis process for the next time. Thank you for pointing out MCT oil can also promote ketosis. I am so grateful for this truth Dr.Oz , I can fast for the rest of my life not just to reduce my weight but also my insulin resistance😅.😅. I am hoping reducing my insulin resistance can eventually reduce that LDL..
I just finished reading a book called The Great Cholesterol Myth by Jonny Bowden, PhD & Stephen Sinatra, MD. Cholesterol isn't the cause of heart disease. It's sugar, oxidation, insulin resistance, and processed foods. They do become an issue when we are insulin resistant and diabetic. We are here with Dr. Boz to fix the insulin resistance and lower the likelihood of a cardiac event. Back in the 70's, cholesterol could be in 350+ range and be OK. Read the book. It is very interesting! Good luck!
Good stuff!! Common sense, no fads, consistent data.
I love your information. I hate sardines. My A1C thankfully is 5.2 from 6.0 a year ago. I’m a figure competitor and a Chiropractor and I have always been lean. So the high A1C was a surprise to me since I’ve always been extraordinary lean. Around 12 % BF for most my days. Also my fasted insulin is always less than 3. I have many patients doing keto or at least low carb depending on their goals and blood work. Thank You for what you do. I know I want to start my own channel as well as share yours!
The wild planet no salt in water (not oil) whole sardines (head cut off, liver typically not present, unfortunately),…. are good,… they've got 'x-factor' for me.
@@bonsummers2657 Do you add extra evoo? I ordered this case from amazon. Claims 8g of fat but doesn't feel fatty.
If I add kimchi to sardines I can do this. Is there a minimum number of cans per day? I don't feel hungry but messed up ketone production. Is one meal per day of sardines good enough?
What kind of sardines do you get? I recently started having a tin with my packed lunches. Normally I eat 3 or 4 pickled eggs but needed something different. The taste is growing on me. Mustard or hot sauce helps.
I'm glad you get to fill your cup. If you don't fill up, you have nothing to give.❤
Thank you Dr. Boz for the freebies, and looking forward to reading everything, going on the sardine fast and then the water fast. At that point I will make an appointment. God bless you, your family and your practice in fathomless measure.
One of the live questions asked if you can go into autophagy on the sardine fast. You can’t go into autpphagy on sardines as the mTOR pathway needs to switch off and AMPK needs to switch on to allow autophagy. This won’t happen while consuming proteins.
This is why it would be better to do a straight fat fast.
@Poire Tartin I think sardines or any keto diet are a great way to prime your body before doing a water fast.
I am hoping Dr. Boz sees this question; would an egg fast be as beneficial as a sardine fast? I really like sardines, but to strictly eat sardines only for 3 days would make me not eat another sardine. Eggs, on the other hand, maybe more doable with the different ways to cook. There are a lot of info on RUclips regarding an egg fast. Just a thought…
Maybe raw eggs.
@@njsongwriter , how about poached, or soft/hard boiled?
I eat three or four raw egg yolks a day and cook the whites in a little butter to kill the avidin.
Maybe eggs scrambled in a liberal amount of MCT oil (highly ketogenic).
I've over consumed eggs. Stay close to a toilet.
Sorry all! but I need to understand. Is sardine fast Better Than a WATER Fast ? For how many days? I would like to do 7 days. So, need to decide about sardines or water. Need help!
Hi, I liked your analysis method today! I'm trying the sardines, but have not got any meters. Beginning every Sunday at noon, I will try it. Not a sick person, I'm looking for preventive maintenance.
Riga Gold smoked sardines are great, right out of the jar. A cheaper choice is Walmart sardines in oil. I take them and split , take backbone out , heat a tablespoon or two of butter in frying pan with some garlic salt. I think they are pretty good.
I haven't tuned in in a while, I can definitely see a difference in your face. Much leaner looking.
Best tip for pictures. Scan the originals & put copies on the walls & keep originals in safe deposit boxes
Sardines in water or in extra virgin olive oil? I’m assuming that white anchovies and mackerel are okay, too?
27:47 sardines for 3 days for people who have lots of glucose in their body
Thank you!
Thank you
Thanks!!!
why sardines in oil? Why can´t it be tuna in oliv oil?
@@madlenj.4644 Tuna are caught much older (& bigger) than a sardine. Tuna bio-accumulate heavy metals. Sardines in oil are much healthier.
One thing is for sure when a person reaches autophagy they know it!!! Of course this is only my opinion but on my fourth day of fasting I was amazed at the energy and was tempted to fast another five days
Water fast or sardine fast?
The same thing happened to me, my first can and I got a DAY LONG burst of energy like nothing I have ever felt before in my entire life ! , I am assuming its because of either high as hell ketones or if the metabolism (and IR I assume as well) did a jump up or something, the selenium can boost thyroid stuff as well... One of the most interesting things I have done on my keto journey. I now mix them with avocado mayo for a mock "tuna salad".
Water Fast! the term water fast Always confused me literally that would mean fast from water. Whenever I fast and most people do they drink lots of water. Sardines are great but eating any thing will keep you from autophagy.
@@slinger777 not true, ive done it check out dr boz sardine fast. I'm telling you it worked. I have done 3 day water fasts and that sardine fast boosted ketones and my energy
Dr. Boz
Should the sardines be in water or olive oil? I ask because the olive oil isn't always the best quality.
I bought sardines in water and added 1 Tbsp of olive oil or cod liver oil.
@@jfcrum99 I think Dr Boz buys with oil. But I am like you. I would rather buy in water and add oil or mayo made with quality oil. Some companies may pack in quality oil, but I don't see them at my grocery store. Everything I find is in soybean oil.
@@crystalitsasecrete917
I bought King Oscar Brisling sardines yesterday packed in extra virgin olive oil.
I needed to hear this. One year keto, carbs under 10g, high fat protein, lost 72 lbs and lowered A1c from 9.5 to 5.1. Triglycerides from 1386 to 200. Still too high and have another 40 lbs to lose. However I have been OMAD mostly last 6 months and losing zero wt, BG seldom under 100. I cannot afford a meter that measures ketones but have my glucomter. Still going to try the sardine fast as 36 hr fasts seem to have little effect.
"A1c from 9.5 to 5.1. Triglycerides from 1386 to 200." Wow very impressive improvements!
U may need to up your fat and lower protein
I experience when I eat too much protein my body changed it into high blood sugars
Great job btw wow!!
Have you tried longer fasts?
Marianne - How did the sardines work for you?
I’m on a 7 day water fast and sardines sounds so good rn
Excess caloric deficit starves your gut microbiome of fibre...when this happens, they start to eat your intestinal walls ...resulting in leaky gut syndrome .Feed your gut fibre and maintain your metabolic health.
At 7 days a raw potato sounds divine 😅😅
My favorite sardines is King Oscar wild caught in Evoo & jalapeño peppers…
That sounds yummy
Dear Dr. Boz, I thought that autophagy was about restricting proteins to under 16 grams while fasting and carbs under 20 grams.
I'm confused about how eating sardines can keep someone in autophagy because of all the protein intake.
Isn't it true that we want the body to eat its own protein?
Anyway... I'm learning and I've learned soooo much from you!
Thank you for all your hard work and your videos!
@Poire Tartin I wasn't following Longo's mimicking fast, but rather I did a 72 hour water and coffee fast and got my GKI down to 0.9 to 1.1 then after 72 hours I switched to fat only for 4 more days and kept my numbers 1.1 to 1.5. But i didn't take any protein. I was confused about taking the protein in the sardines. If that works I'd much rather do that.
@Poire Tartin that sounds pretty good. I didn't think sardines would be good for autophagy.
@Poire Tartin that sounds pretty good. I didn't think sardines would be good for autophagy.
@@sampitrone I was in the course. She stated then that the sardine fast wasn’t going to produce autophagy.

I agree her talks are way to long even though very nformative even 20 min would be good
Yes we need a summary of just how many sardines to eat for a day and for how many days and expected results without all the word whiskers.
@Poire Tartin thank you! 🙌🏻
Day 3 of my sardine fast. This morning glucose was 69 and keystones 3.7!
Recently discovered your channel and slowly working my way through them all - great stuff!!! Thank you for taking the time and effort to make and upload all your videos.
Question about cans of sardines. Every can of any brand of sardines in olive oil or water seems to contain 0g of trans fats. I know that means there is less than 10% per serving size but it’s still odd and also worrying to see it labeled. The ingredients list says “fish, olive oil” or “fish, water” - so where is the trans fats coming from? This is also the same for any brand of cans of salmon. I’m very disconcerted about this - does anyone have an answer why, or perhaps a theory??
What do you eat if you are allergic to all fish and seafood?
I lost 13 pounds in 3 days eating only sardines , 4 or 5 can's a day and coffee and tea with Stevia.
Did you put cream in
your coffee at that time? I've been using cream and butter in mine while fasting.

I'm 75 been doing keto went carnivore for three week's. Now I'm exploring sardines fast. I get upset stomach that I've never had this problems with before. Attack starts while I'm eating them. Tried butter and heating them which made them chock down able. Im on third day now. Should I stay on course and continue?
I will be having a bilateral mastectomy in 9 days. I plan on trying sardines (not a fast at this time). Any advice going into surgery and post surgery. I have lost 32 pounds since May on Keto.
At about the 52:00 mark Dr. Boz addresses what to do the other four days and I want to make sure I'm understanding. It seems like she's saying basically do sort of a one meal a day for those 4 days. Am I hearing her correctly?
{I lost 45 lb doing OMAD for 8+ months. Then lived in Germany for 9 months while learning about ALTERNATE DAY FASTING, which I only started this past April and did successfully. I did 148 hour fast as a test and it was fairly easy.}
I understand the fast (timer) literally starts with the first can of sardines consumed. My question (and I'll go back and listen to other videos also) is:: after that, do I only eat the sardines when I'm hungry?
I have been Ketovore for over 2 yrs, my weight has stabilized with this. But...glucose stays above 100 and low ketones (breath testing). Got a Keto mojo and started sardine challenge BS now in the 80's after 24 hours and ketones 2.2 after 24 hours. Not hungry and feeling good. Had been on metformin many years. So must have been very insulin resistant. Thank you so much. PS I will be 76 in March and am 5ft 2inches.
I just did the Sardine Challenge. I liked the Sardine Challenge because I slept better during the challenge. However, I haven't done well after the challenge. First, the morning afte (which was today) I woke up at 3:00 am, BP normal but my glucose was 124, which iI don't usually have. I will admit that I'm concerned about metabolism because of high insulin, and fasting glucose of 94 to 104. The biggest problem is that if I don't eat my usual foods for three days, when I go back to eating, boom, terrible reactions, which is what happened today. So, not sure. I like the Sardine Challenge because I have food allergies and I don't have a problem with sardines. Who knows? I could lose weight. I have done water fasts, but the hyper reactions to food after a water fast is about the same.
I read that the two best brands for sardines are King Oscar and Crown Prince. The Brisling sardines are with skin and bones.
In 🇨🇦 our stores don’t have a lot of choice so far I have tried Brunswick in water, okay I prefer the Gold Seal in water, I add my own fat, apple cider vinegar and mustard
Hi Dr. Boz!
I have a question, does it matter what the sardine is packed with? is water best or can you eat the ones with mustard or tomato?
Olive oil and water, mustard,tomato have sugar added in many. Ensure no carbs , as they mean no ketones, olive oil, some mustard , vinegar is 0carbs. Read label
Could these results also be mimicked in other High Omega 3 foods? Or if all your fats were sourced from omega 3 like grass fed meat and eggs? Also wondering if mackerel would have similar results....
I know wild caught Tuna has omega 3's but in a much lower amount as well.
Definitely an interesting study but would be interested if you expanded further into more omega 3 options
Dr. Boz, what about DeepSea Alaska Sockeye Salmon Ingredients: Salmon and salt not sure it's packed in water doesn't say. Have hadbI think it is in water not oil. Could eat with buttet. Olive oil ot Avacado oil or MCT oil only have butter and olive oil.
I did a 3 day sardine challenge and lost 2.5lbs but finally my ketones are doing great!

Ive been in carnivore for 5 weeks and committed- I feel great but alas no weight loss even zero carb. Fasting Blood glucose hasn’t ever been over 85 but this morning and several other morning recently it has been 114-119. Ketones at 0.3.

When you fast your body consumes weak and diseaqsed cells first! That is why God so commands us to fast! 72 hrs is NOT enough! I've cured several cronic ills I had by fasting for over 30 days!
That's amazing 30 days. I may work my way up to that someday. Thanks for your input and God bless 🙏 🙂
Why would your body break down muscle tissue for energy if you still have lots of body fat available? I have listened to quite a few of Dr. Jason Fung’s lectures, and he says your body is very smart and will not break down muscles for energy if fat is available.
