Hey Thomas....im a RN....and I can say hell yes u can drink too much water not only one a fast but in general!! I see people doing keto on here always going on about drinking copious amounts of water. This is very dangerous. When we drink too much water our electrolytes are diluted and copious fluid and electrolyte are lost in the urine. I had a 35yr old patient going to town on water and chewing ice. She developed a condition called "diabetes insipidous" this condition has nothing to do with blood sugars. This happens when someone consumes water too the point of intoxication...causes increased intracranial pressure. Her electrolytes fell causing heart complications and loss of blood pressure and she passed away from this. People do not understand the dangers of consuming too much water....ive only seen u talk about this and Dr berg!! But people should be taught about water intoxication...u must include electrolyte replacement...or water can have desasterous consequences...
Glad I read your comment. I've always had an insatiable thirst as well as high BP and on 3 different meds. I wonder if perhaps that's been my problem all along. I mean even when I was a professional athlete I had high BP..I had it since I was 13 and actually remember one dr suggesting that but was never again checked on.
Ugh I drink a ridiculous amount of water, glad to be reading this and learning maybe I should cut back sometimes, cuz there are times I drink a lot of water and then almost feel a little intoxicated for a bit.
Ppl who are anemic eat ice? Its called pica! Im wondering what all u underlying issues she had besides drinking water. They could have spent that in s way to look like water killed her. Just saying
@@valjean2036 yes pica is usually related to anemia ...people crave both ice and other non nutritious things. Some people even eat dirt or soap ect...ive had pica many times and if craved and ate a ton of ice and i ate the heck out of tomatoes with salt and I had severe anemia as well. This patient started off enjoying the pellet ice and water but once her electrolytes were out of balance she began overflowing her bedpan and was so thirsty she kept drinking and in doing so her electrolytes were so diluted and she had lost so much sodium ect...i took carenof this lady many times ...on the night on question I was not her nurse but in the morning I was about to leave my job and this patient rolled up on her wheel chair n told me she felt very weak and dizzy. I Checked her BP it was 60/30...i called her doctor n told her in suapected diabetes insipidous because they patients cna explained that she was drinking a ton of water and over flowing her bedpan....the poor woman died when she got to hospital...water intoxication is real...rarely talked about
I noticed that whilst low carb and fasting, when I drink too much water I get more colder i.e 8 glasses a day. Now I just have 2 glasses and not cold at all.
Your urine should be HAY COLOR. If darker drink water, if lighter do not drink water, as it will drain water soluble vitamins, minerals and nutrients prematurely.
Close to zero. Hydrate with juice milk coconut water bone broth etc. Fasting destroys vitamin D synthesis, optimize mitochondrial biogenesis first by building functional muscle to your genetic capacity.
Body type activity etc vary greatly & thus makes that answer vary greatly- you really don't want an answer to that via the internet, if you don't have a family Dr you can trust & are not good at reading scientific papers then TRUST your body... it will tell you when it needs something & exercise some discipline: is your urge for water a substitute for hunger & not eating? Is it because you are bored & want to relax for a minute while you are on the computer or working? If you are doing physical activity during a fast then you need to be able to KNOW your body chem & what you are deficient in, so you may have to get tested... generally if you take electrolytes, Himalayan salt PLUS a good organic natural sea salt then you will probably be ok with three large glasses of water a day so 3 Quarts max... if you are NOT active physically then reduce that & listen to your body... this recommendation is without knowing your body type age current health so if you are NOT average build age height please see a Dr or read up on the research... Avg Age 30, Avg weight 180lbs Avg Height 5-10... so if you deviate from those then adjust as your body requires it & just be aware of whether your body needs something or is it your mind/psyche/emotions/ etc etc
Great video. Magnesium Glycinate and Vitamin B 12 Methocobalamin are the 2 things that I started taking a month or 2 ago and I can feel the difference.
Your info is plenty The video is well presented HOWEVER You almost NEVER EVER reply to your viewers which I’ve noticed on all your videos Is it possible to reply to all ? Likely not Some ? Be nice to see
the ~ 'y' shaped symbol also caught my eye... I still think the recommendation he is giving is valid tho... good call: research is important & a good thing whenever someone does that- BIG THUMBS UP for you!
This is such a great point. Makes sense too - back in the day, most of the water those people were drinking had rich amounts of minerals in it because of the ground filtration. That's something most water sources miss today!
Irrelevant to the video topic but! Thomas when I got off my keto on a cheat day after clean month keto - my stomatch was in pain and I wanted to throw out. Do you know why it happened? Is it common after breaking diet? Is added sugar really that bad for you and poisonous?
Probably has something to do with alterations in your gut microbiome, maybe something negative due to the fact that candida can thrive on fat and sugar but not necessarily beneficial fiber or starches
Sugar IS A POISON... you must stop thinking you are on a "diet" & begin to EMBRACE your way of LIFE- GOD intended you to EAT ONE MEAL A DAY... make sure you get all of your nutrition, but just as the earth has 4 seasons, & your life has 4 seasons... each day has 4 seasons... in fall the harvest comes in & there is plenty... fall is ONE Season... the other Three seasons you prepare for that bounty... IOW: You eat 1 meal a day & the other 3 seasons of your day you do not eat- you prepare for that season of eating & you use the food you ate in activity & you rest to repair & replenish! So, that's my advice.
That was an excellent video... allowing us to read the papers you use as a source is a level of scrutiny into ones advice & recommendations 99% of others do not provide... research is good & taking the time to understand the reasons behind your advice & recommendations builds confidence in those who watch your vids, so that they know they are being given TRUTHFUL & science backed nutritional advice... in a world of deceit this is curative... thanks a ton my O.M.A.D Way of Life is totally awesome- I wish I new this when I was young, finding this out when you are 56 is not good but it is better than never finding out at all... your work is valuable keep up the good work & don't forget to pray... you HELP people- you deserve to be in heaven for that- however there is ONLY 1 way into heaven so please pray & make sure you get your well earned reward.Peace TRUTH Justice Liam
All the good works in the world will get no one into heaven. The problem is much more dire than “praying” or “having faith”. You are right that there is only one way, and He said “I AM.. the Way, The Truth, and The Life. No one comes but by Me.” We ALL have earned hell already- you cannot overturn your death sentence by trying to bribe The Just Judge with pocket change when you are guilty of murder. Repent… and trust in Jesus Christ as you would trust a parachute jumping out of a plane in mid flight. He paid the ultimate price so that you may live with The Creator of the Universe eternally, because this life is more than good health and fitness.
Snake juice 2 parts sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) 1 part sodium chloride (table salt) 2 parts potassium chloride (NoSalt) 1 part magnesium sulfate (FOOD GRADE epson salt) 4 cups water (and I might go 5 or 6 cups) 2 parts = 1/2 teaspoon 1 part = 1/4 teaspoon
This isn't really good info. What he didn't add was if you feel hungry during your fast that's exactly when you need drink a bunch of water. Most people are usually thirsty when they think they are hungry. It's really hard too hurt your body by drinking too much water because our bodys need water for so many different things. drink a gallon a day and you'll be fine.
Had hyponatremia twice now, just from drinking water cos, hey! Bored/hungry. BIG MISTAKE! We as people get into the habit of chugging water, thinking it's harmless. For me it's been the most difficult habit to break. I seem particularly prone to losing electrolytes for some reason. On keto you really don't need that much water. To people who say: nothing can survive without water, I reply: nothing can survive without electrolytes!
Hey Tom, with increasing inflation and World dramas we don't know how crazy the economy will get. I was thinking maybe you could do a video for people that are really poor and have limited access to Quality Foods and vitamins and minerals. Okay thanks 👍
I really like this. That’s good stuff, I take creatine hcl. I like methyl b12 w/methyl folate. Hey, what’s your opinion on the rabbit hole of oral grade hydrogen peroxide? Is it worth an informational video? Your thoughts on possible benefits for athletic performance, & immune preservation? Not necessarily related, but Strontium is nice 👌🏻 if I remember correctly take it separately from magnesium.
I like your videos & I try to pick out what I can from them to keep up with (trying to lose a bunch of weight & eat better), but once you get to the science terms & macros, density of this or that, none of it makes sense to me & I hate that I get lost but I want to be healthier. I still don’t know if I want to fully try keto but idk what I can even eat on keto. I’ve had a few friends do it but they’re no help beyond “meat & cheese, no fruits/sweets”. I use fruit & some veggies to replace habitual snacking like chips for grapes/cherry tomatoes for ex. I just need a starting point on what to eat.
I always drink about a gallon per day, even in cooler months. 2 gallons only if its super hot and I'm working outside all day, but Ill try to end the day with gatorade and a good meal if thats the case.
Hi Thomas, thank you for all the vids that you've done! I recently got through my first 3 weeks of 16/8 fasting and almost done with my first 20/4 day and gonna do keto as well! Thank you for all the hard work you put into this! Also, the 20/4 is the best feeling I've had since starting!
I remember seeing. A video of that salt company that sponsored ur video where they came in many flavours. Does anyone know what that company may be called? One pack of the salt contained like 2000mg sodium
I've lost 6 kilos with keto fasting in the last six weeks. I'm hoping to lose about 20 more by Christmas. What helps is I passively fast anyway since I rarely eat breakfast even before doing the fast. That and Keto diets as super high in protein, and Protein is the one meat that I reliably eat anyway. So I'm feeling pretty good about that. :) Problem is: I'm an office worker in the middle of winter, so I'm bone dry most of the day thanks to AC. Ttying to keep a balance between drinking enough to be healthy and too much to fight away that bone-dry feeling is pretty frustrating.
I've lost 20lbs doing the 14-20 hr fasts. I've been working out and yoga for over a year 3 hrs a day but couldn't loose the extra weight until I started fasting. Thank you for your help!! How much water should I be drinking during fast, I exercise the last 3 hrs.. and how much water daily?
listen to your thirst... if you're on keto and sweat a lot while working out consider putting some sea salt in with your water bottle. trust me, it helps so much. I used to get headaches on keto and this helped me so much
Urine should be a hay color. Drink more water if darker. Drink less if lighter as it will drain water soluble vitamins, minerals and nutrients prematurely. Also use Himalayan salt.
Thomas I have been on keto for maybe 3 months and I've lost 50 lbs. I am so skinny now that people around me are worried about my weight and I am exercising with plenty of rest and I am doing healthy keto. I am still losing weight but I'd like to gain muscle. Can you do more videos on this?
@@Blakebyrd003 my meals consist of high quality protein and lots of good vegetables. I eat maybe a handful of blueberries in the evening. I'm never really hungry and it feels like I'm eating twice as much.
Well, it's not really fasting if you drink water.. that's water dieting! 😉 True "fasting" means nada, nothing, nope, no water/food.

Thomas, what’s your take on Ashwaganda supplements?
Ashwaganda is the freaking best! That and shankhpushpi.
I sweat a lot, after a 3 mile run i can lose between 3 and 5lbs. I add Himalayan pink sea salt to my water through out day.
Yep. Himalayan with some decent spring water and you're set imo...then Drink when thirsty. Kiss approach.
Do you measure how much salt you use?
how much salt you use?

Shouldn't nutritional yeast be optimal in the last meal (before a longer fast)?
I’m dead laughing at the woman dancing with vegetables when he mentioned vegans and vegetarians having a hard time replenishing b12

Id love a video of what supplements to take during a fast and how much as well as just what supplements we should take overall

Well, it's not really fasting if you drink water.. that's water dieting! 😉 True "fasting" means nada, nothing, nope, no water/food. Many unique processes activated by hormones - usually overruled by insulin - start up and protect, cleanse, and provide energy and water from fat tissue. The process is utterly amazing. The "dry fasting" has many decades of research backing it up. We just don't know about it because it was mostly from the old Soviet Union. But it is safe. I personally have finished a couple of 7-day dry fast. The benefits are incredible! However, It is a serious endeavor not to be taken lightly. The initial one is always the hardest.
