    In my opinion, before a fast you need something high in nutrition and vitamins before the fast like liver and milk. But you need to drink water during the fast, also drinking water is a good way to decrease your hunger. Drinking water helps your body breaking down body fat into energy..

    15:40 when I was addicted to carbs and frequent eating, I'd pass out if I had my lunch delayed and some stress on top of that. My doc told me to always carry some sugar in my pocket, just in case. So basically he was pushing me even harder towards diabetes.

    @@uzairahmed558 Check out Eckberg's other videos on the topic, but essentially: -take it easy: start with two weeks where, in two or three separate days, you delay breakfast and anticipate dinner, for one or two hours. Then other two weeks, same days, increase the delay/anticipation. At a certain point you'll see that hunger does not increase linearly but will regress, after some time. This is the moment where you can fully skip breakfast or dinner, depending on your preference. 16:8 is thus achieved, you can then extend that regimen to other days of the week -to make things easier, eat satiating foods, i.e. low on carbs, not too sweet, not ultra processed. -keep yourself busy during the last hours of fasting. Work, workout, do laundry, whatever, just keep your mind so busy it can't think of food. -mindfulness meditation can also help to dominate cravings.

However after doing a few longer fasts and my longest "2-day-fast one-meal then 3-day-fast" I've found my body can just push through a 3 day prolonged fast with no food craving, just water a vitamin-pill and some salt, maybe a black coffee, with no other prior preparation.

I started IF with OMAD and then my first attempt going beyond 24 hours failed at 26 hours, but after that, when I internalized one of his favorite phrases, "It's just hunger," I easily sailed through a 3-day and then a 4-day fast (which I only broke because we were going out to dinner the next day and I didn't want to "kill myself" with a big meal after a 5-day fast). It's SO EASY. And, get this, I had the imaginary "disease" of "hypoglycemia" before I started. At 51 I'm finally FREE of being in BONDAGE to food. *Thank you, Dr. Sten!!!!

    IES diagnosis: YOU ARE HUNGRY!! My wife isn't into fasting, even though she needs to lose weight as much as I do, but that's another story. Because I can't get her to participate, I chose to do the cold turkey method and simply stopped eating worthless carbs. I started off with 16 hour fasting (no food after 8:00 pm and didn't eat anything until 12:00 pm the following day). It worked fairly well, but I wanted to turbo charge my results so I migrated to 20 to 22 hour fasting. I've got a long way to go, but the weight is really coming off. I was even been able to take 4-5 days off fasting (summer vacation to the beach), but didn't go wild with carbs even though they were everywhere. I was able to get right back into the fasting routine and have been able to drop another 5 pounds since then. Once you get into the routine, and remember to stay hydrated, your body rapidly adapts to burning fat and the nagging hunger pangs go away fairly quickly.

I walk 3 miles or more daily. My only regret is that I didn't know about this remarkable diet earlier in life . At one time in my poor eating past, I had weighed nearly 200 pounds @ 25% body fat.

    Over months you can gently go to 24 and 48 and 72 hour fasts like once every month in addition to intermittent fasting. The last can break stubborn insulin resistance and reduce visceral fat as long as no vigorous exercises are done during the fast. It does require blood glucose monitoring done often and proper medical and dietary advice before you undertake these. If you're fat adapted, prolonged fasting is pretty easy.

    Just wanted to say thank-you for all you do. I've been viewing your videos frequently over the last year, and they have been so helpful in getting back on the right track for a healthy lifestyle. I was very athletic for most of my life, but started to let myself go when work began taking up much of my time. Now, at 36 years old, I'm in better physical shape than when I was in college, and feel healthier than I ever have! And I must say, your ability to write backwards is truly impressive :-)

    I started listening to your IF videos in December of '22 after I found my A1C @ 7.9. As I learned and followed the recommendations my belt started becoming too large. That was @ 36". I kept listening and learning and making mistakesas my A1C dropped to 7.2. I had to then make a new hole in my belt then A1C of 7.0 then another hole to tighten the belt, then another hole and a Dr. Visit with an A1C of 6.0 w fasting glucose of only 39.😮 The call from my Doctor proclaiming a 25# weight loss and stop all Diabetes meds. Bought a new belt continuing to learn and OMAD. Then in 3 months, another visit, 148 weight, 5.0 A1C and a total weight loss of 60#. Now off BP and diabetic meds. Sporting that new belt in the last hole to the inside, 28" waist. I regularly follow OMAD or an 18/6 when a social function like Father's day necessitates such. Thank you, I keep watching as now lots is ingrained so I consider it practice. I did a couple of two day fast which really disturbed my adult daughter who works in Elderly care, cause @ 69 she thinks I am "one of them". When I shared my plan with her last month to do a 5 day fast she begged me to "don't do that Dad, Please?". I of course relented to her and promised not to go past 2 days. Being who I am I did the 2 day, then a 1 day followed by another 2 day. No breaks (of course) I finished that off feeling great, clear and "like a champion". Now I understand eating to live. This is going to be my lifestyle for as long as I Live. Thank you for throwing me the bouy!

    the mind is powerful. if someone is convinced they cannot go without food, they'll never accept IF. and since high carb eating gives short term satiety, a craving to eat is just 3 hours away. add in the emotional need to eat something sugary or bread or fried, it's gonna be hard to get a high carb eater to change.

    Cinnamon can be good for regulating blood sugar, but I think it needs to be Ceylon Cinnamon not Cassia Cinnamon. might be worth trying to get her to consume some as part of a drink or in some food then seeing how long she can go without food. Also dizzy and nauseous are probably signs of insulin resistance and it is mimicing hypoglycemia...use a blood A1c monitor to see if her sugars actually dip or if this is stable while the dizziness and nauseousness occur. Does she consume any fat like butter or cream to give her body something else to work with other than sugar?

    Last week I did a 36 hour fast for the first time. I actually found it to be much easier than I expected. It was interesting that at the end of the fast my blood glucose was slightly higher than at the 24 hour mark (105 vs 95.) People around me can't believe I could go that long. They said they'd "end up being taken to the hospital in an ambulance." They're probably correct - your body has to be trained for it.

    That's very natural, you first tap your glucose reserves, those last for one day or more, than there is a proteolysis phases, in which your body looks for older cells and "eats" them, converting them to glucose, the real ketosis only starts around the 3rd or 4th day, and that's when you have a lower glucose in your blood. The real benefits or fasting appear during the second week, the deep detoxification, and the deep cleaning of damaged cells.

    First of all, I wanna thank you Dr. Ekberg for your educational and very informative videos. It has been proven to me time and again that the best way to achieve something, or to deal with any issue is by learning more about it. Forgive me please for this very long comment, but I believe it's very important. So I really appreciate your patience. I have quite a journey with weight loss, and I had some really huge successes in the past, even though I'm not really sure it's a success if I gained the weight back! So I hope this time, it will be a real one. After watching your videos, and learning more about keto, and being already aware of the great benefits of IF, since it was the reason for my last huge success, I started again to do intermittent fasting, but also now I'm lowering my daily carbs intake as much as possible, I only have 2 meals a day, I don't snack, and if I wanna eat fruits, I eat the ones which are lowest in carbs and only a few, also it would be part of my meal, either the first or second. I also started to fast for more hours, mostly 22 hours and sometimes 23 hours a day. Also, after watching your video about walking and running, and which is better depending on the state of fitness (I really encourage everyone who's reading my comment to watch that video), I started to exercise the way you described it should be for an overweight person "actually obese according to my BMI". The results are amazing!!! Today marks a month since I started, I lost 22 pounds, from 235 pounds to 213. What makes things even better is that it was really easy and enjoyable! I don't feel tired at all, I don't crave food that is harmful. I stopped snacking, even though I don't need to go the store to get snacks, since they're already available in the kitchen closet. And I saved the best ones to last, I don't hate my life while exercising because You changed the wrong concept I had about exercise, and also, I feel full and really enjoy my meals! with having amazing results, it couldn't get better! I weigh myself 5-6 times a week, and I do that after I exercise, before I've eaten anything. I believe it's a great motivation, because 1st, I can track my progress, and 2nd, I feel I'm rewarded every time I step on the scale, and I find that I lost weight since the day before! Now to my question, which is a concern. in the last week, the weight loss has been much slower than before, and it happened twice, that I find I gained weight, not more than 1 pound. I understand that if I weigh more, my basal metabolic rate will be higher. What I'm concerned about is that maybe the very fast weight loss that my body has been through, activated a response, that "We're losing weight, we must resist". Keeping in mind that I don't expect myself to lose 22 pounds every month, and even losing half a pound is a victory for me and I feel that I'm on the right track! So, is it possible that my body is trying to counteract the fast weight loss? and in that case, what do You suggest I should do? Again, thank you so much for everything, I'm so glad that KZread algorithm suggested a video of yours.

    Hi Dr. Ekberg!!! I credit discovering your channel to the complete turnaround of my mindset when it comes to the concept of “true health” and ultimately helping me feel the best Ive ever felt. I’m wanting to try your electrolytes but was wondering if this product will break a fast? Is it possible to take electrolytes without breaking the autophagy state within a prolonged fast? I experience mild headaches during my 2 or 3 day fasts so I always take sea salt periodically but hesitate to take electrolytes because I don’t want to be kicked out of autophagy and lose all that hard work. Thank you!!!🙏

    I did 36/12 for a few years and it was really good. From 85 kg to 77kg, but the even nicer effect was, that you don't need to think for 1 whole day about food preparation and stuff. And on the day you eat, you can eat anything (at least in my case it worked). But in the end it was socially to exhausting, to switch around the days when you meet friends. 16/8 is easier to manage, but not as effective as 36/12.

    Could you please consider doing a video on the optimal diet for someone trying to balance health with the demands of a high calorie training regime of cardio and strength I.e. how would you have eaten, based on what you know now, when training for Decathlon?

    I dip in and out between Keto and low carb. I also do 16 - 8 intermittent fasting. Now I can go for half a day without getting dizzy, queasy and weak, which was a real problem ten years ago.

    Thank you for your videos, Dr. Sten. Do you have any guidance for people on medication who are diabetic and hypertensive? Are these people able to fast? If so, should they continue taking medications during the fasting period? How should medications be managed during the fast?

    I just received my order of euLyte today. I am going to work up to the concentration directions on the container. Right now I have added one scoop to my 30 ounce bottle of water and will sip it throughout the day. I will mix the proper ratio on my fasting days though. Thank you for making a product we can trust.

    I got mine 2 weeks ago and use 1 scoop in a 16oz bottle of water, just because I like the flavor of that dilution. I would think it's doesn't matter how much water you use, as long as you're getting the powder you need for the type of fasting time window you're experiencing.

    Thank you for this video today... I have been interested in fasting for health since I first read Arnold Ehret's book on fasting around 1973. My very first water-only fast was for 30 days... it was the best experience of my entire 77 year life... Fasting is a wonderful way to detox the body and to experience Spiritual insights.

    @@metrics360 I have found while doing any water-only fast, I have required much less sleep. It is important to rest while fasting and never do any kind of exercise routine.. Resting allows your body to detox. If you exercise, the body does not have the energy to detox and heal your body and that is why one does a fast.
