Intermittent Fasting’s Darkest Secret

Intermittent fasting means that you don't eat for a period of time each day or week. With time-restricted intermittent eating, you don't eat any food while fasting and only consume drinks with very few calories, such as water or black, unsweetened coffee and tea. During the periods when you do eat, try to follow a healthy diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and lean protein.

I love intermittent fasting. It’s crazy the medical establishment won’t encourage fasting. I spent my life dieting and gaining it back. With fasting and intermittent fasting I’ve kept the 65 lbs off. It’s not a diet it’s a lifestyle

At 70, I'm finally down 40 pounds after six months of 19:5 intermittent fasting. After a lifetime of trying every diet known to man, it's the best thing I've ever done for myself!

Good morning! I am 63 and celebrating five years of eating healthy. I eliminated sugar and processed foods. I eat real food. I adopted time restricted eating schedule. I exercise everyday. I feel great! Thank you for your influence.

The power of IF to me is that it makes you understand that you can just not eat and remain functionable, and it changes your view of eating. You then start to play with it and start losing weight accordingly

I started intermittent fasting over a year ago (16:8), lost weight, felt great but slipped out of it. Got back into it, lost even more weight. I feel great - fitter, stronger, healthier. I'm the correct weight for my height and age. I never count calories. If I slip up and have cake for afternoon tea it doesn't matter. The only thing I can't eat is shop bought bread, it makes me ill.

The secret of making it work, to me, was allowing myself to be hungry. Hard at first but becomes way easier very quickly.

I did keto and fasting 5 years ago. Was 5'8, 226 lbs. Took a couple weeks but I started DROPPING weight. In about 6 months I went to 160lbs, 35 pant size to 30. The other benefits were amazing too, no brain fog, no dandruff and no acne. I also used to have a bit of anxiety and depression that apparently "runs in the family" but I have ZERO of that now🙂 I also workout now to build even more muscle. Best 5 years I've ever felt tbh

"Chronic diseases that are not infectious or genetic in origin, they're the result of insulin resistance." A simple but very powerful statement to focus the mind. Thank you for an excellent video.

Ketoacidosis is not the same thing as nutritional ketosis. I lost more than 167 pounds changing to a ketogenic lifestyle along with moderate exercise and implementing fasting from intermediate to prolonged. Let me put it this way, for morbidly obese people like me prolonged fasting is the key to NOT having to go under the knife to remove loose skin! I am truly amazed how my skin has tightened up the longer I induce autophagy.

When I was a teen in the 80s, we were taught high-carb, low-fat, and to eat frequently in small amounts to stave off hunger. It was horrible, and I developed an eating disorder. All of what you describe has helped me be healthy.

[fireblade-uk]

I do everything mentioned: intermittent fasting, keto, unprocessed foods, exercise. I feel great, focused and I'm lean 👍🏻

[chefineer]

As someone who has 'anger issues', I never felt so stable and under control than when I fasted. I allowed myself to eat only between 4pm and 7pm, as many calories I wanted, for six months, I lost weight and felt mentally alert.
Maybe there are personality types who shouldn't do it, but it worked for me

[travishartzler]

Breakfast around 11am, dinner around 5pm. No snacks. Easy lifestyle for me. Did it to lower my liver enzymes and it worked.

I started a ketogenic lifestyle at the start of 2022 at 112 kg. Down to 85 kg. Often also do IF. When I go on vacation I have no problem because I love the food on keto. I will have some red wine over weekends, but drink water in-between. I'm a 63-year old woman and I love being able to do yoga, go on long walks with my dog, etc. I "lost" many years of my life owing to obesity. Life is so good now and I'm so grateful to all of you who give us positive feedback to confirm that we're on the right path. I never eat processed food, especially bread!

[bizichyld]

I started fasting to experiment with the potential benefits and now I can’t stop. I don’t want to eat breakfast or lunch anymore. A 4 or 5 hour window is all I need, and it’s actually liberating. Not worrying what to pack for lunch or rushing to make something for breakfast before work. I spend my lunch hour at work relaxing and catching up on tasks I can’t get to otherwise. People tell you you’re crazy when you tell them all this, but maybe they’re the crazy ones.

My husband and I started cutting out ALOT of the processed foods and starchy food....we increased our protein intake. I started intermittent fasting and I've noticed a huge difference in the last two weeks. My food intake is less and I don't feel hangry like I used to. I'm also type 2 diabetic and I've noticed my blood sugars are much better, even had to cut my insulin down cause it was getting too low and I've also noticed my sugars don't have dramatic ups and downs. When I first mentioned IF to my doctor she wasn't very open to it but I'm glad I decided to keep going. 😊

Intermittent fasting has changed my life completely. I’m 62 and have been doing OMAD for 2 years now. From someone who took multiple medications for anxiety, restless leg syndrome, migraines, acid reflux, joint pain, allergies, high blood sugar, I no longer need any medications and do not have any of the conditions listed above. I also gave up sugar. Sugar is the true evil in the typical American diet these days. I have more energy and mental clarity. I didn’t realize that all of my problems could be resolved by giving up sugar and getting my insulin under control.

I reversed fatty liver and elevated ast's & alt's with intermittent fasting, and for the first time in years started losing weight gradually. I plan to keep it up.

[rebeccakalyani]

I do both fasting and keto. I love it! Sometimes I do 16/8. Other times 24 or 36 hours. I feel so good and have tons of energy!

[lesliedunn]

Until you explained it, I didn’t understand why I got ravenously hungry after following intermittent fasting for a few days. I truly appreciate
not only the explanation but also how to ease into intermittent fasting in a way that allows my brain to not send “hungry” messages. Excellent video!

I've been Intermittent Fasting for three years and during the first three months, I fasted for 14, 16 and then 18 hours per day. During the first ten months, I lost 103 pounds and kept it off. Once my weight was no longer an issue, I chose to research the health benefits and there are so many. I follow quite a strict ketogenic lifestyle and I consume a lot of healthy fat. I have to say that my energy levels in the gym are through the roof. I'm aged 55 - I know, it's hard to believe lol.
