Official Fast BREAKING Checklist - How to Break a Fast Safely

Official Fast BREAKING Checklist - How to Break a Fast Safely - Thomas DeLauer

Get your pen and paper ready (or take it down in your notes on your phone, lol) because it's checklist time!I'm going to give you a checklist that provides you with everything that you need in order to correctly break your fast. This is applicable to all types of diets, including a non-keto, keto, female-oriented, and a special cortisol-reducing protocol checklist! It's gonna be fun and hopefully it help making breaking a fast easier for EVERYONE! Let's dive in and I'll see you in the COMMENTS!!

Golden Rule: Do not pair Carbs & Fats

Non-Keto

- Lean protein/protein shake
- High GI carb
- Bone broth
- Fructose
- Omega-3s

Keto

- Lean protein/shake
- Bone broth
- Low-fat
- Omega-3s

Cortisol-Reducing Protocol

- Cinnamon - acts like insulin excess blood sugar gets into the cell, lowers cortisol
- Add salt to back off production of aldosterone
- Still break fast with lean protein (not as big of an insulin spike)
- Magnesium:
A 2012 report, published in the Journal of Neuropharmacology, found that magnesium deficiency caused an increase in the production of cortisol in the brains of the mice, specifically by activating the paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus, a part of the brain that controls responses to stress and anxiety

Concluded: Magnesium calms your nervous system and prevents excessive cortisol by restricting its release and acting as a filter to prevent it from entering the brain

Women Specifically:

- Lean Protein/Protein Shake - lowers blood sugar so cravings are less
- Seaweed (iodine)
- No Gluten (thyroid)
- Avoid dairy
- Bonus: Shellfish

I appreciate how you keep re-visiting these topics as you learn more. Please keep doing this as the science and studies mature.

Not gonna lie, this would be so much less confusing with pictures. Like, "Plate 1, Plate 2, Plate 3. These are okay to break your fast".

I love how his idea of fun is taking magnesium tablets. This guy is a different breed

Great video, Thomas. I like how you broke it down for every walk of life....Keto/non-keto/carbs etc.. You are raising the bar. #ForwardThinking

You’re content has helped me so much through my keto weight loss journey! I appreciate how you take every aspect of it and break it down so finely. So I’m not just learning what to do to when breaking a fast and how to keep my diet as affective as possible but I’m learning all about how everything breaks down in my body and what everything does. I’ve been doing keto for a little under five months and I’ve already lost 47 pounds! Haven’t felt this good since high school! Thank you Thomas! Keep the awesome videos coming!

I have learned a lot from you, Thomas. Thank you, sir! I never understood the science behind food until I stumbled across your videos. CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER!

[MissCaroline]

Thank you so much for posting your videos on how to break an extended fast. The other week, I went on an extended fast and broke it eating the wrong foods. And then I had stomach cramps and sharp pains in my abdomen for about 1.5 weeks. I just went on another 2 day fast and just had some rice cake, seaweed, and lean chicken...hoping and praying this will give me what I need and break my fast the right way. So far, feeling great!!!

[BaileyBaratheon]

This is probably the best fast breaking video on this channel. It covers keto, non keto, fructose when aiming for muscle building, cortisol control and advice for women. Adding this to my watch later as this is a holy grail video. Great work Thomas!

[irenetalley]
