How to Do a Bone Broth Fast: Benefits and Schedule- Thomas DeLauer

How to Do a Bone Broth Fast: Benefits and Schedule- Thomas DeLauer… Bone broth is a source of bioavailable nutrients in an easy-to-digest form. It helps heal and seal your gut, and enhances the absorption of nutrients - the gelatin found in bone broth is a hydrophilic colloid, meaning it attracts and holds liquids, including digestive juices, thereby supporting proper digestion (protects and seals the mucosal lining of the GI tract)

Contains glutamine that has protective effects on intestinal mucosa by decreasing bacteremia and epithelial cell apoptosis, enhancing gut barrier function, and influencing gut immune response - glutamine can fight against bad gut flora by protecting against mucosal breakdown in the gut as well

Also contains ACV, which has acetic acid, also widely known to increase nutrient absorption

Collagen from Bone Broth:
Collagen stimulates human cartilage-producing cells (chondrocytes), which has the potential to result in more cartilage tissue

Proline: Helps the body break down proteins and helps improve skin elasticity and smoothness - often recommended for its benefits to the heart, including keeping arteries from stiffening

As it helps break down proteins, soothes the guts lining and helps form connective tissue and therefore “seals and heals” the protective lining of the gastrointestinal tract - good for leaky gut because the villi in your intestinal wall are actually built of collagen

Also helps your artery walls release fat buildup in the bloodstream, shrinking the fat in the arteries and minimizing fat accumulation

Glycine: Necessary for DNA and RNA synthesis and digestive health - it is used for the production of glutathione, for blood sugar regulation and digestion

Arginine: Beneficial for lowering inflammation and improving the health of the blood vessels and cardiovascular system

Improves blood flow in people with clogged arteries as it improves nitric oxide production (widening of arteries and relaxation of muscle cells and blood vessels that allows for better circulation)

Glutamine: Glutamine has protective effects on intestinal mucosa by decreasing bacteremia and epithelial cell apoptosis, enhancing gut barrier function, and influencing gut immune response - glutamine can fight against bad gut flora by protecting against mucosal breakdown in the gut

Electrolytes:
Electrolytes are crucial in allowing a person's cells to generate energy, maintain the stability of cell walls, as well as to function overall

They generate electricity, contract muscles, move fluids and water within a person's body - the major role of electrolytes is to ensure that fluid levels inside and outside the cell are balanced

Our muscles and neurons are sometimes referred to as the "electric tissues" of the body. They are reliant on electrolyte movement between extracellular, interstitial and intracellular fluid (fluid inside, outside or between cells)

Sodium:
The major cation (positively charged ion) found outside the cell - it regulates the total amount of water in the body and plays a major role in neuronal and nerve signaling.

Potassium:
The major cation inside the cell - potassium is essential for the proper functioning of the heart, kidneys, muscles, nerves, and digestive system

Magnesium:
It helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps the heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong - also helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure

I'm currently getting the best of both fasts.. I water fasted for 54 hours and then decided I'd start drinking bone broth twice daily. So I got peek autophagy for several hours, then switched to gut healing. Currently at 67 hours and feeling fantastic!

This fast has been a lifesaver. I was waking up with stomach aches and my acne was getting worse. I did a two-day fast to kick off my new cleaner diet and my skin has improved.

I’m in. I just want you to know that to me. A 61 year old woman who has just gone through her second hip replacement. I have only followed you for about two months. I have lost 10 pounds. I am about 123 pounds. I am 5 3 inches. Flattest stomach ever. My skin is tightening. I am so looking forward to working out when I get the go ahead. I am walking now. Still using crutches. However I started today with arm weights. I live on bone broth fasting and 18 hour food program. I give myself 4 hour window of eating. People tell me a week after surgery I look 10 years younger not older. My mental attitude is fantastic. I program my mind every morning. Why? And I telling you this. Because I found you in you tube and you inspired me to change my whole life. I want to get into body building. My frame is light but dam it at 90 I still want to carry my own luggage go dancing and be if service. To thank you. I would give you a big hug if I could. You keep sharing and giving and creating. You are my hero.
Thank you. Charonne

Doing a 40 day bone broth fast. I'm almost halfway there.

Thank you for this info!

Down 21 lbs and shredded, keep dropping the dietary gems bro! Also, much appreciated your use of references to credible, unbiased studies...one of the main differences between your videos and others that soak the Internet! I'm using your methods for health and fitness success, and mental clarity. My wife's benefited GREATLY with blood sugar stability and leaning out. Now my mom who has had Parkinson's disease for 19 years is trying keto to attempt to help her memory and cognitive abilities...we'll see how that goes!
Much love and appreciation, can't thank you enough.

Informative, thank you. I just completed a 72 hour fast and decided to break it so had some bone broth. (I make it and can it myself from saved up bones) After a cup of it I felt great and decided to do a couple cups a day as my meals for awhile in an 18//6 hour window, just like IF. I'm 70, and am healing from fatty liver/metabolic disease, have lost about 25# in 2 months going keto/IF and feeling better.

I did a 24 hour beef bone broth fast recently. 3 cups of bone broth (breakfast, lunch and dinner) and water only. But, I think you have to go for 48-72 hours to really get the most benefit. I drink 8-12 oz. of bone broth almost daily. It helps me sleep better and I'm sure it helps my gut, joints, skin and hair, and overall health. Pasture raised beef bones + make it yourself in a crock pot. Don't buy in a store. Takes 48 hours to brew, but two batches of beef bones lasts 2 weeks. Costs about $15 for 5 lbs. of bones. So, an inexpensive daily beverage if you make it yourself. Cheaper than most coffees, sports drinks, or protein bars. And healthier. Not processed. No carbs.

Hello. You probably will never see this, but. Here goes. I have battled weight most of my adult life. I got the weight off 3 yrs ago with the help of a trainer... but i was so hungry all the time. At my goal weight i certified as a group fitness instructor and loved it. But through injury and illness and not knowing how to adjust my diet to immobility. ... i gained a lot of weight. My back hurt. My sides hurt. My sleeping was horrible. I was dizzy., short of breath and lacked balance. I am trying a "keto" regime. But in all honesty im lost. Its so much to learn... and endless bad or former habits to break. Thankfully im back at the gym... can't teach yet- so im just enjoying being part of the program. Wish we had someone like you in Ottawa .

My favorite treat that I made recently is bone broth 2 minutes in microwave, 1-2 Tablespoon Vital Farms Butter, and 1 teaspoon mct oil. I mix it with a submersion blender and it becomes very frothy. Basically bulletproof coffee but with bone broth instead of coffee. It is so Delicious!

My next 3 days off from work, I’m planning on giving this a go! That’ll be next Saturday, Sunday, Monday!

[jrgolf]

Thanks for all you do! I'm down for a full 72! I like to sinner my own broth naturally lol, no matter how much time this takes. 5 days on keto so far and now really enjoying the lifestyle. First 2 days were hell, but as an ex carb junkie, the cravings are subsiding and it's just fun to see how long i can go through my day energized.

[violettiplady]

love this. i did tried to do a 48 hour prolonged fast the other week, and managed about 30 something hours, my BS levels wentso low i couldnt even walk really, so i made myself a bone broth drink and BAM I was better instantly!
I am planning to try again for a 48 hours bone broth fast, so my BS doesnt get so bad.

[bageltv]

You can also fast exclusively on bone broth for longer periods. It's full of potassium, sodium and glycine. Not to mention the healing effects of the gelatin. I consider it a superfood. Has it all. Will keep you in ketosis as well.

[tristantaylor]

Thanks for sharing all your knowledge! I’ve been doing Keto now for 4 months and have lost 65.4 pounds thanks to your advice! I am in for the bone broth challenge! Thanks again and keep it up please!!
