hi guys in this video I want to talk

about in a minute fasting bigger meals

and bloating I had a question from

someone recently wanting to know how big

of a meal they should consume if they

consumed two meals or one meal because

when they eat they’re just completely

bloated and stuff so let’s just talk

about that when you go les meals do

intermittent fasting you want to start

increasing the amount of calories for

that meal so we don’t end up with a low

calorie diet to do that you have to have

bigger meals the problem is you only

have so much capacity to digest that

food especially if you’re not used to it

and your metabolism is slow so you end

up just stuffing yourself and being

bloated so we want to avoid that and

also some people when they’re starting

out they might have the fear of not

eating so frequently so they might start

eating so much food because they’re

freaking out like oh my gosh I’m not

gonna eat so I have to eat everything I

can squeeze in my stomach not a good

idea and that just adds stress to the

whole digestive system so we want to

have the optimum meal the perfect meal

where you’re full but you’re not stuffed

so there’s a couple points I want to

bring up number one you can go ahead and

separate out your vegetables with your

protein and fat so that way you don’t

have to eat the whole thing at once so

instead of sitting down to a 30-minute

meal and cramming as much food as you

can go ahead and spread it out for an

hour or even two hours of eating so

let’s say let’s say this is at 3 o’clock

and this is at 5 o’clock so you would

eat your all your vegetables first your

7 cups or your 10 cups of vegetables

right there big salad and I do this a

lot too but you’re not eating your

protein until you know an hour or even

two hours later so you’re giving your

chance for your system to digest it and

then eat again so that way we can extend

our fasting time to around 23 hours of

23.5 hours to 21 hours of fasting so

that’s still a good amount of time to

fix insulin resistance and really heal

if you’re doing kind of a one meal but

it’s stretched out over two hours and of

course when you do this when I do it

gradually and ease into it so you’re at

two meals for a while and then

eventually go to one if you want to do

that some people don’t want to do that

and that’s totally fine so that means

you would just do two meals but just

make sure those two meals

you don’t you’ve plied the same

principle you don’t stuff yourself too

much so let me just give you an example

let’s say you do two meals a day you eat

at one o’clock and five o’clock what you

could do is have your protein at 1:00

and then all your vegetables at 3:00 and

then your protein again at five o’clock

that way you spread it out so the point

I’m trying to make is that when you

combine so many different types of foods

together it’s more stress on the

digestive system it requires more

enzymes it’s harder to digest and

there’s more bloating of all so if you

were to separate that out and in

consumed your protein and fat let’s say

at one your vegetables at three then

your protein and fat at five you would

have an easier time to digest that the

other point you want to make is that

when you eat many people do not have the

stomach acid to digest that food so

normally in your stomach you have a pH

of between 1 & 3 that’s extremely acid

when you get older and you age you lose

that acid and then the symptom would be

GERD acid reflux indigestion bloating

gas that those are the symptoms for a

low stomach acid and that’s why we’re

recommending more apple cider vinegar

there is one thing that I use or you can

use digest Plus this has a concentrated

outside of vinegar and Matane how to

chloride if you want to take it a tablet

yeah sometimes on Thanksgiving I will

pull that out when everyone’s stuff give

them some of that so they can eat a

little bit longer because people like to

step themselves on Thanksgiving and the

next point I want to make is when you

consume certain vegetables you might not

be able to digest those vegetables and

you might bloat just from the vegetable

alone not necessarily all the food that

you’re eating so you you want to just

kind of isolate that like people have

problems with broccoli for example they

get bloating but maybe not kale but some

people have a problem with cabbage and

some people have a problem with kale so

you may have to isolate a certain

vegetable that’s bloating you and

replace it but that could be doing it

right there especially if you’re not

used to having those vegetables food

oh geez you might have an allergy to

cheese or lactose or casein that’s the

protein in the milk so you really want

to just kind of be aware of that and

change up your food to see if it’s a

food allergy but because you’re not

doing grains because you’re not doing

sugars because you’re not doing a lot of

the other processed foods there should

be less allergies and then we have the

last one which is too much fat this is a

common mistake that people make they

kind of overdo it on the fat because you

can have all these keto bums and these

snacks and this and that and they end up

just having a lot of gallbladder strain

so this is the the kind of the wild

variable that you have to keep adjusting

so if you go too much you’re gonna have

not just bloating in your right rib cage

but you’re gonna paint all the way up in

your right shoulder because of the

phrenic nerve and the gallbladder refers

up there causing headaches and all sorts

of things and if you don’t have enough

fat you’re gonna be hungry in between

the meals so we have to kind of juggle

that so I’ll put a little link down

below on to clarify this I did a whole

video just on this one point all right

so these are some things to consider

when you’re having less meals but you

want to maintain your calories alright
