today we’re going to talk about  those people who just cannot confront  

fasting now maybe you can do intermittent  fasting but when you talk about prolonged fasting  

they can’t do it so let’s talk about what you  can do to overcome that it is true that when  

you deprive food or you tell someone you’re going  to go to bed hungry it brings up a whole can of  

worms because just the fact of depriving  yourself of food is anti-survival it goes  

against your survival on a mental level now  physically when you do prolonged fasting  

if you can overcome some of the barriers you  will actually feel way better when you don’t eat  

versus when you eat but the barriers  you’re going to have to go up against are  

all the different smells that are going to occur  in your house when other people are cooking  

the visual foods that you’re going to see and  commercials and also in your house and also  

you’re going to go up against all the different  habits that you have now with eating snacking and  

you know preparing certain foods and social events  etc etc not to mention all the wonderful pleasure  

memories you have connected to foods so that’s  really what you’re up against and let me not  

forget the growling of your stomach which really  only happens a little bit in the beginning and  

then it goes away so those are a few barriers so  there’s three things you need to know number one  

when you do this correctly you will not have any  hunger your hunger goes away because you’re in  

ketosis which is going to make it a lot easier  so that’s number one number two there are many  

good reasons to do prolonged fasting  that go way beyond just weight loss  

number one your cognitive function your sense  of clarity your ability to be in the present  

your awareness goes up your perceptions go up with  your even your vision your sense of smell your  

sense of taste when you go back to eating improves  you have more attention so if you were add you’re  

going to be less ADD when you do this so it really  strengthens your cognitive function you may even  

find you’re a little bit smarter okay also your  mood your mood goes up you’re not as grouchy  

prolonged fasting can actually fix your  immune system so let’s say for example you  

had an allergy to something or you had some other  type of inflammatory condition like an autoimmune  

condition fasting can help correct that if you  have a body problem whether it’s diabetes or some  

other degenerative condition prolonged fasting  can help if you have cancer or pre-cancer cells  

fasting is essential for killing cancer cells  and number three which is the next point i want  

to bring up is all you really have to do is  get over the hump there’s a certain fear of  

the unknown that you have to just jump in use some  discipline and just get started and then what will  

happen is as you get more and more into ketosis  you start experiencing these great benefits  

it’s going to make it easier and easier and easier  so maybe you just plan out doing it for 48 hours  

and then find out that you can go longer and  longer and longer up to 72 hours so that’s  

what i would recommend and of course before you  even start prolonged fasting whether it’s 48 or  

72 hours or longer i recommend doing intermittent  fasting for a while just to get your body used to  

it make sure you’re also doing the electrolytes  trace minerals b vitamins and sea salt very  

very important just to make sure that you don’t  create any deficiencies that can create dizziness  

one person that i knew did prolong fasting and he  passed out because he didn’t have any electrolytes  

and he he basically got knocked out when his  head hit something so that that’s not good but  

the bottom line is you’ve been eating your whole  life and letting your body dictate things and run  

this show what you’re going to find when you  flip this and you start running your body and  

telling it when to eat and when not to eat you’re  going to find all sorts of magical things occur so  

i challenge you to try prolonged fasting and see  for yourself before you go if you have a question  

about a product or you’re new to keto and you want  to know how to begin keto or you’re on keto and  

you need a debug because it’s not going as smooth  i have a keto consultant standing by to help you  

this is just for the people in the US hopefully in  the future we’ll be able to answer everyone’s call  

but i put the number down below  so you can call and get some help
