so I had this question come up that I wanted to answer will eating too little

damage my metabolism so let’s say you’re doing fasting or then when you eat

you’re having a certain amount of calories and it’s maybe you feel that

it’s not enough is that going to slow your metabolism down and this person

also mentioned that they were told that small frequent meals will stoke the

metabolism you know it’ll keep the flame going you need to eat every three hours

okay which is completely not true at all if you’re doing a low calorie diet it

really depends on what’s happening with insulin because what’s behind a slow

metabolism or a stuck setpoint where you can lose weight but you can’t seem to

get below a certain point as higher levels of insulin specifically what’s

creating at is insulin resistance and that’s created by years of consuming a

lot of refined carbohydrates or just eating too frequently if you have

insulin resistance you have higher amounts of insulin okay in the

background the doctor never checks it they’re looking at the blood sugar so

it’s not going to show up necessarily right off the bat but the high insulin

is the hormone that prevents your weight loss so if we want to fix the metabolism

we need to fix this right here we need to fix this right here and guess what

fasting corrects insulin resistance now does a low calorie diet correct insulin

resistance it depends what you eat are you doing carbs yes or no if you’re

doing yes then this low calorie diet is going to not correct this it’s going to

not fix your metabolism and then the other point too is your nutrients like

even when you’re doing fasting when you eat a meal if it’s nutrient dense then

you will not destroy the metabolism your metabolism is also about how many

nutrients you’re getting are you doing a high nutrient dense meal or is it just

something called dirty keto where you’re not really paying attention to nutrients

because sooner or later certain parts of your body are going to be deficient in

these nutrients and that’s what’s going to slow the metabolism down it’s going

to slow the thigh right down now you could do

low calorie diet with supplying all the nutrients and not effective metabolism

but typically the way that a person destroys our metabolism is they just do

a series of diets usually low calorie or low fat whatever that are very high in

carb and low in nutrients if you do that repetitively you end up with a very slow

metabolism they might do low fat popcorn or fruit or low fat snacks and end up

with this right here and a really slow metabolic rate if you have a slow

metabolism this is what you need to know right here the way that you lower your

metabolism to correct this is number one fasting and number two keep your carbs

low and number three keep your nutrients high
