i would highly recommend that you do fasting before

during and after surgery and especially after

some trauma or injury why is that because fasting creates some interesting

effects to help speed up the healing number one

we have a spike in ketones ketones are anti-inflammatory

they decrease certain things that raise inflammation

now what do you have when you have surgery trauma injury you have

inflammation you have pain fasting is one of the most powerful

things to decrease the pain and what that’s going to do

decrease the need for medication the next thing

that’s going to happen when you fast is it’s going to stimulate

autophagy that’s a condition where you recycle

damaged proteins as in ligaments tendons muscles after the

surgery trauma or injury so autophagy is very very important

post surgery post trauma etc also fasting will increase human growth

hormone and this is everything about growing

muscle and growing proteins but not just muscle

your cartilage the collagen the inside of the colon the skin

so anything that’s protein can be improved by having a spike in human

growth hormone there’s two surgeries that i had done

one is to my left shoulder and the other one is

to my left elbow my elbow was shattered in about 30

pieces so they had to do surgery problem was at

that point in my life i really didn’t know much about fasting so i go

in the surgery okay i had the fast before i went in

surgery so i wasn’t adapted to ketosis i was

literally starving to do the surgery and my blood sugars

just crashed why because i didn’t adapt to

ketosis i didn’t adapt to fat burning that well actually

i didn’t adapt at all i had serious blood sugar issues

and then what they do is they bring you this little jello or crackers

there’s no protein and i remember asking them

i can’t eat this you need to give me some protein well we don’t have any

protein i’m like nothing to go nope that’s all we have

and so i i consumed it and then my blood sugars

really crashed down so i felt miserable now think about this

carbohydrates glucose are glucotoxic they create more

inflammation they create blood sugar issues so

if you’re going to get surgery and you have the ability

to prepare for the surgery and i’m talking about

start intermittent fasting i would highly recommend

you do that two weeks before the surgery that way

you’re fully adapted to fat burning and you can go into this

so smoothly without any problems with your blood sugars

and then i would recommend you do longer fasting right

after the surgery so you do intermittent fasting like two meals a day

before the surgery and then after you fast for at least 48 hours

i definitely do not agree with those that are recommending

carbo-loading after the operation because we’re going to create more

inflammation it’s much better if you do fasting because you get a lot of other

benefits now i’m not going to recommend just

drinking water when you’re fasting i would recommend taking sea salt

probably a level teaspoon you can break it up and spread it through the day and

mix it in your water electrolytes i think it’s going to be

very important potassium magnesium things like that and then b vitamins

okay for nutritional yeast that way if you had some deficiency going into a

fast it’s not going to aggravate things one

more thing that might be helpful is to also take amino acids in a certain

blend that can help you in the recovery

there’s a certain blend that i recommend i’m going to put a link down below

that won’t turn into sugar or it won’t create a lot of waste it has a rate of

replacing proteins and repairing things at 99

now if we compare that to eggs eggs would be like 48

the rest is either turning into glucose or

waste steak and fish i think it’s like 38

and the worst protein to take is whey protein because the great majority of

that either turns into glucose or waste

and the last thing i would recommend is to take vitamin d

and at least 20,000 i use because vitamin d is a very powerful

anti-inflammatory so if we’re going to combine

fasting with vitamin d we can actually really drop that inflammation

learn from my mistakes don’t do what i did fast before you go into surgery

and then after and you’re going to be fine thanks for watching
