so I wanted to do a quick video on

mineral fluctuations when you’re doing

fasting because it’s always a concern am

I going to deplete my mineral reserve

especially if you’re not taking

electrolytes or other minerals like

trace minerals so let’s go ahead and

cover it on an average fast let’s say 72

hours so if you look at sodium and we’re

talking about blood values okay goes

from 138 to 136 so a slight decrease

potassium 4.6 to port 4.3 a slight

decrease magnesium 1.7 to 1.6 a very

slight little dip there and we have

calcium 10.32 9.1 again just a small

amount phosphorus 3.6 the 3.0 zinc check

this out

104 it goes up to 117 this is

interesting

why woods ink go up when you’re doing a

fast okay well you’re not eating

anything supposedly but what happens is

your body releases from the reserve a

lot of zinc goes up by 3.5 times okay

and why would that be because your body

actually needs ink to make certain

enzymes as a part of the antioxidant

Network that’s involved with defending

the body against pathogens also in the

repair action so that’s why it goes up

and the other thing that’s very

interesting is that uric acid goes from

4.5 to 26 to 41 and then back down to

3.5 so we get this massive spike of uric

acid now why would that be well a lot of

people are associated uric acid with

gout and uric acid kidney stones so it’s

a real negative thing but in reality

uric acid is a very powerful antioxidant

and this is why it spikes because it’s

part of the body’s defense mechanism to

clear out stuff or kill certain things

but you’ll see that it actually comes

down it’s a temporary spike if someone

is prone to gout or kidney stones

there’s a

couple things that they can do consume

lemon juice in their water when they

drink it that would be beneficial also

potassium would be beneficial as an

electrolyte and if you have a bigger

problem another product that would

recommend is called hydroxy citric

that’s the most powerful remedy that I

know

to counteract kidney stones because it

actually dissolves the crystals in both

oxalate stones and uric acid stones okay
