so I’m gonna answer another question

today relating to feeling weak and faint

when they’re fasting at 20:00 hours so

they can’t seem to get past that 20 hour

mark now for you it could be 24 hours it

could be a little longer it could be a

little bit shorter so let’s discuss how

do you advance to the next level without

feeling weak or faint so realize this

we’re going from glucose metabolism to

running on ketones and fatty acids okay

that process does take some time it’s

going to take a lot longer if you have

pre-existing diabetes if you have

insulin and resistance really bad it

could take months and months and months

so let’s say for example you’re at two

meals okay your first meal is at two

o’clock in the afternoon your second

meal is at six and then you fast for 20

hours if you’re having a hard time doing

this okay and you’re feeling weak and

faint you need to back it up to this

right here you need to kind of cut it

back to an easier level because you

haven’t given enough time for your body

to adapt now I’m going to show you a

couple things to speed it up but if

you’re feeling weak or faint you’re

going too fast and we need to cut things

back to get your body to get used to it

a little bit longer so you want to let

how you feel dictate when you should go

from this level to this level to this

level this is basically three meals a

day seven am twelve and six and then

you’re going to skip your breakfast and

go to lunch 12 noon and 6:00 p.m. and

eventually you’re going to start pushing

that lunch and dinner together closer

and closer and closer so even if you’re

having a hard time with eighteen hours

okay well then back it up out of

breakfast in there just avoid snacks

okay by adding more fat until you can do

this comfortably until your cravings go

away but also you want to feel energetic

you want to have good cognitive function

you don’t want to feel frayed and by the

way fainting and feeling weak could be

low sodium all right so you want to make

sure you’re doing your sea salt how much

at least one

teaspoon one level teaspoon many people

need like one and a half teaspoons

especially if they’re exercising but at

least one teaspoon that could be the

reason why you’re feeling weak and faint

and you can’t seem too fast longer the

other thing is the B vitamins okay

especially about em b1 and also the

electrolytes potassium magnesium now

both of these categories of nutrients

are involved in your metabolism your

biochemistry and they’re very necessary

in helping you make energy so if you’re

not doing these that could be the reason

why you’re feeling weak and faint and

also you can add some MCT oil this just

basically gives you more ketones to run

on and it could be because you have some

pretty bad insulin resistance you’re not

able to fully get into ketosis 100% yet

so you can add this to speed things up

some other people are using my fasting

tea that seems to help because it has

certain federal nutrients to help their

blood Sugar’s but the main point to

understand is that if you’re having

symptoms for this just cut it back give

it more time until you graduate to the

next level and then do this more

gradually so you go from 18 hours to 19

then to 20 and then get used to that and

then slowly keep pushing it forward

alright so that’s your summing up and
