hey guys I want to tell you what

happened when I increase my fasting to

21 hours it’s quite interesting I did an

experiment on myself

now normally I eat around twelve or

maybe one and six and seven so I get

about 18 hours of fasting with a six

hour eating window and normally I do

videos like the one I’m doing now

between 12 o’clock and 2 or 3 so the

experiment that I did in myself is

simply eat when I got back from filming

so my first meal was at 3 and the second

meal was at 6 so that’s just a three

hour eating window that gives me 21

hours of fasting compared to 18 it

doesn’t seem like much but it made a

significant difference in my cognitive

function I noticed when I was on this

pattern there is definitely more editing

more mistakes

so in this pattern right here fasting

for 21 hours rarely did I make any

mistakes it was quite remarkable so

there are improvements in memory for

sure more focused better learning I can

in the mornings I’m always studying

something I can digest and assimilate

things much better I can locate things I

remember where I put things a more

creative way better mood lets

grouchiness and less irritable this not

that I’m ever grouchy or irritable ok 7

increase productivity I mentioned that

already I’m just getting a lot more done

more organized because of the focus and

more decisive so I really don’t need any

study to convince me all I needed to do

was do my own experiment and see for

myself but if you actually look at the

research this is what happens you

actually increase something called BDNF

stands for a brain derived neurotrophic

factor this is a protein that actually

helps you grow your neurons and synapses

it’s like miracle-gro for your brain it

just helps regrow brain cells it also

slows aging also when you’re doing

fasting you’re increasing your ketones

which naturally support

the brain your brain prefers ketones

over glucose also your increasing etapa

G tatha G cleans out all the damaged

protein out of the brain like the

amyloid plaque and fasting improves the

little connections the synapses between

the neurons now the other thing you have

to realize is that when someone gets

Alzheimer’s it doesn’t just happen

overnight it’s been brewing in the oven

for quite some years sometimes 20

sometimes 30 years before you end up

getting this condition but it always

starts with a loss of cognitive function

so the big problem with Alzheimer’s is

that it’s silent you don’t know you have

it until later in life so I want to

challenge you with an experiment on

yourself now you may already be at this

pattern or even doing Oh mad or even

longer right now but if you’re at 18

hours or less I challenge you to try

this pattern right here so have the

first meal at 3 o’clock and the second

meal at 6 o’clock

give yourself 21 hours and try this for

3 days evaluate your cognitive function

and post the comments below and lastly

check out this other video I have on the

screen relating to the different

patterns of intermittent fasting for

different conditions you’ll really enjoy
