now if you have the correct pattern of  intermittent fasting you can actually tap into  

your visceral fat that’s the fat around the organs  it’s the fat that spills off from your liver  

because when the liver gets fatty it starts  to dump fat around the organs and you develop  

belly fat now there was a study recently done on  mice that indicated that when you do intermittent  

fasting it actually can slow down your weight loss  and creates a resistance trying to lose weight  

so basically they indicated that intermittent  fasting slows your ability to lose belly fat okay  

now this was in the news it was put out there to  discourage people from doing intermittent fasting  

now this conflicts with other studies that  shows that doing intermittent fasting does work  

uh one i’ll put down below which shows that you  can reduce your visceral fat the stuff around  

your belly by four to seven percent by doing one  meal a day so when we have conflicting information  

you have two facts that oppose each other and  obviously one can’t be a fact based on evidence  

one has to be false right all right so when you  start digging into the first study i mentioned  

um they did what’s called every other day fasting  where you would fast one day go back to your  

regular eating plan the next day and then fast  the next day to me that really is going on and  

off keto okay and yes you are fasting every other  day but you’re omitting the keto diet you’re just  

eating your regular foods every other day so this  is a lot different than doing the recommended  

intermittent fasting that i talk about where  you’re fast for a period of hours then you  

go on keto and then you fast for a period  of hours and you keep going back and forth  

the key is staying on keto so there’s two types  of fasting that i think would really slow your  

weight loss down one is the every other day  fasting and the other is the five and two  

so five days let’s say monday through friday you  what you want and then for two days you’re fasting  

but you’re really not fasting you’re eating 500  calories who knows if it’s keto or not but the  

point is that you’re not actually combining keto  with fasting you’re combining your regular diet  

with fasting and what’s going to happen is  this the more you go on and off keto where  

you’re adding carbs and you’re taking them away  it’s going to cause the body to adapt and protect  

its fuel source which is stored as body fat  so it’s very similar to what happens when you  

go on and off a diet you start creating insulin  resistance and your metabolism starts slowing down  

more and more and more so if you really want to  correct your metabolism and really target visceral  

fat the absolute best way to do it is to do it  with the combination of intermittent fasting and  

keto at the same time if you’re new to my channel  i put a link down below of exactly how to do this
