all right so I had a question what is

water fasting okay water fasting is very

simply fasting not eating and only

drinking water no coffee no tea no

vitamins no minerals no gum no salt

nothing except water okay now do I

recommend this no I recommend taking

vitamins and minerals and sea salt and

you can do some coffee and tea simply

because you may not have the reserve of

nutrients in your body to draw from and

when you’re fasting you’re not eating

and you’re not getting nutrients you can

have an electrolyte balance you can

create an issue at the heart so unless

you know what you’re doing and your

nutrition has been excellent for yours I

recommend taking vitamins and minerals

but this video I’m just answering a

question what is water fasting okay

now the type of water that you drink is

also very important I highly recommend

you don’t do tap water okay so does the

chlorine that is a fluoride that has

drugs in there chemicals pesticides and

all sorts of other discussing things

either get a really good filter to pull

out the chemicals including the fluoride

or drink spring water that is bottled

now should you drink distilled not if

you’re not taking minerals because

distilled water can deplete some of your

minerals and if you’re new at this and

you go into this already deficient in

minerals and then you do distilled water

without minerals that can create a

severe deficiency now whether you do a

stripped water fast or the type of

fasting that I recommend with the

nutrients after three days you will not

have any hunger you will have a ton of

energy you’re gonna have a lot of other

benefits but you’re gonna be very

surprised like I’m not even hungry yet

I’m not eating that’s because your body

is running off your fat fuel it’s a very

interesting but weird thing because you

would think you’d be exhausted and

you’re starving but now you’ll have no

hunger which makes it very easy to do

but that being said I do recommend going

into fasting starting with in a minute

fasting and then slowly graduating so

your body can adapt to less frequent

meals

to the point where you can do periodic

prolonged fasting for two days three

days and even longer because the

benefits are over-the-top massive let’s

go through the benefits one is you get

to express a gene called BDNF this is a

protein that gets activated and it

stands for brain derived neurotrophic

factor this protein which is also

stimulate by exercise causes your body

to produce more brain cells I mean if

you have memory problems cognitive

issues I mean wouldn’t you want more

brain cells I mean this is amazing

especially if your focus isn’t that

great your concentration sucks or you

you’re starting to go in the room and

like what am i where did I go in there

for where my keys you want to increase

this right here number two antioxidant

pool you start to make more antioxidants

to start in the repair process because

your body makes antioxidants but it’s

stimulated in a big way when you do

fasting next one you actually make more

monic Andreea these are the energy

factories that give you energy this is

why you get more energy when you do

fasting maybe not initially but after

you adapt your energy will just start

going up next thing is a toff adji etapa

g is a condition whereby your body is

recycling old damaged proteins and

cleaning up the microbes that it should

not be there so when you do fasting it

kicks on certain genes that then trigger

this chain reaction of taking all this

old damaged protein putting it into a

recycling mechanism with all these

enzymes and pushing out new proteins and

also using some of this for energy so

this is a real important recycling

mechanism to help in the repair cycle so

fasting is really important in repairing

tissue increasing longevity and fixing

old damaged proteins this is why your

skin looks better you look younger next

one you decrease insulin now of course

if your deke

using insulin you you’re not bringing

insulin down to such a level that is

dangerous you’re just normalizing the

excess okay because you’re also fixing

insulin resistance which creates more

insulin so if you have pre-existing

blood sugar problems or you’re diabetic

this is going to be very very very vital

but when you decrease insulin you

improve so many body problems it’s not

funny because this is connected to fatty

liver it’s connected to diabetes

metabolic syndrome high blood pressure

and the list goes on and on you also

recycle nutrients so the amount or

quantity of nutrients you need are much

less next thing is you increase the

resistance to stress this is one of the

reasons why they’re also recommending

fasting to people on chemotherapy

because the fasting strengthens the cell

to external stresses your cells become

tough next thing decreases your risk of

getting tumors and polyps and even

cancer next thing is decreasing

inflammation inappropriate inflammation

autoimmune conditions allergies

arthritis big-time and lastly it will

cost your body to run on ketones okay

about 40 percent of you will be ketones

the rest will be mostly fatty acids and

then a little bit of glucose but that

can be made by your own body okay your

body can make it out of protein and fat

you don’t need to consume any glucose

ketones are interesting because let’s

say for example you’re a diabetic and

your heart is damaged and you have heart

tissue that doesn’t easily accept the

fuel glucose okay well ketones can

bypass that whole thing and feed the

heart tissue directly and your heart

thrives on ketones

same thing with the brain let’s say you

have Alzheimer’s Parkinson’s or insulin

resistance and the cells in the brain

cannot readily absorb glucose well guess

what

ketones bypass that whole thing

get right in there and feed the brain

directly so it gets fuel immediately so

it can feed damaged tissues ketones are

the preferred fuel of the brain your

brain loves ketones okay if given the

choice between glucose and ketones it’ll

take ketones ketones are a much cleaner

fuel without the excess waste that

glucose bring alright guys that’s my
