let’s talk about what would happen if you stopped  eating fast food for one week now i want to go  

beyond just carbohydrates and sugar i’ve done so  many videos on that if you stop eating carbs and  

sugar we know all the benefits that are going  to occur i’ll put some links down below if you  

haven’t seen that video because i mean you’re  going to help prevent a fatty liver you’re going  

to lose a lot of weight you’re going to have  cognitive changes all sorts of wonderful things  

just for the fact that you cut down your carbs and  your sugars but what else is in fast food that if  

you eliminate it would benefit you well number  one when you eat processed foods refined foods  

you are eating foods very low in nutrients anytime  you eat empty calories or foods that are void in  

nutrition you end up depleting your reserves of  vitamins and minerals specifically b1 calcium  

zinc other b vitamins and that creates a whole  series of issues right there also when you consume  

empty calories or refined foods you don’t get  any phytonutrients so you have a situation where  

you have no antioxidants and a lot of oxidation  and you have a lot of damage in the body just  

from oxidation alone from free radical damage  because these phytonutrients protect i mean  

so many things your heart the inside layer  of your arteries the kidneys the eyes  

the brain the nerves so without those  phytonutrients or antioxidants you tend to get  

things like peripheral neuropathy where you get  tingling and burning in your toes you start to  

have vision problems kidney problems heart issues  and the list goes on and on but there’s something  

else i want to talk about there are a lot of food  additives in fast food preservatives colorings  

things that enhance the texture of the food the  thickness of certain sauces and things you have  

sweeteners you have artificial sweeteners but the  one that i want to focus on now is things that  

enhance the flavors okay and primarily i’m talking  about msg monosodium glutamate also known as  

modified food starch which is in so many foods  so why are they putting a flavor enhancer in  

food in the first place what are they trying to  cover up if you didn’t have msg in this fast food  

what would it really taste like you probably  would be shocked you probably wouldn’t eat it  

and as far as the topic of msg if you do research  on it you’re going to find very wide viewpoints  

some people say it’s good some people say it’s  bad and so you have this conflicting viewpoint  

you don’t know who to believe because you’ll see  research on both sides my whole thought on that is  

that unless you really have first-hand knowledge  and you experiment with it yourself or on  

close friends that you know and you can see the  results um you don’t really know for sure however  

that being said um just from being in practice  for 30 years i have found that whatever  

the general consensuses of the mainstream thought  i tend to look in the opposite direction and  

i don’t trust that viewpoint because there’s so  much vested interest involved and so i tend to go  

in the other direction but what i will tell you  about msg from personal observation i don’t get  

the reactions that the allergies the sensitivities  but what i get is incredible pleasure it tastes  

good initially but then about an hour and a  half later i am starving so i know for a fact  

through personal firsthand observation that it  increases hunger and it will cause me to keep  

eating especially when you go to a thai  restaurant or a chinese restaurant or just see  

like doritos for example which in college i lived  on doritos and a lot of other junk foods so i have  

a lot of experience in this area and i also know  it retains fluid because when i consume that food  

i’m so thirsty and then i end up finding that i  can’t even get my ring off or my ankles get puffy  

now currently i don’t do any msg i’m talking about  in my early 20s when i had a lot of experience in  

doing junk foods and so here’s my viewpoint  if you were to cut out fast food for one week  

you’re gonna notice your hunger goes away  you’ll be able to go from one meal to the  

next much easier especially if you’re doing keto  in intermittent fasting you’re going to notice  

your cravings are going to drop which then makes  it very easy to stick to a plan also your fluid  

retention will greatly improve you’ll get rid of  a lot of fluid you you’ll probably pee a lot more  

for about two weeks you’re going to find your mind  is clear your cognitive function is much better  

you’re going to feel like your body is overall  cleaner you’re not going to feel so groggy you’re  

not going to get the brain fog you’re going to  have definitely more energy and then you’ll start  

losing fat actual fat but that doesn’t happen  right away that’s a little bit delayed one or two  

weeks and so if you eat a lot of fast food and by  the way back then no one could have convinced me  

not to do fast foods i was highly addicted i had  to hit bottom before i changed but maybe you are  

different and a bit wiser so try to give up fast  food just for one week to prove it to yourself so  

you can have first-hand knowledge that it will  very much benefit you in many different levels  

hey before you go real quick i have a course  entitled how to bulletproof your immune system  

it’s a free course i want you to take it and  here’s why here’s you here is your environment  

everyone is focused on this over here  avoiding your environment but what about here
