Whilst you're fasting someone is losing money . . . . .

Everyone stay calm and just wait six months everything will change again and you won’t have to change anything

The reason fasting is dangerous is the food companies aren't making any money when you are fasting.

None of these experts referred to any medical studies for their recommendations. I’m accustomed to Dr Ken Berry’s and Dr Jason Fung’s always referring to studies to support ideas. I’m still wrestling with residual insulin resistance from decades of carb addiction. I’ll keep intermittent fasting.

Well, I am living proof that my weight was 290 lbs. Now I am down to 237. Fasting ,exercise, and eating smarter have changed my life.

Meat was good. Meat is bad. Eggs were good. Eggs are bad. Fasting good. Fasting bad. I've been doing all three since I saw a video you did on fasting years ago. I'm the healthiest I've ever been. Went from 230 to 200. Remember, there's no money for big pharma when people are healthy.

It is worthy. I am 73 years old and living proof of it. I have been fasting for the past 20 years without any negative side effects. I fast 16 hours on and 8 hours off. On Saturday and Sunday up to 20 hours. I do not take any medications of any kind, not even Tylenol. The last time I had a cold was in 2002. I exercise daily from 0500 to 0600 hrs, do not feel fatigue, tired; rather, full of energy ready to tackle the day by standing up to 8 hours dispensing medications to people my age and much younger. I practice good eating habits and take my supplements. There you have it. Not bad for an old fart

I changed my mind listening and watching these "experts". I watch and listen to myself.

@7:00 Rhonda made the claim we don't store amino acids. That's wrong because 70% of the amino acids we use come from recycling, so our whole body is in fact a protein store and is our main source of protein largely before the food we eat. Moreover when we eat a lot of proteins in a meal our digestion slows down so that amino acids get more slowly into the blood where they can still be present long after the meal. I don't really buy this story we would necessarily be in an extreme catabolic state and break down our muscle as soon as we skip breakfast. Honestly if we eat 100g of protein at lunch and 100g at dinner I can't believe we could lose a significant amount of muscle mass before noon.

Fasting is good for people I eat breakfast but finish eating by 4pm/ 5pm I’m only eating 2 meals a day and feel great at 61 my skin is glowing.

@smarro71 2 years ago

Thats like: coffee is good for you, coffee is bad for you... I just continue doing my 18/6 intermittent fasting because I lost 30 lbs and I feel great.

If the "experts" claim it is bad for you, what they mean is their is no profit in it and fasting is good for you. Follow the money on the study.

When the “experts” say you’re wrong, then you know you’re right. Keep cracking Thomas 💪🏼

Summarizing: Fasting can be beneficial IF the protein intake amount is correct. 1gram of protein per pound of body weight (or target body weight).

@juanfermin1841 2 years ago

I'm 60 years old, and people say that I look 47, I have been doing 16 hours fasting for 30 years, I eat chicken with lots of vegetables and some fruits and nuts and i cook with extra virgin olive oil, I feel great, never had any health problems and I will never stop fasting.
