WHAT HAPPENS WHEN FASTING?

Fasting can make you feel better but it’s not addressing the underlying root cause of the problem, that being a toxic bile profile. Fasting turns off bile flow. No toxic bile getting in your blood via broken biliary ducts or poor liver reputable from the portal vein means no…

INTERMITTENT FASTING IS LIKE CYCLING LONGER DRY PERIODS FOR CERTAIN PLANTS, BECAUSE PLANT ROOTS MAY BECOME WATERLOGGED OR MOLDY IF THEY STAY WET ALL OF THE TIME

All of that is great but the best part about intermittent fasting IMO is eating becomes spiritual. I’m
Not exaggerating. You can have meals like a drug experience the flavours are like ahhhh and ohhhh. It’s the logos amplified. Plants need a wet dry cycle. This is the same for us

Today I’m going to show you the basics of how to do intermittent fasting. This is for both beginners and those who are advanced but are experiencing problems like keto plateau.

With fasting, you’re trying to go from sugar-burning to fat-burning.

What is Healthy Keto?:
Healthy Keto is not just a low-carb diet. With Healthy Keto, you want to eat quality low-carb foods that are higher in nutrients.

The best indicators to know fasting is working:
• Your appetite is gone
• You can fast comfortably

How to start intermittent fasting:
1. Push your breakfast further and further towards lunch (you can have bulletproof coffee or MCT oil)
2. Eat at noon and add fat to the end of your meal
3. Eat at six and add fat to the end of your meal

A six-hour eating window with an 18-hour fasting cycle is great and can provide a lot of benefits, such as:
• Supporting cognitive function, focus, memory, creativity, and mood
• Supporting the immune system
• Decreasing inflammation

How to get rid of snacking:
• Don’t buy snacks
• Stay busy
• Have a large dinner with plenty of fat
• Have apple cider vinegar in your water
• Have lemon juice in your water
• Consume a large amount of vegetables during meals

Things that will help you fast longer:
• Green tea
• Cinnamon
• Garcinia
• Ginseng
• Ginger

What to do if you experience symptoms like keto flu or keto fatigue:
• Take B vitamins
• Take sea salt
• Take electrolytes and trace minerals

Fasting mistakes:
• Consuming a small snack
• Consuming a small amount of carbs
• Thinking the results will happen quickly (give it time!)
• Consuming everything in moderation

DR TESS LAWRIE ON INTERMITTENT FASTING

How do I stay healthy? One thing I have been doing for around 6 years now is intermittent fasting. This means eating between a reduced window of time each day, e.g 1pm and 8pm.

I break my fast between 1pm and 3pm with fruit salad/nuts or seeds. It's never boring as there are… pic.twitter.com/7J1FGc6YgK

WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF ENTIRE WORLD HAD FOLLOWED DR MALIK’S ADVICE, INSTEAD OF MANDATING 7 BILLION EXPERIMENTAL JABS WITH ZERO INFORMED CONSENT?

Worth reading the comments in the original tweet.

People have had enough.

Absolute joke that this is still being pushed despite the wave of vaccine injuries and warning signs.

How about advising people to lose weight, start Intermittent fasting, daily exercise and Vit D3 ? https://t.co/wU2WLEnuB0
