1) Not eating enough healthy foods 2) Adding creamers 3) Consuming branch chain amino acids 4) Not drinking enough water 5) Not taking your minerals

16hr fast for 5 months has been the best thing I've done for my life. I lost a total of 60lbs and I feel great, this really works. 308lbs down to 245lbs.

No joke. I was literally mixing BCAA’s when I started this video and right as he said “Branched Chained Amino Acids” I was swallowing BCAA’s while fasting lol. Thanks!

I’ve been intermittent fasting for two months. 18/6 & once a week 24hour fasting. I feel a lot better. I workout in the morning & early evening.

Hey man, I come from a biochemistry and cellular biology background and I got to say you know your stuff. I learned all these in my 400 level classes and scientifically and practically it makes sense. Thanks for including a detailed explanation using science as your medium - really changing the game instead of all those diet scams out there. Beautiful work!

when ive been fasting, i dont refeed with my fave foods because when i start eating again, e v e r y t h i n g tastes amazingly good.

Intermittent fasting changing lives!! Been doing it over 6 years now

I work an office job and often have to lick envelopes to be mailed. Does this break my fast??

Can you tell me more about the Minerals that one needs when fasting?

Thanks to this guy... I had to buy all new clothes. 🤣

1. What can I use as a replacement for creamer? 2. Do you recommend sugar free energy drinks if I’m fasting? 3. How much water am I supposed to consume while fasting?

Personal Summary (in order of importance): 1) Drink enough Water. (purifies and gives a full feeling) 2) Fasting is simply NOT eating ANYTHING. 3) Take some Multi-Vitamins/Minerals. Worst case, expensive urine. 4) When eating, start with the Healthy Foods first. (Like most people I don't take any BCAA).

I just have to say thank you so much. I have been trying to lose the last few kgs from back when I was quite overweight (20kgs) to be exact. I am 157cm tall and was 75kgs (at the time was meant to be between 55-58kgs). I did Intermittent fasting for most of last year, and then lifestyle change and such had me going back to a 3 meal a day, carb focused diet. Although I ate very healthily, and I stayed the same weight for months (something I had never been able to accomplish before, I used to yoyo a LOT) I wanted to get back to fasting as I felt really good doing so and saw good results. I am now doing so again and I wanted to do so correctly, and I had NO IDEA that I shouldn't be drinking coffee (I love milky coffee :/ ). I understand water intake is a big thing, but no one had explained how essential minerals were. Your explanation was so simple, neutral and not trying to push any kind of narrative other than to educate, and I really, really appreciate it. Thank you so much for the effort and time you put into doing these videos! I wish I had come across your channel sooner.

Thank you for the well done and informative video. I appreciate how you include your clinical studies and reference them.

Sure glad I found this vid. Thanks for making these. Starting fasting tomorrow,was looking for proper info “et voila”

Vid request: workouts (full body, outdoors, et al). Keep 'em coming chief!

Just watched your Aldi vid and thank you so much for the info on what to look for on the labels you've made what seemed almost impossible look actually interesting and enjoyable . Going to do this on my next shop . Thank you so much 😁

Thanks this was great. Some of your other videos are just too long but this was good.

"I'm going to get right to the point" thank you! subscribed and watch the entire video👍

When I was 18 years old, I became severely depressed. I was 265 lbs. at only 5'11 and my health was suffering. My natural reaction to my situation was to stop eating entirely. Not sure why, but that's just what felt right. This was the beginning of my 3 month "near-fast" that allowed me to loss 90 of excess body fat and allowed me to live a much more active and rewarding life-style. I drank vitamin infused water whenever my hunger pains came in (these pains became duller and less uncomfortable as my fast continued). I would eat a modest meal every few weeks. Once I just ate a banana, a few times I had a fist sized amount of brown rice with raw carrots and lettuce, once I had a cookie. Though the cookie was good, I wasn't as good as I had remembered them being. I decided to end the fast after reaching a weigh I was comfortable with, 175 lbs. I don't regret a second. I was physically more active during and after my fast than I ever was before. Almost 5 years later, I have gained some weight back after stress eating in college, 195 lbs. But I am currently fasting once again. Already down 5 pounds after a week and hoping for similar results from before. It was much easier this time because I had done it before.

Love how your videos are always so informative. Can you do a video on people who work on 24 hr work shifts?

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Im a beginner and doing intermittent fasting. This video is very helpful to me. I’m so happy that I subscribed your channel. God bless you. ❤️♥️❤️

This was one of the first videos that really opened my eyes about fasting, and caused me to simplify my approach. I was good to revisit it as I start a new round of extended fasts.

Thank you, Thomas. I don't do junk food anymore- I don't even crave it anymore. I've lost 10 llbs in less than two weeks with your guidance. Thank God I love plain tea and black coffee. I have 3 llbs to go- goal weight is 125 llbs. Thank you for making videos for women over 40 (48). And... explaining hormones better than doctors.

Great video!! This tips will be most helpful....You look amazing..Keep up the good work..😊

Very helpful ...and I was definitely making some of the mistakes mentioned.

I was waiting for this one, great video!

Thomas, Nice video. But I think you mean that the stomach has "distensibility," not "dispensability." "Distensible" is the property of being capable of being distended, or stretched. I'm a sports medicine physician, so I'm pretty sure this is the case. ;-)

So clear and understandable. Im new to keto and started with intermittant fasting right away. Great info to implement.

I appreciate all your videos as Extremely Informational, Helpful Thank You

BRO!!! I'M A BIO MAJOR THANK YOU FOR THE SCIENCE BIT IT'S MAKES SO MUCH MORE SENSE NOW.

For people that are confused about what you can and can't have when you fast let me break it down to you. You can have: Water, plain old water. That's it. No coffee, no flavored water, no artificial sweeter drinks/water mixes. Nothing but plain old fashion water, like the stuff that comes out of your sink. Although I recommend getting it out of a filtered fridge so it tastes better. If you follow the simple rule of ONLY having plane Jane water, then you will not risk breaking your fast, and you will lose weight quickly. I do the 1 hour OMAD diet and it has worked for me.

Great video.. I’m on my 2nd day of fasting can’t wait to see results thanks for all the tips👍🏻👍🏻

First time I ever watch or hear about this guy, not even half way through video and I'm subbed already. Great stuff

Hi Thomas! Love everything you share and share everything to my friends, including your channel. Curious on your thoughts of taking MCT oil, black coffee, or eating coconut oil when fasting to "ride the wave" of increasing growth hormone or rebuilding cells.

I have learned so much from your videos, I started intermittent fasting and lost 5 pounds in a week, I still have so much to learn but it is working for me, excellent and valuable content, thank you so much!

You're Amazing! Love your fast and clear way of explaining! 😊🍀❤

I watch your videos all the time keep it up they are much appreciated and they helped me a lot. I am 41 and your videos make keto and fasting so simple I am a man who likes to know the science behind things and I don't have the time to do the research with six kids lol! So thank you very much and keep it up

The Intermittent Fasting actually works. I was a personal trainer for close to 30 years but at the age of 54 I ballooned to 240 pounds. The heaviest I've ever been. I've been doing the Intermittent Fasting and am shedding weight dramatically! about 6 or so pounds per week and I've only been doing it for a couple weeks. Right now I'm 226 and can't wait to get to my desired weight of 195. Hell, I might even shoot for 190. Thanks for the info. I am seriously considering buying your program.

Anyone else here during COV-19 / 2020? Trying to burn fat while sitting in the house 24/7 Playing video games.

I find all you videos super helpful and the way you explain the science in a way that is easy to understand is awesome. I have been having great results thanks to the help of your videos. Thanks heaps :)

Thank you! My kick in the butt to drink more water while fasting!

amazing! Please do a day of eating video. would love to see what you eat

Thomas DeLauer - Great video once again. Many years ago at Unipro, we were the first to introduce BCAA's to the US market. The raw material came from Finn Sugar, an extract from sugar beets. Back then it was common knowledge that lucine, isoleucine and valine-like glycine-are readily gluconeogenic.

Currently doing omad. Really liking it, especially how I feel when working out a couple hours after a meal!

Informative. This answers the previous questions I had about fasting

Legitimate question: when doing longer fasts (e.g., 5-7 days), should depletion essential amino acids be a concern? How does this scale with exercise? (I recognize the variability of this question, but I am probing for generalities)

Come out to Colorado and fast the elevation will shred u down all I do is landscaping and I get multiple people ask me what gym I go to.i don't work out but I eat 1 healthy meal a day at least 16 hrs from my last. I have never been this fit in my life 1 quality meal a day with good exercise will change ur life

Thank you. I needed this valuable information

Amazing information! Thank you!

*Thanks for the advice* ✅🙂

Overeating after the fasting is real. There might be subconscious or per-programmed mechanism to it. I use liquid shakes and powder drinks for that. They satiate, but the solid volume in the gut is low, so that it does not have to work as hard. It's a neat trick in addition to the well measured portions.

Your videos are amazing! Knowledge that you share helps me a lot! Thank you very much :)

Thanks for the informational video! You've got a new subscriber! I have never fasted, but want to in the near future! How many days would be a good start? Thanks again!

The moment that he said "apoptosis" is the moment I wanted to subscribe. Quality content!

You’re one of the only health people I watch on KZfaq. These other bros don’t know what they’re are talking about, thank you for being educated and bringing in facts every video. Subscribed

Very informative! I’m loving your stuff. New subscriber 😊

Really good video mate - thanks for sharing

Hi Thomas, I've been intermittent fasting for 4 weeks today actually!! started keto last week, 22 pounds down so all good but the question I have is, I take L-Caritine, CLA, Kelp, Spirulina, Potassium, Zinc Magnesium, with a shot of apple cider Vinegar and a small black coffee every morning! Then pills & vinegar again at 1pm and 9pm, I eat between 3pm and 5pm so I can get enough salad and veg in, but am I wasting the fast by taking the pills at 6am 1pm and 9pm?

So can I take my supplements during my fasting window?

The horse in the background when he says off my high horse is a nice touch

This guy ROCKS! What a GREAT video, very informative...

So taking minerals is good but what about vitamins? For example I have a pill that has calcium, zinc, and magnesium in one would you recommend taking is during the fasting part of it or once you break it ?

Hey, your graphic in the beginning misspells "Trainer" as "Tranier."

Been following for a week now, but have been learning more and more and doing intermittent fasting and ketogenic diet. And thanks to this guy right here I'm actually getting results that I'm feeling and seeing.🤘😎👍

One of your most important videos. Very helpful.

Hey man can you share what kind of mineral and sodium I should be taken while I am during my fasting period?

This man is the king of the smedium shirt

Excellent information!

This is great info. Thank you as always.

Thank you, Thomas! I will drink more water during my Intermittent Fasting, and I increased my water high enough, I know to add my Himalayan Salt for electrolytes. I am more motivated to drink more during my fasting time!! Thank you!

Hey all.. Dr.Eric Berg does a video on things that you can consume when you are fasting. ACV and coffee in small amounts are ok. I suggest watching his video.

Excellent info!!!

Your videos are the best to watch! My favorite.

Can confirm the water part. I get hot, radiating whooshes and I know that means my body is processing fat. I woke up with cramps in my legs and my piss was darker than usual. Drink a lot of water!

How much water should one consume during intermittent fasting. For e.g. if in normal days 12 to 16 glasses of water then during fasting how much?

Juan Luzuriaga Can you go over what can break your fasting? I’m talking about small things like I have Califia toasted almond coconut milk in the morning with coffee and I just noticed that this may interrupt my fasting even having no sugar and low carb content.

New sub here. I'm a data analyst. You're smart. You're stuff adds up. Thank you!

Another suggestion, as I’m a massage therapist, is weekly or bi-weekly massages while intermittent fasting. This helps with breaking up fat cells and the release of toxins. And works great especially if you’re doing intermittent fasting for fat loss.

Okay, just watched your video about dry fasting

Thanks for the tips.

Thank you Thomas for all your information and videos. Iam starting my long term fast 💨 this week and you really help me get mentally prepared for it👍👍👍👍 Thank you 😊 very grateful 😁

#2: what about artificial sweeteners (like Stevia etc.). They don't _contain_ calories, but by being sweet, do they _signal_ incoming calories to the body? Does that mess up the metabolism, particularly the insulin response?

I'm a month in, with spectacular results - my comments (in appreciation): [1] Was and is a delight - greens, protein and fats was easily hit. [2] Coffee creamers have never featured in the diet. Mainly because I hate coffee [3] Only BCAA's I get are from Broccoli on eating days, so that's not an issue... [4] Water + NaCl (1tsp in 2L as recommended) - a total solution. 4 - 6l a day during fasting, and kills hunger brilliantly. [5] NaCl in water (as above) + Zinc + others, are a matter of course. Vitamin C avoided as per previous advice. ADF has been my salvation, and made me new, and is torching fat - 36 hour fast is a breeze - my thanks as always, and with kind regards.

Enlightening! Great content! Awesome channel!👍👍

help ful video. thank you so much

Thanks for this Video. Very useful informations. I ve 1 question: Did you ever hear of "Dryfasting". Its actually 3 times more effective than waterfasting. So 1 day Dryfasting is like 3 days fasting with water. I read the body produces its own pure water, taking out the hydrogen from the fatcells combinging it with O² what you breathe in. I also read, that with this kind of fasting, you don't lose any musclemass and only fat. I would really appreciate you reading or scientifically approaching this kind of "Dryfasting". It sounds like the ultimate key. EDIT: Nevermind, I just recognized, you already did a video about dryfasting. AMAZING!!!

I've learned the hard way that I gotta add in a lot of salt. I add a pinch of coarse salt to every 16oz glass I drink. If I consume a low amount of sodium today and exercise tomorrow, I will feel like crap during and after. My shoulders will ache and I'll be short of breath and light headed with minimal exertion.

Really enjoyed this video.

Hi Thomas! Thanks for your great video! I was wondering: how do I get those missing minerals while fasting? Through supplements? Which kind of supplements? Thanks a lot!!!

Question here. I'm a Chef and i have to test all the food. Not much just a teaspoon and and most of it i spit it out again. Is that breaking my fast? How many calories that it takes to be counted as fast breaking? And how if i smoke?

Video idea: Just watched a vid where you said to fast instead of eat when you are stressed. I am SUCH a stress eater and it's usually when I chuck all rules out the window. I would love to see more on that topic because fasting when I'm stressed sounds so counter intuitive. Did you do some yoga or what? Because food calms me down I feel like I need ideas of how to calm down and then I could fast too. I would guess that most overweight people are stress eaters. Thanks!

I have been water fasting for several years now. But I found this video useful thank you.

Very informative... I wasn't aware of a lot of things

I got an ad with you in it

Is liquidized rib eye steak ok to add to my water during my fast?

Excellent video - thank you, just subbed.

This is awesome! Thanks Thomas!
