I've lost 110 pounds since October 2022 by utilizing intermittent fasting and walking every day. I was 330 pounds when I started, so it certainly wasn't easy to walk, let alone skip meals.I have since stopped taking blood pressure medication, heartburn medicine, and stopped using my CPAP machine. Oh, and I quit smoking in the middle of the process and continued to lose weight. If you're reading this, be encouraged. If I can do it, so can you.

If you call a chiropractor a doctor. There is an abundance of evidence that fasting causes high stress with increased cortisol levels and increased anxiety. There is a reason we feel hungry when we do. It is a survival response. Sorry if you find this offensive but I personally consider chiropractic to be quackery. It is not a science based approach to health care. Just my opinion

Your body healing an open wound is also a survival response. I’m sure over weight and obese people feel “hungry” quite often. Ironically that “survival” response could also be the cause of their death. Fasting is healthy.

I went and got a physical in Oct/23 because I was feeling light headed and had chest pains. My Dr told me my blood pressure was super high and he would like for me to go on medication. I ask him to give me 2 months and if nothing changes I would start the medication. 2 months later 12/23 I’ve lost over 20 pounds doing 16/8 fasting and when I went back to see him. He was stunned and call me a “success story”. No medication for me. Fasting works 👍

I fast for about 23 hours a day, and I follow the healthy ketogenic diet. There are about 14 other educators at the university where I am employed at who have been encouraged to change their lifestyles after seeing my results. Thank you Dr. Berg for all of the valuable information that you share. P.S - I also do NOT have a thyroid gland since 2022 and that hasn’t prevented my progress

I started intermittent fasting as of Jan 11, 2023. I am a dialysis patient so I have to watch everything I eat because of phosphorus., and my numbers were always high and nomatter what i did I could not lower my numbers with phosphorus or blood pressure 210/120. Well i started fasting only eating one meal per day, always protien, vegetables, fruit, and plenty of water and green teas. I also added mushroom like cordyceps, lions mane, Reshi, turmeric, and a multi vitamin, and I cut out all sugar and salt. All my numbers have improved big time! My blood presure is now at 116/67 and my phosphorus is at 3.2 which was 9.8.. and my kidney are coming back to life.I went from 360' to 200' in just a year in a half❤. Is it a miracle I dont know, but all i can say is Fasting has made me better, and improved my health in just a year in a half. This is now my life style..❤❤❤And I know if i could do it anybosy could. MY MOTIVATION IS, I CHOOSE TO LIVE❤ God bless you all.

I've been intermittent fasting for over 10 years now. After Michael Mosley talked about it. I've recently noticed I never feel hungry. I can't remember the last time I felt hungry. My normal feeding window is noon to 6pm, but I often stop around 4pm as I physically feel I've eaten enough that day. I skip breakfast and have a main meal to break my fast. I don't snack much during the feeding window - I just don't feel the need anymore. I'm trying to listen to what my body wants. I'm over 50, no meds. Happy fasting to all who fast!

ALL TRUE! Last year, I went on a 40-Days and 40-Nights Water Fast and lost close to 50lbs. When I decided I was going to fast this long, I did watch your videos on fasting. I typically watched your videos for keto etc. The first day was fine, the second day sucked and I wanted McDonald's but persevered. 3rd day halfway through is when my breakthrough came. It was like someone took jumper cables and attached them to a battery. I all of a sudden got all of my energy back and then some. Each day after that through the 6th day, it seemed like my energy doubled. I was drinking 2 liters of electrolytes and water (tablespoon or two or salt and no salt. Sometimes I had black coffee and zero-sugar Powerade (I know, I know). My glucose levels from day 1 went from 299 to totally stabilized at 70-80 on Day 6, and stayed there the rest of the fast. I was losing 2lbs per day for most of the fast, and 1-1/2lbs other days. Two things did intrigue me though. Two separate times, I woke up in the middle of the night with blood in my mouth that was gel-like. I found out after seeing it the second time, it looked like the blood came from a part of my muller tooth. I did have a part of that tooth break off. I was also using keto sticks for my urine, and after a week, those sticks were deep purple every day to the point that I really didn't need to measure my ketones every day. Day 31 and another day I sometimes got woozy when I got up from sitting. Make sure you have plenty of activities and hobbies and new skills to learn when fasting because you're going to learn just how much we in Western culture plan everything around eating. Too much to post in a comment, but fasting and autophagy work. I think I might still have the video short in my KZfaq bio showing my transformation.

I was born in Europe in the Christian orthodox family. Every year, my grandma used to fast for one month before the Eastern, and a couple of times during the year before other minor holidays, eating only one meal a day such as: beans with sauerkraut, some vegetables and bread. As long as I remember, she always used to say that it was at the fasting time that she felt the best. Lived to age of 96.

@@spirituallight6619 Part of the routine is not having a rut style routine; your body adapts and then you don't get the benefit you got at first from your routine so I shake it up. For the 5-6 months I was healing most dramatically I did about 80% OMAD (one meal a day) and 20% 2MAD (16:8). I didn't do that on purpose, per se, but I kept a diary and when I ran the numbers that's what it came out to. During that time I did probably 4 extended fasts from 3- to 5-days long (all water fasts, no dry) yet. When I was eating I ate an omnivorous, mostly organic, pastured animal and clean vegetable diet that was between 20 - 50 carbs a day. No added sugar, no alcohol, no processed food. None. I had a severe problem and I was bound and determined to fix it. I also took "Naked Glutamine" which helps with gut lining rebuild. And, your "standard" vitamins and minerals; I'm not listing the regular old stuff I take, it's not worth it. You can search Dr. Berg's channel for vitamins and minerals he recommends. I also get regular exercise, aerobic and anaerobic. I got a rebounder for lymphatic health and use that regularly. And we got a puppy after 8 months post-losing our beloved first dog. Now that I'm healed for the most part I'm learning the nuances of MY body and what I PERSONALLY need. And, for now, it's more complex carbs. I'm tending to fast "hard" the first 10 days of my cycle (either with a 3- to 5-day water fast, or a 1- to 2-day dry fast, or OMAD every day for 10 days...something like that and low carb. The rest of the month I'm doing probably 100 g of carb a day, but still clean, whole foods, no added sugar or processed junk. Hope that helps! I don't really have a regular "morning to night" routine, but I do get up at 5:30 every morning and go to bed around 9 every night.

Plus a 3-day dry fast (the latest prolonged fast I've done). As for eating, I'm super clean omnivorous with almost NO added sugar (only complex, nature's carbs). At first I did SUPER LOW CARB), but now I'm still super clean, no added "outside" sugar or processed anything, but I'm NOT "low carb." And I'm not fasting as much, but I AM extremely mindful of the MMC (migrating motor complex) - do your own research on that. I keep 4 hours between calorie consumption times ("meals"). I've kept off the 25 lbs I lost in the first 6 months. I'm muscular (thank you, HGH and stem cells), lean (thank you fasting and being mindful of insulin spiking), female, 5'2", 104 lbs. Instead of trying to find a magic bullet perfect schedule and food, etc, I urge you to get in tune with your OWN BODY and take all the advice "out there" and tailor it to what ends up working for you.

Hello from the UK, Dr Berg. I have just finished a 5 day fast again. It's something I do quite often. During my fast, I exercise each day for at least 30 minutes (sometimes 1 hour) on my cross-trainer at home. The energy I have whilst fasting is just astounding. I feel I could go on for a lot longer, but I have to be sensible and don't want to get burnt-out. By the way, I am 56 years old and I am told very often I look around 40! I also have a body which most young men would want too 😉 Thank you as always. Simon

I started my fasting journey 2 years ago. I also exercised (because we all should to some degree no matter what), but it helped me shed a lot of weight fairly quickly, and I omitted the refined carbs in my feeding windows. I will also say, last year, I did a 21-day clean fast, and it helped correct some of my sight in my left eye. Starting is TOUGH because we are used to expecting food, but once you get past that hump (for me, it's the first 24 hours of major struggling), it gets easier. It changes how you perceive food. Keep up on the (pink Himalayan) salt. You just feel better all around...physically and mentally. Absolutely worth it.

Dr. Berg, I've followed you for the past 3 years. I was dx with chronic kidney disease and was basically told by a nephrologist that there wasn't much to do. She put me on multile treatments and medications which none worked to improve my creatinine and protein levels. I began taking 2 TBSP of ACV daily and within months, my levels came down so much that I was in remission. Not a single treatment I tried worked. They gave me a bunch of awful side effects and weight gain, but my levels would not budge. I have since been taking ACV daily and have consistently lowered my levels without relaps. Thank you for posting these informative videos to give us alternatives.

Beautifully presented. Everyone takes advantage of fasting, whether they know it or not especially when you get the flu or something similar and you lose your appetite. It is because your body knows the benefits of fasting. Some people get bogged down at work and realize “Oh, I haven’t eaten all day.”Not realizing the reason that they’re not hungry is because their body has tapped into their fat stores. Once you don’t consume food up to the 13 hour mark, that is the average for when your body taps into its fat store. One reason, your body uses its night of sleep as a repair phase is because it is taking advantage of the fasting state that you are in while sleeping. all the energy used for eating and digesting food is direct towards the healing of your body. so many benefits, I am 53 years of age and thriving off of this. I am 90% plant based Currently, nothing is wrong with me. Started eating healthy and fasting at the age of 39 Obesity, high blood pressure, gingivitis and joint pain is gone. No telling what else I would’ve had by now if I didn’t change my ways. Very nice video doctor.

Such a good video! My vision improved to the point that I no longer need glasses for distance or reading and I am 63. I would like to add that the I still take fiber and supplements and heavy cream in my coffee with prolonged fasting. Also, I add probiotics during fasting to keep the gut biome alive and healthy.

I started this year off with a 3 day fast right into Keto with intermittent fasting. I am doing the 18-6 window and so far I have lost 14 lbs in 16 days! The 3 day fast felt so good by the time I was done. I actually ended up going 80 hours.

So I’m diabetic and taking insulin injections four times a day (for 20 years). I’m already skipping an evening meal so fasting from 1pm until 5am. Now I’m diagnosed with polycythemia Vera. I’ve plateaued at 200lbs down from 310lbs with a X4CABG 13 years ago. I still work full time at 67.

Hello Dr. Berg, I'm 49 years old but feel like 20. I've been doing Intermittent Fasting for about 6 years now. Mo thru Fr 18:6 and Sa+Su 22:2. I came across IF by chance. I was looking for information about a way to improve my health in a natural way. After a blood test my triglycerides showed 1920 mg/dl, ran the test again to find out a higher result, 1980 mg/ld. My doctor said "you can drop dead any minute". Less than a month after following your IF guide the value came down to 122 mg/dl. As I couldn´t believe it, I ran the test again, and to my surprise 117 mg/dl. I refused to take statins after learning about all the side effects. Thank you for all the information you share!. Initial weight 185 lb, now 150 lb.

Currently on 34 fasting hours of a 21 day fast. Completed 20 water fasting days in 2023 and only reason I had to stop was because I did not have enough electrolytes. I learned that the first two days are extremely tough because your body is fighting against you but just push through and the hunger honestly goes away and you feel really good 🎉🎉🎉

I just came off a 14 day water fast. It's true the first days are the hardest. On day four I plateaued and it was clear sailing until at day 14 I suddenly felt it was time and I broke the fast with an orange, chewed to pure pulp before swallowing. The BIG mistake is to start eating too quickly. It's really VERY dangerous.

I told one person I started fasting and instantly was feeling regret but then i just started referencing Dr. Berg. It's insane that people still think we should be eating around the clock. The only issue I have is finding things to do in space of when I use to eat.
