[06:35] The Difference Between Cutting Calories Without Fasting vs. Cutting Calories With Fasting
- A 16-hour eating window is unhealthy no matter how many calories you are eating.
- When we narrow our feeding window, we can start to get real benefits and repairs.
- Our body is a self-healing machine; we have damage that our body always fixes.
- When we give our bodies a break from digestion, then our bodies can increase the repairs of damaged cells.
- Remember, your body doesn’t start to ramp up repairs until six hours after your last meal.
[11:30] Fasting Around The World: The Religious and Spiritual History of Fasting
- Fasting existed in virtually every single culture.
- 3,000 years ago, fasting wasn’t for health. Instead, fasting was to appease the gods.
- Fasting is excellent for physiological changes that put you in a more meditative state.
- An ancient physiologist said that for epilepsy, you should fast and exercise. Two thousand years later, we learned that fasting could cure childhood epilepsy.
- Sadly, the medicine of fasting was washed out until the last 400 years.
- Now, we know that fasting is a super powerful tool for health.
[24:40] The Reason You Need To Stop Skipping Breakfast
- Most people who practice daily fasting skip breakfast and eat at noon for the first time. However, our bodies do not want to process nutrients throughout the evening.
- Our circadian rhythms have hardwired us to process food more efficiently earlier in the day.
- In the later afternoon, we become much less efficient at processing food.
- By nighttime, we are terrible at processing food.
[37:10] What You Need To Know About Fasting and Cancer
- When you fast, your cells reject external inputs.
- During a fast, your healthy cells are protecting themselves.
- Fasting during chemo treatment results in less nausea, less vomiting, fewer headaches, and less fatigue.
- You can increase the dose of chemotherapy when the patient can tolerate it better.
- Overall, you can give more chemo, kill cancer, and hurt the patient less during a fast.
[42:20] What Can Fasting Do For High Blood Pressure?
- The American Heart Association says that high blood pressure cannot be cured.
- However, studies show that prolonged water fasting can reverse high blood pressure.
- In 10 days of water fasting, 80% of high blood pressure patients can achieve normal blood pressure and get off their medications.
- People with the worst blood pressure had the best outcomes from water fasting.
[47:35] Productivity or Lack of Energy: Potential Side Effects During A Longer Fast
- Many people find difficulty with long fasts when they are unhealthy.
- Fasting can result in skin rashes, nausea, headaches, and fatigue.
- During a fast, you can become more contemplative or more productive.
- Overall, there are many good and bad side effects that happen. During a prolonged fast, Steve would feel excellent and thoughtful. On other days, Steve would have no energy.
