so you always want to fast during an infection as much as possible it’s going to really help you we’re going to talk about why fasting is amazing it delays aging it can extend your life span it does the same thing with insects and animals and when we get sick we tend to lose our appetite the reason why is because fasting creates a profound effect on your immune system there’s all sorts of genetic survival mechanisms that occur when we stop eating when you stop eating your body starts to burn your fat you start making ketones ketones have anti-infective properties so they can act as a antimicrobial to some degree also when you fast you increase the survival of your t cells and your b cells okay now the t cells are the ones that run the immune system kill microbes help put the fire out help reduce inflammation b cells have to do with making antibodies so you have a memory of the infection so you can fight the infection off the next time that microbe comes around fasting increases from the survival of both of these but initially when you fast you get a drop in the white blood cells the lymphocytes decrease in the blood now where are they going they’re going into the bone marrow and they’re going into the gut and they’re recharging and they’re eating now we get an increase in memory cells which help destroy pathogens much faster there’s also specific spike in the t helper cells this is the cell that coordinates all the other immune actions so it’s like the general of the army and it just so happens as a side note the aids virus goes after this right here so it goes after the controller it has some intelligence that it knows that if it takes this guy out it takes the entire army out well fasting will increase the tea helper cells you also get autophagy if you fast long enough autophagy is a special condition where your body starts to clean up old damaged white blood cells and things that are not needed and recycles them also there’s other things that autophagy can stimulate too helping control viral infections decreasing inflammation and also presenting antigens now what does that mean presenting energies well certain t cells need to be guided so they need certain pathogens that are tagged like a little exon the virus is back saying kill me and this is what this is all about but you can look at antigens as a little piece of a microbe like if you were to take um i don’t know if you had a uh i don’t know like maybe a dog that’s trying to sniff out drugs and you let the dog smell a certain drug and he would actually go look for it because now he has a scent of it and he can find it the same thing with your immune cells this is like the scent or a piece or a particle of that pathogen so it knows what to go after and other cells do the dirty work by killing the pathogens this is interesting in a three-day fast you can have profound effects over your immune system you will trigger the stem cells that regenerate the immune cell you may think it’s going to be very difficult but as soon as you start fasting it’s going to get easier and easier and easier i would take your nutrients when you’re fasting but the point is you can greatly strengthen your immune system there’s two ways that this infection can affect you one is directly from the pathogen itself and two is from the collateral damage from your own immune system especially like rheumatoid arthritis or even autoimmune diseases the damage is not coming from the pathogen even those pathogens involved it’s coming from your own immune system that’s creating all this collateral damage so when you fast you dramatically reduce inflammation i would also recommend during an infection to take vitamin d i would also recommend taking oregano oil which is great for bacterial infections also in viral garlic is a very powerful and definitely olive leaf extract for viral infections so you take these in an empty stomach plus fasting now you have a really good program and if you haven’t taken my immune course yet it’s a free course 21 lessons i put a link down below definitely sign up today hey we’re back with another amazing recipe no grains no sugar totally keto there’s no suffering in keto absolutely not karen and it’s an immune system builder absolutely you have to check this out i think you should hurry up watch the recipe and make it yourself it’s just so easy to be keto but is it simple it’s super simple we hope you enjoy making it as much as we are enjoying eating it
