so I’m gonna answer another question today relating to feeling weak and faint when they’re fasting at 20:00 hours so they can’t seem to get past that 20 hour mark now for you it could be 24 hours it could be a little longer it could be a little bit shorter so let’s discuss how do you advance to the next level without feeling weak or faint so realize this we’re going from glucose metabolism to running on ketones and fatty acids okay that process does take some time it’s going to take a lot longer if you have pre-existing diabetes if you have insulin and resistance really bad it could take months and months and months so let’s say for example you’re at two meals okay your first meal is at two o’clock in the afternoon your second meal is at six and then you fast for 20 hours if you’re having a hard time doing this okay and you’re feeling weak and faint you need to back it up to this right here you need to kind of cut it back to an easier level because you haven’t given enough time for your body to adapt now I’m going to show you a couple things to speed it up but if you’re feeling weak or faint you’re going too fast and we need to cut things back to get your body to get used to it a little bit longer so you want to let how you feel dictate when you should go from this level to this level to this level this is basically three meals a day seven am twelve and six and then you’re going to skip your breakfast and go to lunch 12 noon and 6:00 p. m. and eventually you’re going to start pushing that lunch and dinner together closer and closer and closer so even if you’re having a hard time with eighteen hours okay well then back it up out of breakfast in there just avoid snacks okay by adding more fat until you can do this comfortably until your cravings go away but also you want to feel energetic you want to have good cognitive function you don’t want to feel frayed and by the way fainting and feeling weak could be low sodium all right so you want to make sure you’re doing your sea salt how much at least one teaspoon one level teaspoon many people need like one and a half teaspoons especially if they’re exercising but at least one teaspoon that could be the reason why you’re feeling weak and faint and you can’t seem too fast longer the other thing is the B vitamins okay especially about em b1 and also the electrolytes potassium magnesium now both of these categories of nutrients are involved in your metabolism your biochemistry and they’re very necessary in helping you make energy so if you’re not doing these that could be the reason why you’re feeling weak and faint and also you can add some MCT oil this just basically gives you more ketones to run on and it could be because you have some pretty bad insulin resistance you’re not able to fully get into ketosis 100% yet so you can add this to speed things up some other people are using my fasting tea that seems to help because it has certain federal nutrients to help their blood Sugar’s but the main point to understand is that if you’re having symptoms for this just cut it back give it more time until you graduate to the next level and then do this more gradually so you go from 18 hours to 19 then to 20 and then get used to that and then slowly keep pushing it forward alright so that’s your summing up and thanks for watching if you’re liking this content please subscribe now and I will actually keep you updated on future videos
