now this video is going to talk about the amazing  huge influence of fasting on your genetics your genes what’s a gene it’s your blueprints or code  or instructions for building proteins now i’m not just talking about muscle or tendons or ligaments  talking about the little proteins involved in all the biochemistry in your body from making hormones  neurotransmitters to releasing stored glucose for fuel so you have millions and millions of  these proteins but they have to be instructed of what to do and when someone does fasting some  magical things happen to your genetics fasting is just one but a very important epigenetic influence  over your genes now what does epigenetic mean epigenetics is something above genes  it’s the thing that controls your genes your genes can either be turned on  or turned off upregulated which means turned on or downgraded turned off to a  certain degree so fasting is a very potent trigger for turning on or turning off these genes  now there’s certain genes like this one right here cfhr1 gene which gets massively upregulated when  you do fasting and this is the gene that helps you regulate cholesterol now the sirtuin gene which  is anti-aging also gets turned on and up regulated when you fast yet at the same time there  are other genes that get turned down one being the app gene which is responsible  for making amyloid plaquing which you see in alzheimer’s so you can read between the lines  fasting will help decrease this plaquing then you have some other interesting genes right here  that are overexpressed when you get certain types of cancer these genes are down regulated this is  why fasting is so vital if you have cancer or if you’re trying to prevent cancer if you haven’t  seen my video on an interview of someone who had stage four cancer who now doesn’t have any cancer  i’ll put a link down below with that interview because it’s quite amazing he did some massive  fasting different variations of fasting he did one meal a day sometimes he did seven day fast he  even did another fast that was over 40 days which you really need to know what you’re doing but  he did it and now he is cancer free but you can start getting benefits from fasting at a 16-hour fast  at 18 hours you’re going to get a little bit more benefits at one meal a day you’re going to  get even more benefits so fasting affects your genetics fasting also stimulates something called  autophagy which is your body’s ability to recycle damaged proteins as well as clean up  microbes and viruses out of the body fasting drops inflammation supports the immune system  specifically the stem cells in your bone tissue fasting will help you build up your antioxidant  networks your body actually can make antioxidants and you build up this network when you  fast fasting builds up the cellular stress resistance it makes your cells resistant to stress  fasting not only helps with the metabolic syndrome syndrome x but it will increase your metabolism  it can actually reverse the degeneration of brain cells it’s quite amazing there are  also certain genes that get down regulated that can trigger bipolar as well as downgrading  certain genes that are responsible for depression this is why you get mood elevation and so  many cognitive improvements so on that note i put a link down below of exactly what you  need to do when you start fasting check it out before you go if you have a question about a  product or you’re new to keto and you want to know how to begin keto or you’re on keto and you  need a debug because it’s not going as smooth i have a keto consultant standing  by to help you this is just for the people in the u. s hopefully in the future  we’ll be able to answer everyone’s call but i put the number down below  so you can call and get some help
