hey guys I’m back with another video today I’m going to talk about some confusion that some people have on two topics one is in a minute fasting and the other is the ketogenic diet sometimes when you do searches on ketogenic diet you’ll see that it’s an emergency state where your body is being stressed out that is totally not true I think the confusion is not understanding of how your body can adapt from sugar burning into fat burning fat burning is a very efficient state when you’re burning fat you’re also running on ketones as well and your brain loves ketones way more than glucose this is why so many brain conditions improve when you put someone on the ketogenic diet Alzheimer’s Parkinson’s epilepsy all sorts of things and then there’s this condition called ketoacidosis okay which is a dangerous condition but very rare in diabetics type 1 it’s you’re not gonna see this in a normal person that is healthy okay because the word ketone is in ketoacidosis they associated being both the same thing and it’s just a big confusion being in the state of ketosis is completely different than being in the state of ketoacidosis okay completely different situations and you’re not going to develop ketoacidosis unless you’re a type 1 and you’re doing it incorrectly and if a person starts doing healthy ketosis and eating keto friendly foods that are healthy they will never in a million years develop ketoacidosis if you’re a type 1 and you’re not regulating your insulin correctly and your blood sugars are out of control well that’s when you’re gonna experience problems ok now let’s talk about intermittent fasting sometimes people think it’s starvation ok I’m gonna use this dictionary Macmillan dictionary just to define the word starving ok to suffer and die of hunger ok that’s what starvation means to deprive nourishment it comes from the old english word steal or fan which means to die okay that’s what starvation is fasting is slightly different the definition fasting is to eat little or no food or only certain kinds food okay what happens when you starve is you already tapped out your fat reserve and now you’re running on muscle protein and organ protein okay and then you eventually die it has some side effects when you’re doing fasting you’re tapping out your glycogen Reserve your stored sugar you’re running on your fat fuel and your stored reserve of nutrients and the benefit is you live longer so when you starve you die when you fast you actually live longer okay and there’s so many health benefits that occur when you’re doing fasting when you’re starving you’re hungry when you’re fasting you have no hunger why because you’re running on your fat fuel alright guys so doing a healthy keto plan is not a state of emergency it’s a very healthy low stress thing and doing in a minute fasting is not starvation all right thanks for watching so if you want more knowledge on how to create a healthy body subscribe now and get daily notifications daily notifications that sounds weird well I’ll just remind you on a daily basis how about that
