today I’m going to talk about intermittent fasting patterns or protocols for different body situations alright let’s start at the top growth hormone growth hormone is the anti-aging hormone it helps burn fat it helps preserve muscle and when you’re doing fasting it starts to increase at 12 hours now if you continue to do fasting it’s going to keep going up and plateau right around 24 hours but fasting can really spike growth hormone in a big way exercise will also increase growth hormone and sleeping will increase growth hormone so when you talk about growth hormone most people think anti-aging so fasting has a great influence to increase growth hormone but it starts at 12 hours and if you continue too fast it’ll increase from there number two at otha G etapa G is a condition where your body is recycling damaged proteins and it’s clearing out microbes pathogens so look at it like a garbage disposer body is getting rid of non-functional proteins that it doesn’t need and it’s becoming very efficient and optimizing things and turning all the damaged protein into new amino acids and the spike with the top of G starts around 18 hours of fasting so that still gives you like a six hour eating window which is pretty easy to do for most people so it’s going to recycle damaged protein okay it’s gonna kill microbes so it’s going to make you look younger it’s going to help break down something called amyloid plaque which is in the brain it’s another tissue patients who have Alzheimer’s usually have amyloid plaque inking also in the liver it can help break down unwanted protein as in cirrhosis or fibrosis so it’s gonna help break that down to some degree and also etapa G will help get rid of AG ease advanced glycation end-products this is a result of combining protein with sugar the proteins become sticky they’re no longer functional and there’s no benefit to them they create all sorts of health problems and the other cool thing about etapa G is it will kill and clean up pathogens it’s and even viruses so people that have chronic fatigue syndrome a lot of times have a hidden chronic infection in the background so when they get in there tapa G and you clean up the microbes all of a sudden their energy starts going higher and higher and they’re not sure why but it’s dealing with this hidden infection and of course if you do this longer you’ll have more etapa G all right number three inflammation you can really see a drop in inflammation when you do ohm at one meal a day so you’re fasting for 23 hours you’re eating for one hour per day so when you’re doing Oh mad you’re really knocking down that oxidative stress which is corroding and corrupting all the tissues also you’re improving inflammation arthritis the inflammation in autoimmune conditions and gut inflammation and this also applies if you get sick with some lung issue or the flu if you do oh man you can really speed up the recovery process before cancer now with cancer I would recommend doing ohm at one meal a day that’s 23 hours of fasting with periodic prolonged fasting now why because cancer lives on two things glucose okay but if you’re on a ketogenic diet and you fast you’re gonna starve off cancer that way but also cancer lives on glutamine which is an amino acid so the more that you fast the more you can reduce glutamine the problem with glutamine is it’s in pretty much all the foods that you eat so it’s very difficult to avoid it and a lot of times people are caught between a rock and a hard place because they want to avoid that amino acid but they also want to avoid the breakdown of muscle protein so one strategy that some people do is they take certain combinations of all the essential amino acids as a supplement why they’re fasting to get all the amino acids except glutamine so the combination of routine Oh mad one meal a day with maybe weekly prolonged fast for 48 maybe even 72 hours and on top of that consuming a good amount of cruciferous vegetables when you’re eating is going to be very very smart to start building up your immune system and decreasing something called angiogenesis so tumors for example need a blood flow when you consume cruciferous it can help to limit the amount of blood supply to tumors alright number five stem cell what’s a stem cell a stem cell is an undifferentiated cell so it hasn’t turned into anything yet so when you fast for 72 hours and of course you’re gonna do this periodically you’re gonna majorly stimulate stem cells which can really build new tissue so wherever your body needs to grow new tissue whether it’s in the colon and the immune system in the brain you can actually increase the stem cells by fasting a bit longer than you would normally fast there’s a certain protein in the body called PKA and when you fast you decrease this protein and that will activate the stem cells next thing is stubborn weight so most people fast to lose weight or religious reasons and some people do it for health reasons but if you have a stubborn weight situation like really stubborn I would recommend doing ohm at one meal a day every other day so you’re eating every 48 hours make sure you’re getting your nutrients but this is necessary for some people to really tap into the fat especially if they had a history of diabetes but the key is making sure you have the right nutrients because you’re fasting for a good period of time so definitely enhance your diet with nutrients and make sure that when you eat it’s really nutrient dense foods okay last thing diabetes with diabetes you can really help the blood sugar situation with fasting because diabetes is a problem with excess sugar and so if we avoid carbohydrates we’re going to bring it down now the problem with doing it as a diabetic is that you must check your blood Sugar’s routinely and get with your doctor to adjust the medications because if you lower the blood sugar and you take the same amount of medication you’re gonna end up with a severe low blood sugar because you’re taking medication when you really don’t need it so when the blood sugars start going on the low side you shouldn’t be taking insulin or even other diabetes medication because all its gonna do is it’s gonna drive it down even lower you can even end up with some pretty serious problems so check with your doctor do it gradually and really focus on these blood sugars because it’s going to come down pretty significantly and you want to make some adjustments alright guys last thing I’m gonna mention is that there’s not a lot of data um not a lot of studies yet this is still a work in progress what I’m talking about is just my opinion based on working with people so because there’s so many variables you’re gonna have to test the waters and try different things and see what works for you and lastly click the button on this video to watch this very interesting video on a toff adji I think you’ll really enjoy it
