now when does fasting become starvation let’s talk about that an average non-overweight person is carrying around about a hundred thousand calories of fat on their body okay 100,000 they’re only carrying around about 1700 calories of stored sugar but a lot of fat and that’s someone that’s not even overweight now let’s say that person weighed 150 pounds okay on average and this is a very rough estimate a person that’s 150 pounds is going to be burning about a thousand to two thousand calories per day now it could be a little less could be a little bit more but roughly about between a thousand and two thousand and it really depends on the person’s age their activity level how much muscle they have there’s a lot of variables but let’s just take an average 1500 calories okay we divide that by a hundred thousand we get 67. 67 days of calories to live off of because the difference between fasting and starving during fasting you’re living off your fat fuel when you’re starving you’ve already tapped out your fat now you’re living off your muscle and your organ you’re turning those two into fuel so this is a person that is not necessarily overweight like an average person there are people that have a hundred pounds of extra fat 200 pounds of extra fat i know one guy that weighed 600 pounds okay so obviously they can fast for a lot longer hypothetically the world record for the person who fasted the longest it was over a year so really depending on how much fat you have will determine how long you can fast and it’s interesting because some people kind of freak out if they just eat one meal a day they think they’re going to starve or if they have to fast 48 hours realize that an average person has a tremendous amount of potential energy fat calories to survive well before they start to starve okay so when you’re fasting you’re not hungry okay when you’re starving you are starving you’re very very hungry when you’re fasting you’re calm you’re serene when you’re starving you’re gonna be irritable when you’re fasting your be focused when you’re starving you’re going to be almost an apathy when you’re fasting you actually spare muscle so the body protects the muscle okay so it’s not going to use that for fuel when you’re starving you start to develop atrophy of the muscle so you have muscle wasting and you’re also a bit hyperactive when you’re fasting you have a lot of energy when you’re starving you are fatigued when you’re fasting your body conserves nutrients when you’re starving you create all sorts of nutritional deficiencies i mean like they’re called classical or major vitamin deficiencies vitamin b1 deficiency which is berry berry and with that comes all sorts of additional symptoms pellegra that’s a vitamin b3 deficiency scurvy vitamin c deficiency rickets vitamin d deficiency so you have many many different symptoms coming up from this when do you know that you’re starving versus fasting well when you start to develop some of these symptoms subjectively you will know and this whole thing depends on how much fat that you have to run your body on and the nutrient reserves and i do recommend when you fast you take your basic nutrients so you never have this being a risk factor right here all right there you go thanks for watching 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
