I'm 52 .I had a heart attack , my fiancé died, and then I became guardian of my 3 - and 5 year old granddaughters. This caused me to lose my full-time job and become PRN. needless to say, I was in a deep depression along with severe panic attacks. I came across you on TH-cam, bought your book, and gave it a shot. I lost 15 lbs on the reset the 9 lbs the week after on a 72-hour fast. I noticed my skin was no longer dry. I'm off all depression and anxiety meds. Even though everything is still hard, I'm happy. I can see my blessings now, and I know I'm not gonna drown. I know now why fasting was always part of God's plan . Thank you.
@mrsbootsworkouts - I'm 43. I started different forms of fasting about this time, last year. I'll typically just skip breakfast on most days. I also try to get at least 2 weight-lift sessions in, per week... and started to take several supplements based on how I had been feeling. 30 pounds, down... and I find it's pretty easy to maintain. Check out Dr. Berg, here on TH-cam. He covers just about everything with fasting and supplements.
@@DerisedEgami - thank you for the inspiration, it sounds amazing! I have been doing 1 or 2 36 hour fasts per week, and my weight fluctuates plus minus several pounds within a week. I will check him out, keep doing the amazing work, thank you!
@@mrsbootsworkouts - Awesome. The one thing that comes to mind is he cautions to use fasting as a "shock". Too much fasting, and the body actually becomes efficient at using less calories.... and it thus becomes a little more difficult to lose weight. I think I'm trying to pull out of this, currently. Good luck!
I struggled with grief and addiction. I read Jesus’ advice to fast, found Mindy, did two consecutive 48 hour fasts with a day of vegetable broth in between and received the Holy Spirit. Sacrifice your life and you shall gain it! 🙌🏻
@@naureenkhashwji8039 feeling so good. I was crashing yesterday but I had glass of water with some added minerals and a bit of sea salt and I felt like a new person. Started getting a headache last night but I took some activated charcoal and lots of water and am totally fine ever since. Lots of energy. Feel like I could go longer but I’m having company for dinner tonight lol so I’ll eat at noon like planned.
I m on my 72 hours one and have about 6 hours left I have done it many times and after 2 times or 3 it just becomes sooo easy I sometimes don’t eat even for 5 days and I work in construction site so all my job is physical
That 48 hour mark is such a magical place! I’ve done 2 different 72-hr fasts and I have noticed both time at that 48 hr mark, I feel alert, super happy, engaged, energized, and mentally clear. It’s pretty awesome!
I’m a fit athletic 63yr old until recently all things changed when I lost an adult son. The brokenness I feel, lose of drive and joy brought with it 10lbs and a sluggish sad body that put on 10 lbs growing me out of my jeans. Anyway My other sons rave about this fasting, so I gave it a try. I woke up elated and joyful like I haven’t felt in yrs. Lovely it comes on our 32 anniversary! Anyway they shared this video that explains the JOY - Awesome it is real! So grateful and now looking forward to living again. Do this-
I'm truly sorry for your loss. It's wonderful to hear that fasting has had a positive impact on your well-being and outlook. Remember to prioritize your mental and emotional health as well. Your journey to healing and well-being is unique, and it's great to see you embracing positive changes. If you have any questions or need guidance along the way, feel free to reach out. Wishing you continued strength and joy!
In 2005 I did a ten day water fast and I now understand that calm feeling I experienced. I remember lying in the bath knowing my fast was coming to an end, and I was feeling so incredible (I didn’t understand the biochemistry back then - I fasted for spiritual reasons) and I often think back to that time and how great I felt. Thank you for explaining this so well! You make fasting sound exciting!
Thank you! I'm 90 minutes away from finishing a 48 hour fast and came on here to see what you have to say about 48 hours to help me stay motivated to stick with it until the end. It's not hard, but I tire of not eating so I have to work at shifting my mental state to accept not having the entertainment of food.

Wow, I'm just starting a fast, and have decided to go 48 hours. This video was perfect timing. Just what needed. I struggle with mental health, and was hoping a longer fast would reset my brain, as well as my body, and give me some clarity. Thanks Mindy! ❤
I have finished 62 hours of fasting yesterday. Feeling refreshed, just went for a fast run. Thanks for all your Informations and motivation. Your work, mission is so worthy. ❤
Thank you for this clarification. I fasted by myself for 3 years before meeting you. I like 24h and 36h fasting for reparing (I am 48 years, premenstrual woman), but today you opened a new chaper. I understood the difference between dopamine and serotonin, and I never came back again . Tomorrow will be 48h of fasting: I need definitely to reach it! Thank you again
I am 71 years old I have fasted On and off throughout my life. When people guess my age they usually gyes 10 to 20 years younger. I am pretty strong and alert. I decided to do a 36 hour fast based on one of your videos and today I was looking for just information on what I can drink besides water. I came across this 48 hour fast. So 48 hours here I come. I have experienced tremendous benefits from fasting but didn't realize what was happening I want to thank you so much for keeping me educated, knowledgeable about the subject as you probably realize there are a lot of people who look down on it, but that doesn't matter to me I truly believe in fasting. Thank you doctor.
I fast for 2 to 3 days on average once or twice a month and it’s changed my life!!! Anxiety/depression is gone, my widespread body pain is gone, and I have energy out the wazoo! I keep trying to tell people about fasting! It’s life changing!
Love this!! (65 F, 30 lbs overweight) I planned to do a 36 hour fast then felt so good I fasted for 48 hours. This is much easier than I ever thought. I think the key I to stay busy!
I'm 77 i started ADF last Sundays today is Friday i stretched my fasting time each fast day first was 37 hours next was 40 hours next is 42.5. It is amazing to me how great I feel. Most my life was spent on diets lose some gain more. If only this could be part of a parenting course.
Dr. Pelz SO appreciate every video! I just got broke an 86 hour fast and the LMNT supplement was an absolute lifesaver all through out! I was having dental issues with a load of pain and inflammation and I have a 23 year long auto immune skin condition that acts like a barometer to let me know how much inflammation is in my body. I definitely felt the "furry", belly bloat, and major anxiety go down with the dental pain hoping that it might heal it in the long run. I just broke my fast today. The awesome thing was seeing that I was in ketosis the last couple of days so I knew I was burning through fat. Wow is that ever a wonderful feeling. It felt great to eat food again but I was very careful how I re-introduced anything into my system. Bone broth first and later a little protein, etc. I unfortunately had to cut it short as my father's birthday party is this weekend. Otherwise I was going to see if I could make it seven days. The other thing was I got my blood sugar fasting number down to 60 from the mid 90s ... I was stunned I could get it that low. Of course I was seeing around corners and had to be careful not to overdo it but electrolytes came to the rescue ... my blood pressure was 106/65 down from 120/ 78 to 138/80 on a regular basis. I barely noticed any hunger and with a post Covid lingering issue I've been having since March my brain became tact sharp and clear. I used this window of time to pray for friends who had lost their sons at middle age and to ask for some clarity in my business. The Lord always delivers when I'm fasting. Such an amazing time to hear from Him. My dentist noticed some inflammation above my gumline in my sinus cavity and it's hard to know if that's from the tooth issues I'm having with a possible crack they can't see on an x-ray or if it's a lingering issue with Covid and sinuses are causing the problem with my teeth. I've always enjoyed good dental health, so this has been new for me the last few years with menopause and issues that happen with the aging body and massive stress due to my business is booming. It's a good problem to have but the stress has really been taking a toll on my teeth from grinding. I noticed my sinuses began to drain within the first 24 hours as gross as that sounds but it sure was nice to be able to feel less of that brain fog and chronic pain that will drive you crazy. I also ordered your book and I have enjoyed every bit of the information you've given!! It keeps me motivated, and I have so learned to love fasting to keep things under control. I did a 76 hour fast last month also in an attempt to get vertigo and dental issues under control. Thank you again for all of your effort!!! I'm definitely feeling the difference and seeing the numbers move down on the scale!! I found fasting to be the best medicine there is especially done with prayer!
Wow 86hrs👏🏻👏🏻 Congrats and congrats on your weight loss and business' prosperity‼️ I pray that God will continue to heal your body and give you the strength to endure your pain. Have a great weekend
That's amazing! Congratulations! You're doing amazing for taking control of your health and healing. Keep going and know that you're living in a miraculous BODY. 💗👏👏
I am trying 48 8-72 hour fast right now. I started last night and I'm ready. I've done 26 hours and other shorter fasts but now I’m ready to move the needle. I don’t want to be stuck anymore. I’m positive that this has to work. I know that if I can do this, I know I can do anything else I want to do. I may not get it perfect but I’m going for it.
I am 68 and I just finished my 48 hours fast. The last 2 hours were horrible. I became obsessed with food. I tried to convince myself i started the fast an hour earlier, but I held my guns. Do not feel any different really, a bit tired, but I am sure it has cleansed my body. Many thanks. From Cyprus
I am new to your channel and I can’t thank you enough for this wonderful information. I’ve been fasting for years but I never did it for dietary reasons. It was for spiritual reasons only. Now that I’m looking to shock my system again- I’m fasting all month and will keep this in my workout/ diet plan. I did a 36 hour fast last week and ate one full day and I’m back to a 48 hour fast. I can’t tell you how amazing I feel. I am on hardly any food energy - and I have been dancing skipping singing in my kitchen and just want more!!. I am so happy and can’t get enough how I already look and feel. I Jumped roped for over 2 hrs yesterday. I do it 4/5 days a week and I just love it!!!! Thanks for these fasting tips. My body looks amazing I’ve dropped over 10 lbs in 2 weeks. I’m estatic.
@@naureenkhashwji8039 It might be because I was going high fat medium protein before that, I felt good ie not hungry at all. Feeling that way was why I decided to try a longer fast. My curiosity was centered around; ‘how would it feel to fast longer’ as well as, ‘how will I feel after’.
Thanks again. One thing which helps me a lot for “ IF “ is, doing various time plans. I do three days randomly 14/10, three days 16/8 and one day OMAD.
I’m writing the day after my 3 day long fast.. I feel amazing mentally and physically. I seem a lot more positive and energised, no more negative and depressive thoughts, can actually listen to my hunger cues, stop obsessing over food, focus on my tasks and just overall think clearly. I should do this more often omgggg
Amazing video and very inspiring and assuring too… I was down with throat infection, sinusitis, mouth ulcers and cold a couple of days back… and I did 48 hour fasting … steam inhalation and gargling for umpteen times… note I didn’t rely on any medication… and voila after my fast of 48 hours I had almost recovered … I actually had no plans of fasting initially but I wasn’t hungry at all for 2 days … that made to realise that we must listen to body when to eat and when not to 😊
I’ve been doing a 48 hour water fast every week for the last year and a half. I’m at a good weight (6 ft, 165 lbs) and I feel great. Definitely works for me.
I was over 220lbs before, now I am around 166lbs. I must say that eating too much is really not a good thing for human. I can now fast for 24 hours without any difficulty and feel no hunger at all. I also recently did a 60-hour fast. In the first 24 hours, I even did a 3km running in 30 minutes, then from 24th-48th hour, I did a grocery shopping. I felt a little hungry around 48th hour, but it passed quickly. When I was a fat guy, I often felt hungry and could not stop eating. When I started losing weight by controlling the amout of food I ate, at the very beginning, it took around 3 weeks to change energy source from food to fat, and during that 3 weeks, it was nightmare for me. After I got used to it, the next time I ate less after a few months, it only took about 10 days to change energy source. Now I can eat 2 meals a day everyday, then start a 24-hour fast at anytime, no difficulty at all. For a 48-hour fast, I need to sleep more and reduce physical activities. If you also want to do this kind of fast, make sure you do it step by step, do it slowly. It's a long term work, a life style change.We all have the ability of consuming our fat for energy, but as we ate too much before and almost never felt hungry, our bodies "forget" how to use our fat for energy. It takes some time for our bodyies to remember this ability.
That's amazing! Congratulations! You're doing amazing for taking control of your health and healing. Keep going and know that you're living in a miraculous BODY. 💗
Every time I’m do a 48 hour fast I complete it feeling amazing!!!! I have found that it helps to break a stall too. That you Dr Mindy for all you do!! I love your content!!!!! Such an amazing blessing!!
@@473mishkeso: only drink it black or don’t drink it. I always think along these lines: if I were stranded on an island or on a boat and had only ‘x’, where x is the coffee in this case, would I drink it black or go without? Your choice, your health. ‘Can’t’ can be very different from ‘don’t want to’. Good luck!
Always a good source of information. 48hr fast is my go to, recently I started doing 48hrs and it’s great,everything you mention applies for me as well. The mental clarity and mental health is why this is my favorite, it’s really cool (also the gut plays such a strong role for so many things, I’ve learned)
I do three 48 Hour fasts a week. I don't eat Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. This works with my schedule. I feel better and I sleep better!! I drink a high quality grape electrolyte with potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sodium. I drink unsweetened tea with lemon. I drink green tea sometimes. I do take some supplements and I have absolutely no problems. I also walk over an hour six days a week.
You might mean 36 hour fasts? 48 hrs is 2 days, so you would only be eating for one day? Or do separate your 48 hour fasts with 8 hours of eating - the math works on this one but you’d be eating during an 8 hour window, each one later than the last, and one in the middle of the night… 8A -4P, 4P - 12A, 12A - 8 AM
@@nancycy9039I eat OMAD four days a week and I don't eat anything except acceptable drinks on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I do eat, for the most part, healthy Keto when I do eat. I eat a lot of organic pasture raised eggs (like 4), grass fed hamburgers, bacon, broccoli sprouts, broccoli, sweet potatoes, etc.
@@goldenhoneybee8128No I mean three days a week (I'm not eating) I'm doing 46-48 hour fasts. I only eat OMAD within a two hour window when I do eat. I have been doing OMAD Intermittent Fasting since 2019. I decided to switch it up for my health physically, mentally, and anti-aging to add the 48 Hour fasts. I did a seven day water fast in 2017 before I had all this knowledge and it was not good. I did a seven day water fast last year. It went perfect. I plan on doing one this year when I get back from vacation. I've watched all Dr. Mindy Pelz and Dr. Eric Berg's videos since 2019. I love fasting. I love how it makes me feel. I literally feel better when I don't eat. On the days I do eat, I try to eat healthy Keto. I consume at least a dozen organic pasture raised eggs in a week, salmon, grass fed hamburgers, broccoli sprouts, salads, and sweet potatoes. I also enjoy macadamia Nuts and pecans. I eat about two Brazil nuts on the days I'm eating for selenium. I also take many natural high quality supplements such as vitamin D3 -K2, Trace Minerals, Nutritional Yeast, Magnesium, Cod Liver Oil, DIM, Tocotrienols (vitamin E), DHEA, Sea Kelp, and a multivitamin. This is what I have found that works for me and what my body needs.
Started doing a 48+ hour fast about 4 years ago. My body LOVES. Literally have pulled me away from being diabetic. I am 43 years old. I've had so many benefits as well as all that you have mentioned. Although I did re-fracture one of my metatarsal on my foot from doing deep lunges about a month ago on day two of fasting. This was an old injury. But like a boxing fracture...once you have. I feel the same for my foot. It was easier to break again. Plus a few friends thought maybe I was nutrient deficient. When I re-broke the metatarsal because I was on the tail end of a 48 hour fast. Usually my fasts go 48-56... Nonetheless, I love fasting. I feel aside from my injury only good things come from fasting. I love how the discipline it takes trickles down into other aspects of one's life. Thank you Mindy for your break downs. Cool factoids 🐾💯❤️
Thank you for this video!! It was very helpful in explaining the advantages of the 48 hour fast! I’ve done several before, but now will definitely put one in about once a month! ❤
@@DrMindyPelz Dr Pelz, your emphasis on hormones has been a great blessing to my wife and greatly increased my understanding of all things related. To say “thank you” seems trite. Words cannot express my gratitude!
This is an awesome demonstration of the different fasting times. I have done 24 hours easy enough a bunch of times and a 36 hour fast 3 times. I want to do a 48 hour fast soon. I hope I can succeed not eating that long.
I've done 2 of these now. The first was last summer, the last one led right up to Thanksgiving dinner. I weighed myself just before and after the Thanksgiving weekend. I actually LOST 2 lbs even after feasting. I'm guessing it's because of the increase in HGH as Mindy states in this video, which helps (significantly) with fat burning and also insulin sensitivity at that time as well. They are pretty amazing once you get past not eating that dinner meal 24 hrs since you last ate. For me I have to just finally go to bed early so I don't violate my entire kitchen lol. After that it's cake. Wake up the following morning with ZERO issues until I finally eat again that evening at dinner time. That said, I can't imagine doing these for any longer than 48 hrs but I also remember a time when I thought there is no way I could possibly do OMAD lol. I'll be 54 next month. Lost 40 lbs in 7 months last year. 99% of the time I do 18:6 2MAD.
I do my 72 hour fasting every month during the first 12 days of my periods. Currently on 72 hour fasting, completed 24 hours. It’s a kind of rebirth after completion of 72 hour reset fast. Thanks Dr. Mindy, I love your contents. God Bless you. Keep spreading the light.
@@AlisonLowery-em9vgI've just completed my 7 day water only fast, no supplements, only clean water. Been working out in the gym every single day for 2,5 hours. Fasting is easier when you are busy
I have experience with extended fasting since 2018. Up to 5 days every six weeks. When your body is not constantly digesting and metabolizing food, good things happen. Our ancestors did not eat every day. An extended fast takes a huge load off your liver and pancreas as well as promoting cell rejuvination (autophagy). The only thing I would recommend is entering the fast from a fed ketogenic state which means eating a real food ketogenic or carnivore diet. The benefits will begin quicker and it will much more pleasant. Do not extended fast to get into ketosis. It is not necessary.
I only did a 48-hour fast (twice) for the first time ever last month. I have to admit that I found each one challenging and I didn't feel happy/joyful. I felt quite numb, sad and 'flat', but extremely calm. Colours seemed brighter and my vision seemed much sharper. HOWEVER, I felt more buoyant in the days following the fasts (except for when PMS hit). I generally do 18-24-hour I.F. daily because it's more doable for me. My mood and energy are at their best at 17-22 hours of fasting.
This is my first time trying a 48hour fast and then are two things I wondered about; that might affect my results or the way I feel. 1) I have a cold/flu. In some ways I thought it might help - often hunger dissipates when I’m sick. I also wondered about the power of the body to self-heal 2) I wasn’t sure if there was a correct time of my cycle to do the 48hr specifically. Aside from the week before a period of course I’ll look forward to trying this again in different circumstances as well. I’m loving Dr Mindys videos, she’s incredibly inspiring. Thank you so much for the knowledge you and your team are sharing ✨👌🏻
Your amazingly intelligent body will heal, when in doubt, fast it out is one of Dr Mindy's sayings. If fasting according to your cycle this length of fast would fit in your power phase. Cheering you on!! 🎉🙌 💙 Dr Mindy's Team
Omg good stuff…luved the way you explained it….I did an 86 hour AND swear I got so much energy/depression is gone /brain fog etc…dopamine you nailed soooo true…new follower…have a great day
10 hours to complete my 3 day water fast and frankly from 48 hours it gets more challenging but the experience is so far satisfying. The clarity in mind and how I'm getting things done makes me wanna stay here a bit longer 😊
I ❤ these videos! These are a shot of inspiration to keep going :). Currently at 37 hours of a planned 72+ hour fast. Just water, black coffee and salt (if needed). I really appreciate the FLAG recommendations for fasting. Fasting at the end of the cycle is futile! Now it completely makes sense. I gave myself grace during that time knowing at the start of the next cycle I’d do a reset and here I am:). Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Dr. Mindy, Could you please do a video on the topic of “is there such thing “as too much of autophagy” (time wise) and if there is what happens to our body. I am a big fan of yours, your videos are awesome and I am learning so much. Thank you!
1. Do we drink water when we do 48 hours fast? How much should we drink? 2. Can mix a drink including extra virgin coconut oil, sesame oil, olive oil with apple cider vinegar, turmeric, cinnamon and lotus powder during long fasting? 3. What supplements should we take during such long fasting to prevent losing minerals and muscle? 4. What should we prepare before go 48 hours fasting? 5. What foods should we prepare for breaking fast? 6. Should we workout during 48hours fast?
1. Yes, staying hydrated is essential during a 48-hour fast. Aim to drink at least 8-10 cups (64-80 ounces) of water throughout the day. 2. Mixing those ingredients during a long fast might not be ideal as it could potentially disrupt the fasting process. Stick to water, herbal tea, or black coffee during your fast. 3. While fasting, consider electrolyte supplements or consuming a pinch of high-quality salt (like pink Himalayan salt) to maintain mineral balance. Protein supplements can help preserve muscle mass but should be taken carefully. 4. Before a 48-hour fast, mentally prepare yourself, stay hydrated, and ensure you have a plan for breaking the fast. 5. Prepare easily digestible foods for breaking your fast, like bone broth, a small salad, or lean protein. 6. Light exercise like walking or yoga is generally fine during a 48-hour fast, but listen to your body and adjust your activity level as needed. Avoid strenuous workouts.
Great video. I’ve just starting fasting this week 16/8. Before I was coming in from work binging on food, and today I’ve going 19 hrs with out food and I’ve completely lost my appetite 😂. Dropped 5lbs in 4 days. Tbh I feel great I’m definitely sticking to it, just shows you all this rubbish about breakfast being the most important meal of the day
Right there with you! I was a snacker! If I was up and hungry, no matter the time, I was gonna eat something. My first night of IF was a comedy reel. I literally had to tell myself EVERY five minutes, 'no, you're not eating right now...' 😅 Now it is a breeze to eat within a window, have even done a 72hr fast late August. Been working with this for months and really getting into the groove that works for me 👍🏼 thanks be to Dr. Mindy!!! 💚🙌🏽
Thank you for reinforcing what I thought was my own unique conceptions of how my body was repairing my mind when I was denying myself the toxicity of food intakes! This is a personal challenge and satisfaction builder. This evidence is new to me, but the concept was born in the bad old days of incarceration. This is food for the brain, in and off itself. Better than the over indulgences of food for the gut, which is not as good as the food here, for the brain. Self discipline is also better built with such information! Thank you for helping me grow my perspectives.
I love your work, I came across you a month ago and I'm obsessed haha! I've been following along, sharing and trying some of the fasts with great results! I just purchased your book and can't wait to read it! Thank you for all you do! Lots of love 🫶
Almost completed your book. So much information to process. For those who are Indian (Asian), our meals include rotis (chapatis). In order for them to be healthi(er) I mix in ragi flour, whole wheat flour, bajra flour, tofu, spinach, lentils, chillis, spinach, ginger - basically make a meal in one chapati. The kids love it. And my grandparents and their grandparents had it for every meal - and both lived a very long lively life! But now I’ve been questioning what I am making and it’s not feeling too good. Is whole wheat flour a complete no no? Any links as to what flour I should use, if any. Or is it ok if I carry on with what I am doing? It’s been hard to navigate this terrain especially living in the US but having to cook Indian foods (which i find a little more nutritious). I finished my 48 hour fast and it felt good. I ll do another one after my ovulation days.
Very helpful and very interesting! Thank you 🙏🏻 I was also wondering what's happening in between. For example, I just fasted for 42 hours (was going for the 36, and then I've extended a bit). Is it gradual or only when you get to the 48 threshold?
Thank you Mindy for explaining dopamine and serotonin in a way that I actually understand. I did the 72 hr fast and at 48 hrs I felt happy, I was content and I was telling myself YEAH let’s go, only 24 left , I can do this, I was on the resetters Facebook page like a keyboard warrior encouraging others to keep going, they’ve got this etc. Now I understand why I was so motivated 😂😂 Finding you has been the best thing. I have Fast like a girl audiobook but I’m buying several hard copies to hand out to my female compadres. They really need this too.
I just finished a 48 hour dry fast, no water or food for 48hrs. The first day is always the toughest. It's mind over matter. The longest dry fast I've done was five days. Dry fasting one day is the equivalent of water feasting for two days.
Hi I have just finished my first 48 hour fast . I feel great. I cant believe I managed it. I feel great . I believe I can change my life and improve my health thank you so much.
I'm on 24hrs now. I feel hungry and so tempted to eat but not really hungry. I've been feeling sh*tty, gaining weight, swollen-definitely retaining water, and unmotivated 5 days ago-premenstrual. Miserable and uncomfortable. I've been more active swimming 2x/wk, hot yoga, pilates but I do not understand the weight gain (belly fat) and the PMS. I'm 42 and my cycle has gotten steady but experiencing a lot of hormonal changes during the different stages of my cycle. Been eating healthier food. So I hope this 48hrs will help. It's been a rollercoaster feeling the past year.
It sounds like you're experiencing significant hormonal fluctuations that can impact your weight and mood, especially premenstrually. Increased physical activity and healthier eating are great steps. The 48-hour fast may help reset some aspects, but considering your symptoms, consulting with a healthcare provider about your hormonal changes and their effects could offer more targeted solutions.
I feel much better since I do intermitent fasting (3 months),but I didn't lost 1 gram. I do 24 ,, 36 or 48 hours. I have 1 kg more . I don't understand. Please help! I do believe in fasting, but why didn't work for me to lose weight? Thank you!
Try strict Carnivore with compressed eating window for 30 days. I did this and lost 52 pounds in 3 months. I had always been very lean but at 45 slowly started gaining weight despite being grain free, sugar free, organic, etc. the normal keto diet was not working. Carnivore changed it all. I am 51, 5’2”, 118 very ripped pounds and I put the 20 year olds to shame at the gym. They all ask for advice( I was very into bodybuilding in my 20s and 30s so I had a good base to start with). Now I do OMAD 3 days a week, 17-20 hour fasts 3 days a week, and one day of 13 hour fast. I have expanded the carnivore diet to add avocados, occasional sweet potatoes, berries, raw dairy products, and have maintained this weight for a year. Salad used to be my favorite meal, now it’s my cheat meal and always bloats me like a puffer fish!
@pamn9220 thanks for answering! I start today carnivore, but I miss the fruits. I use to eat 1 meal of fruits and one meal of meat with , cheese or eggs with vegetables ( usually 1 tomato). Thanks again!
@@vivianaviv5860 good for you! You can do it! There is always an answer, you just have to keep digging until you find what works for you. You will get the fruit back eventually you may just have to watch the quantities.

He explained that 25% of the population is predisposed to diabetes, genetically, and those people produce twice as much insulin as the rest of the population. I am one of those people which means I will never have the same flexibility with carbs.I always keep them low. You could be part of the 25% too, and maybe it’s the fruit shooting you in the foot. Best to you! I love to see so many amazing women fighting back against the notion that we must let go of our health as we age.
If you can do 48 hours its best to do 60. By going to bed and getting more fasting hours when you're sleeping ...If you can sleep lol because your energy levels as I've found are off the charts...lol
You people must be fat and overweight because at 48 hours I was so lethargic and feeling sick that I had no choice but to eat something or I would have fainted.
I just finished my first 96 hour ( 5 day ) water fast! Words cannot express how amazing this was! Will do 48 hour fasts every two weeks, along with IF ( 16 hours ) every day! Here's to our optimum health and longevity, everybody!!
23 hrs to go... current longest was a 36 hour fast and felt great after that so looking forward to the 48 hr for the benifits it may have on my A.D.H.D 😊
What if you’re at around 17-18 hours and experience tons of anxiety instead? What would that be from? I had a hell of a time yesterday after around 18 hours up until 20 hours where I had huge amounts of anxiety.
You need Electrolytes badly. Listen to The Resetter Podcast interviews with Rob Wolf of LMNT Electrolytes and he explains why these symptoms occur. When. You fast or go low carb your body release sodium and potassium from your system in urine. We must replace them or you will feel awful.

Dr. Mindy Peiz keep doing what you're doing with sending out these important facts. You are helping so many of us, including myself. Super thank you for this video as it is exactly what I needed to hear.
I do alternate day fasting every week and do 48 hour fasting 2 to 3 times per month makes a huge difference. Eliminates cravings, crashes and weight management
Great information! This video was so helpful and encouraging for me to gradually get up to a 48 hour fast. I do 17 hours typically four days a week and try a 36 hour fast one day a week so I feel like I’m on the road to the 48 hour!
Thank you so much Dr. Mindy. I follow and practice a lot of health advice. Yours is the most exciting I've seen in a long time. Definitely going to implement this!
I did a 60 hour fast. It was supposed to be 48 but my day took a crazy turn and didn’t ge time to make eggs!I felt wonderful. Had so much energy. My colleague asked me why I am so happy?😂
I'm starting 36 hours weekly this weekend. In the past, I've done a lot of 60 which I concluded that it's too long. 48 is the sweet spot but it is still long. 36 is even better.
Thank you Dr Mindy, I really really needed a video with this content at this time. Love you, love your book and what you're doing. I'm taking it slowly to make sure I properly understand your teachings and implement implement them correctly but I already see improvements after 2 weeks.
Thank you!!! I've been learning a lot about dopamine lately, but the insight on serotonin in this video was SO Helpful!! I absolutely need a serotonin reset! I see a 24 hr fast in my future! 🎉
The purpose of the extra dopamine receptors is to make you feel a greater sense of "joy", or pleasure, when you eat again, so that you will enjoy food more, crave food more, and be driven to seek food. It is a survival mechanism from times when food was hard to find.
Last week I drank 2 beers in day and I drank a coke another day .... these were 2 days in a roll. I got stuck I was doing 17&18&20 hour fast nothing was happening and I was hungry some days .... I did a 37 hour and it reset me ... not hungry, list more weight finally. Amazing what you have taught me
I’ve been aiming at 24 hours for 7 months, never made it past 20/21 but yesterday I did it! Then went to bed and now I’m on 36 - feel amazing! Thanks dr mindy
I’m going on 60 hours at the moment. I am at 6.8 GKI, .7 ketones at the moment , strange for me, I have been fasting over a decade, 2 years intermittently consistently. I never knew how exactly I was able to drop over 100 pounds 4 different times, using data that is. Now I’m 48, male, and this last fast I was surprised my ketones were so low. Last week I did 48 hours and was at 2.7 GKI and 1.4 ketones. I never measured ketones and glucose, so just learning the data aspect, I guess I didn’t realize the importance of breaking fasts properly.
Hi Y'all. Trust you are well. I see a total of 583 comments. I wish you all well. I need some advice here. Diagnosed with an auto-immune condition a year ago ( I work in Tech Sales). Tried all types of medications, it subsides n Reoccur. I saw Dr Mindy's "Think like a CEO" TH-cam episode and I thought I will give it a try. I am new to Autophagy. I've been doing 16:8 , OMAD (rotate) for couple of months now. But, I feel like loosing my muscle mass and energy and stamina, esp lifting weights (10-15kg) even doing in moderation. In the past, by simply cutting sugar, dairy and carbs, I've had amazing weight loss results. But, this time, it's a bio hack n not just loosing weight. I want to try 24 & 36 hour fast, but once I cross the 18 hour threshold, my body is giving up. I simply consume water n nothing else during my IF (scared if my blood sugar wil rise). Thanks in advance
Decided to go on a fast August 31st 8pm, now heading into 40 hours. weight loss and health benefits, miserable and in pain all over injured knee screaming and surgery areas painful, i give up ! so i decided to do this. 57 on September 9th anticipating great results, water and lemon, apple cider vinegar, green tea herbal teas. trying to fast as long as i can. fasted 3 weeks once did great. but ate rubbish eventually lost momentum.
I'm now 12hrs away from my 48hrs fast. Experienced nasal congestion and severe headache after 12hrs but gone away after 24hrs and feeling better but still experiencing bloating ,gas and constipation. Still gurgling inside my lower abdomen but hopefully will get better soon.

I finished my first 36 hour fast a couple of days ago. I actually went about 31 hours. My blood sugar was usually floating between 70-90 and ketones 7. However on the last day my ketones were hitting 20 and my keto mojo meter warned it was high. That was my motivation to shorten the fast. I never hear a discussion about safe limits during a long fast. Any takers?
I'm 52 .I had a heart attack , my fiancé died, and then I became guardian of my 3 - and 5 year old granddaughters. This caused me to lose my full-time job and become PRN. needless to say, I was in a deep depression along with severe panic attacks. I came across you on TH-cam, bought your book, and gave it a shot. I lost 15 lbs on the reset the 9 lbs the week after on a 72-hour fast. I noticed my skin was no longer dry. I'm off all depression and anxiety meds. Even though everything is still hard, I'm happy. I can see my blessings now, and I know I'm not gonna drown. I know now why fasting was always part of God's plan . Thank you.
You are amazing what you are doing for your granddaughters. I am so glad the fasting is improving your life for the better.
Awesome. Thats fantastic.
You're an amazing woman! I'm really happy for you.
Sending love and support your way. Thanks for sharing your story and experience with us. ❤
Praise God! May He continue to guide and strengthen you in all you do.
I am 55 and feel like I am in my 20s from doing a year of different fasting! Lost 60 pounds and no longer a diabetic and my joints feel brand new
that is incredible!! I started fasting a few months ago, I'm 48. Do you think it's sustainable?
@mrsbootsworkouts - I'm 43. I started different forms of fasting about this time, last year. I'll typically just skip breakfast on most days. I also try to get at least 2 weight-lift sessions in, per week... and started to take several supplements based on how I had been feeling. 30 pounds, down... and I find it's pretty easy to maintain. Check out Dr. Berg, here on TH-cam. He covers just about everything with fasting and supplements.
@@DerisedEgami - thank you for the inspiration, it sounds amazing! I have been doing 1 or 2 36 hour fasts per week, and my weight fluctuates plus minus several pounds within a week. I will check him out, keep doing the amazing work, thank you!
@@mrsbootsworkouts - Awesome. The one thing that comes to mind is he cautions to use fasting as a "shock". Too much fasting, and the body actually becomes efficient at using less calories.... and it thus becomes a little more difficult to lose weight. I think I'm trying to pull out of this, currently. Good luck!
wow! that sounds amazing! congrats
Just finished a 48 hr fast tonight. I do this about every other month. I normally do a 24 hr fast each Monday. Really knocks down inflammation.
Yay! Really amazing! Our bodies are a miracle 🙌
I struggled with grief and addiction. I read Jesus’ advice to fast, found Mindy, did two consecutive 48 hour fasts with a day of vegetable broth in between and received the Holy Spirit. Sacrifice your life and you shall gain it! 🙌🏻
💙
Amen ❤
I love the timing of this. I’m about 3 hours away from finishing my first 48 hour fast. Thank you!
How are you feeling? I can’t seem to get past 20 hours. I became a monster on the hunt for food 😢
Awesome! I've only fasted 24hrs in my whole life and that was because I was literally going non stop🙃 I need to push myself
@@naureenkhashwji8039 feeling so good. I was crashing yesterday but I had glass of water with some added minerals and a bit of sea salt and I felt like a new person. Started getting a headache last night but I took some activated charcoal and lots of water and am totally fine ever since. Lots of energy. Feel like I could go longer but I’m having company for dinner tonight lol so I’ll eat at noon like planned.
Did you suffer with a headache? I did 38hr but my head was pounding.
Congrats! I just finished a 36 hour fast.. I’ll try the 48 hour fast at the end of next week!
This is my first 48 hour fast. I’m on hour 21 and I’m already struggling. Watching these videos to try and motivate me to stay at it.
I did my firs 24hrs today, was not so difficult cause I was used to do 18hrs. So take it easy, you'll get there.
2nd one is easier. Im on hour 37 second time and its wicked easy. The first step is always the hardest.
I m on my 72 hours one and have about 6 hours left I have done it many times and after 2 times or 3 it just becomes sooo easy I sometimes don’t eat even for 5 days and I work in construction site so all my job is physical
Same now I am pass through 40 hours 6 hours to go.. not feeling great but I want to complete this
I do 36 hrs weekly but now I am on 40 hours no food and I decided to do another 8 hrs
That 48 hour mark is such a magical place! I’ve done 2 different 72-hr fasts and I have noticed both time at that 48 hr mark, I feel alert, super happy, engaged, energized, and mentally clear. It’s pretty awesome!
🙌
Yes same here. I take it out for another day before breaking as afraid I may be starving myself.
Me too. But I can't sleep.
no food at all but still drinking water right ?
Still drinking water
I’m a fit athletic 63yr old until recently all things changed when I lost an adult son. The brokenness I feel, lose of drive and joy brought with it 10lbs and a sluggish sad body that put on 10 lbs growing me out of my jeans. Anyway My other sons rave about this fasting, so I gave it a try. I woke up elated and joyful like I haven’t felt in yrs. Lovely it comes on our 32 anniversary! Anyway they shared this video that explains the JOY - Awesome it is real! So grateful and now looking forward to living again. Do this-
I'm truly sorry for your loss. It's wonderful to hear that fasting has had a positive impact on your well-being and outlook. Remember to prioritize your mental and emotional health as well. Your journey to healing and well-being is unique, and it's great to see you embracing positive changes. If you have any questions or need guidance along the way, feel free to reach out. Wishing you continued strength and joy!
Oh I’m so sorry for your loss. That is a very difficult hit. 😢
So very sorry about your loss… the worst loss is a loss of your child 😢
God that’s sad. Sorry for your loss.😭
❤
In 2005 I did a ten day water fast and I now understand that calm feeling I experienced. I remember lying in the bath knowing my fast was coming to an end, and I was feeling so incredible (I didn’t understand the biochemistry back then - I fasted for spiritual reasons) and I often think back to that time and how great I felt. Thank you for explaining this so well! You make fasting sound exciting!
🙌 It is exciting LOL 😁
"I remember lying in the bath knowing my fast was coming to an end" hahaha! thats really funny. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Praise god 🙏🏻
Thank you! I'm 90 minutes away from finishing a 48 hour fast and came on here to see what you have to say about 48 hours to help me stay motivated to stick with it until the end. It's not hard, but I tire of not eating so I have to work at shifting my mental state to accept not having the entertainment of food.
AMAZING!! Way to go!!
I’m on a 72 hour fast and it’s taught me an important lesson: that I eat to cure boredom often! I don’t NEED the food…it’s transformative!

Thanks!!!!! 😀
After your 48 hour fast. What did you eat or drink to break your fast?
@@AlisonLowery-em9vg , thai noodles with beef and shrimp. perhaps, the worst choice!
Wow, I'm just starting a fast, and have decided to go 48 hours. This video was perfect timing. Just what needed. I struggle with mental health, and was hoping a longer fast would reset my brain, as well as my body, and give me some clarity. Thanks Mindy! ❤
💙
@@DrMindyPelz can't thank you enough for all the best advice. 🥰🙏
Going into that 19th hour is great, and going into the 2nd day is deep. You realize nothing really matters except your perception of it. Good stuff!!
that's deep
I have finished 62 hours of fasting yesterday. Feeling refreshed, just went for a fast run. Thanks for all your Informations and motivation. Your work, mission is so worthy. ❤
🙌
Quit showing off, I just finished a one hour fast 😂😂😂😂
Thank you for this clarification. I fasted by myself for 3 years before meeting you. I like 24h and 36h fasting for reparing (I am 48 years, premenstrual woman), but today you opened a new chaper. I understood the difference between dopamine and serotonin, and I never came back again . Tomorrow will be 48h of fasting: I need definitely to reach it!
Thank you again
Is it difficult? You mean that for two days you eat and drink nothing???
Wow, you fasted for 3 years! I bet that first meal tasted good!
@@mikiellis1302a water fast
Wow that's one long fast😉
I am 71 years old I have fasted On and off throughout my life. When people guess my age they usually gyes 10 to 20 years younger. I am pretty strong and alert.
I decided to do a 36 hour fast based on one of your videos and today I was looking for just information on what I can drink besides water. I came across this 48 hour fast. So 48 hours here I come. I have experienced tremendous benefits from fasting but didn't realize what was happening I want to thank you so much for keeping me educated, knowledgeable about the subject as you probably realize there are a lot of people who look down on it, but that doesn't matter to me I truly believe in fasting. Thank you doctor.
👏👏❤️
I fast for 2 to 3 days on average once or twice a month and it’s changed my life!!! Anxiety/depression is gone, my widespread body pain is gone, and I have energy out the wazoo! I keep trying to tell people about fasting! It’s life changing!
Incredible! 🙌
I do this once a month. It feels so much better after completion!
Love this!! (65 F, 30 lbs overweight) I planned to do a 36 hour fast then felt so good I fasted for 48 hours. This is much easier than I ever thought. I think the key I to stay busy!
What is your timetable with your fasts like how often and how long please
"Here's why it works", "Let me explain myself"... Love your presentation style!
🙌💚
I'm 77 i started ADF last Sundays today is Friday i stretched my fasting time each fast day first was 37 hours next was 40 hours next is 42.5. It is amazing to me how great I feel. Most my life was spent on diets lose some gain more. If only this could be part of a parenting course.
Dr. Pelz SO appreciate every video! I just got broke an 86 hour fast and the LMNT supplement was an absolute lifesaver all through out! I was having dental issues with a load of pain and inflammation and I have a 23 year long auto immune skin condition that acts like a barometer to let me know how much inflammation is in my body. I definitely felt the "furry", belly bloat, and major anxiety go down with the dental pain hoping that it might heal it in the long run. I just broke my fast today. The awesome thing was seeing that I was in ketosis the last couple of days so I knew I was burning through fat. Wow is that ever a wonderful feeling. It felt great to eat food again but I was very careful how I re-introduced anything into my system. Bone broth first and later a little protein, etc. I unfortunately had to cut it short as my father's birthday party is this weekend. Otherwise I was going to see if I could make it seven days. The other thing was I got my blood sugar fasting number down to 60 from the mid 90s ... I was stunned I could get it that low. Of course I was seeing around corners and had to be careful not to overdo it but electrolytes came to the rescue ... my blood pressure was 106/65 down from 120/ 78 to 138/80 on a regular basis. I barely noticed any hunger and with a post Covid lingering issue I've been having since March my brain became tact sharp and clear. I used this window of time to pray for friends who had lost their sons at middle age and to ask for some clarity in my business. The Lord always delivers when I'm fasting. Such an amazing time to hear from Him. My dentist noticed some inflammation above my gumline in my sinus cavity and it's hard to know if that's from the tooth issues I'm having with a possible crack they can't see on an x-ray or if it's a lingering issue with Covid and sinuses are causing the problem with my teeth. I've always enjoyed good dental health, so this has been new for me the last few years with menopause and issues that happen with the aging body and massive stress due to my business is booming. It's a good problem to have but the stress has really been taking a toll on my teeth from grinding. I noticed my sinuses began to drain within the first 24 hours as gross as that sounds but it sure was nice to be able to feel less of that brain fog and chronic pain that will drive you crazy. I also ordered your book and I have enjoyed every bit of the information you've given!! It keeps me motivated, and I have so learned to love fasting to keep things under control. I did a 76 hour fast last month also in an attempt to get vertigo and dental issues under control. Thank you again for all of your effort!!! I'm definitely feeling the difference and seeing the numbers move down on the scale!! I found fasting to be the best medicine there is especially done with prayer!
Wow 86hrs👏🏻👏🏻 Congrats and congrats on your weight loss and business' prosperity‼️ I pray that God will continue to heal your body and give you the strength to endure your pain. Have a great weekend
That's amazing! Congratulations! You're doing amazing for taking control of your health and healing. Keep going and know that you're living in a miraculous BODY. 💗👏👏
@@DrMindyPelz Psalm 139:14 ...in an awe-inspiring way I am wonderfully made.
Love your book. Just finished a 48hr fast and the first 24 hours I was doing a night shift driving heavy machinery. Thank you for your work!❤
I am trying 48 8-72 hour fast right now. I started last night and I'm ready. I've done 26 hours and other shorter fasts but now I’m ready to move the needle. I don’t want to be stuck anymore. I’m positive that this has to work. I know that if I can do this, I know I can do anything else I want to do. I may not get it perfect but I’m going for it.
💪
The first 24 hours is the hardest. Once you get into the second day it’s smooth sailing
I am 68 and I just finished my 48 hours fast. The last 2 hours were horrible. I became obsessed with food. I tried to convince myself i started the fast an hour earlier, but I held my guns. Do not feel any different really, a bit tired, but I am sure it has cleansed my body. Many thanks. From Cyprus
Reduce your carbs n sugar drastically...n that feeling n craving for food wd vanish
Many thanks@@henrykorley8486
I am new to your channel and I can’t thank you enough for this wonderful information. I’ve been fasting for years but I never did it for dietary reasons. It was for spiritual reasons only. Now that I’m looking to shock my system again- I’m fasting all month and will keep this in my workout/ diet plan. I did a 36 hour fast last week and ate one full day and I’m back to a 48 hour fast. I can’t tell you how amazing I feel. I am on hardly any food energy - and I have been dancing skipping singing in my kitchen and just want more!!. I am so happy and can’t get enough how I already look and feel. I Jumped roped for over 2 hrs yesterday. I do it 4/5 days a week and I just love it!!!! Thanks for these fasting tips. My body looks amazing I’ve dropped over 10 lbs in 2 weeks. I’m estatic.
Thanks for laying it out! Finished a 48 hr fast earlier this week 😁
🙌👏👏
How did you feel during the fast? I can’t get past 20 hours I get so hungry.
@@naureenkhashwji8039 It might be because I was going high fat medium protein before that, I felt good ie not hungry at all. Feeling that way was why I decided to try a longer fast. My curiosity was centered around; ‘how would it feel to fast longer’ as well as, ‘how will I feel after’.
Thanks again. One thing which helps me a lot for “ IF “ is, doing various time plans. I do three days randomly 14/10, three days 16/8 and one day OMAD.
I’m writing the day after my 3 day long fast.. I feel amazing mentally and physically. I seem a lot more positive and energised, no more negative and depressive thoughts, can actually listen to my hunger cues, stop obsessing over food, focus on my tasks and just overall think clearly. I should do this more often omgggg
Amazing video and very inspiring and assuring too… I was down with throat infection, sinusitis, mouth ulcers and cold a couple of days back… and I did 48 hour fasting … steam inhalation and gargling for umpteen times… note I didn’t rely on any medication… and voila after my fast of 48 hours I had almost recovered … I actually had no plans of fasting initially but I wasn’t hungry at all for 2 days … that made to realise that we must listen to body when to eat and when not to 😊
🙌👏👏
I’ve been doing a 48 hour water fast every week for the last year and a half. I’m at a good weight (6 ft, 165 lbs) and I feel great. Definitely works for me.
I just came off a 48 hour fast yesterday and I can say it’s the most content and peaceful I’ve felt in a while.
So awesome- thank you for sharing! 💙
Trying my first 48 hr fast now! Thanks for sharing all your knowledge Dr. Mindy.
Go Marge go!!! 🙌
I was over 220lbs before, now I am around 166lbs. I must say that eating too much is really not a good thing for human. I can now fast for 24 hours without any difficulty and feel no hunger at all. I also recently did a 60-hour fast. In the first 24 hours, I even did a 3km running in 30 minutes, then from 24th-48th hour, I did a grocery shopping. I felt a little hungry around 48th hour, but it passed quickly. When I was a fat guy, I often felt hungry and could not stop eating. When I started losing weight by controlling the amout of food I ate, at the very beginning, it took around 3 weeks to change energy source from food to fat, and during that 3 weeks, it was nightmare for me. After I got used to it, the next time I ate less after a few months, it only took about 10 days to change energy source. Now I can eat 2 meals a day everyday, then start a 24-hour fast at anytime, no difficulty at all. For a 48-hour fast, I need to sleep more and reduce physical activities.
If you also want to do this kind of fast, make sure you do it step by step, do it slowly. It's a long term work, a life style change.We all have the ability of consuming our fat for energy, but as we ate too much before and almost never felt hungry, our bodies "forget" how to use our fat for energy. It takes some time for our bodyies to remember this ability.
That's amazing! Congratulations! You're doing amazing for taking control of your health and healing. Keep going and know that you're living in a miraculous BODY. 💗
Hi DR mindy I'm going a 48 hour feel ok. I have had alot of depression so I hope this will be good for me .

@@473mishkeso: only drink it black or don’t drink it. I always think along these lines: if I were stranded on an island or on a boat and had only ‘x’, where x is the coffee in this case, would I drink it black or go without?

Always a good source of information. 48hr fast is my go to, recently I started doing 48hrs and it’s great,everything you mention applies for me as well. The mental clarity and mental health is why this is my favorite, it’s really cool (also the gut plays such a strong role for so many things, I’ve learned)
Totally - gets rid of anxiety and depression
I do three 48 Hour fasts a week. I don't eat Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. This works with my schedule. I feel better and I sleep better!! I drink a high quality grape electrolyte with potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sodium. I drink unsweetened tea with lemon. I drink green tea sometimes. I do take some supplements and I have absolutely no problems. I also walk over an hour six days a week.
Do you mean 24 hour fasts?
🙌
You might mean 36 hour fasts? 48 hrs is 2 days, so you would only be eating for one day? Or do separate your 48 hour fasts with 8 hours of eating - the math works on this one but you’d be eating during an 8 hour window, each one later than the last, and one in the middle of the night… 8A -4P, 4P - 12A, 12A - 8 AM
@@nancycy9039I eat OMAD four days a week and I don't eat anything except acceptable drinks on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I do eat, for the most part, healthy Keto when I do eat. I eat a lot of organic pasture raised eggs (like 4), grass fed hamburgers, bacon, broccoli sprouts, broccoli, sweet potatoes, etc.
@@goldenhoneybee8128No I mean three days a week (I'm not eating) I'm doing 46-48 hour fasts. I only eat OMAD within a two hour window when I do eat. I have been doing OMAD Intermittent Fasting since 2019. I decided to switch it up for my health physically, mentally, and anti-aging to add the 48 Hour fasts.
I did a seven day water fast in 2017 before I had all this knowledge and it was not good. I did a seven day water fast last year. It went perfect. I plan on doing one this year when I get back from vacation.
I've watched all Dr. Mindy Pelz and Dr. Eric Berg's videos since 2019. I love fasting. I love how it makes me feel. I literally feel better when I don't eat. On the days I do eat, I try to eat healthy Keto. I consume at least a dozen organic pasture raised eggs in a week, salmon, grass fed hamburgers, broccoli sprouts, salads, and sweet potatoes. I also enjoy macadamia Nuts and pecans. I eat about two Brazil nuts on the days I'm eating for selenium. I also take many natural high quality supplements such as vitamin D3 -K2, Trace Minerals, Nutritional Yeast, Magnesium, Cod Liver Oil, DIM, Tocotrienols (vitamin E), DHEA, Sea Kelp, and a multivitamin. This is what I have found that works for me and what my body needs.
Started doing a 48+ hour fast about 4 years ago. My body LOVES. Literally have pulled me away from being diabetic. I am 43 years old. I've had so many benefits as well as all that you have mentioned. Although I did re-fracture one of my metatarsal on my foot from doing deep lunges about a month ago on day two of fasting. This was an old injury. But like a boxing fracture...once you have. I feel the same for my foot. It was easier to break again. Plus a few friends thought maybe I was nutrient deficient. When I re-broke the metatarsal because I was on the tail end of a 48 hour fast. Usually my fasts go 48-56...
Nonetheless, I love fasting. I feel aside from my injury only good things come from fasting. I love how the discipline it takes trickles down into other aspects of one's life. Thank you Mindy for your break downs. Cool factoids 🐾💯❤️
Thank you for this video!! It was very helpful in explaining the advantages of the 48 hour fast! I’ve done several before, but now will definitely put one in about once a month! ❤
This is a blessing! I was diagnosed with concussion. Thinking that going on a fast will help.
Google Dr Boz and her work on ketogenic diet and brain healing

@@DrMindyPelz Dr Pelz, your emphasis on hormones has been a great blessing to my wife and greatly increased my understanding of all things related. To say “thank you” seems trite. Words cannot express my gratitude!

This is an awesome demonstration of the different fasting times. I have done 24 hours easy enough a bunch of times and a 36 hour fast 3 times. I want to do a 48 hour fast soon. I hope I can succeed not eating that long.
I've done 2 of these now. The first was last summer, the last one led right up to Thanksgiving dinner. I weighed myself just before and after the Thanksgiving weekend. I actually LOST 2 lbs even after feasting. I'm guessing it's because of the increase in HGH as Mindy states in this video, which helps (significantly) with fat burning and also insulin sensitivity at that time as well.
They are pretty amazing once you get past not eating that dinner meal 24 hrs since you last ate. For me I have to just finally go to bed early so I don't violate my entire kitchen lol. After that it's cake. Wake up the following morning with ZERO issues until I finally eat again that evening at dinner time. That said, I can't imagine doing these for any longer than 48 hrs but I also remember a time when I thought there is no way I could possibly do OMAD lol. I'll be 54 next month. Lost 40 lbs in 7 months last year. 99% of the time I do 18:6 2MAD.
I do my 72 hour fasting every month during the first 12 days of my periods. Currently on 72 hour fasting, completed 24 hours. It’s a kind of rebirth after completion of 72 hour reset fast.
Thanks Dr. Mindy, I love your contents. God Bless you. Keep spreading the light.
🙌💙
When you did your 72 hour fast. Did you still go to work & keep busy or did you need to rest
@@AlisonLowery-em9vgI've just completed my 7 day water only fast, no supplements, only clean water. Been working out in the gym every single day for 2,5 hours. Fasting is easier when you are busy
I have experience with extended fasting since 2018. Up to 5 days every six weeks. When your body is not constantly digesting and metabolizing food, good things happen. Our ancestors did not eat every day. An extended fast takes a huge load off your liver and pancreas as well as promoting cell rejuvination (autophagy).
The only thing I would recommend is entering the fast from a fed ketogenic state which means eating a real food ketogenic or carnivore diet. The benefits will begin quicker and it will much more pleasant. Do not extended fast to get into ketosis. It is not necessary.
I only did a 48-hour fast (twice) for the first time ever last month. I have to admit that I found each one challenging and I didn't feel happy/joyful. I felt quite numb, sad and 'flat', but extremely calm. Colours seemed brighter and my vision seemed much sharper. HOWEVER, I felt more buoyant in the days following the fasts (except for when PMS hit). I generally do 18-24-hour I.F. daily because it's more doable for me. My mood and energy are at their best at 17-22 hours of fasting.
🔥💪 great job!
This is my first time trying a 48hour fast and then are two things I wondered about; that might affect my results or the way I feel.
1) I have a cold/flu. In some ways I thought it might help - often hunger dissipates when I’m sick. I also wondered about the power of the body to self-heal
2) I wasn’t sure if there was a correct time of my cycle to do the 48hr specifically. Aside from the week before a period of course
I’ll look forward to trying this again in different circumstances as well.
I’m loving Dr Mindys videos, she’s incredibly inspiring.
Thank you so much for the knowledge you and your team are sharing ✨👌🏻
Your amazingly intelligent body will heal, when in doubt, fast it out is one of Dr Mindy's sayings. If fasting according to your cycle this length of fast would fit in your power phase.
Cheering you on!! 🎉🙌
💙 Dr Mindy's Team
I just love you, your energy and your ability to explain all of this!!!! Thank you and God bless you!!!
Thank you! 💙
Omg good stuff…luved the way you explained it….I did an 86 hour AND swear I got so much energy/depression is gone /brain fog etc…dopamine you nailed soooo true…new follower…have a great day
10 hours to complete my 3 day water fast and frankly from 48 hours it gets more challenging but the experience is so far satisfying. The clarity in mind and how I'm getting things done makes me wanna stay here a bit longer 😊
🙌💪💪
I ❤ these videos! These are a shot of inspiration to keep going :). Currently at 37 hours of a planned 72+ hour fast. Just water, black coffee and salt (if needed). I really appreciate the FLAG recommendations for fasting. Fasting at the end of the cycle is futile! Now it completely makes sense. I gave myself grace during that time knowing at the start of the next cycle I’d do a reset and here I am:). Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
🙏❤️
I think I’ll start doing this monthly. Thank you!
💪
How often can you do this fast “ in search of happiness and weight loss quicker rather then slower” thanks dr mindy you rock!
Dr. Mindy, Could you please do a video on the topic of “is there such thing “as too much of autophagy” (time wise) and if there is what happens to our body.
I am a big fan of yours, your videos are awesome and I am learning so much. Thank you!
💙 thanks for the suggestion 👍
1. Do we drink water when we do 48 hours fast? How much should we drink?
2. Can mix a drink including extra virgin coconut oil, sesame oil, olive oil with apple cider vinegar, turmeric, cinnamon and lotus powder during long fasting?
3. What supplements should we take during such long fasting to prevent losing minerals and muscle?
4. What should we prepare before go 48 hours fasting?
5. What foods should we prepare for breaking fast?
6. Should we workout during 48hours fast?
1. Yes, staying hydrated is essential during a 48-hour fast. Aim to drink at least 8-10 cups (64-80 ounces) of water throughout the day.
2. Mixing those ingredients during a long fast might not be ideal as it could potentially disrupt the fasting process. Stick to water, herbal tea, or black coffee during your fast.
3. While fasting, consider electrolyte supplements or consuming a pinch of high-quality salt (like pink Himalayan salt) to maintain mineral balance. Protein supplements can help preserve muscle mass but should be taken carefully.
4. Before a 48-hour fast, mentally prepare yourself, stay hydrated, and ensure you have a plan for breaking the fast.
5. Prepare easily digestible foods for breaking your fast, like bone broth, a small salad, or lean protein.
6. Light exercise like walking or yoga is generally fine during a 48-hour fast, but listen to your body and adjust your activity level as needed. Avoid strenuous workouts.
Great video. I’ve just starting fasting this week 16/8. Before I was coming in from work binging on food, and today I’ve going 19 hrs with out food and I’ve completely lost my appetite 😂. Dropped 5lbs in 4 days. Tbh I feel great I’m definitely sticking to it, just shows you all this rubbish about breakfast being the most important meal of the day
Right there with you! I was a snacker! If I was up and hungry, no matter the time, I was gonna eat something. My first night of IF was a comedy reel. I literally had to tell myself EVERY five minutes, 'no, you're not eating right now...' 😅 Now it is a breeze to eat within a window, have even done a 72hr fast late August. Been working with this for months and really getting into the groove that works for me 👍🏼 thanks be to Dr. Mindy!!! 💚🙌🏽
This was super helpful. I started my 72 hrs a little ahead of the group and I'm at 43 hours right now. So inspired to keep going!
I tried 36 hour fast and ended up doing 42 hours. I'm determined to try 48 hour fast.
🎉 Congratulations!! That's fantastic 🙌

Thank you for reinforcing what I thought was my own unique conceptions of how my body was repairing my mind when I was denying myself the toxicity of food intakes!
This is a personal challenge and satisfaction builder. This evidence is new to me, but the concept was born in the bad old days of incarceration. This is food for the brain, in and off itself. Better than the over indulgences of food for the gut, which is not as good as the food here, for the brain.
Self discipline is also better built with such information!
Thank you for helping me grow my perspectives.
I'm poor so I'm fasting all the time. Proof that there is a silver lining in that dark cloud.
Love this! My mantra is: "Look for the silver lining in that dark cloud". There's usually one there, even if it's obscured.
Im fasting and became poor. Im messin something up
Get food stamps if you’re poor. It’s $200
@@StormExalt too poor for food stamps
@@TimC-tm5gb no I believe you recieve $200 a month
I love your work, I came across you a month ago and I'm obsessed haha! I've been following along, sharing and trying some of the fasts with great results! I just purchased your book and can't wait to read it! Thank you for all you do! Lots of love 🫶
Almost completed your book. So much information to process. For those who are Indian (Asian), our meals include rotis (chapatis). In order for them to be healthi(er) I mix in ragi flour, whole wheat flour, bajra flour, tofu, spinach, lentils, chillis, spinach, ginger - basically make a meal in one chapati. The kids love it. And my grandparents and their grandparents had it for every meal - and both lived a very long lively life! But now I’ve been questioning what I am making and it’s not feeling too good. Is whole wheat flour a complete no no? Any links as to what flour I should use, if any. Or is it ok if I carry on with what I am doing? It’s been hard to navigate this terrain especially living in the US but having to cook Indian foods (which i find a little more nutritious).
I finished my 48 hour fast and it felt good. I ll do another one after my ovulation days.
Eat keto
Lowcarb, no grains, beans, starchy vegs
Try using buckwheat, gluten free . ❤
Yes! I have done 3, 48hr fasts 4 months ago prior to abdominal surgery. I am preparing for my 4th 48hr fast to rest after too much feeding
You can do this! 🙌 Please keep us posted, we would love to hear how it goes!
💙 Dr. Mindy's Team
😅😅
Very helpful and very interesting! Thank you 🙏🏻 I was also wondering what's happening in between. For example, I just fasted for 42 hours (was going for the 36, and then I've extended a bit). Is it gradual or only when you get to the 48 threshold?
Thank you Mindy for explaining dopamine and serotonin in a way that I actually understand. I did the 72 hr fast and at 48 hrs I felt happy, I was content and I was telling myself YEAH let’s go, only 24 left , I can do this, I was on the resetters Facebook page like a keyboard warrior encouraging others to keep going, they’ve got this etc. Now I understand why I was so motivated 😂😂 Finding you has been the best thing. I have Fast like a girl audiobook but I’m buying several hard copies to hand out to my female compadres. They really need this too.
💙🙏
I just finished a 48 hour dry fast, no water or food for 48hrs. The first day is always the toughest. It's mind over matter. The longest dry fast I've done was five days. Dry fasting one day is the equivalent of water feasting for two days.
Congratulations!! 🙌🥳
Hi I have just finished my first 48 hour fast . I feel great. I cant believe I managed it. I feel great . I believe I can change my life and improve my health thank you so much.
YOU are doing it!! Congratulations on your 48 hours, that's huge! 💪🙌💙
I always do 3 days fast
Never stopped after 2 days
I'm on 24hrs now. I feel hungry and so tempted to eat but not really hungry. I've been feeling sh*tty, gaining weight, swollen-definitely retaining water, and unmotivated 5 days ago-premenstrual. Miserable and uncomfortable. I've been more active swimming 2x/wk, hot yoga, pilates but I do not understand the weight gain (belly fat) and the PMS. I'm 42 and my cycle has gotten steady but experiencing a lot of hormonal changes during the different stages of my cycle. Been eating healthier food. So I hope this 48hrs will help. It's been a rollercoaster feeling the past year.
It sounds like you're experiencing significant hormonal fluctuations that can impact your weight and mood, especially premenstrually. Increased physical activity and healthier eating are great steps. The 48-hour fast may help reset some aspects, but considering your symptoms, consulting with a healthcare provider about your hormonal changes and their effects could offer more targeted solutions.
I feel much better since I do intermitent fasting (3 months),but I didn't lost 1 gram. I do 24 ,, 36 or 48 hours. I have 1 kg more . I don't understand. Please help! I do believe in fasting, but why didn't work for me to lose weight? Thank you!
You eating only wholefoods? So nothing but plants, vegetables + meat + yoghurt etc .. nothing from a bag with salt etc...
Try strict Carnivore with compressed eating window for 30 days. I did this and lost 52 pounds in 3 months. I had always been very lean but at 45 slowly started gaining weight despite being grain free, sugar free, organic, etc. the normal keto diet was not working. Carnivore changed it all. I am 51, 5’2”, 118 very ripped pounds and I put the 20 year olds to shame at the gym. They all ask for advice( I was very into bodybuilding in my 20s and 30s so I had a good base to start with). Now I do OMAD 3 days a week, 17-20 hour fasts 3 days a week, and one day of 13 hour fast. I have expanded the carnivore diet to add avocados, occasional sweet potatoes, berries, raw dairy products, and have maintained this weight for a year. Salad used to be my favorite meal, now it’s my cheat meal and always bloats me like a puffer fish!
I eat very healthy, I cook myself. Soup , meat, fruit and vegetables. Black coffee. Thanks for answering!
@pamn9220 thanks for answering! I start today carnivore, but I miss the fruits. I use to eat 1 meal of fruits and one meal of meat with , cheese or eggs with vegetables ( usually 1 tomato). Thanks again!
@@vivianaviv5860 good for you! You can do it! There is always an answer, you just have to keep digging until you find what works for you. You will get the fruit back eventually you may just have to watch the quantities. My Naturopath is one of the top in the nation, Johnathan Wright( featured in all of Suzanne Sommers books since he is her doctor too) . He explained that 25% of the population is predisposed to diabetes, genetically, and those people produce twice as much insulin as the rest of the population. I am one of those people which means I will never have the same flexibility with carbs.I always keep them low. You could be part of the 25% too, and maybe it’s the fruit shooting you in the foot. Best to you! I love to see so many amazing women fighting back against the notion that we must let go of our health as we age.
I have experienced a great increase in clarity of mind and energy after 2 48hr fasts. Thank you! And yes the joy factor is high again!
Thanks Dr. Mindy, I am doing 36 hour fast today. My goal is 48 hours!!!
Awesome!!! You've got this!!
Amazing timing! I was going for my 1st 36hr fast but now I'm going to go for 48. I'm 14.5 in right now. 💖🥳🤸♀️ Really excited for these benefits!
woohoo!!! 🔥🥳
@@DrMindyPelz 🥳💃🏻🤸♀️🎊 half hour to go!
If you can do 48 hours its best to do 60. By going to bed and getting more fasting hours when you're sleeping ...If you can sleep lol because your energy levels as I've found are off the charts...lol
You people must be fat and overweight because at 48 hours I was so lethargic and feeling sick that I had no choice but to eat something or I would have fainted.
I just finished my first 96 hour ( 5 day ) water fast! Words cannot express how amazing this was! Will do 48 hour fasts every two weeks, along with IF ( 16 hours ) every day! Here's to our optimum health and longevity, everybody!!
🙌
Fasting is amazing!!
I would love to do a 5 day fast but I literally would turn into a skeleton. I’m 5’1 110lbs.🥵
23 hrs to go... current longest was a 36 hour fast and felt great after that so looking forward to the 48 hr for the benifits it may have on my A.D.H.D 😊
What if you’re at around 17-18 hours and experience tons of anxiety instead? What would that be from?
I had a hell of a time yesterday after around 18 hours up until 20 hours where I had huge amounts of anxiety.
You need Electrolytes badly. Listen to The Resetter Podcast interviews with Rob Wolf of LMNT Electrolytes and he explains why these symptoms occur. When. You fast or go low carb your body release sodium and potassium from your system in urine. We must replace them or you will feel awful.
Right in the middle of my first 48 hour fast. Listening to this video to keep me going!

This is the best explanation ever!! I have been confused about fasting. I understand now how important it is.

I do alternate day fasting every week and do 48 hour fasting 2 to 3 times per month makes a huge difference. Eliminates cravings, crashes and weight management
Great information! This video was so helpful and encouraging for me to gradually get up to a 48 hour fast. I do 17 hours typically four days a week and try a 36 hour fast one day a week so I feel like I’m on the road to the 48 hour!
Thank you so much Dr. Mindy. I follow and practice a lot of health advice. Yours is the most exciting I've seen in a long time. Definitely going to implement this!
🤗
I'm 30 mins away from y first 48 hrs, feeling good going to try for 72. Thank you
Cheering you on! 🥳🙌
I did a 60 hour fast. It was supposed to be 48 but my day took a crazy turn and didn’t ge time to make eggs!I felt wonderful. Had so much energy. My colleague asked me why I am so happy?😂
I'm glad to hear that, but it's your hard work and persistence that made it happen. Keep it up! 💙
Thanks to you i’ve been fasting 36hrs Weekly for the last 1,5 year! And i love it? Makes me enjoy food when i eat ect. 48hrs monthly sounds cool…..
🙌👏👏
I'm starting 36 hours weekly this weekend. In the past, I've done a lot of 60 which I concluded that it's too long. 48 is the sweet spot but it is still long. 36 is even better.
Thank you Dr Mindy, I really really needed a video with this content at this time. Love you, love your book and what you're doing. I'm taking it slowly to make sure I properly understand your teachings and implement implement them correctly but I already see improvements after 2 weeks.
🙌💚 thanks for sharing, and great job!!
Thank you!!! I've been learning a lot about dopamine lately, but the insight on serotonin in this video was SO Helpful!! I absolutely need a serotonin reset! I see a 24 hr fast in my future! 🎉
The purpose of the extra dopamine receptors is to make you feel a greater sense of "joy", or pleasure, when you eat again, so that you will enjoy food more, crave food more, and be driven to seek food. It is a survival mechanism from times when food was hard to find.
Last week I drank 2 beers in day and I drank a coke another day .... these were 2 days in a roll. I got stuck I was doing 17&18&20 hour fast nothing was happening and I was hungry some days .... I did a 37 hour and it reset me ... not hungry, list more weight finally. Amazing what you have taught me
I’ve been aiming at 24 hours for 7 months, never made it past 20/21 but yesterday I did it! Then went to bed and now I’m on 36 - feel amazing! Thanks dr mindy
Way to go!! You've got this! 🤗
I’m going on 60 hours at the moment. I am at 6.8 GKI, .7 ketones at the moment , strange for me, I have been fasting over a decade, 2 years intermittently consistently. I never knew how exactly I was able to drop over 100 pounds 4 different times, using data that is. Now I’m 48, male, and this last fast I was surprised my ketones were so low. Last week I did 48 hours and was at 2.7 GKI and 1.4 ketones. I never measured ketones and glucose, so just learning the data aspect, I guess I didn’t realize the importance of breaking fasts properly.
I’m at 69 hours with my fast. I feel great. Lots of energy. My surgery is finally normal at 83. This is fantastic
Very well done!!! Your teaching has made a huge difference in my life. Thank You...
🙌 Thanks for being here watching!! 💙
Hi Y'all. Trust you are well. I see a total of 583 comments. I wish you all well. I need some advice here. Diagnosed with an auto-immune condition a year ago ( I work in Tech Sales). Tried all types of medications, it subsides n Reoccur. I saw Dr Mindy's "Think like a CEO" TH-cam episode and I thought I will give it a try. I am new to Autophagy. I've been doing 16:8 , OMAD (rotate) for couple of months now. But, I feel like loosing my muscle mass and energy and stamina, esp lifting weights (10-15kg) even doing in moderation. In the past, by simply cutting sugar, dairy and carbs, I've had amazing weight loss results. But, this time, it's a bio hack n not just loosing weight. I want to try 24 & 36 hour fast, but once I cross the 18 hour threshold, my body is giving up. I simply consume water n nothing else during my IF (scared if my blood sugar wil rise).
Thanks in advance
Decided to go on a fast August 31st 8pm, now heading into 40 hours. weight loss and health benefits,
miserable and in pain all over injured knee screaming and surgery areas painful, i give up ! so i decided to do this. 57 on September 9th anticipating great results, water and lemon, apple cider vinegar, green tea herbal teas. trying to fast as long as i can. fasted 3 weeks once did great. but ate rubbish eventually
lost momentum.
💪💪
I'm now 12hrs away from my 48hrs fast. Experienced nasal congestion and severe headache after 12hrs but gone away after 24hrs and feeling better but still experiencing bloating ,gas and constipation. Still gurgling inside my lower abdomen but hopefully will get better soon.

I finished my first 36 hour fast a couple of days ago. I actually went about 31 hours. My blood sugar was usually floating between 70-90 and ketones 7. However on the last day my ketones were hitting 20 and my keto mojo meter warned it was high. That was my motivation to shorten the fast. I never hear a discussion about safe limits during a long fast. Any takers?
.7
2.0
Were those the ketone numbers?
2.0 is great-not dangerous!
Even 3.0 is fine
