I started carnivore and intermittent fasting just over a month ago, I was insulin resistant. I’ve lost 24 Lbs and down 2 clothes sizes. In 1 month! My longest fast so far is 36 hours. Appreciate all your advice
Down 40LBS!!! Best advice I have ever came across. From 11 Years Cancer survivor and now the healthiest I have ever been I feel great and believe me I have read so many nutrition books 📚 during my Cancer journey and your advice beats all!!!! 1000%🙏
7 Tips of Intermittent Fasting: Tip #1: 5:06 - Drink while fasting. Examples come at 7;30 Tip #2: 8:45 - Eat a pinch of salt Tip #3: 9:14 - Add butter or ghee or fat to your coffee. Eating a fat doesn't break the fast Tip #4: 11:35 - Start slow, for newbies, fast 18-20 hours. Tip #5: 12:33 - Which meal to skip. Focus on the hours of uninterrupted fasting. Tip #6: 15:25 - When breaking your fast, eat meals very high in fats and protein. Eat until comfortably full. Tip #7 18:55 - No portion control. Eat as many eggs, beef, salmon, etc., as much as you need. Don't overfill.
I might only add that if someone needs to lose excess weight/fat, they keep their fat intake moderate and be sure the trim the excess off the sides of meat. We store fat in order to burn it for energy when needed, but if we keep supplying "high fats", our body will hold on to what it's got. At least that's been my experience in weight loss. Plenty of meat, no calorie counting, but no excess fats until I'm in the maintenance phase. I eat OMAD...Thx for summarizing the list🙂
I have fasted with just black coffee and water for 5 days, Sunday night to Friday evening. The biggest problem is the boredom. I never realized how much time is spent around food and eating. Preparing meals, eating, cleaning up after the meals. So helps to have plenty of things to keep busy, but was never hungry or grumbling stomach. I will also add that it really helps to be totally keto and fat burning adapted before doing this.
Ditto! Same here! I could have written your post! Except, I have done a 10 Day and a 21 Day Water Only Fast (both were when I was doing Keto, a few years before starting Carnivore.). Definitely easier to fast after becoming fat adapted!
72 hours. IF for 9 months...down 60lbs since November 2019. 250 to 190, on my way to 180 Goal. 5’10” 70 yers old....walk walk walk, no gym since March due to Covid.😜
My longest fast was 16days. Now I eat when hungry which turns out to be every other day. I started keto in 2017 at 250 lbs which was down from 269 lbs after eating Paleo three months before starting keto, and now my weight ranges between 158 - 165 lbs.
Norway here! Went KETO 2 years ago to lose weight and then low carb intermittent fasting to keep the weight achieved! Works very well! Mostly doing 16-8 to 21-3 in a mix. On an occasional 48 hr fast right now. Fasting is easy when you get used to it! You will also feel an elevation of your mood! Fasting is an amazing thing that will change your life for the better!!
My longest fast was last year with 64 hours. However my daily standard fasting is 17 to 18 hours. And after being diagnosed with Hashimoto's in January 2015, I am now in remission with my antibodies now at zero. I consider my IF and keto/carnivore diet over the past 2 years to have been key to my healing. Time and consistency, but not perfection, by any means. Just keep practicing and tweaking what works for you. 👍
Enjoying the Information, I’m 61 and have suffer from migraines ever since I was in my mid teens. It’s bad it took me years to find out that I was eating wrong. Keto plan has Been a blessing. Thank you
It’s really hard for me to do keto fasting because I get up everyday at 4am. This is the time I got up when I was young and was working everyday. Now I can’t break my sleep cycle. I just turned 60 and I am pleased that I have lost 18 pounds in 2 months. 20 Pounds was my goal but now I am going to change that to 30. Thanks for sharing all the great info.
I’m 69 and currently doing a 30 day intermittent fasting challenge. One week 14 hours, next 16 hours, next 18 hours, and then alternate day fasting the last week. Much easier than I thought and feel good. I have even completed 2 Five day fasts called Fasting Mimicking Diet by Prolon. So many benefits
Thank you for all your videos. I am watching this from the DFW area (live in Cleburne). I began Keto with intermittent fasting on May 2nd. I have now lost 70 lbs, headed toward a goal of 120 lbs. Your videos have been a tremendous help. I appreciate the practical, "casual" approach (no technical terminology).
I'm so sorry missed the live. I am from Colombia and very happy to have found you two. I am in my fourth carnivore week, I feel great and my allergies are almost all gone. Thank you very much for your videos and information!
my best fast was 48h fasting, i tried to hit the autophagy. But since I switched to OMAD for 2 month ago and I go to the gym 6 days of the week, I didint like the feel of it. I use to eat a dinner (6pm), but starting tomorrow i'll swtich the meal to the breakfast (8am). So when i'll go to sleep, i'll already be in a 16h(ish) fast and alot of research says the growth hormone and autophagy hit better at 16-24h fast when you sleep. i'll try this for a month, wish be luck. Here the result from 7 september to 7 october 7 september - weight: 108kg waist size: 98cm 7 october - weight 102kg waist size: 91cm DISCLAIMER - 26 years old, height 185cm, live in Canada - I do power lifting at the gym, huge load, 6 reps or less, 3min break each sets - switched since 14 october to 3 gym session a week, because my gym didnt close but we can only go by reservation now (30 people max), so I go in 3 specific day and time a week now. - I started to use Redmond salt since october 5, before I was using costco pink salt (just wanted to test) - The 1 avocado/day started october 24 (no side effects and I think there to much good in a avocado to past out on it) - started to add the coconut oil in october 3 and for the next 2 days after that, I started to have huge pain the heart in the evening 8pm.

Prior to fasting I used to get so hangry if I didn’t eat within 4-5 hours of last eating. My husband was so surprised when I could go for 12 hours the first time. Now I can go 16-20 hours no problem. I’ve been IF for almost two years now. 35 hours was my longest fast and I only did that once.
Because of that Women's World cover story, I found Dr. Berry & the proper human diet. Life changing...reversing T2D for me & my husband plus weight loss. Thank you! More work to do & this is our lifestyle for the rest of our lives. 👍💜 Continuing to strive to thrive.
Dr.Berry, just when we think we know it all, you always educate and teach us new information to improve our health... Thank you for all the work and time you put in for us🙏...( cheers from Toronto)- -👍
144 hours or one week about 45 years ago. Now I want to get back into fasting to help slow down the aging process. Thanks for your encouragement. You are like family to all of us tigers. Roar!
96 hours was also my longest fast (I weaned myself off coffee before I started). By the 96 hour point of fasting I was cleaning the entire house I was so euphoric and full of life and energy. I wanted to keep going but decided I had reached my goal and ended it there.
I was hospitalized and had a NG tube in for 9 days. No food or fluids for 9 days. That started my fasting journey. I lost a total of 130 lbs. I've gained some weight back since then. This was back in 2013. I am now going to start fasting. I can wake up at 7 am and not eat until 9pm. I never get hungry. I've spoke to my dr about fasting back on August 29th. I never have an appetite. He said by all means I can certainly fast. He gave me pointers and tips on fasting and then I came across your video. Thanks for putting this out there. Great video!
Watching from Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada..It's Labour Day here as well..I rarely eat breakfast, and 90% of times,I only eat one meal a day which is supper..I've been doing that for years..Fasting is not a problem for me..Since I've subscribed to your videos about a month ago,I've been watching my carb intake and it's working out quite well for me..☺
For me Fasting definitely has been a game changer for fat loss and mental health. When I am wanting cream in my morning coffee when Im fasting it means I didnt have enough fat the day before. I tweak it the next day and then Im good with black coffee. I could never fast before I stayed in ketosis. But now I can with ease. Ketovore and fasting is my jam. Years ago when i was killing myself at the gym and depressed. Keto and fasting can be a life changer for a depressed or anxious person. If that is you i beg you to try it. I am 50, 5’5”, 128. I have spine issues and I want a little more fat off because every pound is pressure on my disks. Strength training is helping so much. On a quest to build way more muscle for optimal function with spine problems. My husband who eats high carb most days can fast till noon with black coffee. There are still benefits in that if you can do it. Sometimes he will have an Equate lowcarb 30g protein drink in a triple iced expresso at lunch. What I am saying is he eats high carb but still practices fasting several days per week and it is benefitting him. I went to walmart and bought every flavor for the chance of him doing it more. If its easy and quick he will do it. He would not do it if he didnt feel the positive effects pretty quickly. His body is still getting a break from the insulin spikes. He is at a healthy weight and does strength training several days per wk @51 with good labs. Do whatever you can however you can. I cheer everyone on.
Thank you both! I’m in transition as I’ve had digestive issues for so long...keto was not for me aft 6 mos heart and soul into it! I was so afraid of going hungry is why I hadn’t started IF. Low FODMAP, digestive enzymes and intense probiotics is all I can muster now. Took yrs to learn root problem of digester disorder, bad gut bacteria that led to body inflammation 2500x where it should be. I’m not sure if keto made it worse? A Rollercoaster ride it’s been. I want to be healthy and to lose 25 lbs. I’m thinking that I just need to do this. My daughter recently lost 60+ on IF. You three are such a beautiful family. I love that you’re real and care. Sending love and light! 💕✨🙏🌈
Longest fast for spiritual reasons was 22 days, felt great. Longest fast for health and spiritual was 14 days in Jan/Feb. I'm doing TMAD but moving back to OMAD.
My longest fast was 120hours when I was doing keto. Now 2 months into ketovore, Neisha inspired me to start that. (Thanks Neisha for your awesome, real, heartfelt videos!) Feel great but haven't started trying fasting yet while doing ketovore.
I did a 21 day fast. Only stopped because my wife was worried. Could have probably done 30 days. Cured my type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and now a fatty liver.
@Bilbo Baggins Diabetes and obseity is a problem in the Middle East b/c they looooooovvvveee fast food. i think they consume more fast food per person in some ME countries than Americans - which is surprising. I mean... if I were a rich sultan, driving around in Maclarens... I'd eat a Big Mac too.
Started intermittently fasting in January 2022. 16 hours is my longest fast. Started at 12 hours. Working my way up to 20 hours. I was eating too much though. I don’t count my calories, I just stay away from added sugar and carbs. I am learning. Thanks for all the information. I tried listening to other docs on YT…you are the most understandable and least complicated for me!!
greetings from the philippines...thanks for all the helpful information being shared to the public. my health has improved dramatically since i started Low carb /Carnivore way of eating in Jan 2020....cheers and more power!
Hey from Lynchburg Virginia!! Love you guys!! and am so grateful to know a Doctor (and a nurse) who really does have our best interest at hand rather then want to give us the easy way (& unhealthy way) out with a pill 😊❤🤗 My longest fast was 120 hours..straight out the gate first time..WHEW! It was hard!! (At 58 years old)😜
Thank you both! I highly recommend adding pink salt or sea salt to drinking water. ½ tsp/L. Especially if you struggle to drink as much as you need to. So delicious!
I use Pink salt and also add magnesium (I just pop open the capsule) to a liter bottle of water. The magnesium is water-soluble and adds an oddly familiar taste that I just can't quite put a description too. 😁 Keeps me regular...
5:06 AM 11/19/2022 I fast 22 hours per day, 48 hours once a week, 72 hours once a month. I am in love with fasting and autophagy. And I have actually seen autophagy work. I believe completely in the power and intelligence of the human body.
Longest fast was 96 hours....been on keto for 2 years now.. lost 25 lbs and basically maintaining and eating healthy...I often do 24 hour fasts and drink a lot of water to curb any hunger pain. Definitely feel much healthier 🐓🥚.. also getting much better at prepping my food for a few days at a time too.. actually love cooking now🙂
Great to watch! How's Slovenia?! I love our FLOTUS! She is so beautiful & so classy! Love her and how she overcame so much. Communism to First Lady! She really knows what America does not need to be (Communist)!
I have been fasting for about 2 years now. M-F: 20-24 hrs SAT-SUN: 16-20 hrs I do low-ish carb most days, but will eat out and have some carbs such as a bun for a burger, and maybe pizza 1x a week on weekends. Found the fasting significantly helps with the carbs i do eat. If i was really bad on the weekend, I'll notice some brain fog, and can tell my blood sugar is low come monday around noon, but it usually passes. If i was really bad I need to eat lunch on Monday, usually happens 3x a year. Last week my wife wanted fried rice, and I ate that 2 days in a row. The next morning, despite still having food in my stomach from a late dinner, I was starving.. something i have not felt in years.. Made sure i ate, but just eggs & bacon. Lunch, had cheese and sausages. Ate a low carb dinner, and next day was "back to normal", with almost non existent hunger levels.
My longest fast was 7 days that I've done every 6 mths. I so far have done 2 rounds of it. I was shocked, but my body never felt better. Now currently do 23 hrs OMAD since June 2020
I'm trying out altetnate day fasting this month, sort of 42/6 pattern. I still have another 70 lbs of fat to lose to even approach a normal body weight. Already down 120 lbs in the last 1.5 years, even with a weird illness that almost put me in a wheelchair after 6 months. During the illness I stopped keto in case it was contributing to my illness and regained some of the weight I had lost in the first 6 months. In December after my PCP decided my problem was psychosomatic after ONLY doing an MRI, I went carnivore and my symptoms disappeared, I relost the weight I had regained and another 60 lbs since then.
Hollywood, Florida along with Tiki the Italian Greyhound who manages his weight with 1/23 fasting. He eats once a day even though he has food available at all times. He stays right at 21 lbs.
Listening from Melbourne Australia. Love you guys 😘😍🤗 I am doing keto and intermittent fasting right from the start 6 weeks ago. Love Dr Fung, Dr Mindy, Dr Berg, Dr Sten, Dr Becky and Dr Berry
Mm-K, I realize you get TONS of this~ oh well, here's some more; I. LOVE. YOU. PEOPLE. Seriously, it's like chattin' w/friends- even though you can't hear me, that's okay- it still really works. The honest, straightforward answers & real life conversation, is exactly what we ALL need more of ~YES, yes we do! Off to watch Neisha's latest post now~ oh, & btw, Beckett's lilttle side part hair 'did. ...stunning, my word. What a handsome, miniature man human, that one!!
Never could be convinced to eat breakfast before noon anyways... 90% (by calories) carnivore for the last 5-10 years. Started to alternate 2 days (lunch dinner) eating, 1 day nothing but water coffee tea (amounting to 40hour fast). This works awesome! It's not really hard (I do sit down for dinner with the kids on fasting day, read them a bedtime story and just go to bed myself with a book). It works like a charm both for fat loss and exercise! (I take measurements at the hip and the arms .... one is shrinking one not :-) and fell even more energetic to row/run/do chinups etc on fasting days! It's really feels like my body is telling me: "got no food!? here is some energy from the fat stores ... now go hunt! GO!"
You two are great. Longest fast was 58 hrs. I’m omad and will do a 48 hr fast about 1x a month. Edit: Aww, I just saw the ending when your son came in.💙😇
Longest fast was just a couple weeks ago (early January 2022). I went seven days…168 hours. Just had to keep my sodium and electrolytes up and did fine. I probably could have gone another day or two, but decided seven days was a good time to stop. I had to refeed slowly over more than a day, then switched to carnivore after doing keto for the previous few months.
Thought I was fasting 13 hrs daily... but yall just sraightened me out today! Was drinking 4 decafs w stevia,HW Crm & MCT oil😜 WILL switch to HIBISCUS ROSE TEA ...PLAIN 👍 ....so thanku very much😁
Hey, I have questions about fasting 1) when does it start? It is when the food is completely digested from the stomach and pass to the duodenum? Or is when I finish chewing the food and swallow it? Cuz I'm trying to do 18:6 so my last food is at 8pm and then I eat at 14pm the next day 2) if at 17hrs i have Autophagy and Self-detox how long should it be on, the fasting, after i eat something 1 hour is enough? 3) is recomended to do the 2days fasting 1 time per week, per month? For neural regeneration 4) which kind of neurons are regenerated? cuz i read that brain neurons cant be regenerated Pls respond with the numbers, TY for reading
7 days fast Christmas before last, we had our family celebrations earlier in December as that was when my daughter was free to visit. IF for 18 months. Previously had done a couple of 24/48 hour fasts. Strict healthy Keto, lost 120lbs.
What to add or not add to coffee is confusing, add butter but not heavy whipping cream add a few drops of mct oil. If I remember right Fung said people can use a combination of those fats. I believe he also said a person could ingest 500 calories during a fast.
I love the Monday Night Live series although I never get to join live. I have a question for Neisha. When Dr. Berry said if you threw him down a well he could survive for 30 days fasting. Neisha you said you will have to test that theory. Which one? 30 day fasting or throwing him down a well?!? 🤣🤣🤣
I got the keto rash from fasting too much. I was doing keto and the rolling 48's for two weeks ( keto and intermittent fasting for 2 1/2 months ) and got a crazy unbearable keto rash and nothing helped it but re-adding carbs for three days. It sucked but I think that was God's way of telling me I was fasting too much. I was just getting amazing results but I think I got addicted to it.
Love both of you! Will watch Facebook tonight. Drinking too much with Covid and no exercise I did 5 days a week. Discouraged! Gained 25 lbs! I also have Hashimotos!
Thank you so much ! Love your videos , I have learned so much , about fasting and food in general . Si grateful for all this information . Thank you again !

I started keto lost 32 lbs. then gained it back. Watched his fasting for beginners and have maintained weight loss. This truly saved me!
Did you stop Keto to gain the weight back? Keto isn't a temporary fad to drop a few pounds. Its a change in lifestyle...FOREVER!

You are awesome❤️ I’ve lost 75 pounds carnivore in 10 months , thanks to you❤️❤️❤️
I watched Dr. Jason Fung first, then within 6 weeks, I lost 15 kg, great job ! I learnt lots of keto from your TH-cam channel. Thank you !
It is much more important WHAT you eat than HOW MUCH you eat. Even MORE important than WHAT you eat, is HOW OFTEN you eat.
Prior to fasting I used to get so hangry if I didn’t eat within 4-5 hours of last eating. My husband was so surprised when I could go for 12 hours the first time. Now I can go 16-20 hours no problem. I’ve been IF for almost two years now. 35 hours was my longest fast and I only did that once.
Because of that Women's World cover story, I found Dr. Berry & the proper human diet. Life changing...reversing T2D for me & my husband plus weight loss. Thank you! More work to do & this is our lifestyle for the rest of our lives. 👍💜 Continuing to strive to thrive.
50 lbs down since mid feb. Thanks for your guidance. My cardiologist is very pleased as am I.
OMG, the salt trick! Everyone thinks I'm crazy when I do it, but it totally works! I carry Celtic sea salt everywhere I go!
Dr.Berry, just when we think we know it all, you always educate and teach us new information to improve our health... Thank you for all the work and time you put in for us🙏...( cheers from Toronto)- -👍
144 hours or one week about 45 years ago. Now I want to get back into fasting to help slow down the aging process. Thanks for your encouragement. You are like family to all of us tigers. Roar!
96 hours was also my longest fast (I weaned myself off coffee before I started). By the 96 hour point of fasting I was cleaning the entire house I was so euphoric and full of life and energy. I wanted to keep going but decided I had reached my goal and ended it there.
Well done. I do a monthly 72 hour fast which I find my optimum. 96 hours would be a bridge too far for me !
I was hospitalized and had a NG tube in for 9 days. No food or fluids for 9 days. That started my fasting journey. I lost a total of 130 lbs. I've gained some weight back since then. This was back in 2013. I am now going to start fasting. I can wake up at 7 am and not eat until 9pm. I never get hungry. I've spoke to my dr about fasting back on August 29th. I never have an appetite. He said by all means I can certainly fast. He gave me pointers and tips on fasting and then I came across your video. Thanks for putting this out there. Great video!
No fluids by mouth* I did have an IV, of course! 😊
Watching from Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada..It's Labour Day here as well..I rarely eat breakfast, and 90% of times,I only eat one meal a day which is supper..I've been doing that for years..Fasting is not a problem for me..Since I've subscribed to your videos about a month ago,I've been watching my carb intake and it's working out quite well for me..☺
For me Fasting definitely has been a game changer for fat loss and mental health. When I am wanting cream in my morning coffee when Im fasting it means I didnt have enough fat the day before. I tweak it the next day and then Im good with black coffee.
I could never fast before I stayed in ketosis. But now I can with ease. Ketovore and fasting is my jam. Years ago when i was killing myself at the gym and depressed. Keto and fasting can be a life changer for a depressed or anxious person. If that is you i beg you to try it. I am 50, 5’5”, 128. I have spine issues and I want a little more fat off because every pound is pressure on my disks. Strength training is helping so much. On a quest to build way more muscle for optimal function with spine problems.
My husband who eats high carb most days can fast till noon with black coffee. There are still benefits in that if you can do it. Sometimes he will have an Equate lowcarb 30g protein drink in a triple iced expresso at lunch. What I am saying is he eats high carb but still practices fasting several days per week and it is benefitting him. I went to walmart and bought every flavor for the chance of him doing it more. If its easy and quick he will do it. He would not do it if he didnt feel the positive effects pretty quickly. His body is still getting a break from the insulin spikes. He is at a healthy weight and does strength training several days per wk @51 with good labs. Do whatever you can however you can. I cheer everyone on.
Thank you both! I’m in transition as I’ve had digestive issues for so long...keto was not for me aft 6 mos heart and soul into it! I was so afraid of going hungry is why I hadn’t started IF. Low FODMAP, digestive enzymes and intense probiotics is all I can muster now. Took yrs to learn root problem of digester disorder, bad gut bacteria that led to body inflammation 2500x where it should be. I’m not sure if keto made it worse? A Rollercoaster ride it’s been. I want to be healthy and to lose 25 lbs. I’m thinking that I just need to do this. My daughter recently lost 60+ on IF.
You three are such a beautiful family. I love that you’re real and care. Sending love and light! 💕✨🙏🌈
Longest fast for spiritual reasons was 22 days, felt great. Longest fast for health and spiritual was 14 days in Jan/Feb. I'm doing TMAD but moving back to OMAD.
Excellent.
What is TMAD?

My longest fast was 120hours when I was doing keto. Now 2 months into ketovore, Neisha inspired me to start that. (Thanks Neisha for your awesome, real, heartfelt videos!) Feel great but haven't started trying fasting yet while doing ketovore.
I did a 21 day fast. Only stopped because my wife was worried. Could have probably done 30 days. Cured my type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and now a fatty liver.
Thats why muslims fast👍
@@allahwithmeneverbedeprived3494 Muslims tend to dry fast with food consumption sundown to sun up. I only drank water.
@@caedom21
But reccently u knew fasting benefits 😂
@Bilbo Baggins Diabetes and obseity is a problem in the Middle East b/c they looooooovvvveee fast food. i think they consume more fast food per person in some ME countries than Americans - which is surprising. I mean... if I were a rich sultan, driving around in Maclarens... I'd eat a Big Mac too.
“We should test that theory”
I love your humor Neisha😆
Sounds like something l would say to my hubby.
Started intermittently fasting in January 2022. 16 hours is my longest fast. Started at 12 hours. Working my way up to 20 hours. I was eating too much though. I don’t count my calories, I just stay away from added sugar and carbs. I am learning. Thanks for all the information. I tried listening to other docs on YT…you are the most understandable and least complicated for me!!
Love this! I’m trying so hard to IF but about the longest I’ve IF was 12 hours. Not giving up! Thank you! 💕
5 days
greetings from the philippines...thanks for all the helpful information being shared to the public. my health has improved dramatically since i started Low carb /Carnivore way of eating in Jan 2020....cheers and more power!
Hey from Lynchburg Virginia!! Love you guys!! and am so grateful to know a Doctor (and a nurse) who really does have our best interest at hand rather then want to give us the easy way (& unhealthy way) out with a pill 😊❤🤗
My longest fast was 120 hours..straight out the gate first time..WHEW! It was hard!! (At 58 years old)😜
Thank you both! I highly recommend adding pink salt or sea salt to drinking water. ½ tsp/L. Especially if you struggle to drink as much as you need to. So delicious!
I use Pink salt and also add magnesium (I just pop open the capsule) to a liter bottle of water. The magnesium is water-soluble and adds an oddly familiar taste that I just can't quite put a description too. 😁 Keeps me regular...
I put sea salt and HWC in my coffee.
You saved my life Dr. Berry!
5:06 AM 11/19/2022 I fast 22 hours per day, 48 hours once a week, 72 hours once a month. I am in love with fasting and autophagy. And I have actually seen autophagy work. I believe completely in the power and intelligence of the human body.
Longest fast was 96 hours....been on keto for 2 years now.. lost 25 lbs and basically maintaining and eating healthy...I often do 24 hour fasts and drink a lot of water to curb any hunger pain. Definitely feel much healthier 🐓🥚.. also getting much better at prepping my food for a few days at a time too.. actually love cooking now🙂
Watching from Slovenia - the state where your lovely FLOTUS was born.
Hello from Nevada, love your videos!
@Luanne Devoe I wish my grandparents did the same. :-)
Great to watch! How's Slovenia?! I love our FLOTUS! She is so beautiful & so classy! Love her and how she overcame so much. Communism to First Lady! She really knows what America does not need to be (Communist)!
I have been fasting for about 2 years now.
M-F: 20-24 hrs
SAT-SUN: 16-20 hrs
I do low-ish carb most days, but will eat out and have some carbs such as a bun for a burger, and maybe pizza 1x a week on weekends.
Found the fasting significantly helps with the carbs i do eat.
If i was really bad on the weekend, I'll notice some brain fog, and can tell my blood sugar is low come monday around noon, but it usually passes. If i was really bad I need to eat lunch on Monday, usually happens 3x a year.
Last week my wife wanted fried rice, and I ate that 2 days in a row.
The next morning, despite still having food in my stomach from a late dinner, I was starving.. something i have not felt in years..
Made sure i ate, but just eggs & bacon. Lunch, had cheese and sausages.
Ate a low carb dinner, and next day was "back to normal", with almost non existent hunger levels.
Two weeks semicarnivore and off seed oils... BP down from 160/100 to 120/77 today, and down 13 lbs, painlessly.
I love you guys, you have helped me so much. I’m down 30 pounds and my numbers are good. Watching from Mina Arkansas. Keep up the good work! 🌸
My longest fast was 7 days that I've done every 6 mths. I so far have done 2 rounds of it. I was shocked, but my body never felt better. Now currently do 23 hrs OMAD since June 2020
I'm in Ontario Canada. Its Labour Day here too.
Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

What?
I'm trying out altetnate day fasting this month, sort of 42/6 pattern. I still have another 70 lbs of fat to lose to even approach a normal body weight. Already down 120 lbs in the last 1.5 years, even with a weird illness that almost put me in a wheelchair after 6 months. During the illness I stopped keto in case it was contributing to my illness and regained some of the weight I had lost in the first 6 months. In December after my PCP decided my problem was psychosomatic after ONLY doing an MRI, I went carnivore and my symptoms disappeared, I relost the weight I had regained and another 60 lbs since then.
I'm so glad you didn't go the 'stomach-reduction' route....
Missed the Broadcast, its to early for me😏.Greetings from Switzerland and thank you so much.
Hollywood, Florida along with Tiki the Italian Greyhound who manages his weight with 1/23 fasting. He eats once a day even though he has food available at all times. He stays right at 21 lbs.
Listening from Melbourne Australia.
Love you guys 😘😍🤗
I am doing keto and intermittent fasting right from the start 6 weeks ago. Love Dr Fung, Dr Mindy, Dr Berg, Dr Sten, Dr Becky and Dr Berry
Thanks for your words. I’m 52 and had a mild heart attach 2 years ago. I’m gonna try this.
I'm currently in 84 hours of IF. Glory to God 🙏🏾
I always love watching the two of you together. You are inspirational!
Thank you for all you do! Please do a video on keto/carnivore and the affects on adrenal issues!! 🙏
Y'all keep me encouraged and going strong on keto! Thanks 😊
It's Labour Day here in Canada as well. Happy Labour Day to you all.

Love the channel Dr. Berry!!! Would be great if you could branch out into the over 50 crowd for packing on muscle/ diet/ training. Thanks Doc 👍👍
Wonderful information, explanations and presentation. Thank you very much!
Hi Dr. Ken and Nurse Neisha. I'm shoutin' out from NYC. I'm just about to watch this video👍

Off to watch Neisha's latest post now~ oh, & btw, Beckett's lilttle side part hair 'did. ...stunning, my word. What a handsome, miniature man human, that one!!
Love you guys...Dr. Berry..you have taught me so much!!❤❤❤ thank you!!! From Colorful Colorado
So since the first of this year with the carnivore diet Iv lost nearly 80lbs I still have a way to go.... also I’m in Nashville Tennessee
Hi. Watching from Malaysia, South East Asia. Awesome work Dr and Mrs Berry
Beautiful family, thanks for all you do!!
Never could be convinced to eat breakfast before noon anyways... 90% (by calories) carnivore for the last 5-10 years. Started to alternate 2 days (lunch dinner) eating, 1 day nothing but water coffee tea (amounting to 40hour fast). This works awesome! It's not really hard (I do sit down for dinner with the kids on fasting day, read them a bedtime story and just go to bed myself with a book). It works like a charm both for fat loss and exercise! (I take measurements at the hip and the arms .... one is shrinking one not :-) and fell even more energetic to row/run/do chinups etc on fasting days! It's really feels like my body is telling me: "got no food!? here is some energy from the fat stores ... now go hunt! GO!"
Harlan Co. Ky. Y’all the best!
I just started alternate day fasting. So far so good.
You two are great. Longest fast was 58 hrs. I’m omad and will do a 48 hr fast about 1x a month. Edit: Aww, I just saw the ending when your son came in.💙😇
Watching from Sydney, Australia and appreciate all the great information! Thank you 💐
I'm listening to you both from Luanshya, Zambia 🇿🇲
Thanks Dr. Berry!! Bam! Killing it.
Longest fast was just a couple weeks ago (early January 2022). I went seven days…168 hours. Just had to keep my sodium and electrolytes up and did fine. I probably could have gone another day or two, but decided seven days was a good time to stop. I had to refeed slowly over more than a day, then switched to carnivore after doing keto for the previous few months.
Anxious to learn about buying the PhD Summitt cds or however they're coming out!!!
Hi Dr and Mrs Berry. God blessings to you, thanks for the program watching from the Uk always follow you on Utube. Keep up the work, have a great day.

Hello Dr Ken and Neisha. From Melbourne ( lockdown nightmare central) Australia
We are with you! Stay strong!
Hey, I have questions about fasting
1) when does it start?
It is when the food is completely digested from the stomach and pass to the duodenum? Or is when I finish chewing the food and swallow it?
Cuz I'm trying to do 18:6 so my last food is at 8pm and then I eat at 14pm the next day
2) if at 17hrs i have Autophagy and Self-detox how long should it be on, the fasting, after i eat something 1 hour is enough?
3) is recomended to do the 2days fasting 1 time per week, per month? For neural regeneration
4) which kind of neurons are regenerated? cuz i read that brain neurons cant be regenerated
Pls respond with the numbers, TY for reading
26:40 Lol Reaction to (Throw you down the well. "We should test that theory") Love the Elvis microphone picture on your wall.
7 days fast Christmas before last, we had our family celebrations earlier in December as that was when my daughter was free to visit. IF for 18 months. Previously had done a couple of 24/48 hour fasts. Strict healthy Keto, lost 120lbs.
Hi from Sweden,watching on tuesday
⬅️ We really love your channel! So many great tips and I love the science behind it too! Thank you xx
Watching from WV.. Thanks for your time & efforts to help people.

What to add or not add to coffee is confusing, add butter but not heavy whipping cream add a few drops of mct oil. If I remember right Fung said people can use a combination of those fats. I believe he also said a person could ingest 500 calories during a fast.
I lived in Katwijk, Nederlands when I was younger, but I was born in the US and live in Wise County Texas now. Wooo
I love the Monday Night Live series although I never get to join live. I have a question for Neisha. When Dr. Berry said if you threw him down a well he could survive for 30 days fasting. Neisha you said you will have to test that theory. Which one? 30 day fasting or throwing him down a well?!? 🤣🤣🤣
I have a touch of keto flu and per your video on that, I'm only fasting until I feel better.
I'm from Augusta, Ga. Thanks for the wonderful info!
I got the keto rash from fasting too much. I was doing keto and the rolling 48's for two weeks ( keto and intermittent fasting for 2 1/2 months ) and got a crazy unbearable keto rash and nothing helped it but re-adding carbs for three days. It sucked but I think that was God's way of telling me I was fasting too much. I was just getting amazing results but I think I got addicted to it.
What is keto rash? Never heard of it before.
Love both of you! Will watch Facebook tonight. Drinking too much with Covid and no exercise I did 5 days a week. Discouraged! Gained 25 lbs! I also have Hashimotos!
Thank you so much !
Love your videos , I have learned so much , about fasting and food in general .
Si grateful for all this information .
Thank you again !
