This 1 Thing Can Replace Our Entire Medical System

from Dr. Berg’s Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting Podcast · host Dr. Eric Berg DC

The root cause of over 80% of chronic illnesses is insulin resistance. Fasting can help fix this problem. Fasting triggers survival genes and allows your body to use fat and ketones for energy. It takes about 3 days to get into ketosis. When fasting, don’t eat if you’re not hungry. It’s important to let your body tell you how long to fast. Fasting makes your cells more sensitive to insulin and does not raise cortisol levels. There are 2 types of fasting: water fasting, which means no food, and dry fasting, which means you don’t consume food or water. Dry fasting can be even more beneficial because you trigger dehydration genes that can enhance weight loss. Fat can be converted into water for hydration while fasting. Dry fasting benefits also include enhanced autophagy and more detoxification in the liver. If you’re fasting and you notice your hair is falling out or you lose your cycle, you might not be getting enough protein. Grass-fed red meat is the best source. It provides amino acids, trace minerals, B vitamins, and more. Ensure you’re getting enough sea salt and plenty of sleep. Magnesium and zinc are also essential. You need about 400 mg of magnesium and 50 mg of zinc. BOOK LINK: FAST LIKE A GIRL (Dr. Mindy Pelz): https://www.amazon.com/Fast-Like-Girl...
