Intermittent Fasting Guide for 2022 | Doctor Mike Hansen Did you know that itҳ been predicted that by 2030, more than half of the U.S population will be classified as obese, and this doesnҴ even account for the number of people classified as overweight?

If you think Fasting could be a good fit for you, thatҳ great because it has tremendous potential to help you lose fat. A review article conducted in 2020 looked at 27 trials where participants took part in some form of Fasting. They found that Fasting resulted in weight loss between 0.8-13.0% from baseline body weight and waist circumference decreased (in the studies that recorded it). This systematic review of 40 studies found that IF participants typically lost 7-11 pounds over 10 weeks. Several experts and policymakers have developed the American Dietary Guidelines 2020-2025. Essentially they are a set of dietary recommendations updated every 5 years. When we summarize the high-quality evidence available to us in these guidelines (as well as in consensus statements and high-quality studies), we can see that a healthy diet (or healthy dietary patterns) are made up of the following components: Eat plenty of whole fruits and vegetables of all types (especially aiming for more vegetables than fruit). Eat high fiber starches and choose mainly whole grains. Eat protein-containing foods daily from various sources (mixed, vegetarian, or vegan are all perfectly healthy). Choose minimally processed fats and oils from plant sources. חח- Doctor Mike Hansenҳ Programs Increase Your ENERGY & BANISH FATIGUE: https://learn.doctormikehansen.com/products/increase-energy-course/ 6 Days To MORE ENERGY: https://doctormikehansen.com/6-days-to-more-energy/ חח- When you eat a ѮormalҠmeal, glucose (from carbs) and fatty acid (from fats) are the primary energy sources for your cells. After youҶe eaten, glucose is used as a direct source of energy, and fatty acids are stored in your fat tissue in the form of triglycerides. When you fast, meaning you are eating nothing or very little, your body runs out of glucose and needs an alternative energy source to keep going. It now breaks down your triglycerides into their individual components (fatty acids and glycerol), and then your liver will convert the fatty acids into ketone bodies. Ketone bodies (or ketones for short) can be used as an alternative energy source for many tissues, including the brain. When you eat enough food (from all 3 macronutrient groups- carbohydrates, proteins, and fats), the number of ketones in your blood is low. When you fast, this level rises within the first 8-12 hours, reaching between 0.2-0.5 millimolar (mM) levels, maintained for about 24 hours with a subsequent increase to 1-2 mM by around 48 hours. However, fuel is not the ketoneҳ only function; it also significantly affect your cells and organs. For example, ketones able to: 1. Improve mitochondrial function Mitochondria are often referred to as the powerhouses of our cells. Energy in our body is mainly from mitochondria releasing energy from ATP molecules. When we suffer from metabolic disturbances and obesity, our mitochondrial function is reduced, but Fasting may help improve this function. 2. Help your cells become more resistant to stress During these times of food restriction, the cells adopt a stress resistance mode. Essentially you are making your cells more challenging to withstand. 3. Enhance autophagy Autophagy, which is Latin that stands for ӳelf-eating,Ԡrefers to when cells purposely eat other cells in your body. They might sound like a bad thing, but itҳ not. Autophagy gives your cells the ability to clean up ӣellular garbageԠthat usually accumulates in cells or when you are hurt or sick. Basically, itҳ your cellҳ version of taking out the trash! When autophagy doesnҴ work properly, your immune system attacks this cellular garbage and can cause low-grade, chronic inflammation (the basis of most chronic diseases). 4. Help Recovery When you eat or break the fast, the body is forced to switch from Fasting and using ketones to glucose. This is known as ѭetabolic switching.
