OMAD + IF was the ONLY thing that pulled me out of obesity.
What do u eat during ur omad?
Your mom @@ntombilanga3541
Ribeye steak, eggs, bacon, cheese, lettuce salad, almonds, walnuts, Pecans, quality butter, butter in my coffee,
Almost zero fruit, if I ate any… it would black and blue berries and raspberries or a few strawberries. Never 2 days in a row. Some dark chocolate (no added sugar). No added sugars. Kept my carbs below 45 daily.
@ntombilanga3541 I'm not carnivore, but my meals always start with protein. I start with a protein shake (no fake stuff, no sugar or sweetners) and then go into eating eggs, beef, etc. Sometimes I'll eat it with veggies, sometimes not. Protein is KING in my diet.
@@HarrisonCountyStudio I eat similarly, except I put fruit (berries) in my protein shake. I didn't eat fruit when I was obese though.
Omad stops my cravings and stress eating. I’ve been doing IF for 8 years. I’ve never felt better.
Same, omad just feels nutural to me
For me my cravings still occurred doing OMAD. What really worked for me was when I finally did a single 36 hour fast. It was like night and day difference, just doing that one longer fast once. Wish there was a test to see what the ghrelin levels are easily at home.
So did you drink coffee or use stevia
What about weight loss plateu
I think people often forget that humans didn't always have supermarkets or refrigerators.
You're spot on! It wasn't until the invention of electricity that it was even possible to keep meat long term. Even then, we had to rely on unreliable "ice boxes" to do the work until the refrigerator was invented. 🙌🏼💯🎯
I think people also forget that humans life expectancy was 30 years back then.
THIS!!!!!
@Asskicker41582 no it wasn't. Someone lied when they made that statement. Heart disease is more rampant today than it has ever been. Keeping eating my friend 😉
@@Asskicker41582lack of antibiotics, tribal fighting and rudimentary medical practices had nothing to do with diet
One thing I haven't seen addressed about the OMAD way of doing things, is that from my experience doing OMAD for over a year, is that I think that giving my gut a break from permanently processing food from eating meals all day, SEEMS to make me feel way better and sharper during the day. I eat at dinner time every day, and that's my meal. When I do eat breakfast or lunch, I always feel so sluggish and way less sharp. I wonder if giving your gut a break, leads to positives that we don't know about yet?
I love the clarity and sharpness of mind of not eating all day. I use this as a tool for coaching, interviews, and other things that need my sharpness of thought. Probably the yield of ketones I'm getting injected into my brain.
I’ve done OMAD and IF for years. My body got used to it. I would also train hard 🏃♀. Started pushing the intermittent fasting up to 124 hour or 36 hour fast per week followed by daily intermittent fasting of 17 to 20 hours. I think it really messed my hormones up. I started getting irregular. And then my energy was really low. It was hard to get motivated to work out. I had very little strength. And I noticed that my metabolism pretty much just quit. it was like my body was in starvation mode so when I I. I’ve heard of other women talking about this. It took over a year to get their metabolism back after doing intermittent fasting for too long.
I agree 100% I’ve been doing IF for 3 years 16:8 not clock work my brain feels noticeably sharper before that first meals with tons of energy.
It does , I’ve read a study before that detailed this
OMAD makes your body rest and heal. It's also a great way to lose fat and lower insulin levels. Some sciences believe it's also positive for longevity.
I’m so relieved! Despite my concerns about protein absorption, I’ve been hesitant to abandon the OMAD diet because it has significantly improved my quality of life. Now, I can finally move past this worry!
Can't you think for yourself? You are feeling much better on OMAD, shouldn't that be enough or did you need 'i love myself Tom' to tell you that, do you live by his every word, what's wrong with you man?
@@brianstephen5392 Jeez calm down... he is pointing out new research "feeling better" doesn't mean you hit all of your macros...
@@brianstephen5392such hostility 😳😳
I am doing a low carb OMAD for 2 years now but only from monday to friday. The weekend I eat wathever I want. I lost 16 kg in 9 month and I maintained it untill now. The advantage is that if you crave for a pizza and a couple of brownies, you can have it during the weekend!
Don’t go too crazy, the weekend binge can erase all progress if too much
How much is 16 kg in pounds please? 😁

For 30 days I did rolling 72 hour fasts, where I ate 1 meal every 3rd day. It was usually in the 1,000 calorie area, and was almost always less than 70 grams of protein. I rarely had a bowel movement. My body absorbed and distributed almost every ounce of food I digested.
I have course corrected at 51 years old. OMAD was a tool I used on and off for 3 months to strip fat off that led to 4 pack abs to 6 pack ads, taking all that fat off the organs, which I started at 47 years old. Fasting was a huge part of my over system. Utilizing fasting for timely eating was a huge habit formation that consistantly kept body fat% below 14% year around. The main thing here is that OMAD was and is a tool, fasting is a tool for timely eating to help with disfuctional eating patterns that made me aware of the process needed to learn to get this dream outcome. Also keeping my protein at 1.25 grams per pound of body weight per day allowed lean muscle mass to retain and grow... Great science Thomas! This science has been applied to real life for my clients. I have used this for myself for the last 4+ years. REAL LIFE RESULTS with this knowledge!
My whole family naturally does this but you're correct. One meal a day can be done safely but I've always found it was hard to get all my protein and nutrients in with just one meal due to stomach shrinkage lol. I just can't eat that much. So I spread it out to one larger meal at dinner time and one decent snack about 8 hours away from the meal for normal day to day eating in a non weight loss situation. If I wanted to lose eight I'd skip the snack and watch the pounds drop like you said.
1.25g per POUND of weight?? I’d always heard 1.3-1.6g per KILOGRAM.. per pound means that a 150 person would be needing to eat nearly TWO HUNDRED GRAMS of protein daily… that’s beyond excessive.
@@lolawants2008 for my personal needs I take consume this amount of protein on lifting days... then I go back down to 1 gram per pound of body weight on non lifting days. As we get older our bodies use more protein for repair, recovery and immune system... I have seen long term clients including myself have better over muscle growth and recovery that leads to better performance with a lower amount of injury by increasing the overall quality protein intake on specific days.
@@lolawants2008it’s not excessive. The recommendations are minimum that we should strive for. Protein is the building block of the body. If you’re doing more physical activity or just overall moving a lot during the day, then you need far more protein. As we get older we need more protein as well. There’s no reason for us to limit protein it should be prioritized in every meal.
@@lolawants2008- there are coaches who help people that aren't doing great on carnivore, and tell them to scale back on their pro Tien and add up to 20 g of carbs/net carbs (your choice, apparently) of cruciferous veggies primarily. So there is a set of people who don't do well if They eat too much protein at one meal and/or avoid carbs. Hormone issues, and assorted other problems. On the other hand… Some people are absolutely thriving on much higher amounts of protein, and some find that they do better on certain kinds of proteins than on others. there are no hard and fast rules, and some people thrive more on eating the same meal over to over and others seem to need more variety. There are so many variables that we don't even know how to factor into this equation. I would just say that we need to keep learning and trying to figure out What the variables are and how those impact us when we eat in different ways… And not to expect when eating plan to be THE eating plan for the rest of our lives.
I do OMAD 5 days a week and will never stop, changed my life.
Does that mean that you would do pretty much a 24 hour fast every single day?
My wife likes going out for Breakfast on the weekend
@@HH-gv8mx it means that have a 22 hour fast everyday. Many people who do omad eat their only meal in a two hour window.
@@victoriawenz1987 yea I used to do that. Now I do 2 24-36 hr fasts per week followed by daily intermittent fasting of 17 to 20 hours.
I’m trying the 20 hour fast. One hour eating window stresses me out

Until he tells a different story next week
The problem is that He is presenting things as if He knows these things .
@@daviddestrebecq9806 I don't know about that. My sense is that he's never purported to do anything but present the results of various studies -- hundreds of them over the course of his career -- and tentatively drawing conclusions implied by those studies. He's never struck me as dogmatic.
@daviddestrebecq9806
He DOES know these things. He utilizes this information daily. He studies the science every single day!
@@2ellas2yep lol
So glad you brought this to light, Thomas. It is good news.
Thanks for clarifying & showing us the science Thomas!
I have eaten very large protein-laden meals for years and have always known that my body utilizes it very well. I've always been told that I should only eat no more than 30g of protein per meal. Even nowadays, I backload my protein intake to my last meal of the day, +/- 100g per meal, and my body utilizes this while I sleep. I don't do OMAD, but my meals during the day are smaller so my metabolism isn't negatively affected.
Curious question. Were you hungry during the day when you were eating smaller meals?
Yep- Im exactly the same
Good stuff, as usual. Keep it up, man.
So very glad to hear this! I often have a pretty large late breakfast with lots of protein (eggs, bacon, cheese, & sometimes a bit of veg) and then don’t feel hungry again all day…including “dinner time.” I worried that I “should” eat another meal (even if I didn’t really want one) just to squeeze in some more protein. This info is a game changer for me! Thank you so much, Thomas!
I love you. Thanks for all the great info!
Great content, Brother👍
Thanks. This makes total sense to me! I am relieved that I can continue with two meals and sometimes one meal a day!
Your content is relevant, fascinating and so informative. Thank you 🙏
Thanks for this info.
This is so good, I have always been curious about this for years, we hear so much talk by 'experts' how the excess protein would not get absorbed, even with resistance training, and they would never have any literature to back it up!!
Your absolutely best video,no cap
Thanks!
I've been mostly OMAD for certainly 35 and maybe 40 years ... way before anyone was talking about this subject at all. Mostly Keto for the last 7-8 years. Still warm and above ground and making comments on YT. About 15lbs over where l'd like to be but l like a drink in the evenings and this is life not purgatory.
😂😅😂
Well, yeah, cos l'm still alive to respond your comment 😂.
Thomas, do you follow Slim Land? He's being doing one meal a day for 10 years and thriving and still building muscle and I wouldn't be surprised if he's one of the healthiest people in the world. He does one meal a day plus one protein shake. It's possible that we're not doing it right.
Doesn't the protein shake make it 2 meals ? Unless he's taking at the same time as the meal
No my friend siim land's physique sucks. He fasts too much. He has some muscle yes but he can have 2-3x as much with a couple more protein meals
Siim is a fantastic source of information. They need to do a collaboration! Completely agree. 💯💪🏼🎯
He eats a lot of protein. That's how he does it.
@CheeseStickzZ But lots of muscle doesn't correlate to healthy. I mean, how much muscle does a perfectly fit and healthy person need anyway?
Good info
I knew this just from anecdote. Great vid
Thank you👍😁
Need more of these! Differentiating vids. The struggle is are they just avoidant/shizoid and severely traumatized or malig? This helps one dicipher
Very helpful video thank you
Very Good News!
Fantastic news!
I’ve been carnivore for the past 5+ years-best nutritional choice I’ve made in my entire life. Started doing OMAD in the evening around the 14th of February this year. I usually have a nice fatty steak, some cream cheese, and 6 eggs, or I’ll simply miss the cream cheese and make a fatty 6 egg omelette with a few spices seasoned in. OMAD is the second-best nutritional choice I’ve made in my entire life. I’ve dropped at least 9KG since then, dropped by 3.8 body-fat percentage & generally feel and look 100x better in the month and a half since I started.
Necrovores. Thinking they are carnivores 🙄🙄Choosing the most harmful way of life, leaving a legacy of a bloody trail of destruction and cruelty behind them.
@@CandyGirl44 Yep. And it feels amazing. Much less cruelty or destruction than you as well.
Thank you again Thomas for your open minded video.
great video thanks
My OMAD stray cats eat the same and as much as my 2MAD at-home cats but are just that little bit leaner. I learned on meditation retreats that more time to digest leads to much better digestion, glowing skin, stronger nails, hair etc.
Thomas: You are one of two people I watch every day! I have a comment about the timing and amount of protein you mentioned at around 6:25 in the video. If you get protein earlier, then yes - you will use it for synthesis. If you wait, however, you extend autophagy due to the demand for aminos and the lack of intake. So I try to do one meal a day and cram in a lot of meat and dense veggies during that meal. It's easy because as soon as I start eating it makes me hungry. You're a brilliant person who talks to us like "a regular guy". Keep it up!
What is a dense vegetable. 😂
Thanks for the content Thomas. Man, I wish Thrive was available in Canada!!
And Hawaii. I emailed them when they started to ask about this, and they said something like,"We're working on it and hope/expect to be there very soon." That was how many years ago, and when a year or so again I sent a second email, they didn't respond (kinda bad business practice to ignore a would-be customer, no?). So...
Yes ! ❤ thank you ! That’s what I do , 1 OMAD per week and 16 or 18 the rest of the days . I feel great !
Hi Thomas! Since thrive market created macadamia nut butter with allulose with your input, anyway they would use glass jar instead of plastic. We would like to buy them if they put the butter in glass jar, not plastic.
Thanks for clarifying the amount of protein to eat on OMAD, and the example you gave of eating 200g if your goal is to weigh 200 lbs, and not eating 300g. I’ve been doing the Carnivore Diet for 1 year, and started doing OMAD 3 weeks ago, and I absolutely love it. I’m never hungry and I don’t crave sugar or carbs.
I’m currently 460 lbs, and I’ve been eating between 550-650g of protein per day, but my goal is to get down to around 275 lbs, so I should cut back the amount of protein I’m eating down from 550-650g to 275g.
Fasting has been very positive for me. I mostly time restrict now & Exercise a lot.
after 5 weeks of being on OMAD (low carb more protein more veges, whole nutrient dense foods) and it literally got rid of my dreadful brain fog i had for almost a year. i no longer wake up feeling like a zombie! i was so concern to fix it and IF fixed it. i no longer feel constantly sleepy throughout the day! i lost 8lbs, my acne cleared, constipation and bloating gone. binge eating solved. i won't return to eating 3-5x a day and that made me feel sick and sluggish. While doing IF, i still can workout and don't have an issue with it. i still indulge to carbs or a sugary treat once a week only after eating my protein meal. don't eat carbs/sugar alone it increases your glucose spike. You will be amaze how less often ur body "needs" to have food.
I’ve been following the OMAD way of eating for years now. I also had a liver transplant in 2015 (unrelated to my diet, and I don’t have diabetes), and have my blood drawn on a regular basis for my doctors to monitor my health. I have never been told that I have a protein deficiency. I have been taking a single multivitamin everyday since I had my transplant as directed by my transplant team.
This just in! The sky is blue and grass green!
Awesome!
Thanks for the science ❤️🇨🇦
Your body is the best science. Nutritional “science” is mostly a joke.
Another solution is to spread your OMAD on a longer period, like 3+ hours. It's a great middle way between regular OMAD and 16-8, allowing you to eat more and more varied.
Yeah, well, what you’re saying is actually more likely called 2MAD.
I'm so glad because I cannot handle having to go back to multiple meals per day now that I have happily adapted to OMAD or IF.
Yup, I was just eating my one meal of the day while watching, 1 pound of ground pork, 4 eggs, 1 cup of raw cheese and some crumbled pork rinds, just because I like the crunch and salt in the mix, how much protein in that? I don't know, but it will sustains me for another 23 hours easily.
I always thought we could absorb however much protein our body needed to. I do OMAD and I don't really see a problem with it, with either protein or micronutrients. I really just don't worry about it.
I eat 200-250 grams of protein at 11pm right before bed. OMAD. I’ve lost 34lbs in 8 weeks. Only 4lbs of muscle. My maintenance calories are 2400. I usually burn 1100 active calories a day and my daily intake is 1800-2200.
Can you share what you eat on Omad to get that many calories
You are wasting the rebuilding power by digesting food while you sleep, animals eat till sunset, rest digestion at night, yeah you lost weight but it's not the optimal way I assure you but you do you, good luck, if you are that meal at 6 then you would be fasted during sleep and building muscle, not spending all that energy and cellular activities to just digest food , as alcohol and late night digestion can effect REM sleep , Fact , study that ?
@@daleval2182 you’re speaking about averages, I’m speaking from personal experience with my own body. You do you.
And advice on repairing your metabolism? I am 56, 75" tall and 265. I have eaten garbage food most of my life up until 2012. I quit smoking, drinking soda, and eating less. I have mostly eaten below my TDEE for the last 10 years I've cut out breads and pasta the last couple ke years. I can drop 10-15 lbs but that about it. I know my metabolism is jacked up as I gain weight eating 1500-1800kcal a day.
Im Glad to hear about being able to have more grams of Protein in my diet. I have done a lot of OMAD and shot from 76KG down to 69KG, with some 3 day fasts as wel. I only have a little bit of fat on my stomach and am trying to loose the last bit. What I have been trying, is some good quality meal replacement shakes (with Good quantities of Protein) with the one meal a day. I have started doing the gym, so don't want to loose muscle Mass, which was happening when doing OMAD and Cardio only (Cycling).
Excellent video. Howber, are you still recommending on 1g per Lb of protine in light of recent literature? Claiming 0.72/lb or 1.6/kg?
It was known sinse the Roman Empire. It was known in Middle Ages' England too, where commoners had to fast 3 days a week with not eating till 3PM and even later, with OMAD, during the Lents.
One Meal a Day (OMAD) diet is an intermittent fasting method that instructs you to fast for 23 hours and then consume one large meal in one hour. 1 Proponents of intermittent fasting say that not eating for prolonged periods is an effective weight loss method.Nov 8, 2023
How are you defining enough time? Time before what, you eat again? Exercise or sleep? Unless you throw it up, won't you digest and absorb it regardless?
Before you eat again.
Thank you Thomas for another banger of an episode!
I saw a lion once that was absolutely ripped. It all came down to his diet. Instead of having one large meal of an antelope once a day , he ate six rabbits evenly spaced throughout the day. Mr Lion got down to 6% body fat. Also helped by additional cardio of having to chase 6 rabbits every day. Rabbits run really fast
Lol.
Lol. No you just didn't listen to your body. As the late Charles Poliquin (aka strength sensei) used to say, science is ALWAYS late compared to practitioners. I have been doing omad every single day for 7 years now while doing my martial art training in the fasted sate 5 days a week. My recovery got better than before omad. My joint pain went away. I lost fat and GAINED muscle! So of course I was building muscle!! So while you keep fussing around, I'll keep doing OMAD. In ten years from now, when science catches up (if it ever does despite all the corruption) you'll do another video saying "we didn't know). Thanks for the content btw. Cheers.
🙄
It's true. They'll dismiss thousands of anecdotes for a small clinical trial.
Human health is so complex and so difficult to study in a controlled manner, that science is able to tell us virtually nothing with certainty. "Smoking bad" and "exercise good" are about the only things we know with certainty from science, because the effects are so profound and universal. For everything else, you will find conflicting studies or a lack of convincing evidence. Since science is virtually useless for guiding a healthy lifestyle, the guideposts I use are a diet and lifestyle consistent with that of ancient humans, and which improves and maintains my health in practice. For me, that means a diet based predominantly on meat with intermittent and occasional multi-day fasting.
@@ienjoyapples Quite honestly, I am not even sure about the "smoking bad" part. I don't smoke. But all the centenarians that I have known in my family did smoke and drink alcohol. Things are not as black and white as they are saying.
@@DodjiSeketeli Compared to something like "blueberries prevent colon cancer" where there's like a 2% effect, the correlation with smoking and lung cancer is like 2000% greater risk. It's such a huge increase in risk that it's hard to imagine what other confounding variables could be contributing to it. It still doesn't prove causation like a controlled study would, but it's a pretty good indication that smoking causes lung cancer.
Shawn Baker MD pointed to that detail quite some time ago...
He didnt have any study to prove it. If you dont have a study nobody believes...
@@anul6801 His remark was based on the study in cell reports medicine... ua-cam.com/video/uzFeYoJ2Uag/v-deo.html
This is great news
Can eat how much u want... anabolic state countuines to the protein is digested...
I never questioned getting enough protein when on OMAD. If you are deficient in maximum protein intake I did not think it was such a terrible issue. My concern is with the micronutrient deficiency. There's just not enough space in my stomach to be able to eat a wide enough variety of foods to guarantee all micronutrients. Thanks for the study review.
Does this protein absorption apply to people who have had gastric bypass surgery?
Hey Thomas, maybe I missed it. What does it mean to give ourselves time to digest when doing OMAD? Should we not work out after eating or do anything stressful?
I'm so confused. What's the alternative? Vomiting it out? What do you mean by give it time? Does someone know how to control time?
Good content and information again.
But despite You touched a little bit this, the question still remains about protein use as a muscle building material. When eating a lot of protein in small time window, then it gets digested slower than a smaller amount. But more of it is awailable at the same time compared to the situation when consumed smaller amount at a time. So, is it possible that this huge amount will not be used as muscle building materjal, because there are limits to the amount that is used accordingly. It means, that this amount that exceeds this usable amount as muscle builder is used for energy storage as glycogen and or fat.
And it’s bretty obvious that there are differences what kind of protein is used. For example, steak is digested slower than eggwhites. And despite that at some point there are alot of digested stake at certain time, the steak still gets digested during longer period of time compared to eggwhites, for example. So, it seems that how much protein is reasonable to be consumed depends alot of what kind of protein source is eaten. It looks like the best way is to devide the daily amount more than just eating one meal a day. Or at least consuming different types of protein sources on one sitting.
Of course there are many more aspects to it, what and when and how much to eat and drink, but this little issue with OMAD that I described above needs to get clarified a little bit deaper. So, Thomas or team, if You accidentally read this, it would be beneficial You to cover this topic with some more nuanses.
The biggest issue with omad for me, is simply consuming enough calories to satisfy my BMR. I can't do it, so I have my main meal at lunch, and then a second "top up" around 4pm. So it is sort of an extended omad. That way I can get my nominal 2200 kcal/day. With strict omad I just can't stuff enough food down my gullet in one sitting.
I have been doing this for 10 months and loving the results.
For reference I am an ovo vegetarian.
That pure bull crap, because OMAD is way superior to eating town in 4 hours. SMH 🤦♂️
thanks! what does it mean to have enough time to digest and so what does it mean not to have enough time to digest? based on the study i would have expected to actually get the protein towards the end of a traditional fasting (16/8)
I literally came to this conclusion myself few days ago I looked up how often do lions eat and decided to go back on omad 😁
we forget we are animals too...while some nutrients are especially unique to our requirements due to bigger brains, we can take healthy eating examples from many mammals...thanks for enlightening us with recent studies...good job bro...
This is why OMAD and Carnivore diet works perfectly together!
ugh. I'm having such a tough time with carnivore. Actually going more for keto or keto-vore. But man I'm sure addicted to sugary carbs! It's the evenings where I'm weak willed.
OMAD does not work “perfectly” for me. Feeding windows shorter than 16/8 are not agreeable to my body nor my activity patterns.
Because we're lions 🤦🏼♂️ Tell me you know literally nothing about human physiology without telling me you know nothing about human physiology
I agree, OMAD and Carnivore is the perfect combination.
Been on this protocol for 45 days, results have been amazing!
Weight loss, mental clarity, increased energy.
Carnivore/primal /lion for 5 years now ... works perfect
I never worried about this and neither should you Tom because we both do IF and OMAD and we’re both jacked.
If we do alternate day fasting, should we double our protein need on feast day?
I've always believed this. Being a climber and also weighing 220lbs, I'm actually better than intermediate level, you run across the 25g to 30g protein uptake as maximal a **** ton. So glad to have some material finally to back this up and show the bird eaters what they have been doing wrong and why they are always so frail looking. Thank you!!! Thank you Thank you.
I've been doing OMAD for years, with small cycles of regular 16/8 and cycles with no fasting.
I personally like OMAD as it's the easiest on to keep on track.
It was the easiest way I ever lost 30kgs.. repeatedly.
So there have been relapses, but when i'm on it, i'm fit and lean, can do 2 workouts a day, feel no cravings with total peace of mind and I don't require more than 6 hours of sleep.
These are my personal views and observations of my own experiments.
I do not suggest that you dive into this head first.
I started with following this channel in 2018.
Thanks Thomas!
I do OMAD 5 days a week and two days 18/6. Also, 5 days a week resistance training (2-3 exercises for one muscle a day, HIT). I am gaining muscles without any additional protein powders just my regular meal, nothing special but always include some meat or eggs or both.
Thanks for the study reference. At what amount of protein intake does it start to tax or harm your kidneys?
How would eating more protein in OMAD work for Type 2 Diabetics? I’m aware that Type 2 Diabetics do not absorb nutrients very well which is why we are always hungry. Perhaps we can train our bodies to uptake more protein
Now we need to know whether we absorb lean protein better than protein with fat and/or fiber and/or sugars. If I recall correctly, sugars don't actually enhance absorption, while fat and fiber likely merely slow absorption. Perhaps slowing absorption improves total absorption?
I currently go out of my way to eat lean protein immediately after a workout, then eat moderate fat the rest of the time. As for intermittent fasting, I like to fast until my resistance training, and fast a day or two on weekends, but follow a "normal" schedule the rest of the time.
One problem with estimating lean mass is that hydration throws the numbers off, so I don't believe I really know what my lean body mass actually is. The best I can do is weigh in the morning, and see the trend of change in the estimated lean body mass (impedance scale.) I believe lean mass is underestimated for keto and fasting because the muscles are less hydrated than usual, and I think muscle is where most of the water goes / comes from. Perhaps the liver, too, but it's not nearly so large as total muscle. I'm sure this has all been studied. I don't think there's a good way to maintain consistent hydration, even if you don't fast or eat keto.
Interesting how everyone all at once pulled back on suggesting fasting or OMAD . It’s almost like they all got the same memo from someone with influence .
I´ve been on keto over a year now. I never plan my eating or fasting. I eat when ever i am hungry and fast the rest of the time. I might go 3-5 days with OMAD and 1-2 days 2MAD. I let the body make the desitions and i live how it says. So my fasting periods has huge slide from 10 to 27 hours. When i eat, i eat so much that i am satisfyed but not too bloaded.
And on of the thing that impacts on that fasting period is what am i doing. If i consume lots of energy i will get hungry faster. If i don´t do anything physical i sure don´t need much of energy and the fasting period is konger.
I already knew this way before these studies since I have been doing IF for 18 years, gaining muscle just like eating 6 meals per day, the only thing that matters is eating enough protein, calories, nutrients and that's it, the effect will be similar to any other type of eating.
funny, i knew this simply from my own experience. when i went OMAD, i didn't have any decrease in growth or strength
What a relief. I hated breaking up protein to 30 to 40 grams per meal for 3 to 4 meals a day. Now I can bust it out in 1 meal with snacking.
If I'm doing OMAD but am sticking to a keto diet should I still alternate one week on and one week off?
I really lol forward to the day when Thrive Market would serve customers outside of USA.
I do OMAD but have increased my calories about 1,000 since now I am weight lifting / cardio heavy. Went from 205lbs to 185 lbs in 2 months!! Now I’m trying to get lean muscle.
👍"Animal-based Protein" first meal and another last meal.♥️ That's how i make sure that positive and autophagic results can be achieved combining with IF of 18:6 or 20:4 when I do 2MAD. 💪
We now need to know ie how long does ingesting 30 grams of protein take to be absorbed. We can figure out the rest.
Few months ago you're talk with dr rhonda patrick and dr peter attia stated that EBM studies of time restricted feeding especially skipping your breakfast is not good because muscle protein synthesis is being compromised. Now a new study revealed that the data is wrong. Im now confused which science to follow...😵💫
I do OMAD out of self-defense essentially.....if I eat during the day, I can end up in a coma on the couch, depending on what I ate.....eggs are the least problematic, but most anything else puts me somewhere between a lazy brain fog, and as I say - a deep nap when I dont otherwise want or need one, as I sleep very well at night. Also, not eating during the day keeps me razor sharp mentally. I would love to figure out why I have this reaction to food, as it would make my life a lot easier. As such, this video is reassuring in that I can at least get enough protein on OMAD, or at least close to it, if not the micronutrients. I depend on shroom powder, greens powder and a good ol' multi for that I guess. YOU DA MAN!
I think being tired after eating just means we have some sort of insulin resistance
Thank you and i hope you translate your videos to arabic ❤
4:10. Yes, but for how long? Just 4 hours? Amino acid pool can be full but if the MPS is not running to its max capacity (e. g. meals spread out some hours), then it is worth nothing.
Doesn't your body also recoup protein from breaking down old cells ?
So question if we can absorb more protein then maybe EAAs might be better than people think
I don't do omad, but 1 of my meals everyday is 1.5lbs of 97/3 ground beef, so I never have a problem hitting my protein numbers.
