Hey Thomas, Can you do an update on this video, ua-cam.com/video/qmiaeci9dSs/v-deo.html
You were sharing biohack on taking advantage of insulin sensitivity. I understand new info is always coming out :)
Hi, is egg whites a lean protein to break intermittent fasting?
Thanks, Thomas. I have now joined your email list. BTW, I recently took your advice and ditched my low carb (Walmart) shakes. Although they're sweetened with Inulin, they contain whey protein concentrate, which you have said evokes an insulin response much higher than "table" sugar.
In another video you said that we could break a fast with a few shrimps with some rice noodles but here you said to avoid shellfish. You also said to avoid lean beef in another video when breaking fast, I am really confused 🤪
Is it OK to take B1 tablet during fasting?
Just coming off of my longest ever fast 90hrs, I broke it with some veggie soup. Sitting here really proud of myself and thought I would tell someone. This guy is a big help when fasting!
Well done!
1. high glycemic load foods
2.cashews and almonds
3. shellfish
4.saturated fats
5. vegetables
Thank you Thomas! 😊
Thanks Thomas Pen.
You outlines are APPRECIATED 🤓
Look at all the brown profiles
you saved me 10 minutes, thank you. I always like the videos so there's a place for me in heaven anyway
But @ThomasDeLauer spends his time putting these together, the least we can do is watch so he gets the adsense. Geesh. And he's not bad on the eyes 😉
Thank You, Thomas for this good information on your channels-Keto/ Intermittent Fasting. My Mom and I are changing our Lifestyle together! We are so blessed to have your channels to help us Navigate into these areas. I am excited to be reversing Diabetes.
I have been fasting for 7 days tomorrow I break it and I’m so happy that I found this video I feel great not even hungry ❤
dont break the fast! wait until the fast breaks you!
:DDDD
Funny. Thanks for the laugh.
@Wolf Warrior You’re welcome 😊 I’m on day 5 of my 6 day fast 😅 laughing helps 👍
Yikes😂 All the best on your fast! I've never went more than 48 hours haha, and that was for an event.
@@sandyd4271 Day 5 is all the farther I could ever go, I'll get to 7 days eventually
Foods to Avoid:
(1) Foods with high glycemic load
- Have a little bit of sodium in your blood prior to breaking your fast
- Avoid 25G plus carbs
(2) Almonds and Cashews
(3) Shellfish
(4) Saturated Fats
- avoid MCT oil
- use olive oil instead
(5) Vegetables
- especially insoluble fiber: kale, celery, carrots etc.
- avoid salad!
In short, avoid carbs and break your fast with lean protein!
Disha Patel not all hero’s wear capes, thank you kind sir.
yes sir, u are beautiful for this
My problem is he says in another video he suggests to break a fast with MCT oil for weightloss. Lol so confused
@@teresa-amberwelch-mcfarlen7644 I literally did that for mths 2 yrs ago after watching his videos 🤷
6. Jelly beans
7. Fluffer Nutter sandwiches
"By the Laws of Osmolarity!" my new battle cry, right up there with "By Grathbar's Hammer!" in Galaxy Quest, couldn't resist, great info
This was so helpful! I'm new and enjoying all of the information I'm learning. You have a great way of breaking things down. Thank you so much ❤
Hey, Thomas. I've lost over 60 lbs in the past 17 months doing Keto. I found your channel a few months ago, and I enjoy what you are doing here. The information has been invaluable in taking my Keto and IF to the next level. Keep up the excellent work!
that awesome!
I do ADF (40-42 hrs). I break my fast by munching on macadamia nuts & sunflower seeds WHILE I’m cooking up a big fat omelette in lots of butter! And I fill that omelet with cheese, a meat, and onions/spinach and I top it with a bit of sour cream or ketchup (or both lol). And I’ve not had any problems. I’m down 62 pounds 😊.
Great 👍👏👏👏👏Well done 😀🤗
Sometimes some things are over thought.
@@mogarcia9755 so true. I often break my fast with a salad and ive lost weight and feel great
you can always abuse your body... especially when you're young, but it's still biologically stressful... many diseases people suffer from, were the result of doing something "harmless" but consistently for 20-30 years... it's a cumulative effect... like putting a little money in the bank (or taking it out...) It's not the amount, it's the regularity over time that creates the effect... (in this case, wealth or poverty)
@@sigma_six when u put it that way....good point. Food for thought. That's why, as much as they say u can eat all u want with OMAD....i still make sure i try and eat healthy...esp at my age 47
brother i started fasting again to realized i was doing it all wrong, now is been a 2 weeks and i already seeing results , not just in my body weight and shape but in my mood .thanks again
So easy to listen to, I love that you also explain the science but then simplify
Awesome channel!
Just returned to the fasting life style. I broke my back a While ago and keto was the main reason I didn't gain any weight. In fact I lost weight. So thanks again for all the information you put out.
Same here
Did you consider going carnivore at the time?
Pre-loading with sodium before breaking fast is something I had not thought of. I tend to add minerals to my water when I fast, but I will certainly make this change. Also the list is an excellent guide on how to not hurt yourself unintentionally breaking a fast. Thanks Thomas!
Me, too. This struck me as very easy to implement and sounds like it can make a huge difference. I'm excited to try it tomorrow.
@@river4462 so when you fast you use distilled water? you do not replentish minerals (just kidding, like you mention, just add a little)? I always add minerals to my water (himalayan salt usually). but would add that those on limited salt diets tend to die younger too. I agree, anything taken to the extreme is a problem. Moderation and balance is key
@@river4462 Unlike you, I respect Thomas's work and have followed him for some time. I'm the age where my peers are on over an average of 12 meds, while I am on Zero meds, My primary care is a chiropractor and I don't subscribe to the allopathic model at all. I'm glad you've found your path and also have (like me) raise children to reflect wise choices. I will say my choices have evolved over the years since the 70's. I have a very simple goal with my life, "To die young at a very very old age" :)
@@river4462 love kombucha (we make our own) along with ferminting and kefir. Our ages appear to be close. Now I have decrease my caloric intake and also now fast a fair amount. With quarterly extended fast (5 to 8 days). No adult beverages except on special occassions (fine dinner or on a cruise having a fine meal). I haven't smoke in over 45 years but I am pondering a pipe. I might wait about 10 more years and then consider it again. Since I get to hunt wild game, we also have quality meats. Likewise, I also feel blessed beyond measure and comprehension. Shalom.
I do 16-8 every single day. I workout five days a week always fasted. I break my fast with four scrambled eggs in butter, and 3-4 peeled cucumbers, and 1 peeled apple.
Wooooow! Glad I checked in again. I was breaking my fast with bone broth and shrimp or scallops! Good to know! Thanks Thomas, I appreciate any info for women over 50
I break my extended (2 day) fasts with a pack of high quality imported sardines packed in olive oil (from Portugal). They are a bit more expensive than the ones in US grocery stories, but the quality of the product and the taste makes it worth the extra cost. It definitely works for me, lost 82 lbs so far this year and have 23 left to reach my goal.
I'm 36 hours in and cravings are kicking in, this couldn't have been uploaded at a better time
Your videos are really informatives and well made. I lovve it when you go to the point and stay objective
I’ve been fasting for 48hrs, just lemon water, black coffee, water, mint tea. Hospital visit, first time fasting and I’m surprised to find that I feel very ok, not starving, quite energetic, no joint pains, and I’m going to start keto after todays hosp appointment (colonoscopy)
I like to imagine how small my stomach is and the way I eat 3 meals a day and not being active… I have def been abusing my stomach, stretching it to its limits with 3 meals just to use the energy to sit and do nothing 😭
Get a colon flush,start fresh and eat fermented foods a few days take probiotics, our bacteria is the key to wellness Tom missed that
I’m sorry but keto isn’t a healthy diet! I tried keto .I looked crappy.I eat high protein with low carbs
And fasting
i had to fast for 72 hours before my colonoscopy. i'm telling you, i felt so good! it redefined how i approach food and it allowed me to break through that mental block of believing that i had to eat every time my stomach growled. 😂
Hey everyone! I am a MD at NYU Langone in manhattan. I love Thomas’ incredibly well researched videos. Big props! The thiamine deficiency stuff is so interesting. In fact we avoid giving sugar to chronic alcoholics (always severely thiamine deficient) before repleting their thiamine levels because it can trigger a form of lasting psychosis called Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome.
I'm a med student in Australia and I absolutely agree!! I love Thomas's videos so much.
What about eggs? If I break my fast in the morning I just can't see having a 'dinner' type of meal.
@@mariasouther2199 so have steak and eggs. Kind of a hybrid breakfast/dinner ☺️
Dang!!! I got sober w/ Rootbeer!!!
do they teach this stuff in Med School?
I've broken a lot of fasts the wrong way 😆 So helpful!!! Thank u!
Definately love the tips.. being relatively new at this...every pearl of wisdom helps!
I appreciate giving out the info in the beginning. Makes me wanna watch your videos more.
Hey Thomas! Does this apply to every protocol of fasting? Is it as important if you fast for 14 hours or 20 hours? Thanks!
@ThomasDeLauer Perfect video, perfect timing for me. I'm on an extended fast, on day 5 water and coffee fast. I put Himalayan salt in my coffee, water. Still feeling good. I'm always a little confused as to what is best to break the fast to keep my results. This is excellent information, thank you.
10 months ago he said mct oil and shellfish was a great way to break a fast. Think you should look for answers more then just here
Salt in the coffee??? No!! 🤢🤢 That's disgusting! Why not take the salt first and then the coffee? 😅
I really love your videos and I thank you for being my guide on my journey to optimal health
This was helpful. Is there another video like this one that gives more food choice options and why? Thank you!
This is the exact video I needed at this time. My fasts have been going great but I’m doing much wrong when breaking them. Thanks as always!
10 months ago he said mct oil and shellfish was a great way to break a fast. Think you should look for answers more then just here
Mewtax Quite possibly why I’m doing everything wrong lol
I started fasting 2 weeks ago..I guess I was doing everything wrong..lol
Thanks, please create more videos on the best meal plan when breaking a fast
I had no idea how to break a fast!!! THANK YOU!!!🙂
Thank you Tomas you speak crisp and clear . very good presenter keep up the good work .
Foods to avoid breaking your fast with:
1. Frito's Corn Chips
Word.
Wish you hadn't said that. Now Fritos are all I'm gonna want while fasting.
Also a sleeve of salty Pringles.
Oh poop! 😒
I LOVE those!!
Oh, I love them!😍 Dammit!😋
Nah man, just don't go overboard with the carbs and don't over eat. Stay on track with IF an you'll still be burning fat and seeing progress. I've lost 25 lbs since 7/17/20 with 16:8 (sometimes 18:6) x2 meals a day and moderate exercise. No need to complicate things.
Love your videos, I just started listening to you and I have lost 50 pounds and then I found your channel. I have about 15 more to go. I have been wondering if there was a way to tighten up my skin. Also I just want to eat healthier. You are what I have been looking for to combat my issues. Thank you 💕. Sharing you with friends too!!
Always great information! I appreciate your work very much. The one thing I would like to ask is if you could be a little more all inclusive in your info given to cater all styles of eating (vegetarians, vegans, carnivores) I feel that I as a vegan am left out of the loop a lot. Thank you again!
If we are on OMAD , how is it possible to break the fast without high carbs intake
Just eat some fish.. or drink some bone broth + add some salt. :) then you can eat your real meal an hour later.. so he actually had a video suggesting it's better to be doing 2MAD.. I consider it like snacking in advance to break the fast.. Since my eating window is 4 hr.. I just break fast with a snack, then 1 hr later.. i eat my full meal... ..
If I do OMAD, I eat a large low carb high fat meal with a bulletproof coffee. I don't get hungry until hour 21 or 22 and only for like 5 minutes or less
He explains foods to beak the fast. That’s doesn’t mean you can’t eat all the food intake at a later period following the fast break. So say eat some salmon or chicken small portion. Let your body start the digestive process. Then 30min to an hour later eat all you want. The point is what is the very first food your gut is taking first to prepare it for a proper meal
I just broke my fast with almonds and now feel horrible, so you're on point!
I had rice and eggs hahaha, oops.
What to eat to break a fast ? Any suggestions ?🌷
Thank you Thomas this is very helpful and yes more vids about after fasting
Would love to know what you think about veggie smoothies after a fast and in general as there's mixed info about them ...thanks man !

As every body is mentioning, this video is confusing. Based on Thomas suggestions, I've always break my fasting period with scallops slightly sheared with MCT oils. I think it would help if Thomas started the video admitting a previous wrong concept, and then, add a new one due to better research. I share the confusion and deception with the rest of the comments.
I thought he used to say that one should break a fast with fat and protein e.g. eggs and bacon
@@shelydon78 Same here ? He must have found some new research without stating it.
He has lots of conflicting advice. It's pretty well known. Just learn the general concepts and check other sources too.
I agree me too!
I agree! Every time I watch his videos he makes it sound so restrictive, convoluted, and complicated that it discourages me from wanting to do it and then I'm like, "wait a second, I've been intermittent fasting for 2.5 years already and I feel great, I shouldn't feel discouraged" lmao! His advice is informative many times, but others it is just so confusing. And idk if all the advice is just good for the gym rat type of person or if it is for overall health longevity bc many times those things don't totally line up perfectly. I'm all for bulking and shredding but lately, after many heart attacks in my family I'm more concerned with longevity and heart, brain, etc health.
My team and I find your video quiet informative and interesting thank you for encouraging and teaching each one of us.
Have a blessed festive season from our team in South Africa 🇿🇦
Thanks for being very informative and succinct. I appreciate the science. It helps me incorporate the knowledge. Not so in depth that the knowledge is lost. Thanks.
Hi Thomas, great video. A while back you did a video about what to break your fast with depending on your goals, and you considered three goals, longevity, fat loss, and muscle growth. You said if you're goal is fat loss, then keto coffee is the best thing to break your fast with, bone broth is best if you're going for longevity and lean protein is best if you're going for muscle growth. In this video, you say you don't recommend saturated fats, even MCT oil, for fast breaking. My goal is weight loss, so my question is, have you changed your mind about breaking a fast with keto coffee? (I should specify that I'm strictly keto during my feeding windows and my goal is fat loss) Thanks man
Do whatever your body feels good with ! Some people need more carbs to get by, others need less. Fruits in moderation is a must in peoples diet , nothing wrong with that. There’s anti-caffeine people who need a boost of energy so they’ll have a banana, yes it has a lot of sugar but if it’s going to help you then why not? Just give your body what is asking for, if you feel good about it!
Essential aminos then a bulletproof coffee then keto meal a few hours later
I also remember him not long ago saying break your fast with bone broth, ACV, MCT oil and coffee! I do and i feel fine!
Thank you for this interesting and informative video. Would salted and lightly oiled (sesame oil) Nori be a good thing to nibble on at the end of a 36 hour fast?
The fact that you opened up with why I should break my fast with made me keep watching the video 😁
How does the limit carbs to under 25 grams part work with your videos on post workout meals - which you reccomend us doing in a fasted state - in which you say it might be goos to have 20 - 30 grams of glucose (with salt) + 10 - 15 grams of fructose? Doesn't this video contradict that advice?
Which is the best strategy for someone doing keto/Carnivore/Carneto who wants to lose body fat AND build muscle? Esp for someone over age 50.
This guy consistently contradicts himself.
Seriously though. It's so confusing and frustrating.
I've been watching videos on how to successfully fast but it seems like he's always going against something he said.
In his video, he mentioned breaking a fast with some shrimps or scallops. And he emphasized on the shellfish.
@@Momo-kq9hd No he didn't. He said shellfish is a great protein source but it is not good to break your fast with it. He advised on eating it later in the day. He did however say that lean protein like chicken breast is good for breaking your fast.
@@henrymaier9607 he said shellfish/lean fish is the best to break fast with in another video of his. Chicken breast comes as a second option. I think that’s probably why viewers are a bit confused with the messages he’s trying to send across.
Very helpful, thank you so much for this. You answered a lot of questions I had.
Thanks this was great info. I was totally breaking my fast incorrectly!
Thanks so much! Perfect I’m on day 5 of a fast.. had to eat salt every day at bed time because my headaches were so bad it made me sick.. a little salt and problem solved
This does not add up. On the other video in april you mentioned that breaking a fast (for woman) with Shellfish is very good because of the iodine, zinc, etc.....
Exactly! In the other "what I love to break my fast with" to. Also he said eat mct. Don't understand how he can change completely in 10 months. How is it in another 10?
In his defense, he *DOES* specifically mention you can supplement zinc to combat hypothyroidism if you can't/don't want shellfish... so at least there's options.
His focus is on zinc and thyroid function, so his heart is in the right place... sometimes nutrition is about the lesser of 2 evils and it's not always a win-win.
I was thinking’s the same. Not to mention I had some prawns to break my fast just before I watched this video.
He changes his opinion over time based on information.
I also spotted this conflicting advice and got confused🧐🤔
On point!!! Thanks for this video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I love this video. It got right to the point. Thanks!
Just finished a 36 hour fast and wish I watched this before I broke the fast haha. I did all 4 wrong. Thank you though. Lesson learned.
lol there's always next time!
When you have the ENGLISH Version of the episode, could you send an alert? :)
Hi Tom thanks for the video. I really love your t shirts especially the one you wearing now. Who does your wardrobe and is it available online?
Love your advice and in depth scientific reasoning !! Best on the web
I like that you mention refeeding. Technically refeeding syndrome also is characterized by rapid drop in serum K+, Mg in addition to Na. It is actually the rapid drop in K+ that can be the most dangerous effect of refeeding due to its effect on cardiac function. We supplement and replace these (IV infusion or by mouth) to correct the depletion during refeeding. I work as a dietitian in intensive care and we see this all the time. Typically occurs after 3-4 days of inadequate nutrition (or fasting as well) and happens very shortly after reintroducing nutrients info the body
hi, should we worry if were only doing 36 hour fasts? ive been researching and everyone says different things how to break the fast. one video says bone broth, then steamed veggies, then meat........then thomas says lean protein. also if you drink water with salt, potassium and magnesium, during the fast, should one still worry? i feel like crap when i break my 24 hour fast and i m anxious to go any longer due to feeling ill when i break a fast. i eat normal carb based meals but smaller amounts.
hi, can you help with that it has happened to me
what can in do to recover, not falling again?
Wish I'd heard the "don't break the fast with a salad" advice before yesterday. It hurt my tummy and I got to spend some quality time in the bathroom today.
Thank you for the information it helped a lot. I did exactly what you want us not to do. I had a big salad right at my fasting break. Might gut hurt for six hours after that. I’ll never do that again. I would have never realize what was happening without watching your channel. Thank you.
This made it even simpler without omitting key deets. Thanks, T.
So at the end of a fast, unless you have the exact right foods, don't eat. Starvation is better.
Basically never eat. EVER. PHOTOSYNTHESIS ONLY.
@@zacvitanzo4760 😂
That’s exactly how I feel 🤦🏾♀️ 16 hour fast turns into 20 😢😢
He is complicating things too much ..... Too much do this and do that, and don't do this and don't do that. And on top of that, I don't understand his logic on some of the points.
@@oysteinsoreide4323 religions does that too
Thomas, a lot of us are on OMAD keto (one meal a day), we dont have another meal after to leave saturated fats and shell fish to. We may cook our only meal with coconut oil, and our only meal is likely to have eggs, some beef/chicken/fish and vegetables. How do we apply the principles that you teach on this video, to our only meal? Please help.
I would like the answer for this too please
Same for me.
Me four.
Me 5
im going to assume you do it like me and fast for 23h then you do 1h feeding window. you can break your fast as he says in the video, and then half hour later, just eat your main meal :) I found this worked for me while doing omad
Wow thanks for the last tip! I’ve been doing omad and I usually break my fast with a green veggie shake & then have my protein after I drank my shake. Gonna switch them around.
Love how you explain things.
I just watched a video you did a few months ago and you said to break your fast with shellfish... :| I'm very confused...
Well, he makes videos everyday. What do you expect? He's making stuff up.
Its VERY confusing I literally just watched a video a few days ago that he suggested for weight loss to break a fast with MCT...
This guy is all over the place
He has very situational videos that he usually says are situational. For example "for weight loss to break a fast with MCT." What if youre already at your ideal weight? Lean protein, ESSENTIALLY. Theres so much science stuff it can sound like it contradicts, and sometimes it can, but its usually situational.
@@teresa-amberwelch-mcfarlen7644 me 2. how about 10 more months.. Should we eat all the things he said in this video then?
Is MCT oil bad to break a fast too ? I thought you mentioned MCT oil was safe to use after fasting
I fast around 18 hours average a day. I usually break my fast with 3 hard boiled eggs then I drink water, just wait a little bit and have an avocado, wait a little bit and have some pistachios and walnuts and a spoon of peanut butter with more water… I eat all that in a 30 minute period eating very slowly… I’m loaded with top notch protein and really good essential fats and virtually no carbs. Since I’m a construction worker I need a good chunk of energy for my day and that’s the best I came upon watching his and doctor ekberg videos. Two of my favourite guys who changed my lifestyle regarding Keto+IF
Thank you Thomas💪🏿
I’m in day 3 of fasting and I can see the colors of the numbers 🥴
😂😂😂😂😂😩😩😩😩😩 I know what you mean 😢
Hahaha 😂
And you would eat them if you could just have enough energy to chase them down. #Felt
🥸
I thought we break our fast slightly with coffee and cream and MCT oil? Is that not good anymore? Or are we talking a meal? And how do you follow these steps on OMAD? Thanks again love your videos...
That doesn't really make sense to break a fast with coffee lol. Coffee inherently inhibits nutrient absorption by putting you into "fight or flight," [you've made eye contact with the tiger] and "why would the body digest breakfast, if you're about to become lunch." So definitely do not break your fast with coffee bro, you're making your fast pointless
Hmmmm. I was breaking my fast (Omad) with oysters, herring and sardines (with sea kelp) because of your other video that said to do that. I’m glad to have the clarification.
I did experience B1 deficiency side effects, I’m not quite fat adapted and almost out of IR, but not quite, plus I’m very sensitive. This is good information for me and I appreciate it sincerely
Lore M : which are the symptom of B1 defincency please?
@@nicoletakasamas9201 the way I found out was watching a Dr Betg video on how to diagnose decencies. He has several, just look him up here on UA-cam. That said, cracked heels are one sign. Skin issues are often B, C and D but it’s quite complicated. Dry cuticles are biotin. Bleeding gums and bruises are Vit C. Red eyes are kidney and liver I think. I saw a young Indian man who had a similar video. There are many, so look around here, you’ll find them.
@@spinnettdesigns 👍☺ thanks
For me was Vertigo after 2 years of keto.I do take now Vit B complex and i'm just fine so far.I just wanted to know if you had vertigo too
@@nicoletakasamas9201 Ive horrendous tinnitus for 40+ years but no vertigo. I’m sorry I hat you suffered with that and I hope that it won’t return.
Nutritional yeast and bee pollen are both wonderful (and keto) sources of B vitamins. I take them every day
@@spinnettdesigns I was just going to suggest nutritional yeast! It's really great on cauliflower rice.
Wow, this is great information. So no shakes like ka’chava?? Thank you for sharing!
Bone broth, egg whites, turkey, lean chicken, lean fish. My top 5. I have a question for you Thomas, for someone who does 18/6 4 or 5 days a week, how do you feel about supplementing with electrolytes during the fast. Specifically Magnesium Sodium Potassium?
I saw a video by him yesterday where he gave an hour by hour of what to have during a 20 hour fast. He added to have electolytes as well as magnesium during the fasting hours.
How long after your first meal do you recommend that you eat vegetables or the next meal?
You mentioned Pea Protein in another video. What is a good Pea Protein powder without or severely reduced Glyphosate ? Also would a soup of Bone or veggie broth with pea protein powder and Thai rice noodles with Sriracha for spice... as a meal to break a fast as a pescatarian. Thank you ! Your videos are great !
Couple questions. Almond milk would be better than raw almonds I assume for breaking fast like for smoothies? Am I wrong to think this?
Also, thoughts on good quality yogurt for breaking fast as is has protein.
Looking forward to hearing from ya! :)
Hey Thomas, loving your videos. I am a 40 year old vegan female who is on day 5 of intermittent fasting. I see you are not as strict as Dr Sten Ekberg which is a relief being vegan although I appreciate all his knowledge aswell. You just make it a little easier :) What would you recommend as a lean vegan protein to break the fast? What about pea protein powder? The one I have has 8 grams of protein per serving (1 tablespoon.)
I’m sure you’ve tried it by now but yes, that will work just fine. It’s what he actually recommends in another video in your case.
Pea proteine
But why would you fast and be all pure to just add mega processed “foo”? It doesn’t make sense to do all that work restoring yourself to just put lab food back into it the first thing?
I don't think Dr Sten Ekberg was ever obese, so Thomas' first-hand experience is invaluable.
I've broken my fast with pizza multiple times, still lost weight and feel good. I think this could be valuable information for those who like to take things seriously, but the reason I love IF is that you really don't have to, it still works.
How long was the fast? I’ve broken a 3 day fast with Chinese food and spent the night vomiting.
@@LandOfTheFallen Chinese food as in Chinese fast food I assume
Another great topic, you're reading our minds
Thomas, thank you for the great info! My wife is a vegetarian. What do you feel is the best source of protein for her to break her fast, or just the best way for her to break get fast?
I almost always break my 18-20 hour fast with eggs that are either scrambled on olive oil, or boiled, and also some kind of cheese (goat cheese or Gouda). Is it too fatty for a fast-breaker?
Just broke my first 36. At some probiotic gummies, 2 Whole Foods dill pickles and dag-gum pound of Atlantic Salmon, roasted with 125g of roasted asparagus. LOL. Maybe too much? But that’s off the heels of a compound movement gym session at the end of fast - chest, legs and deads!
What to eat to break a 20-24 hour fast doing OMAD? I drink 1/2 gallon water with lemon juice and pink Himalayan Sea Salt before noon. Then I work out later afternoon and drink Bulletproof coffee during my workout and then break my fast completely with some beef jerky minutes before my 1st meal dinner which is typical a big salad and a keto type meal. Sometimes within the 4 hour feeding time I'll eat strawberries and cream. A video about this would be helpful. Thanks for all your wisdom and insight
Oh my gosh I’ve been eating salad to break my fast lol I learned so much! Thank you
What perfect timing I'm about to end my 72 hour fast and was thinking about what to end my fast with lol
Break it with a 24 hr fast
@@MochaZilla you saying go another day?? I feel like I can I dont feel hungry at all
@@renegomez6679 you always could...its up to you and only you know your body. Cole Robinson has said many times that if you feel good, like you say you feel, then why not just push a little more? Its just another 24 hrs...just make sure you are getting enough electrolytes!
I break my fast with a shake of: Pea Protein Isolate, MCT oil, tbsp on coffee & with the base of just water. Would this be a perfect break-fast?
Hey Thomas, I love you’re content. My question about breaking the fast is, I know you said chicken, beef or fish first but does that mean now in the same meal with as a salad or carbs? Meaning is it that I just have to make sure that the first few bites are chicken or is it that I only eat chicken for that meal? Thx.
With fasting or in general, how do you feel about sauerkraut ? Is it a good thing to eat a little of to boost gut microbiome and is it safe later in the day after the initial break with lean protein?
Yoo Thomas, can we get a little clarification?
In another video you said that on keto, you should break your fast with fats, then eat more protein later. But in this one you’re saying no saturated fats when breaking…. you mentioned that we should start the day with egg yolks etc so that’s what I’ve been doing. Now I’m second-guessing it - what should I really do?
This video is more for prolonged fasting. 36 hours, 48 hours and beyond. Best food to break fast is probably bone broth. Have a cup of bone broth then an hour later eat a small meal and then another bigger one after that. Again, this is for breaking fast after prolonged fasting.
@@RoyaDani I don't recall him saying that in the video. He just says you don't want to break a fast with anything other than lean protein pretty much. So yeah, I think he needs to clarify.
That sounds all good and dandy,but I'm going to continue to drink my BPC every morning,and also to break my fasts. But thank you!
I’m bit confuse, you previous said it’s okay to break fasting bulletproof coffee basically coffee + MCT oil.
So... how long after breaking you fast can you actually eat (veggies, more carbs, more fats, etc)? I suppose it depends what your fasting goals are, but would it be better (autophagy, fat burning, etc) to do a shorter fast 16-17h broken with lean protein, or do a 20+h fast with a more balanced, larger meal.
good question
First of all, thank you for your content and all your videos. You're helping many people!
Secondly, I've been hearing about consuming avocado pits for nutrition. Seems the common practice is drying them at a low temp in the oven or food dehydrator then grinding em down into a powder to then add to a smoothie.
Some say this is dangerous, others say its very healthy as the pit contains up to 70% of the nutrients of the fruit. Idk if this is your style, but a lot of people would like some light shed on this subject. Perhaps a short video would do the trick!
Thank you, again, for helping me along with many others in their health! You are a great person!
The avocado seed is mostly just starch. It does have some toxins and inflammatory chemicals which is why some people probably say its dangerous, but they do not have enough levels to make them worse than a lot of other seeds. It's not going to have much health benefit or harm. It's probably good for starving people and that's about it. If you're not starving then you're better off eating something else.
Thoughts on caffeine intake, taking supplements, taking creatine prior to afternoon fasting window of 4 hours?
Thanks for not wasting time, like so many clickbait tubers do. Keep the fasting content coming. Talk about what herbs or spices or teas break a fast. Tumeric? Cayenne? Herbal teas?
