You know, it's funny (in an amazing way), but when my Dad had cancer, the treatment made him so nauseous and uninterested in food that he just couldn't keep anything down/didn't bother eating. We were told to make sure he drank water all day, sipping from a water bottle which should always be next to him. The cancer nurse said people usually die accidentally due to dehydration caused by the treatment. Anyway, he didn't eat normally for a long time. Months really. He (6'2") went from a chubby 230 to a lean mean 160. He got rid of his cancer, his diverticulitis, hives, hair loss, etc. It was amazing. He looked 30 years younger. He lived for another 26 years. He died in 2015 at age 93.Must have been the autophogy. Thanks Dr. Berg.
@Lord Bang-a-Lot No, he didn't die from cancer. He never regained the weight. He died of a broken heart. My amazing mom had died 18 months before and it just killed him. They were so devoted. Makes me cry, thinking about it.
Started keto on Monday, it's now Friday and I have lost 2 kilograms. I'm 63, type 2 diabetes, fatty liver, and high blood pressure. My intention is to reverse all 3 diseases and throw the medications out. Thank you for the inspiration to take this journey Dr. Berg. 🙏🙏🙏
I totally reversed my insulin resistance by going on keto and doing intermittent fasting. (18/6). Have lost 30 pounds in less than 3 months without being hungry and by basically eating more great fatty foods. Thanks to Dr Berg and Dr Sten Ekberg! Could NEVER have done it without them.
Wow! Thank you for sharing! Could you tell us more about it and would you be willing to submit it here, so that we can share it? Please use this link: www.drberg.com/add-client-success-story
If you haven't notice, healthy people like Dr. Berg don't need our help staying healthy. It's the sick and dying people that are affected by a so called virus. Don't wait for Corporate America to inform you that healthy people are not in danger.
Growing my own vegetables, I can pick fresh kale and other greens with flowers and make a salad with some protein to prolong my work on the farm before I eat a full meal. I am 80 and cut grass with a scythe for 2 or three hours each day.
Our bodies have the capability to heal from all these diseases that we have, through the food we eat we just need to educate ourselves on how to do it and people like you are helping us to do so, thank you DR!!!
Right. Educate me on how I can throw out my Zoloft? I stop taking it and I cannot function. Literally. And I get hostile. Not funny cute hostile . I’d love to know. Always comming from healthy younger people.
@@Kelly-pp1et what about hiv/aids be a disease since I don't think are body can fight against it without drugs though I haven't researched about it before so it's just my guess
I just recently had chemo and then radiation therapy. The doctors were surprised at how well I did in terms of not having bad side effects. I was eating keto and doing intermittent fasting. Maybe that's why.
Bravo Lydia and Sharon. Me as well, radiation only, but have been in Keto and lots of veggies, and intermittent fasting.Lost 35 lbs so far, and drs were very pleased with my recovery from both the breast cancer and radiation side effects! This is now a life style change for me.
That is precisely why! Keto focuses on little to no sugar diet and cancer cells feed on sugar. All cancer and other disease patients would benefit tremendously from listening to this lovely doctor 🤸🏻♀️
Yes I have read that this is the best thing you can do on chemo or radiotherapy. The autophagy is a big factor with decreased side effects plus no doubt other unknown ones at this stage
This information is so good. My wife is so hooked on the benefits of cruciferous veggies, that she now runs a thriving Microgreens business. She's so much healthier than ever and has been off all meds for about a year now.
I'm going into day 5 of a water fast. Feel amazing. Down about 7 lbs. I feel so good that I am thinking of extending it a few days beyond 5 which would definitely be the max for me. I've only ever done 5 days and they were always a bit of a struggle the first 2 days but for some reason this one has been easy. Watching all these videos for motivation. Thank you Dr. Berg, your info is invaluable.
I’m so thankful for your videos! What inspired me a lot was a story of an overweight girl that came to your office and didn’t loose any weight for a month but was not upset because she was feeling great. After that she started to loosing the weight. This is how I’m trying to look at your guidance. I’m not loosing the weight yet but I can feel I’m healing. I have more energy and slept through the night for the first time in years! It took me more then a month to actually achieve IF. But since I did things are changing even tho I’m going through very difficult time of my live with moving, starting a new job and some personal problems. I don’t think I could handle so much physical and emotional strain if it was not for you. Thank you again 🙏
I have been doing a 17 hour a day fast 7days a week for 9 months. Besides going from 225 to 185... I am amazed how much better I feel in every possible way. I am 67 and it has done wonders....The fountain of youth is two things...1) intermittent fasting AND 2) daily exercise of one hour per day.
Before watching Dr. Bergs videos I did never heard of autophagy and now here I am doing my first prolonged fast. Having 52 hours of 72 done. Will repeat it for sure! Thanks
THIS IS THE BEST INFORMATION FOR THE HUMAN BODY'S OVERALL LONG AND SHORT TERM HEALTH! GOD LOVE YOU DR. BERG!!! There! fixed it for ya! No need to thank me!
Wow u look amazing! Definitely is the FTN of youth I finally have abs! Never had it for 30 some years now I’m back at my surfing body shape! Well Lake body now living in Wisconsin 😂
Right! I love cruciferous vegetables steamed and drizzled with olive oil, lemon and Himalayan salt 👌🏼 next week I’m gonna eat just cruciferous veg. It’ll be a great detox and reset. Who’s with me?
For the first time in 15 years I feel healthy and I have an optimal blood pressure. Thanks to following Berg since January 2021. I've also lost 30 kilos. Cravings are gone too.
I think that the best thing we did was to get him out of the hospital and keep him at home with us bringing him in only for necessary appts. Hospital food, bags of sugar draining into your arm is the death knell. The starving did it. The body did just what Dr. Berg says: It cleaned up the cancer. It had nothing to get in the way. Also the familiarity of home, where he could sleep as long as possible, have all of us with him. He was such a lovely, sociable Dad. He loved visitors.
Can you please tell me. If autography fasting with no food or drinks at all, and how long do you do it? I am asking you because I saw you are a Michigan Grandma and I used to live in MI so I felt comfortable asking you. 🙂
OK, I want to say this. It's certainly working for me. I started snacking on raw cruciferous when fasting if I felt I wanted to eat something. First of all, it keeps me busy because it's a lot of crunching! Secondly there is something very healing about it - I can't quite pinpoint it, but my body seems to do a lot better since I have started this. And honestly after not too long I stop eating anyway - it's really minimal. I wish I'd found out about it a lot sooner! BTW, my favorite is organic red cabbage. Pretty awesome, really.
Thank you for your comment. I, too, want to do this kind of fasting, but had no idea what would be safe for snacking on when I need more than just water.
Well! Thank you very much. I just got to the 48 hour mark in my fast and I was going to eat a full regular keto meal but now I'm going to eat some kale and broccoli sprouts and push through to 72 hours.
@@jccgold read label if its under 1 carb, wont break a fast, i use kratom has 2 carbs, and I stay in keto, i need it for pain and stops hunger in 5 min for me
The information you put out is absolutely priceless. Going on 3 yrs of IF, low carb, no sugar. Thanks to you, at age 58 I'm 106 lbs (5'0") exercise daily, eat a huge salad w/lettuce, raw broccoli, avocado daily & no meds.
Love your videos. Helped me start keto and continue keto. Down 30 ish pounds in 1.5 years. IF, ADF and Keto work. Love that your videos are short and right to the point. Very informative and motivating. Thanks 🙏🏻 a bunch! I have 4 pounds left to lose and 8 pounds to lose for my ultimate goal! ❤️
I started again a prolong fasting to stay safe. Already 6 days today. Tomorrow I will start eating very small quantity of cruciferous during 10 days more. Thanks
I am now in my another fasting stage and I can only recomend it for all... Today is 5 day without food and I found that more I do it easier it become. My best is 17 days without food but my experience is best result is from 7-10 days fasting...
Wow that's amazing. I'm not sure I can do that many days without food. I do fast 15-17hrs a day. I'm still now to the keto world. So when you fast for these long periods of time do you just drink water? Anything else? Thank you.
Nothing just water but other time I did it with hymalayan salt 2x a day half coffespoon this is much easier... And dont be affraid of hunger... It will gone in 3 days...
That sounds excessive I'm into keto 8 weeks I do 20 hours a day but I'm evolving all the time because 20 hours is effortless but we still have to find the right balance because too much fasting must have a negative side
@@scottohare8355 nah 😁. Funny thing is I didn't try fasting after bad sleep but after long study ... Did you hear Russians had long secret very well funded program where they tested over 90thousand people and in 80' they started to apply this in to country national hospital guidance but before fully adapted communism broken down in 1988 and long program was forgotten beacouse no money for pharma sharks.... In my language is there document movie on UA-cam ... Type ... LIECBA POSTOM and switch on subtitles so maybe that help to understand power of excessive fasting ....
The cure to any disease comes down to NOT eating frequently or daily. I've begun a two week fast to determine how my body, etc will respond to this temporary change in chemistry.
This info has just turbo charged my keto/IF meal plans! I love your invitation to "try it, see what works for you". Each trial helps me better understand what my particular body *prefers* . You are a wonderful discovery Dr Berg!
Sounds like a good Daniel fast: KJV BIBLE Daniel 10:3 - I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.💝
My 4th day on keto 1 meal a day and i have lost 3kilos but my strength and energi has allready gone up. My sleep has improved. I train hard strength traning and my kilos has gone up 5kg with the same rep range. SUGAR SUCKS. Due to my hard traning i have 50grams of protien from pork and beef on top of the egg protien a day, this has not hindered weight loss, i drink 2 liters of water 1 coffe and 3 cops of different tee a day. This is propaly the best thing i have done for myself in a long time. Thank you doc Berg ❤️👍.
My success story: I have a seasonal allergy for ragweed. I consume a lot of probiotics but fasting turnde out to be s the ultimate remedy. Thanks (again) Dr. Berg! ::)
Thanks for your work. I am 67 and have been vegetarian/vegan since the late 70's. Haven't always made the best choices, however, I learned the body heals. I currently am not on any medications and treat my Self naturally with herbs, salves and teas. I religiously fast 24 times a year.
Thanks again Mister Doctor Berg. Your videos made me realize the negatives of carbs, and positives of fasting. Finally got abs, no more liver inflammation, and feeling 200%!
This makes me so happy! I have come to love my kale smoothie each morning (with a scoop of Dr Berg's Wheatgrass Powder and Electrolyte Powder)! I am still working up to doing prolonged fasting. Am currently doing 20:4 IF. But thrilled to know I can keep the kale smoothie during fasting to heal more! Dr Berg thank you for all these updates on fasting and autophagy! You're the BEST!😄💥👏❤
Hello everyone, yes he did say 'raw'. But chill, arugula makes also part of cruciferous vegetables. You can make a salad dressing with ACV, salt and mct-oil to help you in your fasting and inprove autophagy. Blessings :-)

I am currently getting radiation treatments for breast cancer and only have had 6 treatments with only 10 more to go. I didn’t have to do chemo. I’ve been thinking that I’d like to eat just cruciferous veggies and fast and now seeing this video I’m going to try it. I’ll also try some knotweed extract for resveratrol and I already sprout broccoli seeds for sulforaphane. I started eating those sprouts several years ago. I’ve been eating keto & fasting btw 16-24 hours per day since the spring of 2019. I’ve not gone beyond 54 hours fasting. So wish me luck in repairing and cleaning up my damaged cells.
He is great... I grew up on a farm... no ride to the store....stayed fasting because we didn’t have accessi to junk... and went out back in the garden and only could eat fruit or vegetables.... I was skinny as a pencil
And I stayed slim for years because my mother RARELY had soft drinks or candy bars...we had a small bowl of ice cream after supper each evening and that was it!
Starting a 5 Day Fast with only water and cruciferous vegetables. I’m 6’1 and 240 lbs right now. Quarantine hit me hard lol. My birthday is June 22nd and I’m trying to look leaner in the next 10 days. I’ll be back to share how this goes..
After your 5 day, eat just once a day, I do 22 & 2. I'm your size, was 245 now 180. Also can pretty much eat what I want for my one meal. Good luck to you
@@starfoxboy670 Nice. I wasn't in any kind of hurry but doing the 22 hours of fasting and 2 of dinner time, the 65 pounds came off within 7-8 months. No working out or exercise so it could have been a much quicker deal if I had. Make sure your strict on the eating window, when it's closed don't open it again till the next day.
@@davids9793 I do intermittent fasting but usually not 22 hour windows, only sometimes. Do you mind if I ask you what type of foods do you eat during your two hours of dinner time? I'm curious to know how other people drop/maintain their weight, so I can improve.
@@georgegumdropbuttons269 I'm not on any specific type of diet. I rarely eat out or do fast food. I pretty much eat what I want, even have some ice cream every other day for dessert. Everybody has a different metabolism and results will surely vary but I think for anyone who can do the closed window portion of the process without issues (eating) you will lose your weight.
Thanks for the information Dr. Berg. I'm from India. I found your videos very helpful during this lockdown period. I'm into my IF and eventually lost 20 lb in 4 months. Can you please make a video on Indian vegetables and their nutritional values? We hardly find such cruciferous vegetables except cabbage in the remote areas of India. That would be greatly helpful for Indians. Thanks a lot.
Thank you for this video as it confirms what I have been doing off and on now for over 20 years. It is actually how I healed cancer (and other health issues), lost weight (which really was an added bonus to be faire as my intent with fasting was and always has been to get vibrant health and well being so the weight loss was definitely a bonus!) and how I detox during a fast. I also add in some other things as well for detoxing, so thank you for this, most appreciated!
I get my phyto's from Broccoli nearly every day. Not a lot of broccoli, just a bit. It seems to also help me to deal with my Dark Triad boss. "Dark Triad" traits-narcissism, psychopathy and Machiavellianism
I seen a negative comment about one of Dr Bergs associates and it was a little troubling because I think he is so helpful and honest. I’ve been enjoying this guy and the incredible, straight to the heart, priceless info! Ty sir.
dita4911 5 days a week. Until I rotate to avocados for a while. In one of his videos, or maybe many, he says Vitamin A is a fat soluble vitamin. So I do it that way. Canned spinach is preserved as we know. And the content on the can says 0 vitamin A.
@@KC1up uncooked spinach is bad. Contains lots of oxalates. It needs to be cooked in order to reduce it especially boiling and not consuming the waste water
I remember about 10-15 years ago when my mom was doing fasting for cleansing and weightloss reading centuries old indian manuscripts. Doctors are like that's 'Not good, doesn't help'. What do they say now
@Adrian Wilson No, most doctors like myself want their patients to eat healthy and exercise to get OFF of medications for high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, etc. The goal of Medicine is NOT to just add medications, but when the patients are engorging their fast and junk foods and not exercising, etc then medications can help.
I have been wanting to fast for a year now but couldn't because I have a condition called rt3 where I have to eat or else my body runs through my vitamins and nutrients very fast and gives me severe anxiety and weakness. This information is an absolute life safer and has made fasting possible for me which I thought was impossible. THANK YOU DR. BERG!!!
Did my first 24 Hour Fast Yesterday with an intense lifting workout in between. By hour 22 - I was the worst Bowler in our Family of Six! After 24 hours the Body Doesn’t really want Food Anymore, Because It’s Pissed at You!
This is cool!! .. Next 3+day fast, im gonna steam broccoli and add tumeric, black pepper, and ginger powder. Maybe ginger teas. I wonder if it would help the body's digestive system stay active too? And prevent having to worry about refeed stage

They likely won't from an autophagy standpoint but definitely will form the digestive system standpoint. Part of the benefits of a fast is giving a rest to the gut, liver, pancreas and kidney so they can either rest or work on removing accumulated waste. Also starving bad gut bacteria (the good ones can go without food for longer).
Thank you, forgot that in excitement I could eat. Digestion problems was how I got into OMAD LCHF in the first place. Oh dear, have to save my coli for dinner.
Thankyou ! 2nd day of my fast ......tea with Apple cider vineger and lemon with himilayain salt . That's it .....til now just grabbed a head of blue cabbage. I'm eating ...!
Dr Berg can you please make your supplements available on Amazon please. Otherwise we here in UK especially have no access to your great products and life research! Shipping plus duty tax changes are simply too much to make any purchase of the products in your shop. Many thanks 🙏
Thanks for bringing such useful information and knowledge Dr. Berg. My daughter is. CAPD patient since 3 yrs after her kidney graft ( transplant in 2014) failed . Hoping you can bring out a video on kidney patients on Haemodialysis & Peritoneal dialysis . Thanks in advance 🙏🌸
Just finished 5 day of fasting. Lost 8 pounds & I got the keto rash. Anyway I’ll work on that, but still very happy. Thank you Dr Berg. Half way of my ideal weight, from 220 3 months ago now 178. Still 48 pounds to go
I had the keto rash too. What totally took it away was dandelion root tea. I then also added a dandelion and milk thistle supplement. Never has been a problem since. I must admit that I first started taking bile salts in the hopes that they would clear the rash,, but didn’t see an improvement until I started drinking dandelion tea.
Hmmmm...I've experienced. I eat broc and cauli wkly. I have periods where I'll down plates full w second helpings. lol. Never knocks me out of anything good. Good stuff! Be healthy and safe y'all.
I am also hoping eating the right kinds of vegetables will help aging skin. I am 68 and have never had any facial work done or treatments like botox or prescription retin a. I do take vitamins.
Hi Dr. Berg. When you say to try this and see what the results are, what results should we be looking for? Does it make you feel better, make your skin look better, reduce hunger? Thanks!
Cher: results are pretty fantastic and proportional to the length of the fast. Your digestive systems stabilizes, quiets and feels normal (although there will be intermittent hunger pangs), your skin will feel amazingly soft and supple - provided you’ve hydrated well during the fast and your mind will be clear. Be sure to get enough electrolytes during your fast and you’ll feel, see the results peak around 6 - 18 hours following the fast ( my experience). Breaking the fast, and what you eat afterwards is important as well; I’m sure you can find plenty of suggestions on what to eat afterwards, but make it light.
I can tell you from experience. Before I started IF my sugar blood level was high and I couldn't workout without drinking some refined sugar like dextrose or else I would feel dizzy. Also along the day I would feel these insuline spikes and carbs cravings that would ruin my concentration. Then I started doing IF, eating 3 meals in an 8 hour interval (12, 16 and 20:00) and only drinking water in between, and no snacking at all. After 1 week my cravings were gone, my focus improved, I was not able to workout everyday while fasting before having my first meal and I was still gaining muscle, even while eating less (I was eating 5 big meals before, because I'm very skinny and have a fast metabolism, so I was afraid of losing weight by doing IF). So for me, IF really made autophagy work and there had been so many benefits that I will keep doing forever
@@ggman8216 Great to hear your story. Most people on keto want to lose weight and it is hard to get info about the skinny concerned about losing weight, but having a sugar problem 😀
In Jains ( a religion ) we have people who fast for 10 days straight (first 3 days Not Even water and then next 7 days water only that too a little-just a little hot : from the borewell (as nutrients more)and by sitting at One place only once a day Then they would break the fast with Saunth - Dry ginger powder mixed with hot ghee and powdered sugar , plus some Ukaali - A concoction of many herbs and condiments , then they would start taking Moong ki dal ka paani : Moong dal boiled in water -as it is very light to digest ....when you fast too long ...your metabolism slows down and digestion is slow ...hence take lighter things ....I don't know if any of this will help you in any way but just felt like sharing
I love cauliflower this is a life saver BC I never can take meds or vitamins on a empty stomach so this interests with my health or fast or both. So to know I can eat some of this veggie to take meds or help keep a fast going is great news. All iv read is no calories at all for fasting especially for autophagy
I love your channel. You always have the best videos and you get straight to the point. Other channels drone on, but get to the point at the end. Your information has helped me a lot.
Any consumption of calories actually does indeed break your fast. Once you consume calories your digestive system has to kick in and autophagy is stopped regardless if the calories is from a vegetable or any other food. Otherwise, great video on autophagy.
yep my instincts were telling me to keep doing what I was doing by not taking in calories no matter how tempting this advice sounded so I just kept scrolling through hoping I'd eventually find a comment like yours. Thanks
When I eat Cabbage, for example, I don't see my insulin levels going up. It's a great thing because I eat one meal a day most of the time and sometimes I feel like I need to eat something without losing the benefits of OMAD. So yeah, Cabbage is great for not getting out of fasting, including autophagy.
yes I love chomping on raw cabbage, red or green. people look at me funny. I used it to help digest foods, my mom says she never gets sick in cold seasons when she eats it everyday . so yeah for cabbage.
I fasted Friday but got quite famished end of day. So, I used Dr. Berg's recommendation and had a bowl of broccoli, cauliflower, butter and seasonings. It hit the spot. The next day, I still hit my target weight loss of 1 pound since the last weigh in a few days earlier. So, didn't seem to sabotage me. Will try some collard greens on my next fast day. Thank for sharing such useful info with us! 👍
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'm 57 and just began my keto journey into week 3. I'm already feeling so much better and see this as a lifestyle change. I've also incorporated IF for 16-19 hours daily. How much greens to do suggest incorporating to achieve more benefits of autophagy?
To be honest with you, the only thing that keeps me from dry fasting is not brushing my teeth and not being able to wash my hands after using the bathroom. Yes, I know hand sanitizer could be used but still feels weird to me.
Hey Dr Berg massive fan I've tried most of this and it works. I fast fully for two days a week but you have to have the spiritual side of fasting so that the mind can follow otherwise there is no symbiosis.
Ok now I’ve watched a few of your videos. I used to eat huge salads and started eating them again. Back in my hippy days I even did a raw food diet for awhile. You have inspired me. Thank you. Remember the book survival into the 21st century or become younger by Norman walker. Anyway thanks again.
You know, it's funny (in an amazing way), but when my Dad had cancer, the treatment made him so nauseous and uninterested in food that he just couldn't keep anything down/didn't bother eating. We were told to make sure he drank water all day, sipping from a water bottle which should always be next to him. The cancer nurse said people usually die accidentally due to dehydration caused by the treatment. Anyway, he didn't eat normally for a long time. Months really. He (6'2") went from a chubby 230 to a lean mean 160. He got rid of his cancer, his diverticulitis, hives, hair loss, etc. It was amazing. He looked 30 years younger. He lived for another 26 years. He died in 2015 at age 93.Must have been the autophogy. Thanks Dr. Berg.

All cancer and other disease patients would benefit tremendously from listening to this lovely doctor 🤸🏻♀️
Yes I have read that this is the best thing you can do on chemo or radiotherapy. The autophagy is a big factor with decreased side effects plus no doubt other unknown ones at this stage
They would’ve given you Big pharma sponsored Ensure drinks if you would’ve let them. Toxic!!! Glad you survived without their help
Down 143 lbs over the last 9 months...starting a 3 day water fast today no more food till Sunday!!😁😁
Congrats. When I did a 3 day water fast I watched UA-cam for recipes. Lol... Now I do a 36 hour dry fast at the beginning of each month.
@@jamedraa8472 I do too. I watch cooking shows then I end up saying "yuk, that doesn't look good at all!" It must be a fasting thing! 😁
@@deborahasher176 LOL! I'm watching them making a to do list.
Good on you for dropping that's much...
I am too!
This information is so good. My wife is so hooked on the benefits of cruciferous veggies, that she now runs a thriving Microgreens business. She's so much healthier than ever and has been off all meds for about a year now.
Glad to be of help then! Be well!
Thanks for everything Dr. Berg!
I just had a snack outside my fasting window and this video popped up.
I feel caught!
God works in mysterious ways...
Outside fasting window, or outside eating window?
No stress , Knowledge is the key and slowly progressing ,learn , live and experiment, never beat yourself up , Cheers !
Humans are not infallible... keep on keeping on !

I'm going into day 5 of a water fast. Feel amazing. Down about 7 lbs. I feel so good that I am thinking of extending it a few days beyond 5 which would definitely be the max for me. I've only ever done 5 days and they were always a bit of a struggle the first 2 days but for some reason this one has been easy. Watching all these videos for motivation. Thank you Dr. Berg, your info is invaluable.
You are amazing!
I’m so thankful for your videos! What inspired me a lot was a story of an overweight girl that came to your office and didn’t loose any weight for a month but was not upset because she was feeling great. After that she started to loosing the weight. This is how I’m trying to look at your guidance. I’m not loosing the weight yet but I can feel I’m healing. I have more energy and slept through the night for the first time in years! It took me more then a month to actually achieve IF. But since I did things are changing even tho I’m going through very difficult time of my live with moving, starting a new job and some personal problems. I don’t think I could handle so much physical and emotional strain if it was not for you.
Thank you again 🙏
Dr Berg says you have to get healthy to lose weight. You are getting healthy 😊
Much success in your journey 🙏
@@JannyMaha you can lose weight and not be healthy,,,

I have been doing a 17 hour a day fast 7days a week for 9 months. Besides going from 225 to 185... I am amazed how much better I feel in every possible way. I am 67 and it has done wonders....The fountain of youth is two things...1) intermittent fasting AND 2) daily exercise of one hour per day.
Do 18 hours
Watch what an hour more daily do for you.
Is your skin tighter?? About how many calories per day? 😊
Before watching Dr. Bergs videos I did never heard of autophagy and now here I am doing my first prolonged fast. Having 52 hours of 72 done. Will repeat it for sure! Thanks

Did he mean that ai can eat broccoli and it doesn’t break my fast?
Because my English is not that much
Make sure to crack a window
@@johnalsaka3201 broccoli, cabbage, kale, Brussels sprouts, etc. Cruciferous vegetables. Hopefully you can get a translation for that word!

Broccoli sprouts

For the first time in 15 years I feel healthy and I have an optimal blood pressure. Thanks to following Berg since January 2021. I've also lost 30 kilos. Cravings are gone too.
How often do you fast? Every day? Two days a week?
I am on my Monday fast(it's sunnah to do dry fasting from sunrise to sunset on Monday & Thursday every week).
Fasting is really calming and relaxing.🥰
The short answer: cruciferous vegetables.
I think that the best thing we did was to get him out of the hospital and keep him at home with us bringing him in only for necessary appts. Hospital food, bags of sugar draining into your arm is the death knell. The starving did it. The body did just what Dr. Berg says: It cleaned up the cancer. It had nothing to get in the way. Also the familiarity of home, where he could sleep as long as possible, have all of us with him. He was such a lovely, sociable Dad. He loved visitors.
💕
Which leads us to the next question: what the hell does that mean?
It means end your fast, break it with cruciferous veggies. It will further enchane your prior fasting state. Duhh...
@@suni.L Raw cruciferous vegetables? Like eating broccoli or brussel sprouts raw? Not even steamed?
This man is an very extraordinary man the world needs more like him

Can you please tell me. If autography fasting with no food or drinks at all, and how long do you do it? I am asking you because I saw you are a Michigan Grandma and I used to live in MI so I felt comfortable asking you. 🙂
Wats your window tines
Kristen C Do you take your probiotic during your fasting window? I’ve wondered if it was ok.
Do you also exercise? Keto?
Wow
OK, I want to say this. It's certainly working for me. I started snacking on raw cruciferous when fasting if I felt I wanted to eat something. First of all, it keeps me busy because it's a lot of crunching! Secondly there is something very healing about it - I can't quite pinpoint it, but my body seems to do a lot better since I have started this. And honestly after not too long I stop eating anyway - it's really minimal. I wish I'd found out about it a lot sooner! BTW, my favorite is organic red cabbage. Pretty awesome, really.
you have to ferment those things
Raw red cabbage?
@@justlookattheflowers4239 No, it needs to be raw to continue autophagy as clearly explained by Dr Berg in this video. 01:51
Thank you for your comment. I, too, want to do this kind of fasting, but had no idea what would be safe for snacking on when I need more than just water.
@@justlookattheflowers4239 I also eat organic sauerkraut, but my body digests raw cabbage well. I have to chew it thoroughly, though.
Down 25 kg . All merits go to Dr Berg for the lessons and inspiration
Idk if autophagy or just IF is doing it but since I started IF my skin has gotten a lot smoother... Whatever it is, it's awesome!

Well! Thank you very much. I just got to the 48 hour mark in my fast and I was going to eat a full regular keto meal but now I'm going to eat some kale and broccoli sprouts and push through to 72 hours.
Lost 82lbs on keto. Now I'll do fasting on top of that.

I started again a prolong fasting to stay safe. Already 6 days today. Tomorrow I will start eating very small quantity of cruciferous during 10 days more. Thanks
I am now in my another fasting stage and I can only recomend it for all... Today is 5 day without food and I found that more I do it easier it become. My best is 17 days without food but my experience is best result is from 7-10 days fasting...
Wow that's amazing. I'm not sure I can do that many days without food. I do fast 15-17hrs a day. I'm still now to the keto world. So when you fast for these long periods of time do you just drink water? Anything else? Thank you.
Did you eat any vegetables in between
Nothing just water but other time I did it with hymalayan salt 2x a day half coffespoon this is much easier... And dont be affraid of hunger... It will gone in 3 days...
That sounds excessive I'm into keto 8 weeks I do 20 hours a day but I'm evolving all the time because 20 hours is effortless but we still have to find the right balance because too much fasting must have a negative side
@@scottohare8355 nah 😁. Funny thing is I didn't try fasting after bad sleep but after long study ... Did you hear Russians had long secret very well funded program where they tested over 90thousand people and in 80' they started to apply this in to country national hospital guidance but before fully adapted communism broken down in 1988 and long program was forgotten beacouse no money for pharma sharks....
In my language is there document movie on UA-cam ... Type ... LIECBA POSTOM and switch on subtitles so maybe that help to understand power of excessive fasting ....
The only food that will not break your fast: the word of God

My 4th day on keto 1 meal a day and i have lost 3kilos but my strength and energi has allready gone up. My sleep has improved. I train hard strength traning and my kilos has gone up 5kg with the same rep range. SUGAR SUCKS. Due to my hard traning i have 50grams of protien from pork and beef on top of the egg protien a day, this has not hindered weight loss, i drink 2 liters of water 1 coffe and 3 cops of different tee a day. This is propaly the best thing i have done for myself in a long time. Thank you doc Berg ❤️👍.

Thanks for your work. I am 67 and have been vegetarian/vegan since the late 70's. Haven't always made the best choices, however, I learned the body heals. I currently am not on any medications and treat my Self naturally with herbs, salves and teas. I religiously fast 24 times a year.
How did I miss this video?? Good to know I can have my morning smoothies early and not adversely affect my fast and autophagy.
No
U can eat the raw cruciferous you would put in ur smoothie and that’s it - and make sure u chew it, don’t blend with water. Eat it.
Thanks again Mister Doctor Berg. Your videos made me realize the negatives of carbs, and positives of fasting. Finally got abs, no more liver inflammation, and feeling 200%!
This should have been labeled which food will not prevent autophagy. Love everything you do berg!
This makes me so happy! I have come to love my kale smoothie each morning (with a scoop of Dr Berg's Wheatgrass Powder and Electrolyte Powder)! I am still working up to doing prolonged fasting. Am currently doing 20:4 IF. But thrilled to know I can keep the kale smoothie during fasting to heal more! Dr Berg thank you for all these updates on fasting and autophagy! You're the BEST!😄💥👏❤

Raw kale, that’s it

Hello everyone, yes he did say 'raw'. But chill, arugula makes also part of cruciferous vegetables. You can make a salad dressing with ACV, salt and mct-oil to help you in your fasting and inprove autophagy. Blessings :-)

I am currently getting radiation treatments for breast cancer and only have had 6 treatments with only 10 more to go. I didn’t have to do chemo. I’ve been thinking that I’d like to eat just cruciferous veggies and fast and now seeing this video I’m going to try it. I’ll also try some knotweed extract for resveratrol and I already sprout broccoli seeds for sulforaphane. I started eating those sprouts several years ago. I’ve been eating keto & fasting btw 16-24 hours per day since the spring of 2019. I’ve not gone beyond 54 hours fasting. So wish me luck in repairing and cleaning up my damaged cells.
He is great... I grew up on a farm... no ride to the store....stayed fasting because we didn’t have accessi to junk... and went out back in the garden and only could eat fruit or vegetables.... I was skinny as a pencil
And I stayed slim for years because my mother RARELY had soft drinks or candy bars...we had a small bowl of ice cream after supper each evening and that was it!
Wow! This is a fantastic first class lecture! You make everything so easy to understand. Marvellous top drawer stuff! Thanks Dr Berg …your the best!
Very glad to be of help.
Starting a 5 Day Fast with only water and cruciferous vegetables. I’m 6’1 and 240 lbs right now. Quarantine hit me hard lol. My birthday is June 22nd and I’m trying to look leaner in the next 10 days. I’ll be back to share how this goes..
After your 5 day, eat just once a day, I do 22 & 2. I'm your size, was 245 now 180. Also can pretty much eat what I want for my one meal. Good luck to you
@@davids9793 Thanks bro. Just got down to 234. How long did it take you?
@@starfoxboy670 Nice. I wasn't in any kind of hurry but doing the 22 hours of fasting and 2 of dinner time, the 65 pounds came off within 7-8 months. No working out or exercise so it could have been a much quicker deal if I had.
Make sure your strict on the eating window, when it's closed don't open it again till the next day.
@@davids9793 I do intermittent fasting but usually not 22 hour windows, only sometimes. Do you mind if I ask you what type of foods do you eat during your two hours of dinner time? I'm curious to know how other people drop/maintain their weight, so I can improve.
@@georgegumdropbuttons269 I'm not on any specific type of diet. I rarely eat out or do fast food. I pretty much eat what I want, even have some ice cream every other day for dessert. Everybody has a different metabolism and results will surely vary but I think for anyone who can do the closed window portion of the process without issues (eating) you will lose your weight.
Thanks for the information Dr. Berg. I'm from India. I found your videos very helpful during this lockdown period. I'm into my IF and eventually lost 20 lb in 4 months. Can you please make a video on Indian vegetables and their nutritional values? We hardly find such cruciferous vegetables except cabbage in the remote areas of India. That would be greatly helpful for Indians. Thanks a lot.
How about cauliflower? You can also sprout seeds in your kitchen such as broccoli and eat the sprouts.
Thank you for this video as it confirms what I have been doing off and on now for over 20 years. It is actually how I healed cancer (and other health issues), lost weight (which really was an added bonus to be faire as my intent with fasting was and always has been to get vibrant health and well being so the weight loss was definitely a bonus!) and how I detox during a fast. I also add in some other things as well for detoxing, so thank you for this, most appreciated!
Great summary! Can you provide the research that indicates cruciferous vegetables do not break a fast?
Today I came on time 🙏🙏I love you doctor I do make sure I watch one of your videos everyday Live long my favorite doctor 😍😍

The way Dr. Berg looks at his wife 😍😍😍
I remember about 10-15 years ago when my mom was doing fasting for cleansing and weightloss reading centuries old indian manuscripts. Doctors are like that's 'Not good, doesn't help'. What do they say now
not centuries old. Thousands of years old
@Adrian Wilson No, most doctors like myself want their patients to eat healthy and exercise to get OFF of medications for high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, etc. The goal of Medicine is NOT to just add medications, but when the patients are engorging their fast and junk foods and not exercising, etc then medications can help.

They likely won't from an autophagy standpoint but definitely will form the digestive system standpoint. Part of the benefits of a fast is giving a rest to the gut, liver, pancreas and kidney so they can either rest or work on removing accumulated waste. Also starving bad gut bacteria (the good ones can go without food for longer).
Thank you, forgot that in excitement I could eat. Digestion problems was how I got into OMAD LCHF in the first place. Oh dear, have to save my coli for dinner.

Just finished 5 day of fasting. Lost 8 pounds & I got the keto rash. Anyway I’ll work on that, but still very happy. Thank you Dr Berg. Half way of my ideal weight, from 220 3 months ago now 178. Still 48 pounds to go
I had the keto rash too. What totally took it away was dandelion root tea. I then also added a dandelion and milk thistle supplement. Never has been a problem since. I must admit that I first started taking bile salts in the hopes that they would clear the rash,, but didn’t see an improvement until I started drinking dandelion tea.
In short: Eat your broccoli.

I am also hoping eating the right kinds of vegetables will help aging skin. I am 68 and have never had any facial work done or treatments like botox or prescription retin a. I do take vitamins.
Hi Dr. Berg. When you say to try this and see what the results are, what results should we be looking for? Does it make you feel better, make your skin look better, reduce hunger? Thanks!
Cher: results are pretty fantastic and proportional to the length of the fast. Your digestive systems stabilizes, quiets and feels normal (although there will be intermittent hunger pangs), your skin will feel amazingly soft and supple - provided you’ve hydrated well during the fast and your mind will be clear. Be sure to get enough electrolytes during your fast and you’ll feel, see the results peak around 6 - 18 hours following the fast ( my experience). Breaking the fast, and what you eat afterwards is important as well; I’m sure you can find plenty of suggestions on what to eat afterwards, but make it light.
I can tell you from experience. Before I started IF my sugar blood level was high and I couldn't workout without drinking some refined sugar like dextrose or else I would feel dizzy. Also along the day I would feel these insuline spikes and carbs cravings that would ruin my concentration. Then I started doing IF, eating 3 meals in an 8 hour interval (12, 16 and 20:00) and only drinking water in between, and no snacking at all. After 1 week my cravings were gone, my focus improved, I was not able to workout everyday while fasting before having my first meal and I was still gaining muscle, even while eating less (I was eating 5 big meals before, because I'm very skinny and have a fast metabolism, so I was afraid of losing weight by doing IF). So for me, IF really made autophagy work and there had been so many benefits that I will keep doing forever
What ś the vedeo talk about
@@ggman8216 Great to hear your story. Most people on keto want to lose weight and it is hard to get info about the skinny concerned about losing weight, but having a sugar problem 😀
In Jains ( a religion ) we have people who fast for 10 days straight (first 3 days Not Even water and then next 7 days water only that too a little-just a little hot : from the borewell (as nutrients more)and by sitting at One place only once a day
Then they would break the fast with Saunth - Dry ginger powder mixed with hot ghee and powdered sugar , plus some Ukaali - A concoction of many herbs and condiments , then they would start taking Moong ki dal ka paani : Moong dal boiled in water -as it is very light to digest ....when you fast too long ...your metabolism slows down and digestion is slow ...hence take lighter things
....I don't know if any of this will help you in any way but just felt like sharing
I love cauliflower this is a life saver BC I never can take meds or vitamins on a empty stomach so this interests with my health or fast or both. So to know I can eat some of this veggie to take meds or help keep a fast going is great news. All iv read is no calories at all for fasting especially for autophagy
I love your channel. You always have the best videos and you get straight to the point. Other channels drone on, but get to the point at the end. Your information has helped me a lot.
Very glad to be of help.
Any consumption of calories actually does indeed break your fast. Once you consume calories your digestive system has to kick in and autophagy is stopped regardless if the calories is from a vegetable or any other food. Otherwise, great video on autophagy.
yep my instincts were telling me to keep doing what I was doing by not taking in calories no matter how tempting this advice sounded so I just kept scrolling through hoping I'd eventually find a comment like yours. Thanks
@DrEricBergDC
When I eat Cabbage, for example, I don't see my insulin levels going up. It's a great thing because I eat one meal a day most of the time and sometimes I feel like I need to eat something without losing the benefits of OMAD. So yeah, Cabbage is great for not getting out of fasting, including autophagy.
Thanks. This sounds like a good option. Maybe I’ll go buy some cabbage and cook it.
@@TheGoldenGoddessNRG, eat it raw. It's better.
yes I love chomping on raw cabbage, red or green. people look at me funny. I used it to help digest foods, my mom says she never gets sick in cold seasons when she eats it everyday . so yeah for cabbage.
Dr. Eric, You Sir Are An Absolute Treasure. Thank You For Providing Such Brilliant Content.
Am gonna start doing my IF again tomorrow but do a longer fast this time. I wanna do longer than 16 hrs
I fasted Friday but got quite famished end of day. So, I used Dr. Berg's recommendation and had a bowl of broccoli, cauliflower, butter and seasonings. It hit the spot. The next day, I still hit my target weight loss of 1 pound since the last weigh in a few days earlier. So, didn't seem to sabotage me. Will try some collard greens on my next fast day. Thank for sharing such useful info with us! 👍
Butter? Did Dr berg mention that you can also eat butter?
@@jccgold nope
@@shanda5109 he did, in another video
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I'm 57 and just began my keto journey into week 3. I'm already feeling so much better and see this as a lifestyle change. I've also incorporated IF for 16-19 hours daily. How much greens to do suggest incorporating to achieve more benefits of autophagy?
dry fasting works better for autophagy.. but cruciferous veggies are pretty awesome, so why not! Dr Berg is one of the good guys 👍
To be honest with you, the only thing that keeps me from dry fasting is not brushing my teeth and not being able to wash my hands after using the bathroom. Yes, I know hand sanitizer could be used but still feels weird to me.
Hey Dr Berg massive fan I've tried most of this and it works. I fast fully for two days a week but you have to have the spiritual side of fasting so that the mind can follow otherwise there is no symbiosis.
Love this I have broccoli brussel sprouts and cauliflower plus cabbage
Ok now I’ve watched a few of your videos. I used to eat huge salads and started eating them again. Back in my hippy days I even did a raw food diet for awhile.
You have inspired me. Thank you. Remember the book survival into the 21st century or become younger by Norman walker. Anyway thanks again.
