5:18 'bonebroth will not pull you out of autophagy" this is the best Christmas message you could have ever given me. My loose skin in the pelvic area is my only concern and I am using Redifining Strength and Cali movement as my inspirational teachers for that. Since end of Jan 2021 I am down 6 belt notches.
Thank you for confirming this! My fasting snack has always been my morning keto coffee which runs about 150 cal. It really helps to extend my fasting period easily to 18 and 20 hours without being on edge. My next choice would be an egg. I can eat two or three eggs in the morning and go for hours or even the rest of the day without cravings.
Thanks Mindy. Great vid. Yes! From my experience, a small snack will not kick you out of a fast or ketosis. And it will not raise your BS. I wear a CGM and the proof is right there in real time. All the "clean" fasting dogma out there is pure bunk. You don't need to restrict to black coffee, plain tea and water. I have half-n-half cream in my coffee every morning and there is zero impact on my BS. Same with a hb egg, 1/2 avocado, 1T nut butter, etc. In fact, I find ANY reasonably healthy small snack is fine (obviously not a sugar cookie or skittles).... as long as it's just a bite or two. I had 2 pieces of sushi the other day and there was zero impact on my BS. Not even a blip.
Interesting, because my sugars did kick (long term diabetic, so getting rid of a lot of sugar). A few nuts seem to work, and meds should not be on empty stomach.
Love this comment! I resonate with it so much. I can fast for 7+ days with the integration of fasting snacks. I combine fasting and intuitive eating so connect to my body to figure out what it needs as a small snack to maintain my fasted state. Hard boiled eggs as suggested in the video are usually my go to.
Thank You Dr. Mindy! Your fasting snacks have helped me increase my fasting window to 36 hours! I used to fast only 18-20 hours but now I’m a real champion! All thanks to you! ❤❤❤❤❤
I did keto several years ago lost weight, covid hit, I'm a respiratory therapist so I was super stressed high cortisol, starting eating all the wrong crap again gained it back and inflammation came back etc. I started 2 weeks ago on your 15 day reset and wow! Starting producing ketone fast and I did use some of your fasting snack ideas for my 36hr. Worked like a charm. This is my new lifestyle forever, never going back. You have taught me diet variation and fasting variation, I didn't do that before. Love love ❤️ your teachings! I'm down like 7 pounds already.
Thank you, Dr. Mindy for all of this information. I have lost 64 lbs with Keto and IF and have maintained it for almost 5 years. I started with OMAD (23:1), and this is when I lost the majority of my weight. I do some Dry Fasting now and there, but mainly, I do 18:6 or 20:4. 😊
I'm 53 & started learning about fasting 10 months ago & been doing a Keto / Carnivore lifestyle for about 9 months with breaks. I'm down to my Jr. H.S. weight, down about 100# in over a years time. I've got about 15% BMI left to get to target.
I do 36/12 routinely, and on my fasting days, I have a cup or two of miso soup, and find it completely satisfies me. My daughter suggested I do that, because she thought 36/12 was impossibly drastic. It’s not, of course, but the miso soup is such a nice addition to my regimen!
I've used the broth to help me lengthen my fasts. My sister told me to use the bone broth when I started. I've found by accident while fasting I took your one suggestion to break with a spoon of nut butter, doesn't pull me out of ketosis or bump my blood sugar. And just because I've snatched a boiled egg before I started cooking dinner after a 20 hour fast, Ive noticed the same, when I don't want to wait for dinner to cook. Thanks for this video. So far I'm down just over 30 lbs and my blood sugars have gone from consistenly over 100 in the morning, to being 88 first thing now. THanks for all of your info!
WOW. I dont usually need a snack, but I might give it a try to go longer. I would choose Bone broth or a boiled egg. as I love both. lol thank you Dr Mindy. from the UK.
Thanks Dr. Mindy ❤️ As initially I wasn’t a fan a Of bulletproof coffee, 1-2 tsp cold butter helped me to prolong my fast 6-8 extra hours when I started going over 18 hours, or moments where I was serving lunch or dinner to my kids and not breaking my fast that night. It was a game changer.
I have just experimented this theory by eating two small avocados after a night fasting, my mmol after one hour dropped from 5.1 to 4.7 (I’m from the uk). Of course two avocados are too much during fasting but it means I can end a long fast with a relatively substantial amount of food and go to work and continue benefitting from fat burning. Thank you Dr. Mindy, so far I have managed one 61 hour fast and I was fine.
lost 13pounds in 6 weeks with fasting, low in carbs and keto 18/6. I am very happy and found your channel that taught me the more about this lifestyle.
I’m an experienced faster but when I have a hard time sticking with my fast (the culprit typically being bc I’m feeling anxious or my throat is a little sore from not eating) I sometimes cave & have a boiled egg, a pickle, or a small handful of nuts. I was feeling guilty thinking I ruined my results but it always did help me fast longer afterwards! This is amazing news, & I’m so glad my body seemed to figure it out on its own. The more I fast, the more intuitive I feel with my physicality- in hindsight, I’m now seeing how so much of my previous eating was coming from my mental state rather than what my body was actually communicating.
I tried modified fast , which is one egg, half avocado and a TBS of mayonnaise. About 400 calories total . Believe me I lost 5 lbs in a week . I try this every other month for a week ..
Dr Mindy, You’re my favorite! I love you for what you’re doing to the society!! You’re beautiful and vibrant speaking with passion because you care 👏😇♥️
Thank you for sharing all your Knowledge with us Dr Mindy! I especially like that you explain it from a woman’s perspective. I have been watching you for about a month. I have lost 9 pounds so far! Looking forward to a healthier happier lifestyle! ❤
Thanks again for another great video I've only been fasting for 4 weeks now and have lost a stubborn 5 lb that I was unable to lose for the last year and a half with what I thought was eating healthy and exercise. Your videos have given me a new insight on how to eat a cleaner healthier lifestyle. I'll be 65 in November and have been working on building muscle for the last 4 years due to aging saggy skin. I truly enjoyed your video on how to build muscle. The muscle tone has definitely helped fill out a lot of my loose skin. More shall be revealed. Today I tried my first 23-hour fast I had made it to 20 but never this long. I was experiencing a lot of brain fog while working and broke my fast with a half an avocado, some kefir and protein. I wished I had seen this video first I know that after the half of avocado I could have made it to 24 hours lol. My goal is to get up to 36 hours then a 48 hour fast. Knowing I can have these fasting snacks will help me achieve my goals. After the first of the year I plan on doing the 5-day waterfest. I feel like I have discovered a new way of living as I have never felt better. I struggled with insomnia for years I am e sleeping better I know this because I can remember my dreams lol Thank you thank you thank you!!
I have been fasting more than a year and lost almost 30 pounds.My typical fasting snacks are 'Bel Gioioso snacking cheese' ,70 cal,carb under 1g,fat 5g,protein 5g. Another snack is Arla's havarti and Gouda snack cheese, cal 80, carb 0g protein 5g, fat 7g. Sometimes I will have Andouille Casing free chicken sausage,fat 6g,, cal 110, carb 1g.
Thank-you. I use to be vegan and I started months ago to do keto if twomad but after a week I started omad naturally. But I had avocado to home and I started to want it one few houars before the 24 h, I started to belive that it was better for me to do twomad. Now I understand that I can do omad! Just eating half avocado! Or a spoon of nut butter! Have a nice life.
I used to be a clean faster , cannot do that anymore; while putting that little cream in my morning coffee, I have always persuaded myself by thinking “SOMETHING IS BETTER THAN NOTHING “. I was so happy to hear about the fasting snack.
I love hearing about this. I do Bulletproof coffee in the morning. Since I learned IF through Dave Asprey it hasn't occurred to me to think of it as "fasting snack"--it's just how I start my day. I have ME/CFS and I feel the MCT-8 is critical for restoring brain health. I don't *need* it to fast--in August I did a month of strict 20/4 without it and had no issues, but my body just feels better with that morning hit of fat 🙏🤗🥰. That said, I'm gearing up for the 3-Day water fast we're doing in the Academy 💪...
I ate 2 scrambled eggs at 25 hours of fasting to help get me to 40 hours. I was so surprised to see my blood glucose on a keto Mojo went up 21 points. I am not overweight, and I am not insulin resistant so to say I am confused is putting it lightly.
I’m so grateful!! This helped me so much today! I was just about to break my fast at about 13 and happened to see this mentioning the egg or a keto cup (my first time understanding what these are today). I immediately ordered keto cups for grocery pick up in the afternoon and boiled an egg. BEST EGG OF MY LIFE! 😆🙌🏽🥰 A few hours later I had a coconut butter keto cup and here I am now, 21 hours into fasting and just decided to go to 36 bc of this 🙏🏽😎❤️
The study does clarify that the "fasting snack" they used in the study was 200 kcal of mixed nuts (18g fat, 5g protein, 4g carbohydrate). I'm curious to see your video that describes how you can tell if the fasting snack keeps you in ketosis (ketogenesis?) or not as I can't eat nuts so want to experiment with other options. I found Kashi's Keto Go cereal, but 1 cup (150cal) is only 6g fat but 19g carbs and 12g protein which doesn't feel super high fat/low carb/low protein to me.
What about a whole foods plant based high fiber nutritionally dence blended whole juice at about 14 hours and omad or blended juice and omad 18/6. Was doing 18/6 for 3 years been tuff and harder sence I stopped working was a night time cab driver was eating after 6 pm stopped at midnight was easy not eating till 6 pm. Lot of time on my hands now not able to work right now back surgery rehab and Breathing lightheaded long haul CV 19 issues. Any suggestions big fan . I'm a whole foods plant based diet guy been trying for years found my happy place
I rarely snack when I fast, but in days when I'm struggling (usually related to my cycle) then half an avocado is my go to. I wish we could get keto cups in the UK so I could give them a go. Thabk you for another informative video ❤
Fasting is the fountain of youth...And Dr. Mindy is a angel Here to let us know Our true power......I love a fasting snack,Every chance I get I want a snack lol...But on a serious note I’ve been fasting for Five years...Peanut butter and avocado are in my top five of food I eat them every day...Peace and blessings
We are retired and dh sometimes wants to stop at del taco... Since I'm nearly always fasting I generally get a side of sour cream and or a side of guac.
THANK YOU DR MINDY!! 🙏💗 i am grateful for all you share . I LOVE bone broth, keto cups, avocado cups, and the Andreas seed oils to help me sometimes when I am fasting. This is sooo good to know because I wasn’t sure if it was breaking my fast. Sometimes I don’t need anything and drink my electrolyte water. In the last 5 weeks I have lost 15lbs with a fasting life style- i put on those 15 pounds over the summer-snacking more. I feel good and have more energy . Your videos inspire me and help me understand health at a deeper level. Many blessings to you, your family, and your team 💗 Namaste 🙏
Free companion guide please; thank you, for the fasting snack 411. Lost 40 lbs in 11/2 yrs, goal to reverse A1C numbers. Numbers did an about face.Your information so helpful! Tky, tky, tky.
Hi Audrey Agro here is a beginners video and a link to my free beginners course ua-cam.com/video/-YQRx3mYeP4/v-deo.html resetacademy.drmindypelz.com/pl/2147629918
As always, thank you for keeping us updated on the latest research. It makes it so much more valuable when you can use your knowledge and experience to bring across the science in such a simple and effective way. God's continued blessings to you and family Dr Mindy 💞
This is undoubtedly the best fasting news....by far. No more anxiety......Now we fast with a smile without frowning and feeling sorry for yourself........for 7 days.
I've been "fasting" since August of 2021. I have fasting in quotes because from the beginning of August to the end of October all I did was stop consuming alcohol and sugar beverages (to include the calorie free/sugar free sweetened "diet" drinks). I lost 5 (ish) pounds doing that. Starting November I have been alternating between OMAD and 3 day fasts. I've lost 30 pounds since November. It is the end of January when I am saying this. That being said, I've been having weird allergic reactions to pretty much EVERYTHING... Milk, detergent, moisturizers, shampoo, conditioner, hydrogenated (insert food name here), any chemical in food, in hygiene products, in clothing items (like the cape the hairdressers use), possibly in plastic bottles of water or coffee, insect bites... My face turns bright red and/or deep purple (usually around the eyes it gets darker) and swells 3 to 4x the normal size... So I can't stop fasting or my face gets huge. I've had to go to the hospital once over it... I'm really not sure what to do... Yea it's great that I'm dropping weight like crazy but... I'd rather not be going in and out of anaphylaxis like this. It's very scary. I probably need to go to a functional medicine doctor but they don't take insurance... So that's $300 just for the heavy metal testing...
I’ve been using bone broth to get me from 16 to 20 or 21 hrs. With an egg I might be able to hit 22 or 23 more often. Thx for confirming my body’s intuition!
I never thought of it as a fasting snack, but I put organic whole whipping cream (no other ingredient in it), whipped up with a touch of organic vanilla extract in my morning coffee with some MCT oil and I'm good to go up to 17-20 hrs, depending on what I'm doing that week. I don't have a glucose monitor because it creeps me out to prick my finger! so I have to rely on my Higher Self for intuitive info. I think I'm OK with that 'snack.'
I am starting fasting tomorrow and I will use this as a crutch if needed....I am relieved that there will be no guilt or disappointment ......phew....!
Bulletproof coffee will help me. I am new to the fasting lifestyle and it is changing my life! So far I lost 12 pounds and it is perfect. I changed my eating habits too and what I eat. Adios processed foods!
This is a game changer for me. Thanks for this video. I’m going to try one egg and hopefully my fast will last longer. I’ve been doing IF since 2018 and I’ve been good (lost 80+ lbs) but i plateau around year 2020. I also eat omad 4 days a week. I hope this snacking will extend my fast over 24 hours
I’ve just finished my first 16:8 fast, I have fibromyalgia and need to try a fasting route as medication isn’t helping. I’ve put on a lot of weight which I hope it will also get rid of x
I’ve been fasting for about 6 years (16-18 hours), but now with menopause, nothing seems to work, I put on10% of my weight on and I’d like to get rid of it. So, I started listening to your videos and I’d really like to do the 36 hour fast, but not sure if I can. I may be able to do 24 hours, but I’ll try my best! Thank you for all the advice, and by the way, I’m trying to get my sister to fast too!
Starting with a 24-hour fast is a good approach, especially with the changes menopause brings. Listen to your body, and remember that gradual progression is key. Encouraging your sister is great - fasting can be more motivating with support! Keep up the good work.
@@DrMindyPelz thank you for the encouragement! I actually fasted for 21 hours yesterday and it went well. Could’ve kept on going but I ended up eating. Sister doesn’t think she can do it despite me sending her a dozen of your videos, 😞 typical fears like “I don’t think I can, I don’t think I it’s healthy” etc. I’m still encouraged to aim for the 36 hour fast. I’ve been binging on your videos!!!
and the most important thing is to be consistent. its not gonna be overnight magic . 1 meal full of junk is not gonna make you fat and 1 meal full of healthy food is not gonna make you loose 1kg fat.
I'm new to your videos. They are great! Thank you for sharing them. Please send me the Companion Guide and the Fat burning Reset info. Thanks so much again! Happy Holidays!
i just started 3 days ago doing an 18 -20 hr fast (i never did get hungry during the day so it’s not hard). i eat dinner around 6 -7but don’t understand how long that window should be. one eve about 9 I was starved and ate a slice of ham with a half slice of provolone, put a slice of roasted red pepper on it & a little mustard but it was gone in 3 bites, lol so I cut up a small banana, frozen blueberries and put a little reddi whip on it and ate that for my sweet tooth ! so i guess I had about 3 - 4 hours window that I ate (but was afraid to eat any more . that and nothing else until 6 tonight but a keto cup I bought and was very good. i have a half a sub in the frig with just fresh sirloin pieces, i put some mushrooms on i cooked in bulk to have , a touch of mayo, lettuce , 1/2 piece of provolone & a big slice of roasted red pepper. i’m concerned about the bread. can I eat some bread? i miss my chips but that’s ok. i have a cup of coffee later in the morning , sometimes, but sip it all day & keep reheating , lol But I’ not sure how much and what I can eat during the eating window. i put a truvia sweetener and lime in my water during the day and take to bed for during the night. i understand no sugar but I don’t know what else I can eat or shouldn’t eat. i feel like I’m doing this off the cuff! Dr Jemnatis (my cardiologist ) is also doing seminars on you tube and when I continue this for a few weeks, I will make an appt which I am due for anyway! when u say eating window, do u mean i can eat (the right things) from 6-9 if I want? gail
Oh my gosh I was doing this to help me already and it really helped with my 72 hr fasting. I have not made it to 5 days yet but I will So excited adding LMNT to my practice 😃 All of the information you provide really helps me as well !!
Once your body is conditioned to the 72Hr, the 120Hr will not seem so daunting. I have done it twice, but honestly for some reason the 2nd one was tougher than the first. Currently 22hr in on my 3rd one. It starts to be more mental than physical, when you realize that, it becomes easier..
I've "broke fast" in the evening with a boiled egg & avocado with nutritional yeast & olive oil. I shed 4# overnight 2 separate times, regardless. But if I eat after 8, I HALT any progress I was making. I had that snack @ 48 hrs on a 96 hr fast..... or I did 2 consecutive 48 hrs...
I've been in menopause for 7 years and about 5kg overweight, which I have struggled now for 4 years to lose. Impossible! But since fasting my weight has dropped so quickly, I am utterly amazed. Menopause does not have to be a 'death' sentence for weight loss. It is really true that less snacking is making all the difference. No I can have a feast day once a week and get back to fasting for the rest of the week. I play between 14 and 17-hour fasts.
@@lightoolineo1707 It helps to vary your fasts, that’s why Dr.Mindy does several different videos on the different kinds of fasts you can do. You can do intermittent fasting and work your way into a longer fast, just make sure you plan ahead and watch her other videos on fasting. It will also help you to join fast training week if you can. The feast is just as important as the fast, and you should very gently ease out of a fast with the right food for your chosen type of fast and you should vary your fasts. It’s all covered in the other fasting videos, Autophagy Ketosis, etc.
@@lightoolineo1707 watch Dr. Mindy’s videos on varying your fasts. It helps not to always do the same amount every time. Fasting for beginners is also an important video to watch.
5:18 'bonebroth will not pull you out of autophagy" this is the best Christmas message you could have ever given me.

I made a great homemade keto cup with cacao chips, coconut butter and coconut oil! Yay!!

Truly appreciate your videos! Also, and totally off topic, that raspberry is definitely your color! Looks fantastic on you!
This was the most challenging one for me, however LMNT got me through while baking for the holidays! Thank you Dr Mindy and LMNT!
Interesting..
I use take egg boiled with pepper salt during fasting ..it is good in bringing the expected results as expected during fasting 👍
I’m so grateful!! This helped me so much today! I was just about to break my fast at about 13 and happened to see this mentioning the egg or a keto cup (my first time understanding what these are today).
I immediately ordered keto cups for grocery pick up in the afternoon and boiled an egg. BEST EGG OF MY LIFE! 😆🙌🏽🥰 A few hours later I had a coconut butter keto cup and here I am now, 21 hours into fasting and just decided to go to 36 bc of this 🙏🏽😎❤️
🙏
OMG! Thank you for that!
A bit of nut butter made all the difference!
Fat burning reset. LOVE your UA-cam video. Thanks so much for making them available!
Not for me. Either I fast or I don’t. I need clear boundaries. But as always, very informative!
Me too... great info tho!
Same!!!
Thank you Dr Mindy, would love to have the Companion Guide please
Over 20 pounds down thanks to all your helpful information!! Love you Dr. Mindy!!!
The study does clarify that the "fasting snack" they used in the study was 200 kcal of mixed nuts (18g fat, 5g protein, 4g carbohydrate). I'm curious to see your video that describes how you can tell if the fasting snack keeps you in ketosis (ketogenesis?) or not as I can't eat nuts so want to experiment with other options. I found Kashi's Keto Go cereal, but 1 cup (150cal) is only 6g fat but 19g carbs and 12g protein which doesn't feel super high fat/low carb/low protein to me.
I am as happy as Mindy with this news
Thank you very much
I also use one lemon in my bio steel drink also one tomato with salt doesn’t raise blood sugar
Fasting snack???🤯 GENIUS!!!!!🙏🏽❤️
What about a whole foods plant based high fiber nutritionally dence blended whole juice at about 14 hours and omad or blended juice and omad 18/6. Was doing 18/6 for 3 years been tuff and harder sence I stopped working was a night time cab driver was eating after 6 pm stopped at midnight was easy not eating till 6 pm. Lot of time on my hands now not able to work right now back surgery rehab and Breathing lightheaded long haul CV 19 issues. Any suggestions big fan . I'm a whole foods plant based diet guy been trying for years found my happy place
I "sneck" black olivs, working for me 🥰
I rarely snack when I fast, but in days when I'm struggling (usually related to my cycle) then half an avocado is my go to. I wish we could get keto cups in the UK so I could give them a go. Thabk you for another informative video ❤
❤️
Fasting is the fountain of youth...And Dr. Mindy is a angel Here to let us know Our true power......I love a fasting snack,Every chance I get I want a snack lol...But on a serious note I’ve been fasting for Five years...Peanut butter and avocado are in my top five of food I eat them every day...Peace and blessings
We are retired and dh sometimes wants to stop at del taco... Since I'm nearly always fasting I generally get a side of sour cream and or a side of guac.
IF I need a snack, my go to is a spoon of butter and a bit of pink salt.
This was my first reboot and it was hard! Not the fasting part but the only 10 carbs a day. That being said I’ve lost 2 pounds! 😀
THANK YOU DR MINDY!! 🙏💗 i am grateful for all you share . I LOVE bone broth, keto cups, avocado cups, and the Andreas seed oils to help me sometimes when I am fasting. This is sooo good to know because I wasn’t sure if it was breaking my fast. Sometimes I don’t need anything and drink my electrolyte water. In the last 5 weeks I have lost 15lbs with a fasting life style- i put on those 15 pounds over the summer-snacking more. I feel good and have more energy . Your videos inspire me and help me understand health at a deeper level. Many blessings to you, your family, and your team 💗 Namaste 🙏
What is a keto cup?
Great news! Plan on giving this a try. Appreciate your passion Dr Mindy🌹♥️

I use Keto cups and that helps me a lot to prolong my fasting and I have lost 32 pounds in 3 1/2 months . I am feeling so good . Thank you Dr Mindy ❤
That's awesome! Congratulations! 🙌🤗

Awesome! 🙌
Companion guide - the Mint LMNT has been a dream this week - ❤️❤️❤️
@@DrMindyPelz thank you and LMNT ❤️
Yes yes yes! I have one boiled egg or a small slice of cheese before my HIIT and cardio workout (1 hour) when I do 16-20 hour fasts.
This is undoubtedly the best fasting news....by far. No more anxiety......Now we fast with a smile without frowning and feeling sorry for yourself........for 7 days.
Thanks so much 🙏
You are the best DR MINDY 👌
I've been "fasting" since August of 2021. I have fasting in quotes because from the beginning of August to the end of October all I did was stop consuming alcohol and sugar beverages (to include the calorie free/sugar free sweetened "diet" drinks). I lost 5 (ish) pounds doing that.
Starting November I have been alternating between OMAD and 3 day fasts. I've lost 30 pounds since November. It is the end of January when I am saying this.
That being said, I've been having weird allergic reactions to pretty much EVERYTHING... Milk, detergent, moisturizers, shampoo, conditioner, hydrogenated (insert food name here), any chemical in food, in hygiene products, in clothing items (like the cape the hairdressers use), possibly in plastic bottles of water or coffee, insect bites... My face turns bright red and/or deep purple (usually around the eyes it gets darker) and swells 3 to 4x the normal size...
So I can't stop fasting or my face gets huge. I've had to go to the hospital once over it... I'm really not sure what to do... Yea it's great that I'm dropping weight like crazy but... I'd rather not be going in and out of anaphylaxis like this. It's very scary. I probably need to go to a functional medicine doctor but they don't take insurance... So that's $300 just for the heavy metal testing...
I’ve been using bone broth to get me from 16 to 20 or 21 hrs. With an egg I might be able to hit 22 or 23 more often. Thx for confirming my body’s intuition!
What about olives? No carbs, no protein....all fat.
Can Peanut Butter be considered a nut butter, no sugar, just peanuts, no added oils???
I like coffee with bulletproof creamer for my fasting snack
I would like the companion guide. Thank you!

I really try not to snack, it's not whether it breaks a fast, for me it's more about the habit of eating at meals whether it be 1, 2 or 3 meals. 🤓
I never thought of it as a fasting snack, but I put organic whole whipping cream (no other ingredient in it), whipped up with a touch of organic vanilla extract in my morning coffee with some MCT oil and I'm good to go up to 17-20 hrs, depending on what I'm doing that week. I don't have a glucose monitor because it creeps me out to prick my finger! so I have to rely on my Higher Self for intuitive info. I think I'm OK with that 'snack.'
Hazelnut Ketocups are my favorite fasting snack BUT they are so good I cant just eat one so bone broth is my go to fasting snack. Thanks Mindy!
I am starting fasting tomorrow and I will use this as a crutch if needed....I am relieved that there will be no guilt or disappointment ......phew....!
what about coconut butter
Bulletproof coffee will help me. I am new to the fasting lifestyle and it is changing my life! So far I lost 12 pounds and it is perfect. I changed my eating habits too and what I eat. Adios processed foods!
This is a game changer for me. Thanks for this video. I’m going to try one egg and hopefully my fast will last longer. I’ve been doing IF since 2018 and I’ve been good (lost 80+ lbs) but i plateau around year 2020. I also eat omad 4 days a week. I hope this snacking will extend my fast over 24 hours
That’s great news dr Mindy!! I definitely need a fasting snack at the 22 hr point
I take collagen while I fast. It really helps with my appetite and doesn’t raise my blood sugar
I’ve just finished my first 16:8 fast, I have fibromyalgia and need to try a fasting route as medication isn’t helping. I’ve put on a lot of weight which I hope it will also get rid of x
Don't call it fasting if you snack. What's the definition of fasting?

I’ve been fasting for about 6 years (16-18 hours), but now with menopause, nothing seems to work, I put on10% of my weight on and I’d like to get rid of it. So, I started listening to your videos and I’d really like to do the 36 hour fast, but not sure if I can. I may be able to do 24 hours, but I’ll try my best! Thank you for all the advice, and by the way, I’m trying to get my sister to fast too!
Starting with a 24-hour fast is a good approach, especially with the changes menopause brings. Listen to your body, and remember that gradual progression is key. Encouraging your sister is great - fasting can be more motivating with support! Keep up the good work.
@@DrMindyPelz thank you for the encouragement! I actually fasted for 21 hours yesterday and it went well. Could’ve kept on going but I ended up eating. Sister doesn’t think she can do it despite me sending her a dozen of your videos, 😞 typical fears like “I don’t think I can, I don’t think I it’s healthy” etc. I’m still encouraged to aim for the 36 hour fast. I’ve been binging on your videos!!!
and the most important thing is to be consistent. its not gonna be overnight magic .
1 meal full of junk is not gonna make you fat and 1 meal full of healthy food is not gonna make you loose 1kg fat.
Please send me the Companion Guide. Thank you!!!
What about a cheese stick? 1 carb, 6 protein and 6 fat?
I often drink a cup of coffee with 1 tbsp of heavy cream and sometimes a little butter& it seems to bring my bs down & I can fast longer
I'm new to your videos. They are great! Thank you for sharing them. Please send me the Companion Guide and the Fat burning Reset info. Thanks so much again! Happy Holidays!
i just started 3 days ago doing an 18 -20 hr fast (i never did get hungry during the day so it’s not hard). i eat dinner around 6 -7but don’t understand how long that window should be. one eve about 9 I was starved and ate a slice of ham with a half slice of provolone, put a slice of roasted red pepper on it & a little mustard but it was gone in 3 bites, lol so I cut up a small banana, frozen blueberries and put a little reddi whip on it and ate that for my sweet tooth ! so i guess I had about 3 - 4 hours window that I ate (but was afraid to eat any more . that and nothing else until 6 tonight but a keto cup I bought and was very good. i have a half a sub in the frig with just fresh sirloin pieces, i put some mushrooms on i cooked in bulk to have , a touch of mayo, lettuce , 1/2 piece of provolone & a big slice of roasted red pepper. i’m concerned about the bread. can I eat some bread? i miss my chips but that’s ok. i have a cup of coffee later in the morning , sometimes, but sip it all day & keep reheating , lol
But I’ not sure how much and what I can eat during the eating window. i put a truvia sweetener and lime in my water during the day and take to bed for during the night.
i understand no sugar but I don’t know what else I can eat or shouldn’t eat. i feel like I’m doing this off the cuff!
Dr Jemnatis (my cardiologist ) is also doing seminars on you tube and when I continue this for a few weeks, I will make an appt which I am due for anyway!
when u say eating window, do u mean i can eat (the right things) from 6-9 if I want? gail
What about pork rinds..if you keep it under 200 cal.?
I take small fatty snack when get hungry pain attack. It help and I stay in keto tell test strips. I eat 30 % of calculated energy consumption.

Oh my gosh I was doing this to help me already and it really helped with my 72 hr fasting.
I have not made it to 5 days yet but I will
So excited adding LMNT to my practice 😃
All of the information you provide really helps me as well !!
Once your body is conditioned to the 72Hr, the 120Hr will not seem so daunting. I have done it twice, but honestly for some reason the 2nd one was tougher than the first. Currently 22hr in on my 3rd one. It starts to be more mental than physical, when you realize that, it becomes easier..
How about macadamia nuts?
I've "broke fast" in the evening with a boiled egg & avocado with nutritional yeast & olive oil. I shed 4# overnight 2 separate times, regardless. But if I eat after 8, I HALT any progress I was making. I had that snack @ 48 hrs on a 96 hr fast..... or I did 2 consecutive 48 hrs...
Please suggest, can the bullet proof coffee with little butter can be a fasting snack?
The olives I have at home contains zero carbs and 0,5 grams protein per 100 grams 😮
This is a great video! Thank you.
🙏
I've been in menopause for 7 years and about 5kg overweight, which I have struggled now for 4 years to lose. Impossible! But since fasting my weight has dropped so quickly, I am utterly amazed. Menopause does not have to be a 'death' sentence for weight loss. It is really true that less snacking is making all the difference. No I can have a feast day once a week and get back to fasting for the rest of the week. I play between 14 and 17-hour fasts.
🙌
Keto cups and eggs are my favorite way to break a fast.
I can’t wait to try the Andreas seed oils!
So in each 12 hours I should do fasting snack
@@lightoolineo1707 It helps to vary your fasts, that’s why Dr.Mindy does several different videos on the different kinds of fasts you can do. You can do intermittent fasting and work your way into a longer fast, just make sure you plan ahead and watch her other videos on fasting.
It will also help you to join fast training week if you can.
The feast is just as important as the fast, and you should very gently ease out of a fast with the right food for your chosen type of fast and you should vary your fasts.
It’s all covered in the other fasting videos,
Autophagy
Ketosis, etc.
@@lightoolineo1707 watch Dr. Mindy’s videos on varying your fasts. It helps not to always do the same amount every time.
Fasting for beginners is also an important video to watch.
