Started with some 72 hour fasts about a year ago and been mostly on 18:6 daily with majority whole plant base the results are pretty incredible , lost about 50 pounds and 2 lumps have vanished . I've quit drinking alcholol mostly and wake up every day around 5 am and drink nothing but water until noon . And I'll do walking , stretching, light weight lifting, cleaning and what ever else keeps me moving. One warning before you start this, you will stop craving fast salty greasy food , you will no longer enjoy eating at fast food , just a warning for those foodies out there. I use to love fast food but just can't do it anymore even when I try. 18 hours of fasting a day with 6 hour feeding window adds up to about 2 whole days of fasting a week . Accumulates to 8 days of fasting a month in 5 months you will have achieved 40 days of fasting. I prefer this method of fasting most the time because you can be more active and does not disrupt bowel movements as much.
Its important to know that some foods are addicting just like alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, opiates...When changing your diet you should know what you are up against and here it is- Their is only about a 20% success rate that people fully and forever recover from their addictions. In other words, whatever substance including food you are dependent on, 80% will relapse/fail.
Yes, something like that is the depressing truth, I'm afraid. Dr. Goldhamer is pretty clear that his program is not for everybody. Thanks for sharing your input.
I’ve been relapsing over and over and I am a huge believer in Dr alan goldhamer I am really tryin to eat the veggies and fruits only but my family has junk in the house and I just crave it! Junk food is almost worse then alcohol or drugs literally I am a recovering alcoholic and drug addict and I am a health nut now and I am tryin so hard to take dr alan goldhamers advice and I am struggling so hard but in the mornings I have plant based only but I get stuck in the pleasure trap at around 12 (noon) and dinner time ugh
I think relapse can be spun to be an esteem building thing. I remind my clients they got a week or two under the belt, and to apply their tools to chip off more and more sober time.
Yes that’s so true but even doing this 70percent has improved my life immensely so even though you probably won’t get it perfectly you still can improve your health
When I'm making good choices, I don't even think about chocolate or soda or my other addictions. Good choices help me to continue making more good choices and improve my health daily. If I slip, I try to follow that with more good choices so I don't stay distracted by the poor choice. Maybe I also have to decide not to go to the wrong places or be in the company of the wrong people, while I am weak. And choose to keep favorite healthy foods around me, in quantity, until my resolve is stronger. One bad choice is ONE bad choice. I can choose again. I can choose better.
Thanks for your feedback! That is very nice of you. I was under the impression that veneta72 was exaggerating, so it's nice to hear that somebody agrees. Thanks again.
Thank you gentlemen, I’ve been wanting to start fasting for awhile and your talk has convinced me to pull the pin and do it, not sure il be doing anywhere near 40days though that sounds brutal.
If I could ever get 40 days off work I would love to really do this properly. I wouldn't cope with working through it, I barely get through the work day well fed!
HILARY CLINTON declared before justice that : " Only the information counts, not its origin " This is in line with Dr GOLDHAMER's statement (at 00:25:00) that : "Politicians give people what they want, and not what they need" Well, so it is a popular managing RULE to follow people's IMAGINATION (individual and collective abstract FUTUR ).

I have just ended my 14 day water fast on day 11 end afster refeeding with bone broth, kimchi, avocado and two egs. I’m now having my fist bowl movement in 11 days and it’s old and hard stool. It was so painfull to release all of this from my body. Do i need to use activated charcoal of something to clean my colon out or just keep refeeding ?
That's why people do this with supervision. This is not an everyday process and we are not experts in everything. Your body is the only place you have to live. Get a professional involved or you will remain confused. Hopefully alive and confused.
It depends on what is in that layer as you cleanse. Keep a journal if you want to analyze it. Making a record may allow you to hold on to thoughts and memories from the past that you are releasing - your 'issues in the tissues'. Maybe pick up the book Clear Body, Clear Mind by Hubbard. Good luck.
And even better listening with headphones on which makes for great productivity. I whiz through the house cleaning with headphones and a good UA-cam podcast and forget I'm cleaning listening to great content. 😊
From what I understand, a 3-day water fast is perfectly safe if a person is not suffering from some sort of unique medical condition. However, don't take this as medical advice. Maybe start with one day and test it out.
I've done two 24 day fasts without supervision.. And I'm type 1 diabetic.. I'm currently on day 17 of my longest fast ever.. 50 days.. You just have to listen to your body..
@@jorgecarrejo And are you doing it alone? I think I’d be more worried about the re feeding , I’m happy if I can do 24 hours Love to hear how far you get and how you managed re feeding
@@claresmith9261 I've done a number of total fasts on my own...2 were for 40 days & nights, one for 21 days & nights, one, 10 days & nights and a few, for 5-7 days. It is required that I recommend you getting approval of your physician but I don't have a physician...personally. I will say you are correct in how important it is to refeed properly. For example, if you fast 40 days, and then dig into a big steak afterwards, it "may" actually kill you. Unfortunately, every time I fasted before, I did not understand how to refeed, and how addictive salt, oil and sugar are.... ... meaning primarily processed foods, so I gained all the weight back relatively quickly. Junk food is like cocaine. From what I hear... You can actually kick the habit, but if you try it just once more, you Are an addict again and have to go through the whole withdrawal thing again if you can bring yourself to do it.
@@HariPPattni I am very sorry but I cannot help you. I recommend calling Dr. Goldhamer. He's easy to find and you can easily schedule a call with him. Best of luck.
@@RicherThanIeverbeen- you mean look around at the people who have gorged on processed foods, grains, sugar, and seed oils? Yeah, none of that is animal products.

I’m not saying don’t eat carbs, but animal products are NOT the reason we’re fat and sick.

Great Interview. Dr Goldhammer is a genius.
I met a Tibetan lama in Nepal who did a special retreat in a sealed hut, and he didn't eat for 3 years and 3 months. He is now teaching the dharma.
That doctor knows what he is doing, I wish I can go to his center someday.
I love goldhamer

On day 4 of a prolonged fast. Maybe I can make it to 20. We’ll see how I’m feeling.
How'd it go?
A powerful msg indeed about fasting ❤
Thank you gentlemen, I’ve been wanting to start fasting for awhile and your talk has convinced me to pull the pin and do it, not sure il be doing anywhere near 40days though that sounds brutal.
Thanks to you and good luck on your fast. I think even skipping one meal can be a good start. Thanks again.
i did 41 days, after day 7 your stomach turns off and is so much easier. you are food obsessed but you are strong to also not break it.
If I could ever get 40 days off work I would love to really do this properly. I wouldn't cope with working through it, I barely get through the work day well fed!
My spouse has vitiligo. Do you have any programs or diets that fights vitiligo?

I have just ended my 14 day water fast on day 11 end afster refeeding with bone broth, kimchi, avocado and two egs.
I’m now having my fist bowl movement in 11 days and it’s old and hard stool.
It was so painfull to release all of this from my body.

Great question and great work. I hope somebody can answer for you. I really don't know.
Keep refeeding and add more fat. You may end up with diarrhea if too much fat, but you can play around with it.
That's why people do this with supervision. This is not an everyday process and we are not experts in everything. Your body is the only place you have to live. Get a professional involved or you will remain confused. Hopefully alive and confused.
How does one end a 14 day fast on day 11?
A 14 day fast should end on day 14, right?
where is that location where we put ppl on 40 day fast?
It's in Santa Rosa, CA. www.healthpromoting.com/

Why would one have gas while fasting? Day 17 of a 50 day fast and I've farted more these passed 17 days than I do when I eat all year..

You eaten nothing for 17 days?
@@HariPPattni I at nothing for 30 days that time.. Just drank water.. And was gassy the whole time.. Made no sense to me..
Microbiome gut bacteria changing?
GI cleaning out old stuff?
@@CalmVibesVee this wasn't my first fast.. Just the only one that gave me gas.. And each was started very similarly.. That's why it doesn't make sense

Why would he resume eating and drinking after three years and three months?
This is true . And you can feed your dopamine addiction with UA-cam watching .
And even better listening with headphones on which makes for great productivity. I whiz through the house cleaning with headphones and a good UA-cam podcast and forget I'm cleaning listening to great content. 😊
Does anyone know how long it’s safe to fast on your own like is 3 days too long? Thanks 🙏

When you say fasting from 5 to 40 days, does that mean person eats nothing for 40 days?? Is it possible to survive that long without any food?
It's definitely possible, but getting a doctor check up first is really important. Thanks for your interest.
