  • hey guys dr. Berg here in this video we're gonna share with you the power of

  • intermittent fasting okay now intermittent fasting is a tool

  • it's not a diet it doesn't tell you what to eat it's a pattern of eating okay

  • it's as a pattern of eating and not eating that you it's not about cutting

  • calories it's just changing when you eat and when you don't eat okay so that's

  • all going to talk about so why would you want to do this anyway because it is one

  • if not the most important factors in weight loss okay let's talk about why

  • because it triggers two main hormones in your body the most powerful ones one is

  • growth hormone which is anti-aging and the most powerful fat burning hormone

  • there are six fat burning hormones growth hormone is the most powerful fat

  • burning hormone to protect your muscles to build lean body mass and also

  • just to lose actual fat okay and then you have insulin insulin is also a very

  • powerful hormone in that it actually will help you store that if you want to

  • gain weight which you don't want to do that you want to lose weight but here's

  • the thing and the presence of insulin you cannot lose weight it's such a

  • dominating hormone it will block growth hormone so it's the hormone that makes

  • you fat it's the hormone that gives you the gut if you see someone with a fat

  • gut they have too much insulin so these are the two powerful hormones that

  • you're going to influence now let's look at what's happening this tool or

  • technique can really heal insulin resistance where you have the pancreas

  • pumping out way more insulin than you need five to seven times because what

  • happens when you have too much insulin the cells start blocking it and then

  • your body doesn't get the return communication so it's like talking your

  • child and they have ear plugs you're going to increase your volume because

  • the person is ignoring you there's no two-way communication so but the

  • pancreas doesn't get the feedback that the insulin is connecting its sends more

  • insulin through the channel so you have a

  • situation where you have resistance of insulin it's not working low insulin in

  • the cell low glucose but then you have high amounts of insulin in other places

  • which is very destructive causes pre-diabetes it creates a lot of

  • problems okay so what we want to do is we want to

  • start where you're at and then graduate this way over time it's kind of like

  • there's different levels of intermittent fasting from not intermittent fasting to

  • some serious fat burning over here so let's say you start with five meals a

  • day or six meals to six meals a day you have breakfast lunch snacks some people

  • do breakfast snack lunch snack dinner snack right that's a lot of people that

  • do that the principle of intermittent fasting hormone only is that every time

  • you eat you spike insulin see people have thought that only when you eat

  • carbohydrates you spike insulin no no eating in general will increase insulin

  • no regardless of what you eat even if snack you if it's healthy so we

  • have a situation where this person's spiking insulin all day long our bodies

  • they're not designed to eat and graze all day long so we want to switch to

  • three meals a day with no snacks okay so that's the first step three mils a day

  • no snacking the ability to go from one meal to the next without being hungry

  • involves eating more fat okay so you have to add more fat to that meal I'm

  • gonna put some links down what to eat but this is this videos not about what

  • to eat it's about the pattern so you get three meals here and then if you want to

  • take it to the next level and burn even more fat you want to do a pattern of 16

  • to 8 16 hours of fasting an eight-hour window of eating okay so let's say you

  • get up in the morning and you're not hungry well don't eat wait until you're

  • hungry the ideal situation is to go for hours when you wake up for at least four

  • hours before you eat the first meal so let's say you're you get you eat at 10

  • o'clock okay in the morning so and you got up at

  • 6 so that means that your last meal is going to be

  • six o'clock at night so you have an eight-hour window where this you might

  • get up and eat at 8:00 then you might eat at 8:00 at night so you really

  • haven't given enough fasting a little bit in between but not the real power of

  • in a minute fasting is through the night and in the morning and that actually at

  • like at nighttime when you're sleeping and then in the morning that's when you

  • really have the uninterrupted serious fat burning not necessarily is much

  • between the meals but it is a factor so that's why we want sixteen hours of

  • fasting with this so we try to keep that window and you have your three meals

  • okay does that make sense now if we want to take it even further and really turn

  • on the fat-burning you we want to go to two meals but we want a window of 20

  • hours of fasting you know what that would do to your your waistline your

  • stomach so we go for 20 hours fasting and only four hour window of eating so

  • we want we want to get up and wait until let's say twelve o'clock or one have the

  • first meal and then have the next meal four hours later so let's say you get

  • you eat at 1:00 then your next meal is at 5:00 okay so you have four hours

  • there where you basically you ate but then you have 20 hours of serious fat

  • burning if we then add in a minute fat exercise to that high-intensity interval

  • training then it's it's over that would be the icing on the cake well maybe I

  • shouldn't say I see in the game that's gonna be the meat and potatoes no don't

  • don't listen to me but the point is that it's going to take some time to

  • transition over to these different levels okay don't think it happens in a

  • minute if you've destroyed your metabolism through dieting or the HCG

  • diet which is 500 calories or some other stress event then what's going to happen

  • it's going to take some time to gradually kind of move over to the next

  • one but you'll get comfortable we don't want

  • you to be headachy and have a lot of side effects between the meals so you

  • want to overtime in this this transition from here to here could take you know

  • three weeks but this one could take a month or two or even three months before

  • you get to this point go taking them longer but then you're really burning

  • fat okay so I just wanted to cover what the powerful the power of this what it

  • is and how you would do it starting here and gradually over here all right put

  • your comments below thanks for watching you know I just wanted to take a moment

  • out to thank you for your amazing feedback that you guys are giving me

  • it's just mind-blowing the successes the wins I created a link down below so you

  • can actually type out your full success story and if you have a before-and-after

  • with weight loss that would be awesome and if you don't have a success with

  • weight but other things just put an image of yourself and your personal
