You Must Eat This Before A Fast! - Heal The Body With Food | Dr. Mindy Pelz

What if your aim isnt to burn fat and lose weight? Feel like this is all centred around losing weight where Im actually very small and im scared I lose too much weight in this process.... :((

What if I ate starches before my fast? What can I do

Beginners guide please

I'm trying to find your information about fennel seeds

@DrMindyPelz do you have any videos on nuts and seeds?

where do you find raw grass fed cheese? In my state it's illegal. I think.

Remember fermented from the Supermarket can be done in vinegar you dont want that you want pure fermented

Love your great advice! Where did you get your super cool jacket?

I can't do fermented foods- I have an eating disorder called AFRID ...probiotics or ACV?
Hopefully coffee counts as a bitter food .....I can do lemon water too

I've been doing 16 - 17 hour fasts for a week and a half now and still the ketone stick shows negative.

I started IF mid July. I’m down 28 pounds. I feel great. I have 15 more to go. Eating is a healthy and what nature gave us is a life style. Sugar is hard to give up but doable.

Thank you, Dr Mindy.

You mentioned 1 gram of carb per the weight you want to be. Per day?

Not sure what I did wrg. Watched my first video last sat., got so excited I started fasting then and there. I fasted for 40 hrs. When I stopped, I ate protein and Vegs. I fasted 129 hrs. In total that first week. 40,17.5,19.5,24,19 eating "healthy" in between. I am same weight. I thought I would lose at least water weight.

Academy

Is Grape seed oil a good oil?

So much information; I just watched a video where you said something about just 20 grams of protein... I'm not sure if that was in a serving, a day, or I'm losing my mind.

Apart from hummus and lentils, any other good options for vegetarians for protein?

Thank you❤❤

Dr. Mindy
Big comment of pure gratitude to you and your team! I have been ravenously consuming your curriculum since mid June this year. I’m 51 and have already gone through menopause however without your guidance I would never have been able to make sense of what I had just gone through over those past 5-6 years ! It was such a relief to understand what happened and why I was the way I was🙏 I have been enjoying the fasting lifestyle for just over 3 months, I have lost almost 25 lbs, I feel almost like my 40 year old self (which I believe was the best shape of my life) and it’s bc I stumbled upon your interview with Diary of a CEO! I have read all your books, gifted them to my family members and would love to assist in any efforts you create to bring this message to our young women before they hit puberty!!! This is the education women need in order to avoid all the pitfalls that we have gone through. It dosent have to been painful if we can educate way ahead of time!
You have a lifelong friend here I just wanted to write and say thank you! From the bottom of my heart ❤️

I’m currently on day three of a 5 day fast. My question is if I take MCT and Olive oil with Himalayan salt and some supplements (magnesium, Vit D, iron, Vit A) which I take normally, will they break my fast???

I know you say to go 3 to 5 days with the good food but for those of us who really do want to jump in is it OK to jump in without eating all those foods like I want to start right now lol

Hi Dr Mindy after breaking my back in 5 places I have lost 8kg in 10 weeks. I am a type 2 diabetic insulin and diet controlled. When I do my fast and I need glucose jellybeans to bring up my levels to around 5 do the jellybeans cancel out or interrupt the fast?

Is dosa batter considered as one of the fermented?
Dosa is a type of pancake made from fermented batter of rice and blackgram lentils. What is your opinion on this?

You mentioned Walnut butter a while ago - we do not have that product in SA, what are your thoughts on Macadamia nut butter?

Hi Mandy, is running ok to do when fasting as I often get a headache/ feel sick if I don’t eat. Obviously I do drink lots of water and normally would have food beforehand. I go in the morning when I’m meant to be fasting so….? Thank you, Natalie

Hi, could you please tell me when I am out of my fast, am I still to stick to strict keto. I have done several 16/8 hour fasts. I was not experiencing much weight loss. I tried a 36 and a couple 20 hour fasts. There are only a couple things that are questionable. I use munk fruit sweetener in my coffee during fasts. During the off fast time I add sugar free creamer to my coffee. Weeks have gone by and I have only lost 3 lbs. do you think that these two things could be the culprit?

Your sweet doggies!!!!!!!❤

Thank you for this video!

Okay- Thanks, but I do not understand... I am rushing into this so as a newbie (day 4) - this is amazing so I saved this video for next month. I every 3-4 months so technically do have a cycle at 58 I start with your app from the bood (moon cycle) and I am in 1-10 days blood sugar is down to 97 (yeah) - during my 8 hr window I can only get 2 meals in because I am no longer hungry but I feel nourished. I will keep this up until I understand more. 😀

I bought 'Fasting like a Girl' on Audible yesterday. It mentions a complimentary pdf with figures and charts ,any times but I couldn't figure out how to download it. Can you send me in the right direction?

There’s a lot to keep track of.

fiber......i eat zero fiber and im fine lol

Thank you so much for the free guide to start! I just signed up. I’ve been ADF for 2 weeks after watching many video. I just ordered your book Fast, Feast, Repeat, but it doesn’t come for 2 days. So I’m super excited to access this free information now!

Wow. Very enlightening. Thank you

The dutch test

Dr Mindy where can we find the water you talk about that makes a longer fast easier? Thank you.

What are the healthy oils Dr Mindy mentioned?

Is peanut oil healthy?

Can I use Appel cider vinegar during a 40 hour fast?

One question @drmindy
You said fermented yogurt it is just the normal yogurt or do you get fermented yogurt ,i know i sound silly but here in South Africa i didn't come across fermented yogurt before

can type this list?

What about histamine intolerance? I'm not supposed to do fermented foods even though I love them.

Thank you!!!!

That was great. Thank you. A quick question for you please. Fermented tea such as pu-erh tea is good enough to drink daily if not fond of kefir etc....

Should have watched this before my 6 day fast.

Omg. list please! we can always come back, or as I often do cast to the tv, but for pity's sake cut to the chase!!!
