I Didn't Eat Anything for 7 Days... This is what happened

Last week, I challenged myself to go without food for 7 days. DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME, I am a Certified Natural Health Practitioner with years of experience fasting and I have also been to TrueNorth Health Center where I fasted with Dr. Michael Klaper and Dr. Alan Goldhamer (who I skype with on day 4 of this video). Water fasting as a therapeutic treatment dates back thousands of years to the days of Socrates, Plato, and Hippocrates, who all recommended fasting for the healing of various conditions. Our biological ability to fast is how our species has survived for the past 400,000 years. Through periods of famine, food scarcity, and natural disaster, our bodies can function normally for quite a long time when only water is ingested. During this time of complete rest from the digestion and assimilation of food, we can expect some fantastic results as the body can now utilize all its energy towards healing. After about three days of fasting, our bodies go into a state of ketosis wherein they switch from burning glucose for fuel to burning ketones (a byproduct of fat metabolism). Modern society is sick because of dietary excess and poor lifestyle choices, suffering from conditions that used to be so rare that they used to be known as the diseases of kings. The wealthy used to be the only ones that could eat in such a way that would cause cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and other inflammatory conditions. Today, it’s so easy to eat like kings, and as a result, we are sicker than ever. Luckily, all the conditions that are the result of poor dietary and lifestyle choices are the ones that respond the best to fasting. Fasting gives the body a chance to mobilize and eliminate these accumulated metabolic products, toxins, and imbalances that are created because of dietary excess. Although most conditions do respond reasonably well to changes in diet alone, therapeutic fasting is a much more powerful intervention that will kick-start the process. Fasting lets the body do what it does best — heal itself. We just need to get out of its way and allow this process to happen. The reason fasting is a not popular treatment is because it’s not very profitable for the medical industry. The results of fasting are very predictable and very consistent, but you can’t make much money giving people water compared to drugs. Some of the most common conditions that respond well to fasting include: • Obesity • Diabetes • Drug addiction (Nicotine, caffeine, alcohol, prescription, recreational) • Arthritis • Lupus • Colitis • Crohn’s disease • Asthma • Eczema, psoriasis • Environmental allergies • Fatigue • Depression • High blood pressure Big thanks to Dr. Alan Goldhamer, founder at TrueNorth Health Center in Santa Rosa California - https://www.truenorthhealthfoundation.org Intro/outro track by Fonn - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bl4zQ-HWkrc Subscribe for more content like this! - http://youtube.com/neardeathexperiment
