Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto in a minute fasting? Well, good question,

and there's several ways to do it. And let's just kind of go through the different ways.

You have something called the five and two, which actually I do not like it all. Five days of the week, you pretty much eat what you want.

And then for two days, maybe it's going to be on the weekend, you do a version of intermittent

fasting, which is not intermittent fasting. It's basically you reduce your calories down to 500

calories per day. So that's kind of mimicking fasting. So here's the problem.

It takes three to five days to adapt to ketosis. So if you're going to eat what you want for five

days and then for two days go down the 500 calories, you're going to be so hungry and craving. I mean,

what are you trying to achieve? If you're trying to do weight loss, you're going to spike

insulin on these days, and this is going to be so insignificant. So I do not recommend the five and two.

Then you have the every other day fasting where you're not eating anything for one day and then one

day you're eating back and forth again it's going to be rough because it takes three to five days

to fully adapt to ketosis to the point where you're like nearly 100% especially if you have

insulin resistance but the point is it takes longer.

So every other day doesn't allow you to do much adaptation. So I recommend you do daily intermittent

fasting. So one of these right here. You have 16 and 8, which is probably the most common.

So you're fasting for 16 hours, but your eating window is 8 hours.

So let's say the time between your breakfast and your dinner or your lunch and your dinner

is a total of 8 hours because they don't really specify if you're going to do two meals or 3 meals,

but you have an 8-hour eating window,

but then you have 16 hours of fasting. For the average person, this might be a very good thing.

Now, the key is not snacking, of course. And also, what might be good is if you were to do this
