0:00.0	So if you guys have any questions whatsoever about keto or in a minute fasting,
0:04.4	whether you're starting keto as a new person or just need to debug your program or we have a question about a product.
0:10.5	Call one of our keto consultants. They'll be able to help you. Call 5405.7.
0:29.0	Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Kito and Interminute fasting podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. So in this video I want to answer the question is in a minute fasting really that
0:48.2	different for women compared to men a lot of times I'll get this question
0:51.8	you know I'm female should I be doing in a minute fasting?
0:55.1	I heard it was unhealthy, it's going to mess up my hormones.
0:58.8	So let's just take a look a little bit deeper into that topic. What's the difference between a man and a woman is that
1:05.1	women have a more complete reproductive system, okay? So they have more estrogen, they, their
1:12.0	bodies can make another body, and that's all tied in with survival and
1:15.8	when you go into this topic of starvation that is anti survival right, right? It lowers your survival.
1:24.0	Starving actually decreases your lifespan.
1:26.4	So that's going to create a lot of problems with the endocrine system,
1:29.5	hormones, etc. But here's what I want to differentiate. We got starvation, we got fasting, and a low calorie
1:37.8	diet. When you do a low calorie diet, you're actually cutting down the food that you're eating and usually you're
1:45.2	creating nutritional deficiencies. All right? When you're doing fasting, you've created an adaptation to running your body off fat. The meals that are
1:55.8	recommended should not be low calorie meals if you're doing it healthily
2:00.8	because we want to provide for all of your nutrients. So overall you are cutting
2:06.8	calories because you're not eating so frequently, but in that actual meal you are satisfying your nutrients. Now when you're starving
2:15.2	you're creating nutritional deficiencies all over the place okay and you pretty
2:20.0	much tapped out your fat now you're running running off muscle protein, and you're hungry all the time, right?
2:25.9	You're extremely hungry, it's called starvation.
