0:00.0	So I had this question presented on my live show and I wanted to just clarify a couple
0:26.8	things because I think there's a lot of confusion between fasting and ketosis. Okay, so let's
0:34.1	first talk about fasting. When you're fasting, you're not eating anything. Okay, you're drinking
0:39.2	water and you're fasting. If you consume supplements that are not like bone broth or branch
0:46.0	amino acids, like protein type stuff or carbs, especially like any type of shakes and things
0:53.1	like that, then you're fasting. Okay, so if you're just taking some vitamins and minerals,
0:58.2	that's not going to necessarily break your fast. It may not be a true fast. Okay, a true
1:03.4	fast is just water. I'm pointing this out because I don't want people to do fasting without
1:08.2	sea salt in certain nutrients, electrolytes and be vitamins because I've had people like
1:14.5	faint and have side effects and issues. So I want to make sure they have enough nutrients,
1:18.9	especially if they're new to it. But the point is that anything you eat is going to break
1:23.5	fasting except drinking water and most supplements. Okay, so does that make sense? So there's
1:31.0	eating some celery going to break fasting. Yes, chocolate going to break fasting. Yes, chewing gum
1:36.1	going to break fasting. Yes. So now let's switch over here to I think what people really want to
1:41.5	know, which is not necessarily, is it going to break my fasting? Is it going to break my ketosis?
1:48.0	Okay, and by the way, when you're doing fasting, you are definitely in some hardcore ketosis.
1:53.6	But people want to know what food specifically or what drink will stop my ketosis. So let's just
2:00.2	cover this right here. What you need to know is that there's something in your small intestine
2:06.5	that every time you eat anything, you are going to have a spike in insulin. The more carbohydrate
2:13.7	it is, the more it's going to spike insulin, the more fat pure fat it is, the less it's going to
2:20.1	trigger insulin. Okay, but it might trigger it a little bit. So what's going to bump you out of
2:24.2	ketosis? Pretty much any meal is going to bump you out of ketosis. But there's a huge difference
