Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting Podcast, where Dr.

Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.

Okay, so at another question, will intermittent fasting slow my metabolism?

Because when I was consuming three meals, 1,800 calories, then I switched down to two meals,

1,500 calories, and now I'm at 1,000 calories for one meal.

Wouldn't this be considered a low calorie diet, 1,000 calories?

Well, this is what you're missing.

When you're doing low carb as in keto, you're also going to be tapping into your body fat.

Okay, so you're going to add more calories of fat from your own body's reserve, whereas

doing a high carb diet, you're not able to tap into your own body's fat, and you're stuck

with exactly 1,000 calories from the diet, and that is going to slow the metabolism down.

So no, intermittent fasting, if you combine keto, will not slow the metabolism down.

Does that make sense?

I hope so.
