In this video, I’m going to tell you how to fast correctly for the most fasting benefits without any negative side effects. Fasting CAN help you live longer!

Fasting activates longevity genes, which reduce inflammation and help improve conditions like diabetes and prediabetes. They also protect the cells against disease.

Avoid making these 6 fasting mistakes that can destroy your results.

1. Fasting for too long
There are 2 types of fasting: intermittent fasting and prolonged fasting. Pay attention to how you feel when fasting. If you don't feel well, the fasting pattern is not right for you. You have to build up to a prolonged fast, and you don’t have to do OMAD to get fasting benefits.

2. Not getting enough dietary protein
The type and amount of protein in your diet are very important. Animal protein is the best! Red meat, eggs, lamb, fish, seafood, and organic pasture-raised chicken are the best sources of dietary protein.

When you do OMAD, your body becomes more efficient, and the requirement for protein decreases.

3. Avoiding cholesterol
You need cholesterol, especially when fasting. Cholesterol is needed to make hormones, tissues, bile acid, and more—so you need plenty of it! Egg yolks, liver, and shellfish are the best sources of cholesterol.

4. Forcing an intermittent fasting pattern that doesn’t work for you
Let your body tell you which fasting pattern will work for you. Pay attention to how you feel.

5. Too much exercise while fasting
For some people, exercising while fasting causes too much stress on the body. This can make it difficult to recover and cause muscle loss.

6. Not getting enough sleep can minimize the benefits of fasting.
