FASTING FACTS TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND BETTER
FASTING AND STARVATION: CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEVE,FASTING IS NOT
STARVATION! During a fast, the body is braking down the fat in the body that is being stored,
while conserving the essential tissue and muscles. Fasting causes the body to use Fat for
energy! Starvation however, is the point to which the body has used up all of its fat,tissues,
muscles and reserves. Starvation begins to break the body down of its own essential tissues.
This is starvation..... A very big difference between fasting. The point of starvation for a human
being of normal weight can take quite some time to happen. Some scientist believe it can take up
to 35 days or more for the body to go into starvation mode. Of course this is for someone of
normal weight and eating habits.
FASTING AND RESTRICTIVE DIETING: Severe restrictive diets and fasting can be dangerous!
In many cases it can be life threatening! Unlike fasting for different terms this type of severely
restrictive diets and fasting completely puts your body into shock mode. Ketosis starts to set in...
This is when the bodies fundamental process of sparing essential tissues from breaking down
stops. It starts using the essential tissues and breaking down the organs. Severe diets and
fasting can also cause the body to lose to much of its greater percentage of lean body tissue and
muscle mass. Body reserves become dangerously low and eventually become used up just like
gas in a car when it runs out.... You need to refuel. Sometime the body after long abuse can not
get back on the right track. This is why everyone should be aware of the dangers of this type of
dieting. When trying to lose weight try to think about your body and how it will respond. You only
get one body and if your dieting you are trying to make it look better.. And feel better right?
FASTING AND CALORIE RESTRICTION DIETING: Okay this one I live by. I have always done
this type of diet and maintained a size 0-2. This type of lifestyle is very healthy and scientist
believe you will live longer! See my article on this subject and The 14 day diet.... This is just 14
days but you can really get the idea. Also if you go to Questia.com you can look at this book The
120 Year Diet and Beyond by one of the Calorie Restricting Guroo's.Calorie Restriction is an
extremely healthy diet unlike restrictive dieting. The bodies energy from food is just enough to
result in a sharply elevated levels of growth hormone, while eliminating the need to break down
essential tissue and muscles.
THE LONG,SHORT AND MEDIUM FASTS: Everyone should do short term fasts unless the
doctor tells them otherwise. Of course there are always people who for medical reasons should
not fast. In general Long term fasts should be conducted for no longer than 28-35 days. Most
long term fasts are really only for 20 days. LONG TERM FASTING and SEVERE DIETING IS
NEVER RECOMMENDED IT PUTS THE BODY INTO STARVATION MODE! Most of all the
miraculous benefits from fasting can be achieved with a 3-5 day fast. Even a 3-5 day soup or
juice fast most people can see benefits. 7-14 day fast is a healing fast. This type of fast cleanses
the body and detoxes it as well. The medium fasts are usually 14-20 days and show amazing
benefits. All fasts can do miraculous things for the body. A regeneration of the body that takes
years off of your life.
After the third day of a fast the body begins to make ketone in the liver... Ketosis. In the absence
of ketone bodies are produced by the body as an alternate from of energy. Normally the levels of
ketone in the blood are level after the fourth day or so they approach 3.0mm and steadily rise. If
you don't eat at all during the fat this will make your benefits rise! Eating will quickly shift the body
out of ketosis and back into its normal routine for your metabolism.... Decreasing the growth
hormones that are being produced by the fast and increasing hunger.
The big challenge of fasting is obviously not eating... Hello it is hard to go without food! I know!
The big thing to think about is really just the short term fasting... After the first 1-3 days your
hunger levels will fluctuate. This is usually just before the body is starting to shift into ketosis
mode. After the 3rd day you will notice that you are not hungry... Well your hunger levels will have
definitely noticeably decreased. After day 5 the desire for food is decreased even more and by
10days usually your hunger levels are almost non-existent.
While fasting most people lose 1 pound a day some lose more depending on water retention and
exercise..... Metabolism Etc make sure you drink plenty of water all the time while fasting.... And
not tap water please!! No food fasting is great for the body but you need to drink plenty of bottled
water or distilled water to dilute the pathogenic materials and facilitate elimination of toxins of the
skin and kidneys. Some fasters do a 3 day no drink or food fast this is helpful to relieve the body
of severe pollutants within the body but is very difficult to do healthily.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND WEIGHT LOSS: Basically to lose weight the body has to burn more
calories than it consumes. If you take in more energy (calories) You know calories are energy
right? The calories you take in is stored as fat. FAT IS FAT AND MUSCLE IS MUSCLE ONE
DOES NOT TURN INTO THE OTHER! First take a look at your BMI for a male :66plus 13.7
multiplied bodyweight in kg. Plus 5 times height in cm minus 6.8 multiplied by age years. For a
female :65 plus 9.6 times weight in kg plus 1.7 multiplied by height in cm minus 4.7 multiplied age
in years.
Okay now that you know your BMI you can determine the correct calorie intake for you a day. At
this stage you can burn more calories by exercise and the more exercise you do the more weight
you will lose and the more muscle you will gain. Muscles weigh more than fat and so sometimes
the scale might say more and the measuring tape will say LESS. You should measure yourself
and weigh yourself to keep an accurate diary of your weight and measurements for better results
in any diet and exercise program!
^You can also buy a heart monitor to see if you are at your target heart rate for the 20 minutes
needed to burn calories and considered cardiovascular exercise. 3656 Calories equal one
pound.... Most people round this number down to 3500 because it is easier to figure out formulas
so lets do it this way....
3500 calories = 1 pound
1 kilogram =2.2 pounds
770calories =1 kilogram so to lose 1 kilogram in a weeks time you must burn 7700 excess
calories during the week(7days) or 3500 if we are working in those numbers... Get it? As far as
we know today these formulas are scientifically proven to be true. But, the human body is
extremely unpredictable everyone's body is different and burns calories and uses calories
differently.
