What Does Fasting Do To Your Body And Mind?


peace infinite waters diving deep once
again
it’s a gorgeous day today we and even
breathing in that beautiful prana baby
what fasting does to your brain
according to a neuroscientist and
psychologist I get tons of questions on
fasting and we’re fasting today because
we ain’t even had breakfast yet what do
I think about fasting well the professor
of Neuroscience at John Hopkins
University dr. Mattson he gave a
fascinating talk on fasting which really
changed how I saw fasting right he
talked about how just fasting twice a
week can significantly reduce the risk
of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease
his research showed how it promotes DNA
repair
you got more proteins within the brain
he called this the neuro trophic factors
right so you’re building more neurons
especially when you combine fasting with
exercise people live longer they improve
their cardiovascular health whoa that’s
a lot of science today Ralph I know can
I get a hello there let me simplify it
for you all right as a psychologist I
always tell people you go back people
like Plato we’re talking about how
fasting gave them more mental efficiency
right the ancient Egyptians also talked
of that that fasting is a kind of
medicine now this is the seven day vegan
challenge and what’s helped me along my
journey is intermittent fasting right
sometimes I don’t eat breakfast right I
just have some water and two dates right
two days we’re talking about the two
dates again right and then I’m good then
I might eat maybe some watercress I
might do that twice a week right and I’m
getting tons of energy back more mental
clarity
see what the neuroscientists dr. Mattson
so greatly spoke off was that Big Pharma
you see they’re making money when you’re
eating three meals a day do you really
need to eat three meals a day right
because if you start fasting once again
well nobody’s going to buy any food
right supermarkets
yeah food is still going to be on the
shelves so it’s business right how many
people are obese in the world 2.1
billion
come again 2.1 billion so there’s a huge
crisis epidemic with food and health now
I’m not going to tell people to fuss
unless they’ve done their research but I
will tell you that intermittent fasting
has helped me along my journey in all
kinds of ways so what I do is one day of
the week I just take some water with a
few dates right but as a vegan of over
10 years I say wait a minute wait a
minute I’ve been fasting my whole life
can I get a hello there cuz every time
you’re not eating meat or dairy you’re
fasting that’s right you are giving the
vital organs within your body a much
needed rest right so be proud of
yourself right it’s doing wonders for
you so once again too fast or not too
fast that is a question which I will
leave up to you to answer once again do
your research for goodness sakes can I
get a Hello we are out here baby having
fun getting high
infinite waters diving deep once again stay well stay healthy peace you
