55:  What to Do if Your Cholesterol Goes up on Keto or Fasting? (Does it Matter?)

Learn how you can use intermittent fasting to improve your physical and mental health, so you can feel better, live longer, and (potentially) reverse chronic disease.  Ben Tanner, PA-C explains the science and benefits of fasting in basic terms you can understand.  He also shares tips and tricks to help you effectively implement fasting into your lifestyle as painlessly as possible.  The show covers basic physiology about how fasting works, and step-by-step advice on how to get started with intermittent fasting (also known as time-restricted eating), or extended fasting (multiple days).  You’ll also learn about specific health benefits of different types of fasting, so you can choose the best regimen for your needs.  In particular, fasting can be beneficial for people with high blood sugar or high insulin (like type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, or PCOS), high blood pressure, or obesity. It can also benefit people who want to prevent chronic illnesses, such as heart disease, dementia (like Alzheimer's), cancer, or others. (Name = "FastingWell", or "Fasting Well".)  Subscribe today!
