In this podcast, I want to talk about the new cholesterol test guidelines, and why you should fast before a cholesterol test. 

In the past, it was required to fast for twelve hours before your cholesterol test. Now, you don’t have to fast. They now say that you can eat before your test because:

1. Eating doesn’t affect cholesterol that much.

2. It’s less hassle for the patient, doctor, and lab.

I think this is bad advice. When you eat before the test, you’re adding in so many different variables that could affect your cholesterol.

If you’re on keto, you’re consuming more fat. The fat in your blood (triglycerides) will go up if you consume fat in your meal. This can alter the test, and it won’t give you a consistent baseline when you test over time. The lipids in your blood will change depending on what you eat. 

I think it may be best to always do at least a twelve-hour fast before you get your cholesterol test.

In this podcast, I’m going to talk about why you want to always fast during an infection. 

Fasting is a powerful tool—it delays aging, and it can even extend your lifespan. It also has powerful immune system effects. 

When you get sick, you often lose your appetite. This is your body’s natural way to boost your immunity.

Ketones have profound protective properties, including antimicrobial effects. 

When you fast, you also increase the survival of your T-cells and B-cells. T-cells run the immune system, kill microbes, and reduce inflammation. B-cells have to do with making antibodies, which have a “memory” to better fight off future infections. 

T-helper cells are also boosted when you fast. These cells coordinate all other immune actions—like the general of the army. 

If you fast long enough, you induce autophagy. Autophagy is when your body starts to clean up old, damaged cells and recycles them. Autophagy also helps control viral infections, decrease inflammation, and presenting antigens. 

A 3-day fast can have profound effects on your immune system. You will trigger the stem cells that regenerate the immune system. 

Continue taking vitamins and minerals while you fast—especially vitamin D. You can also take oregano oil, garlic, and olive leaf extract to boost your immunity.

The number one sign that your child is eating too much sugar is moodiness. Changes with their mood like grouchiness, irritability, and whining may be happening because they're consuming too much sugar. 

Popular foods for kids that have hidden sugar:

 • Orange juice

 • Apple sauce 

 • Fruit juice

 • Fruit snacks

 • Granola bars 

 • Vitamin water

 • Mac' n' cheese

Moodiness can be the first symptom, because what happens is the blood sugars go up, insulin kicks in and pushes the blood sugars down, and now they have low blood sugar. Moodiness is a symptom of low blood sugar. 

Sugar, in general, interferes with different parts of the brain and the production of certain neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine. These neurotransmitters calm the nervous system. 

Sugar blocks the absorption of vitamin C. In the presence of sugar, the body can't absorb vitamin C. Vitamin C is necessary to make neurotransmitters. 

Sugar also depletes zinc, vitamin B1, potassium, and magnesium. All of these are key minerals and vitamins that help calm a child down. 

When a child is consuming too much sugar, they could:

 • Be hyperactive

 • Have attention deficit problems

 • Have a difficult time learning, studying, and retaining information

In this podcast, I want to talk about the difference between fasting and starving. When does fasting become starvation? 

You first need to know that the average non-overweight person is carrying around 100,000 calories of fat on their body. They are only carrying about 1,700 calories of stored sugar. 

If you weighed 150 lbs, you would burn around 1,000-2,000 calories per day. This means that you have around 67 days worth of calories stored on your body. 

The difference between fasting and starving is that with fasting, you’re living off of your fat fuel. When you’re starving, you’ve already used up all of your fat fuel, and you begin burning your muscle and organs for fuel. 

If you have 100-200 lbs of extra fat, you have many calories stored. 

The effects of fasting and starving are different. When you’re fasting, you don’t feel hungry—when you’re starving, you do. 

When you’re starving, you also feel irritable, apathetic, fatigued, and weak. You also develop nutrient deficiencies when you’re starving. 

Fasting helps you feel energetic, focus, and calm. Intermittent fasting alone will not cause starvation. 

While you’re fasting, make sure you take nutrients, so you don’t develop a deficiency.

In this podcast, I want to talk to you about how fasting affects your body. I’ve created a lot of videos on intermittent fasting. But in this one, I want to give you an overview of just how powerful it really is. 

Brain - Fasting stimulates BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor). This stuff is like Miracle Grow for the brain. BDNF helps repair and regenerate neurons. Fasting also helps with stress resistance, neurogenesis, mitochondrial production, and reducing inflammation. 

Liver - Intermittent fasting helps improve your liver by restoring insulin sensitivity. Fasting also helps your liver function by detoxifying the body, acting as an antioxidant, reducing fatty liver, and lowering inflammation. 

Gut - Intermittent fasting helps improve the diversity of your gut microbes. It also helps reduce the inflammation in your gut that contributes to the leaky gut syndrome. Additionally, fasting helps prevent SIBO (small intestine bacterial overgrowth). 

Immunity - Fasting improves your immunity. It helps you become immune to pathogens by increasing the strength, size, and quality of white blood cells. Prolonged fasts (72+ hours) help produce stem cells—which basically helps you grow a new and stronger immune system.

Should you look at a nut as a protein or fat? Nuts are actually a combination, but let me explain. 

When comparing different kinds of nuts, you can see that certain nuts are way more of a fat than a protein, but there is some protein. Many people also don’t realize that nuts have carbs as well, it’s low, but there are some carbs, and they can add up. 

All of these nuts that we are going to look at today can fit into the keto diet. However, if you’re trying to lose weight, you might not want to go crazy eating pistachios because they’re higher in carbs. But, if you want to gain weight while still being on a keto diet, pistachios might be a good type of nut to focus on. If you want to lose weight, macadamia nuts may be a better choice. Pecans are low in oxalates, while almonds are higher in oxalates. So, if you’re prone to kidney stones, you may want to avoid almonds.
