The INSANE BENEFITS Of Fasting & Foods You Need To STOP EATING! | Dr. Pradip Jamnadas

I've been eating one meal a day for a bit more than 15 years. It wasn't a plan. I've never been a breakfast eater, and I got really busy with work and started skipping lunches and enjoying a meal in the evening. I liked eating this way and decided to stick with it. Everyone in my life tells me that I am going to get nutritional deficiencies and that I am damaging my body. I'm trim. I'm fit. I'm never sick. They are all mostly overweight and taking prescribed meds for various ailments. To appease everyone, I had a physical checkup and had blood work done. My blood work was perfect, but the doctor referred me to a nutritionist when I told him about my one meal a day eating. I met the nutritionist. She was horrified by my eating style. My main sources of calories are potatoes and beans. I eat all varieties of potatoes and all the varieties of beans. I make a huge pot of beans from dry beans every week. Freeze half of it and eat the other half during the week with steamed potatoes (I cut them up before steaming). My main condiment is salsa. I also usually toss a small handful of walnuts on top before I sit down to eat. Sometimes I add other veggies like broccoli, mushrooms or bok choy to the pot of steaming potatoes, but for most meals it's just potatoes and beans with salsa and walnuts. My desert is usually just a piece of fruit if I have it, which can be an orange, an apple or a bowl of berries. I drink water, nothing else. No booze. No juices. No coffee. No soda. The nutritionist gave me a bunch of literature about meal planning. She wanted me to eat three meals a day and include dairy products in my diet. She was nice and seemed genuinely concerned about me, but she was also fat. I didn't adopt any of her advice. It's two years later. I'm still healthy, fit, and trim and enjoying potatoes and beans. Everyone in my life is still telling me that I am going to get sick. After 15+ years, maybe tomorrow is the day.

My daughter, age 11, is never hungry in the morning - so she doesn't want breakfast and I have never forced her to eat. I think by forcing kids to eat at a certain time (or finishing their plate) we send the message that they should ignore their hunger cues, which is a bad long-term strategy for eating competency as they grow up.

I persuaded my mother to start fasting after force feeding her these videos 🤣 she's 83 we have been doing IF for just over a year and eat clean. We have both lost 50lbs and her lymphodema has gone, both our asthma has cleared up and I swear to god before we started she was showing slight signs of dementia, but those have gone now! Totally medication free household now. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much Dr pradip jamnadas and also credit to Dr Jason Fung....lifesaving hero's ❤ 💙 😊

Who else listens to these videos whilst fasting ? 🙋

I have been morbidly obese on and off all my life. I'm 61 now, and lost 75kg in 14 months with intermittent fasting. It's the only thing that worked for me, and I'm keeping the weight off🤞

Thank you for having me on your show! Great to have this conversation shared with the world!

I've lost 155 lbs over the last year and a half. I'm on day 30 of a water fast to eliminate the last of my excess fat and skin. In the last month 25 lbs have melted away and I feel great. 18 months ago I was 375 lbs watching YouTube videos of people who overcame obesity and thinking "I wish I could do that." I'm now reaching the shape I was in in my early 20s. I started all this when I turned 61. You can do this. Keto and intermittent fasting are key.

I have been raised on a ranch , fed all natural foods, organic, grass fed meats, wild caught fish, tight Loving peaceful family. Fasting became a part of who I am, as well as strong spiritual beliefs. My best friend is the Lord, Jesus . Thank you for this most important show ever. I. Appreciate you both & am very thankful for your expertise & beliefs. God bless you both with joy. Thank you so much.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

The reason lots of doctors don't promote fasting is that they won't make any money. But Dr Pradip is a true manitarian. He genuinely care about people. I love his mind set. Thanks doc

“Self imposed scarcity”. When I got my sense of control of what I put into my body, and my habits, it was with fasting. My in my head mantra was “it will still be there tomorrow.” “There’s plenty”. There’s no scarcity in my mindset. Be it food, money, health. So, I don’t have to smash and grab anything. I’m mentally living in abundance.

I am a heart patient based in India. I can tell you this Doctor Jamnadas is next to God. He's one of those few whose are making a real and lasting change to this world, for better.

My BP went down from140/90 to 120/70 just from slowly reducing carbs and eating breakfast late, say 10 or 11am. I'm 72, on no meds, and never felt better. But I figured it out for myself. Doctors won't tell you (except here).

We need more doctors like this interested in fixing the problems not just masking them ❤️

What the Dr. says at the beggining is esential: we won't have enough willpower to fast if we don't have our mind in order. I quit smoking more than 6 months ago, I quit a job that I didn't like so much, my anxiety went down a lot and now I am at peace. I can do everything I set my mind to. I'm in control.

My daughter was a skinny child and we kept getting told she was under weight. After getting rather annoyed I asked based off what. They said based of the national average. I pointed out the the national average is obese here in the states so maybe the easiest way to fix the system is to quit basing it off broken averages and baselines so the system doesn't keep contributing to the problem. I could tell in a moment, I hurt the ego of this doctor, but in a split second, you could see the light come on. Our visits became far more beneficial instead of the typical superficial.

I am on my 14th day of intermittent fasting. I am doing 18/6 I was eating twice a day once at the top of my six hour window and very little at the end of the six hour window. I started at 300 pounds I am 67 years old. I’ve lost 18 pounds the first two weeks. I’m starting to feel great. I have a hard time sleeping seven hours straight but I’m getting there. My knee pain is getting worse and my inflammation in my body. Seems like it’s getting better already, I’ve been overweight all my life and I believe this is going to do it for me. I’m hoping to lose 150lbs.

The FREEDOM is huge. My first extended fast taught me something no diet ever did before, that I didn't have to eat when there wasn't appropriate food. HUGELY empowering.

Eating healthy is easy working out is easy fasting is easy. Deprogramming your mind is the hard part. These constructs have been drilled into our minds since birth. SET YOURSELF-FREE!!!!

I started IF in November 2018. I was going through a real personal disaster, feeling lost, completely low. I found it on youtube and on a whim, I just did a 18hr fast and guess what "nothing happened". I experimented and got to 20:4 pretty fast even with work and everything. Since then, I have recommended it to many people I care about. I agree with all the benefits but as a layman: 1. My confidence in my own body has gone up exponentially. I am more grateful for my health, I am extremely tuned into the feedback from my body. 2. My will power has gone up. 3. I now have added about an hour of meditation daily. 4. I have since graduated to cold showers, running marathons and ultras, and to entrepreneurship. It is freedom, good health, gratitude, confidence, will power, everything. Once you realize what an exquisite piece of machinery this body really is, you treat it better and you treat yourself better and that reflects in everything else that you do.

I fast for 7 days straight(water only) once a month. I still go to the gym on days 1, 2, 4, 6, 7. I lost 120lbs in 9 months with very little loose skin.
