My experience fasting for a week straight, including how I was feeling on day 6 of this extended fast; what kind of results I got in terms of energy levels, body weight, blood sugar, ketones, etc. Plus other thoughts and observations about why this prolonged fast went remarkably well.
Some of what I talk about here could definitely be useful if you're considering doing a prolonged fast, or if you've done it before and had some challenges.

Detailed results from a case series of 3 patients who got off insulin and other type 2 diabetes medications very quickly.
These patients also lost weight, improved their hemoglobin A1c, and reduced their waist circumference.
Overall, super-impressive results, and very encouraging for anyone who wants to put type 2 diabetes in remission!

A new research study (from earlier this year) shows the rates of type 2 diabetes remission and other health improvements after almost 3 years on a low-carb diet (similar to keto). This was in a general practice clinic in England, with Dr. David Unwin. The patients also showed weight loss, improved blood pressure, lower LDL cholesterol, lower triglycerides, and saved money on medications. I'll break down the details of this new research study in today's episode.

Salt is a SUPER-important topic for anyone who’s fasting, or eating low-carb. Salt is also very important for overall health. That's why today I'm sharing a detailed summary of the book, The Salt Fix (by Dr. James DiNicolantonio). Timestamps are below.
This summary will help you understand why much of what you've heard about salt may be wrong, where the salt restriction guidelines came from, why it's better and healthier to eat all the salt you crave (at least for most people), and some specific ideas about how to put this info in practice.
