and we want to teach you how to metabolically switch in and out of these two states so welcome
hit the subscribe button hit the notification bell so that you get all the new information I
put out there and if you love what you're hearing send it out into the world fasting is our way out
of chronic disease you'll see why the more you watch these videos you'll see exactly why so

okay fast training week that's what we're in the middle of so five days out of every month we all
fast together this one we are practicing something called 16-8 fasting 16 hours of fasting eight
hours of eating so on this video it's really important that we talk about what you can eat
to speed up your metabolism and if you want to win a free box at LMNT during our fast
training weeks they give away five boxes a day this is our favorite mineral packet really cool
packet that you put in your water while you're fasting and it makes fasting a whole lot easier so
if you want to win it just put companion guide in the notes and or in your comments and my team will
send you a link so you can learn how to win okay here we go three foods keep it simple so the first
food ready that will speed up your metabolism is protein okay let me go into the nuance why protein
so when we look at what we call the macronutrients there are three macronutrients
there are carbohydrates there are fat and there's protein they each do something very different
to your blood sugar when you eat one of those macronutrients that shall not be named but it
begins with a C it when you eat that it spikes your blood sugar too high and as high as your
blood sugar goes up it goes crashing down whereas protein what protein does is it doesn't spike your
your blood sugar as high as the c word so it's like a dirty word now this I feel like in the
health movement so protein is a stabilizer of blood sugar when you eat a protein-rich meal
what's going to happen is that you're going to notice you're not going to want that next meal as
quickly how cool is that second thing that protein does is it's rich in amino acids now your cells
you've got 72 trillion cells in your body and each one of these cells is sensing nutrients coming in
and out of it and if you are low in amino acids it will trigger hunger so we don't want that cell to
sense that your amino acid levels are going down so protein is amazing it is the go-to it should be
the go-to for so many of you it will speed make it so that it's easier to go in and out of this
fat burner sugar burner it will speed up the metabolism and it'll kill hunger it's like the
greatest macronutrient out there speaking of good macronutrients the second one I want to talk about
the second food you should be eating to boost your metabolism and get your metabolism higher
is fat yes you need to eat fat to burn fat you've got to get good fat into your diet and let me tell
you why every time you eat fat you go up and you kill hunger so why is that important is because
if you're eating all day you're doing the six meals a day you're just eating randomly not
even thinking about it what can happen is that you can start to spike your hunger that sucks
so if we eat fat and we stabilize our blood sugar we're eating more fat we kill that hunger hormone
and your brain isn't constantly looking for the next food second thing about fat that's really
powerful is it just keeps your blood sugar stable so protein is going to really have this little
bloop like a little bit of a blurb in your blood sugar fat is like nothing like there's your body
barely registers that that blood sugar goes up so you kill the hunger hormone you feel amazing
and you are elongating that time period to the next meal okay last food probiotic
rich foods what yeah I know we're back at the sauerkrauts and the kimchi's the kefirs and if
you don't like those foods eat them anyways so so much of what we've talked about in this week this
fast training week about metabolism has been about our human cells but you're 10 times more bacteria
than you are actual human cells so this metabolic switching I keep talking about going in and out
it requires a healthy microbiome so we got to add in some probiotic rich foods the sauerkrauts
the kimchi the kefirs the kombuchas those kind of things are adding good bacteria into your gut so
that those bacteria can regulate your blood sugar now I'm going to tell you I spoke at a conference
this weekend on this exact topic and actually the talk is now in my academy so if you want
to come join me in my academy I have a whole set of videos in there on how to kill cravings
because cravings often are because of a microbiome imbalance so when we add probiotic rich foods back
in we feed those little gut bacteria and what ends up happening is we stop craving the harmful foods
so this is what I told a set of doctors this weekend which is it's funny how when we were in
college we would take a shot at tequila no problem to have an effect on our brain but then we grow up
and I'm you're watching a youtube video like this and I say hey you should have some sauerkraut and
you're like I don't really like sauerkraut I'm gonna tell you that eat it anyways I don't care I
want you to love the body that you're living in so if you have to muscle through a cup of sauerkraut
every day so that you can feed those bacteria get good bacteria in there to spike your blood
or spike your metabolism let's do it let's do what's right for the body so you can love living
in the body that you are walking around it so make sure you're getting your probiotic rich food
and if you love this information you guys I'm trying to make metabolism easy for you please let
me know if I'm hitting that goal I really believe that if we get everybody's metabolic
health under control we're going to end so much suffering we're going to spike everybody's immune
system we're all going to be happier healthier people so metabolism is key so go watch I did
a video a video that's called foods that make fasting easier because this is fast training week
we're compressing our eating window elongating our fasting window and I have other videos out there
showing you the way as always tell me your fasting story it's metabolism week tell me
your weight loss story tell me how many fast training weeks you've been doing this with me and
lastly please don't ever ever ever give up on yourself you were born in a miracle
if your metabolism's not working for you sit tight watch enough of these videos
and I will show you how to get it working in your favor as always I hope that helps
