Dr. Mindy here and on this video, I'm going to show you the
three foods that will speed up your metabolism. So if you are
new to my channel, welcome, I am a woman on a mission to teach a
million people this year how to fast. I think you will see in
this channel I have over 600 videos showing you the art of
fasting. Strangely, this is a food video, but I want to talk
about on this video why what you eat is as important as what you
fat, how long you fast, 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 I'm really
excited you're here and I love those of you that share these
videos, I really appreciate you. 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 Eight 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 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 fits, 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 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 is 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, this 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 blurb
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 long gating that time period to the next meal.
Okay, last food third fig probiotic rich foods what? Yeah,
I know we're back at the sauerkraut and the chem cheese
that Kiefer's. And if you don't like those foods, eat them
anyways. So so much of what we've talked about in this week
of 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
sauerkraut, the Kim cheese, the Kiefer's the Kombucha is those
kinds 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 the talk is now in my academy.
So if you want to come join me and my academy, I have a whole
kit 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 of 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, Yeah, I don't really like sauerkraut, I'm
going to 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 sugar 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 fed. And if you love this information, you guys
i I'm trying to make metabolism easy for you please let me know
if I'm 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. Its 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 metabolisms 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
