The first is understanding what’s happening in your body. When fasting, you’re not starving your body. You are mimicking something that our bodies operate with naturally, which is not eating so frequently, so what’s happening is you’re activating specific genes that increase survival and not talking about just barely surviving, talking about thriving.
You are turning off genes that are diseased and turning off cancer genes. You turn off the bad stuff and turn on the good things you’re targeting, improving insulin sensitivity. You’re making insulin way more sensitive because insulin resistance is at the heart of why you are overweight in the first place and have a difficult time losing weight if you have too much insulin. By fasting, you’re fixing years of bad eating and eating way too many carbs.

Instead, control your food and focus on eggs, salmon, grass-fed hamburger, and big salads with leafy greens and cruciferous vegetables. The more nutrient-empty your foods are, the more of that food you have to eat to get healthy, so why not focus on nutrient-dense foods?
