Show Notes and Resources

Books:

-The Complete Guide to Fasting by Dr. Jason Fung and Jimmy Moore -- this book is a MUST HAVE book for both beginning fasters and experienced fasters. I can't recommend it highly enough. It's an easy read with all the lists of what to do, what not to do, tips, and troubleshooting. I love it so much that I have the book and the audio - I recommend both! You can find both on Amazon.

-Beyond Fasting by Dr. Dan Pompa  This is a newer book on fasting by Dr. Pompa (one of my personal doctors) that goes into more depth when you are wanting to use fasting therapeutically for health concerns other than or in addition to diabetes and weight loss. You can find this book at Revelation Health

Study from the New England Journal of Medicine on Intermittent Fasting 

Tea and Coffee:

The best teas made especially for fasting and endorsed by Dr. Jason Fung: Pique Teas

At the very least MAKE CERTAIN you are using an ORGANIC tea as many teas are loaded with pesticides. This defeats the whole idea of cleansing from a fast.

Keto Kofi - This incredible coffee is organic, already has extra fat added to help you fast and includes a clinically proven blood sugar balance supporting ingredient. It is available through Wakaya.

Again, if you are using another type of coffee -- it MUST BE ORGANIC to avoid the heavy pesticide exposure. 

Nutritional Recommendations:

Never undertake any type of fasting without first at least addressing core health (with the full GT Core Pack) and adding products like the Mineral Garden (food cravings) or the Relax (feeling unable to relax and constipation) as needed. Please refer to the full episode for more information!
