297 Mike Mutzel: The Truth About Fasting

The body tries to maintain balance but if you're eating all of these carbs because you're feeling all of this stress, that's an emotional connection to food and you're mitigating your stress via emotional eating. I've done that too, I'm totally guilty of that and I get it but fasting makes us brutally honest with our emotional connection to food. - Mike Mutzel

The Growth Edge Of Intermittent Fasting

"Before you had all of these safety nets like Paleo gluten-free chips that you could just grab and eat whenever you were stressed without the guilt but now that you're fasting, you have to deal with that stress. When you begin intermittent fasting, you'll feel uncomfortable, awkward, and nervous but you have to figure out why you're feeling that way and what you're going to do to resolve, address, and heal it. That's where growth can take place with your intermittent fasting practice."- Mike Mutzel

A Fasting Plan As Unique As You

"There's a lot of confusion out there when it comes to creating your own fasting plan because first of all, everyone is so different. From a young athlete who wants to start a family to someone older, close to retirement, and as had a couple of kids, both of their approaches to fasting are completely unique. So, we have to consider the context but also the person's goals and their background. Someone who has been eating healthy their whole life will have a very different approach and set of goals compared to someone who has been eating fast food for several years and now needs to be a bit more extreme with their health." - Mike Mutzel

Achieving Ketosis Through Fasting

"When we start to fast, that's a natural way to get into ketosis. So, maybe the diets for keto and fasting are different but you can have success with intermittent fasting or prolonged fasting and not be on the ketogenic diet. It's a lot easier to have success with fasting or intermittent fasting if you are on a low-carb diet anyway because it lends itself to producing ketones."  - Mike Mutzel
