Thanks!

Life is to eat, sleep, do shit and die !!!   Lol

Really interesting post, thank you. I'm going to check out intermittent fasting.

very insightful Jeff, what's interesting is that mostly all religions talk of the same idea, fasting, even more they talk about fasting in terms of food and beverage, and in terms of talk fasting, not talking for like days or weeks, in Quran Allah talks about one of the prophets who was asking for a child while he is very old, Allah ordered him to stop talking for 3 days, Quran also mentions how Merry the mother of jesus fasted (talk fasting) when she gave birth to jesus, Buddha has his insights after both fastings, Osoi (the father of Reiki healing) also had his insights and talk fasting for 21 days.

so the idea of stopping the material incomes to the body and direct the antenna to the spiritual incomes bring huge benefits.

thanks for sharing the experience

Great! I'm glad for you. I am all for periodic fasting. It not only cleanses the body from toxins but it renews the mind and spirit. This is important for overall good health.

Venga ya, no hay nada como una buena chuleta o un buen pescado, eso si que está bueno.

Congratulations @jeffberwick!

Hey Jeff my name is Ariel Garcia I'm an upcoming rapper from Miami I'm using steem to get my music out there I would just really appreciate if you can check out some of my music on my profile if you like it I would appreciate that you repost one or two of my videos if your ok with that thank you 😎

I´ll give it a try...

Wow, congratulations on this healing journey!  I've seen "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead" and am convinced that diet has such major impact on one's well-being, immunity, skin, health... everything!  I also quit smoking and drinking a few years back and changed my diet and lifestyle.  I've been healthier than ever and was in the best shape of my life at the age of 28!  It takes a lot of discipline and will-power to break bad habits, but once they're broken and things get better, life just becomes a better place. Thanks for sharing!

Change of diet plus a good rest help p by tons.  Fasting not at all.

very good inspiring story Jeff, i have been looking into doing the exact same thing and you just pushed me over the edge into actually doing it!

I've heard our gut is linked to our brain and serotonin is produced there too. So cleaning out the gut will improve the head.

Great post Jeff. Thanks for sharing this. I've recently begun intermittent fasting after watching one of your videos a while back. I have also wrestled with depression so I'm looking forward to seeing if I get the same results.
I do feel much better even though I'm on more of a paleo style diet with grass fed beef and free range chicken and lots of free range eggs. 
I lost about 35 lbs in 5 weeks when I switched to paleo. Now looking forward to seeing what the fasting can add.
Thanks as always.

Eating less and keeping your body deprived of food is how are bodies function the most optimal. I use to always think the opposite until I tried Intermittent Fasting. I feel amazing when I'm fasted!

When you first mentioned this in your newsletter, (thanks for sending it to be for free every moth by the way, its much appeicated. I enjoy reading your views, even if you did make me and my brother lose $500 betting on the french election) I read that guys book and tried it straight away. Its pretty on point, but I have bullet proof coffee in the morning and a smoothie with ginger and garlic at lunch and then my main meal at night as close to 3h before bed as my wife can manage it. Works a treat. Best of ketone diet and vegan in one.

Thanks for sharing this knowledge.

I'm not a blood type diet believer, or believer in any diet perse (lifestyle, really) but I don't think there's one that works for everyone.  I was a vegetarian and vegan for about 13 years and experienced the exact opposite.  I ended up with vitamin deficiencies and found it hard to build muscle. 

That's not to discredit you - or those who a vegan lifestyle works for. We all have different genetic make ups and what works for one person, may have a detrimental impact on another person. 

That said, I naturally don't like meat or dairy very much (aside from yogurt, that's practically a staple for me lol) so I eat just 'enough' grass fed red meat every week - maybe 3-4 meals per week. That and avoiding canned and processed foods helps me a lot. 

Also - an amazing supplement called Sam-E. It's pricey - but has been a miracle for energy, depression, and pain. I have degenerative disc disease and nerve pain - and wow, nothing has ever helped (kratom did for a while, but that has it's own issues)  like Sam-E.

Very proud of you @jeffberwick.  My 10 y/o son watches some of your videos with me and he was very worried about your smoking.  When I told him you quit, he sighed with relief and said "oh good".

Wow! The gut has the most nerve endings (apart from the brain) good gut health I think equals good brain health! I love that all this stuff is emerging, hopefully more people will catch on!
