The good news? I discovered a natural 6-step protocol that helped me firm up my skin—and it’s helped thousands of others too. Skin cells regenerate every 30 days, so if you follow these steps, you can see noticeable results in just one month. 🧬 6-Step Protocol Highlights: Boost Autophagy with Fasting Trigger your body’s skin-renewal process with these fasting schedules: Daily 18:6 fas Weekly 24-hour fast Monthly 48-hour fast Autophagy clears out damaged skin cells, similar to cleaning expired food from your fridge. Build Lean Muscle Mass Compound movements like squats, push-ups, burpees, and sprints help tone skin and trigger autophagy. Bonus: they boost growth hormone and insulin sensitivity. Ditch Inflammatory Oils Cut out seed oils (canola, soybean, corn, etc.) and swap them with skin-loving fats like butter, ghee, coconut oil, olive oil, and tallow. 🔗 Download the free seed oil card: http://www.seedoilcard.com Control Glucose, Insulin & Cortisol Keep carbs under 100g (or 50g for faster results) Lower cortisol with “Vitamin G” (Gratitude!) Gratitude boosts oxytocin, which counters cortisol and helps your skin glow. Cut Out Alcohol Avoid wine and beer—loaded with estrogenic toxins and pesticides. Clean wine option: http://www.ketokampwine.com  Use binders or glutathione to mitigate occasional drinking. Red Light Therapy (Photobiomodulation) Use a red light panel or lamp 10 minutes, twice a day, from 10 inches away. This increases collagen and improves elasticity. 🔗 Recommended red light devices listed in the episode notes. 🧪 Testing Autophagy Progress: Use glucose/ketone monitoring with Keto Mojo: 🔗 http://www.ketokampmachine.com  You're likely in autophagy when glucose drops and ketones rise—especially after 16+ hours of fasting or post-exercise soreness. 📚 Free Resource: 🔥 Download the Burn Fat Meal Plan to reduce glucose, insulin, and inflammation: http://www.burnfatbook.com

Today, I am blessed to have Josh Dech here with me. He has a deep understanding of the gut-brain connection. He is an ex-paramedic, and Holistic Nutritionist, specializing in gut health. It was the successes his clients have had with complex digestive diseases, previously thought to be impossible, that got him connected to some of the world’s most renowned doctors. Since then, he’s been recruited to the Priority Health Academy as a medical lecturer, helping educate doctors on the holistic approach to gut health, and complex digestive issues. Gut health is known to be connected to mental health, emotions, sleep, productivity, concentration, hormones, inflammation, sickness, detoxification, cravings, relationships and more. An unhealthy gut can severely impact our lives. In this episode, Josh dives into various aspects of gut health, emphasizing its ancestral connection and modern threats. He discusses how our gut microbiome, inherited from birth and influenced by environmental factors, faces challenges from the standard American diet and agricultural practices. Josh warns against the consequences of disrupting the microbiome, linking it to the rise of modern diseases.   Plus, we touch on plant-based medicine, and Josh advocates for its potential benefits over pharmaceuticals. He underscores the influence of financial interests on healthcare choices. Finally, Josh sheds light on the critical role of stomach acid in digestion and health, dispelling common misconceptions about acid reflux and advocating for a holistic approach to digestive issues. Throughout this episode, Josh emphasizes identifying and addressing root causes rather than treating symptoms.  🎁📚  Purchase Ben's new book Metabolic Freedom today to receive immediate access to a FREE course on metabolism with exclusive interviews from Gary Brecka, Dr Daniel Pompa, Dr Jason Fung, Megan Ramos, Cynthia Thurlow & more.

In this video, we're breaking down the benefits hour by hour at critical milestones—14, 16, 24, 30, 36, 48, and 72 hours—so you can understand the science of fasting and how it helps you burn fat, boost brain health, and reset your metabolism. Now, let’s jump into the timeline! ⏳ 14 Hours: Fat Storage Hormone (Insulin) Drops 📉 At 14 hours, your insulin levels start dropping, which is huge for fat loss. 🚀 Insulin is your fat-storage hormone—when it's high, you store fat instead of burning it. 🔥 After 14 hours of fasting, insulin begins to fall, and your body starts using up its stored glycogen (sugar) reserves for energy. Wallet analogy vs bank account  What you’ll notice: ✅ Feeling lighter 💨 ✅ Mental clarity kicks in 🧠✨ ✅ First signs of fat burning 🔥 ⏳ 16 Hours: Cellular Cleanup (Autophagy) 🧹 At 16 hours, your body activates autophagy—its self-cleaning mode. Think of it like a little Pac-Man 🟡 going through your body, eating up damaged cells, toxins, and cellular junk. This process: ✔️ Removes weak, inefficient cells ✔️ Prevents diseases like cancer & Alzheimer's ✔️ Repairs mitochondria for more energy ⚡ Garage analogy with a bunch of junk.  💡 Autophagy is the ultimate anti-aging hack! ⏳ 24 Hours: Digestive Reset + Growth Hormone Skyrockets 🚀 By 24 hours, two MAJOR things happen: 🔄 1️⃣ Digestive System Gets a Break! Your body stops using energy for digestion and instead focuses on: ✅ Healing the gut lining (great for leaky gut & bloating!) ✅ Reducing inflammation in the intestines ✅ Producing intestinal stem cells for gut repair 🌱 If you struggle with acid reflux, bloating, or digestive issues, this is a game-changer! ⚡ 2️⃣ Human Growth Hormone (HGH) SURGES! 💥 By the 24-hour mark, studies show a huge increase in HGH: ✔️ Up to 2,000% in men ✔️ Up to 1,300% in women ⏳ 30 Hours: Brain Supercharge (BDNF) ⚡ Here’s where things get next level… 🚀 At 30 hours, your brain starts pumping out BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor)—basically miracle-grow for your brain. 🎯 What happens? ✔️ Brain fog disappears ☁️➡️☀️ ✔️ Memory, focus & learning improve 📚 ✔️ Feels like a spiritual reset ✨ No wonder fasting is a key practice in almost every major religion! ⏳ 36 Hours: FAT-BURNING GOES FULL BLAST 🔥 At 36 hours, you enter deep fat-burning mode. Here’s why: 🔻 Insulin is at rock-bottom levels 🔥 Body fat gets mobilized for fuel 🩸 Your liver converts fat into ketones, which fuel the brain & body Links and Resources: 🎁📚 Purchase Ben's new book Metabolic Freedom today to receive immediate access to a FREE course on metabolism with exclusive interviews from Gary Brecka, Dr Daniel Pompa, Dr Jason Fung, Megan Ramos, Cynthia Thurlow & more.
