In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, we dive deep into the science of fasting and what happens inside your body during a 36-hour fast. From lowering insulin and tapping into fat-burning mode, to activating autophagy (cellular cleanup) and boosting brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), this fasting timeline unlocks powerful metabolic benefits. We explore: ✅ The first 14 hours: Lower insulin, burn glycogen, and experience energy diversion. ✅ 16-hour mark: Autophagy kicks in, clearing out damaged cells and enhancing fat burning. ✅ 24-hour mark: Digestive system reset with an intestinal stem cell reboot. ✅ 30-hour mark: BDNF production surges, improving brain function and mental clarity. ✅ 36-hour mark: Significant fat loss, increased ketone production, and a metabolic reset. Ben answers common fasting questions, including muscle loss concerns, what to drink, exercise during fasting, and the best way to break a 36-hour fast.

🔥 "This is going to shock you, but these so-called 'healthy' fat loss foods are the WORST for your metabolism. When you consume them, it puts the brakes on fat burning.  And guess what? These 5 “health foods” are in most foods you're eating—silently sabotaging your fat loss and even feeding cancer! "If you want to live longer, feel younger, and keep visceral fat off, I’ve broken down this video into three critical lessons: 1️⃣ What these hidden ingredient are that the food industry doesn’t want you to know 2️⃣ How to spot this dangerous ingredient in foods labeled ‘healthy’ 3️⃣ How to break free from the addiction to this ingredient and avoid it so you can burn fat and stay disease-free" 💡 Trust me, by the end of this episode you’ll never look at 'health foods' the same way again! 1. "Heart-Healthy" Vegetable Oils (Seed Oils) 🛑 ✅ Better Choices: Cook with grass-fed butter, tallow, avocado oil, or extra virgin olive oil for real metabolic support! 2. Fat-Free & Low-Fat Dairy 🥛🚫 🔥 Fun Fact: Your brain is made of 60% fat—so why would we avoid healthy fats? ✅ Better Choices: Stick to full-fat, grass-fed dairy for its natural nutrients and metabolic benefits. 3. "Healthy" Whole Grain Breads 🍞 🔬 Why it’s bad: Whole wheat still spikes blood sugar almost as fast as white bread, leading to fat storage and insulin resistance​. Many brands add high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS)—a sugar that literally poisons your mitochondria and accelerates fat gain​. Plus, many store-bought breads contain glyphosate (a weed killer) residue, which is linked to metabolic dysfunction​. ✅ Better Choices: If you’re going to eat bread, choose sourdough or einkorn wheat—they’re easier on your blood sugar. 4. Plant-Based Meat Alternatives 🌱🍔 ✅ Better Choices: Opt for grass-fed beef, pasture-raised chicken, wild-caught fish, or real, whole plant foods like mushrooms and legumes. 5. Fruit Juices & Smoothies 🥤 (Yes, Even "Natural" Ones!) ✅ Better Choices: Eat whole fruits or blend your smoothies with fiber, protein, and healthy fats to slow sugar absorption.

Did you know that poor sleep can stall fat loss—no matter how perfect your diet and workouts are? Why Sleep is the Master Switch for Metabolism: sleep is more important than diet and exercise when it comes to metabolic health. Think of your metabolism as a symphony—sleep is the conductor. Without it, everything falls apart. 4 Ways Poor Sleep Wrecks Your Fat-Burning Ability 1️⃣ Increases Blood Sugar & Insulin Resistance After just one week of poor sleep, blood sugar levels mimic prediabetes. Hunger hormones (ghrelin & leptin) go out of whack, leading to overeating. 2️⃣ Slows Down Metabolism Poor sleep lowers resting metabolic rate (RMR) and reduces fat-burning capacity. It also elevates cortisol, increasing fat storage, especially belly fat. 3️⃣ Toxic Buildup in the Brain The glymphatic system clears toxins during deep sleep. Without it? Buildup of beta-amyloid (linked to Alzheimer’s). Poor sleep is associated with brain fog, mood disorders, and accelerated aging. 4️⃣ Circadian Rhythm Mismatch = Shortened Lifespan Night shift work & erratic sleep increase the risk of metabolic diseases and even cancer. The WHO classifies night shift work as a probable carcinogen. 🔹 7-Day Sleep Optimization Plan for Fat Loss 📅 Day 1: Fix Your Sleep Schedule Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day (even on weekends!). Sleep between 10 PM - 2 AM for maximum fat-burning benefits (the "Money Time Sleep Window"). 🌞 Day 2: Get Morning & Evening Sunlight Morning sunlight lowers cortisol and regulates your body clock. Evening light (sunset or dim lights) signals melatonin production. 📵 Day 3: Cut Off Blue Light at Night No screens 90 minutes before bed—use blue light blocking glasses if needed. Reduce artificial light and avoid bright overhead lights at night. 🥗 Day 4: Stop Eating at Least 3 Hours Before Bed Eating late raises body temperature and insulin, blocking deep sleep. If you must snack, prioritize protein & fat instead of carbs. 🌡 Day 5: Keep Your Bedroom Cool (60-68°F) Lower body temperature = deeper sleep. Use a cooling mattress pad or sleep with less clothing if necessary. 💆 Day 6: Use Magnesium & Relaxation Hacks Magnesium glycinate before bed can calm the nervous system. Try meditation, breathwork, or binaural beats for relaxation. 🚫 Day 7: No Caffeine After 2 PM Caffeine has a half-life of 5-6 hours—cut it off early for better sleep. If you need a pick-me-up, opt for herbal teas or decaf options. Bonus: Sleep Tracking & Biohacking Use a sleep tracker (Oura Ring, WHOOP) to monitor deep sleep & HRV. Experiment with red light therapy before bed for melatonin production. Try BrainTap or inHarmony meditation cushion to enhance relaxation.   🎁 📚 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.
