Fasting Q&A: Ending an Extended Fast, OMAD, Keto and Low-Carb, and More

Episode #005

In this Fasting Q&A episode, Megan and Nadia answer your fasting questions:

1. When should you end an extended fast? [00:30]

2. I am starting a 30:16 cycle and hope to move onto a 3x42. I have about 10 pounds more to lose. I feel very satisfied with one meal a day and 800 calories, but I am concerned that I might damage my metabolism if I go very long on OMAD (one meal a day). Is that something that is OK or should I make sure I get more calories 3 or 4 days a week? [09:08]

3. When doing one-meal-a-day, how much should you eat and/or how long should you eat? [17:50]

4. When it is said, “Intermittent fasting is not about diet,” why are we told to do keto or low-carbohydrate diets? [24:56]
