Episode notes
Day Three Is The Metabolic Pivot
- Day three is the metabolic pivot from burning food to burning dangerous visceral fat.
- Most people quit before this shift, so reaching day three is crucial.
Use The 14–18 Hour Window
- Wait ~14 hours to complete digestion and divert energy to healing.
- Expect autophagy to begin around 18 hours into the fast.
24-Hour Hormone And Brain Boost
- At 24 hours fasting your body spikes HGH and BDNF naturally.
- These hormones support fat burning, muscle preservation, and sharper focus.
