How to Do a Bone Broth Fast

[@acdcbrody]

I’m in my 4th day of a 10 day water fast and I’ve decided to finish off my fast with bone broth

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Ok let’s go! You got this

[@AnnaAwesome77]

I’m totally doing this bone broth fast. Thanks for the great tips and guidance. I’m looking to detox and begin losing the weight I gained as a result of depression. Thanks beautiful women! Let’s see how this week goes! I have 5 days off from work, so it’s perfect for taking on this challenge! And I’m starting a new career! Wooo!

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Excited to hear about your results! You got this

[@fredthecoder1289]

Awesome video, thanks

[@champsofhappiness9748]

Today marks day 1 on my first bone broth fast. Thanks for the help ladies! Wish me luck!

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Whohoo you got this

[@markeisharobinson6437]

Awesome!! What benefits did you see?

[@MimiDidi121]

I did a bone broth fast for 3 days. I got terribly hungry. I'd have a small handful of nuts at night, because I have a hard time sleeping if I'm hungry. I didn't see any down side that I know of...I lost a ton of weight, but and this is a huge but!!! I lost my intense sugar cravings!

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Whohoo!!! Yes totally fine to do those nuts kinda like adding fats to the broth. 🙌

[@amysho2192]

I can't sleep at night if I'm hungry too!!!

[@bunnybubs9002]

Did you keep it off? How? What brand bone broth, how often , how much etc

[@2010RonnieB]

How many pounds did you lose? I am thinking of getting on a bone broth diet to lose at least 15 pounds.

[@EmergeAndSeeTherapeutics]

So how are you doing? We all want to know!

[@rolk9581]

I plan to make my broth in the pressure cooker to save time and I don't want to lose any weight so will fast for 36 hours. Thanks so much for the information and inspiration, I've been feeling like my system could use a break after so much indulging.

[@naturallynourishedRD]

You can do it!

[@abourg]

She talks about calorie deficient but when you do a bone broth it doesn’t matter it’s not calories in calories out because there’s no carbohydrates in the fast,. I’ve been doing bone broth fast and I never drink more than 2 to 3 cups a day sometimes 2 cups sometimes one cup even! It’s how my body feels I lesson to my body, if I feel hungry I drink more it’s simple has that. Even one cup a day is healing I would go to quarts shssss I be boiling bones 24/7

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Glad you've found something that works for you Gail!

[@mariadiaz9616]

I just finished a 9 day water fast. Now I will do a bone broth fast. Any recommendations on how many days? I was thinking another 10 days. I was at 199 now at 187. Goal 150-155. How often can I do the bone broth fast and for how long? I live your informative videos. Thank you

[@naturallynourishedRD]

That’s a long water fast! I’d be sure you are monitored by a medical team a bone broth fast is much more gentle and provides nutrients

[@AnasaRobin]

Did you complete the bone broth fast

[@EmergeAndSeeTherapeutics]

How are you doing now, Maria? Please let us know. All the best.

[@staceyelmer4320]

Thank you. I can't wait to begin this! My Naturopath has warned agains not eating breakfast due to cortisol spiking. Can you shed some light on this please, and would it be more appropriate for me to begin my fast at say 3pm so as to be able to have my first broth at 8am to blunt the cortisol spike. TIA

[@naturallynourishedRD]

I would recommend having breakfast of protein and veg to aid in cortisol regulation as over fasting can drive cortisol stress response

[@toniroberts8117]

I have Crohn’s disease and have an ostomy as my large intestines were removed. I was diagnosed with crohns about 25 years ago as a teenager but have had the ostomy for around 7 years now. I was recently hospitalized for a flare up and I’ve been home a couple weeks now on my own struggling to stay hydrated and keep my electrolytes up. My potassium, magnesium, and chloride levels are chronically low and take prescription pills for it, but I’ve really been liking bone broth to help as well. I actually need to salt my food heavily as I didn’t get sodium chloride as a prescription. My friends think it’s crazy I’m on a high sodium diet but it is what it is. Sometimes I get confused because they say bone broth is a big immune booster, but I’m also on immune suppressant medications (remicade infusions and immurane)…. Soo…. Is bone broth a good idea? I’m assuming it is but it’s also confusing lol. Anyways I’m really enjoying the various videos on your channel during this hard time. I’m not feeling well enough to make my own broth yet but hopefully will within a couple weeks. I’ve bought several store brand broths that are pretty good that I picked up at Natural Grocers. So far I like the “boneafide” brand. I like the frontier blend. Also I like the “Fire and Kettle” brand, the chicken and mushroom flavor. If I want a meal out of it I’ll add either diced baked tofu, or shredded chicken, sometimes I add a little brown rice (I buy precooked, rice cups you microwave for a minute), I like adding nori (dried roasted seaweed) and diced fresh parsley and chives. A squeeze of lemon or half a packet of that “true lemon” powder. Yum. I saw your recipes for broth and I’m dying to try the one with miso paste. 👍 Anyways, thanks again for the great content.

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Bone broth would be highly recommended and no not a concern with the immunosuppressants. We talk about the immune boosting benefits in terms of aiding in gut integrity which you definitely want support for!

[@MC-yp5rk]

Going to try this next week. I've been dealing with gastritis and reflux for 6 weeks now despite being on PPIs.

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Definitely check out our reflux video too!

[@alyssaxamelia]

Thank you for this information! Starting my fast today and this boosted my confidence knowing all the benefits it will provide.

[@naturallynourishedRD]

You're so welcome!

[@lauracroniger1651]

I’m trying a one day bb fast with only water and black coffee. 3-4 12 oz bb servings. It’s lunchtime so I’m having my 2nd bb with some herbs and Himalayan salt. If it gets rough I’ll try a bb latte with coconut oil frothed in. Trying to rest after my Thanksgiving indulgences.

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Awesome let me know how it goes and if you have any questions!

[@kellymckay5874]

Great info

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Thank you! Wishes of a successful fast

[@sirenagarrido3836]

I am taking bone broth daily no fasting I am unable to miss a meal in my whole life I eat healthy no junk food , gluten sugar and also drinking a lot of water with electrolytes

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Get it!

[@nopjack7278]

Great job ladies, very informative and well explained...thank u. You have convinced me to give it a go.

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Awesome! We hope it’s a positive experience 💪

[@jamessadowski6100]

Always a wealth of information!

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Thank YOU! Happy you enjoyed.

[@FONDBoneBroth]

This is such a great video, so informational!

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Awww thank you! Thanks for making it easy

[@coletteharte4242]

Great video. I have Covid 🙈 so started a Bone Broth fast today.

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Great call! Thanks for watching

[@nutritionalfoundations6884]

Such good info, ladies, as usual! I've been suffering from some weird digestive issues the last few months, and being an FNTP I've tried tons of options to correct it, including your Bacteria Rebuild program (which actually helped a ton). I do have lingering issues though, so I think I'm going to try a bone broth fast this week! I have tons of cartons of Kettle & Fire on my shelf that I can add delicious herbs and spices to. Thank you for sharing! You sent the motivation I needed to just bite the bullet and give this a shot :)

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Yay! Hope it helps push things into optimal

[@barbberg8833]

Great info but the one on the right looks like you’re directing traffic - a bit distracting

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Haha! Guess I’ll never make it as a politician.

[@heinzbucksandcastle2053]

OMG where did you get those beautiful chairs??

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Thank you! I honestly have no idea I let someone design my office

[@graceperrett4971]

Will it be any benefit to me to do a one day bone broth fast? I am struggling with skin issues and think I may have a messed up gut lining because I have lots of inflammation, but I don't think more than a day with no food is realistic for my lifestyle.

[@megarichhh]

Sameee my psoriasis is horrible right now. I know its my gut. My advice is to stay as busy as possible and keeping flavored water with you all the time

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Yes a bone broth fast or even a short term carnivore approach can be helpful for skin issues BUT for true long term resolution I would recommend you complete our 6 week Beat the Bloat Cleanse as we know skin issues are typically microbiome driven. During that cleanse you eat food the whole time!

[@jessicaflores2616]

I have about 10 lbs I want to lose so with this what would you suggest? How many days for the fast? TIA 😄

[@naturallynourishedRD]

3-5 days is great

[@jamellehorne4118]

Hi I’ve been doing intermittent fasting my weight has gotten stuck so is the bone broth fast good to do to give my metabolism a boost?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Yes! The nutrients in there can help boost fat burn

[@rmercedes971]

Can this be done for a longer term, like 30 days? For people that are looking to lose a lot of weight, like 50+ pounds

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Yes if you include a meal daily with protein and greens for sure!

[@rmercedes971]

@@naturallynourishedRD Thank You!! 😊 😊 😊

[@michellewebb1760]

I have a over acting thyroid need to lose weight any advice on the broth diet x

[@naturallynourishedRD]

It could be a really great choice as healing gut can support better thyroid function

[@ursulamedrano2483]

Took notes and I’m starting today! Thank you!

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Whohooo let me know how you do and what outcomes you get 💪

[@ursulamedrano2483]

I was going to get the beat the bloat bundle because my goal is 25 lbs of weight loss but should I start with the renew restore pack your mentioned?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

@@ursulamedrano2483 Have you failed the probiotic challenge? I’d do one(check out that video) to determine if Beat the Bloat is needed. Maybe start with 10-day detox and probiotic with challenge to assess microbiome better!

[@beemarethe-godsiper8127]

I heard you say in this video, not to have dairy products, is that correct? I thought high fat like cheddar cheese and ranch dressings were good with high protein diets? Also can I use honey in my tea? Lastly is this diet suitable for ppl with kidney conditions?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

We are talking about during the bone broth fast. I would not do honey during this time as you are aiming to reduce insulin demand. Consult your practitioner if you have a kidney condition but a bone broth fast typically contains 60-80g protein.

[@Kittyheavenwith21cats]

I no longer have a gall bladder so should I still do the detox pack..is there anything I should do different..looking to detox and maybe work on some weight loss

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Yes, you can do the detox packs. But also, I highly recommend taking our Digestaid which has enzymes that support digestion. Try taking it with each meal especially if it has fat which will help break it down. alimillerrd.com/products/digestaid

[@billybastar4022]

Great video, extremely informative. I am on blood pressure therapy meds. Will this diet and or the additional salt impact BP negativity?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Just monitor to be sure and you can adjust amount of salt in broth per needs

[@marlyngarcia620]

I’m looking to start the bone broth I was wondering if the store bought bone broth works well cause I’m looking to lose at least 30 pounds thanks

[@naturallynourishedRD]

well you gotta watch this one! Happy we already made you this resource. Good luck! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKC5imSwmbOji8U

[@arluvsista]

How often should you do the bone broth if you looking to lose more than 20lbs?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

You could do a Bone Broth fast 3 days a week every week if desired

[@yousraafouane632]

Can I do a bone broth fast to get into ketosis? Thanks

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Yes that can get you into ketosis within 24 hours

[@yousraafouane632]

@@naturallynourishedRD thank you for your response!

[@myway2653]

Do you add water to the pre made broth?

[@veronicaocon6391]

How do you feel about using an insta pot vs the slow cook method to make the bone broth?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

We talk about that in this video, enjoy! kzbin.info/www/bejne/opC4laF4gpmSfrc

[@FatsCaton]

I heard you say Y’all. Are u guys from Ky?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

ha no, just that Texas twang :)

[@autumnjmo]

Should I expect to gain back the weight I lose once I add solids back in?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Autumn, you may see weight come back up by a couple pounds of water but ideally during a fast like this you are seeing body composition shift with fat loss and muscle maintenance. I would consider transitioning from the bone broth fast into our keto program if weight loss is the goal.

[@markeisharobinson6437]

For weight loss and gut reset for a woman with PCOS/hormonal issues, could you do just veggies and grass fed meat meals 3x times a day with bone broth 4x times a day?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Sure if the meals are calorie restricted enough you will likely still see weight loss. Keep your eating within an 8-12 hour window.

[@therealfinnaspring8585]

These ladies have beautiful skin must be the bone broth

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Thank you

[@hharris9574]

Does broth break a fast? (no added fat) I thought/heard it doesn’t but I get conflicting information. (try to do intermittent fasting and am trying to figure it out)

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Anything with calories technically breaks a fast but there is a lot of benefit to adding in the broth and you can still see autophagy, fat loss etc. that you are looking for with fasting. Check out our video on types of fasting for more.

[@victoriaarcturus203]

The links for the broth recipes don’t work

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Hi Victoria! We had a website glitch yesterday but it's fixed now. Thanks for commenting and it is working now.

[@josephyachnik1562]

I have 1 day in so far and feel great!! WHAT do I eat when I break the fast?? Thanks

[@naturallynourishedRD]

That's awesome to hear! Whatever whole food you want. Personally a Ribeye! :)

[@omgee9802]

My goal is to lose weight so I plan to do intermittent fasting with modified bone broth fast. However, I have gallstones so I can’t really fast too long without stimulating my gallbladder. If I have bone broth outside my eating window, will that stimulate my gallbladder without breaking my fast?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

We have a great video on gallbladder heath it will help address your questions

[@melissaann2866]

Two questions. 1. Can you make a version for someone who is on the go working 12 hr days? 2. Will this give me diarrhea?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

Totally easiest is just sip broth. Not if you take Digestaid

[@naturallynourishedRD]

For question 2. We did a video on "troubleshooting your bone broth fast" and we answer this here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6esnZxqesqee5I

[@clouseaux]

Whatcha think about eating cucumbers during a BB fast ?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

I think it's great. Some times you need something to munch on

[@jenastclair607]

What if I am breastfeeding but my baby is 21 months. Does it still apply not to do the fast?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

If only doing comfort feeds like 1-2x/day this could be okay but be mindful of your body's feedback

[@jimcolegrove5442]

Is it okay to eat the cooked bones that can be chewed?

[@naturallynourishedRD]

I don't advise it

[@aylawolfram7750]

Could a bone broth fast do something to heal mucinous epithelial ovarian cancer? I’m also breastfeeding though and recently lost some weight that I really couldn’t afford to lose. I feel quite skinny right now but want to kill my over active cancer cells

[@naturallynourishedRD]

I would lead with the 10-day detox and you could incorporate the bone broth fast in the middle but would want to do 6 Tbsp fat at least to support maintenance

[@r.awilson7402]

Like#949 👍

[@phatgirlzpromotion]

i have acid reflux and my digestion gives me issues. so how many days do you drink the bone broth

Check out our video on heartburn and reflux! Bone broth fast may need to be supported with my Digestaid enzymes of dealing with reflux!
