In this video, Dr. Berg talks about bulletproof coffee and autophagy. Autophagy is a state when you are in fasting mode and the body starts repairing and recycling the damaged proteins and microbes in the body and also the need for vitamins and nutrients go way down.
Things that Stop Autophagy:
• Glucose
• Protein
• Cortisol
• Eating
*Fat has the last effect on insulin.
To get into autophagy really depends on several things:
1. Amount of calories
2. Health State (the worst your health is, the more strict that you need to be with these things).
3. Exercise
4. How long you been fasting
5. Insulin
GIP - a hormone factor that is located in the small intestine that gets triggered when you eat so it amplifies the effect of insulin.

Now..... if only you could learn to be more humble......... JUST KIDDING - Fantastic............. and you have learned that we eat, not because we are hungry, but based on a time schedule, and out of boredom, etc. I was slender already, and only ate whole foods - NO junk food, and was VEGAN / seafood eater, but tried the KETO diet starting in March 2021, just because of the way it is portrayed by Dr Berg, and Dr Ekberg here on KZbin. I found out, that I feel better, have more energy, and my mental acuity is better. WIN WIN. Now instead of A HEAVY CARB diet;,,,,,,,, I'm eating fats: lots of fats. ORGANIC fats, of course. I also go about 20/4 per-day........ or at least 18/6 each day.

[@JohnThunder]

When I think of BP Coffee one thing comes to mind 'Somatostatin' (growth hormone-inhibiting hormone). Fat has 9 calories/gram and if you do BP coffee your body tends to pass into a fed state, partially breaking a fast and inhibiting Growth Hormone leading to a decreased autophagy state. I view BP Coffee as a tool for people getting used to fasting and getting that extra energy when you break your fast with it. I used it when I first started fasting to get used to the feeling of not eating then a few months down the line removed it in favor of plain black coffee.

[@motchanasacla8873]

Thats a good idea..i have coffee with a tea spoon of mct oil, half tea spoon of pure virgin coconut oil, and half ang half maybe 2 table spoon..for the intermittent fasting and a 36 hr fasting..i do it 3x a day just to get by...but now i will try my best to take out my coconut oil and almond milk..just a tea spoon of mct oil in it to kick me still

Dr. Berg, I started swimming at the beginning of this warm season as a form of routine exercise. Your statement at the end of this video about combining sun, fasting, and exercise, made me realize that I have almost all of the right ingredients for autophagy and a healthy body. I'm a 37 year old female looking to increase my focus on a better diet and for the last 3 to 4 years have been experimenting with extended fasting and IF protocols. I actually didn't even know that I was intermittent fasting at first. I was just in the habit of eating once a day... And this was before I really began to focus so much of my effort on having a healthier lifestyle. When I finally made that decision, I was already ahead of the curve. Our 8 year boy was diagnosed with brain cancer 2 years ago. It completely derailed my health efforts, and surely increased my cortisol levels. ( I know that now, thanks to watching your content and lessons) I have been trying to convince my girlfriend, the mother of our 8 year old boy, to put him on a strict and clean keto diet. By the way, he was diagnosed with Ewing Sarcoma, and he is "free and clear" of it for now. But I'm terrified that if his diet doesn't change, his health could easily regress. My question to you, since we already know that a clean, and nutritional ketogenic diet would be best for him, is, should we also have this 8 year old boy do any fasting? Thank you, so much, for creating these helpful and incredibly informative videos!

Telum-X your story really touched me. What a traumatic experience for your family. How is your son doing now? I immediately looked up children and fasting but 'they' seem to advise against it.

On the 7th day i stood up and took a few steps and Bingo. Ill of my pain was gone, any stiffness and inflammation was gone and my mind was much clearer considering i have the privilege of having a bad dose of ADD. When i walked my knees were so free that my knees kept rising to my hip level and it took until the third day to learn how to walk normal again. All was fine till about the 8-10 day mark and I reverted back to my old self about a week later. No health professional i have talked to since has any idea as to what happened during this brief time. Also, i was 95% + at the time doing the vegetarian thing as in no dead meat/eggs. I just did the same fast recently, although I am not a vegetarian and blew it on day seven with little results.

Honestly, I have no clue if I am being consistent because testing my ketones every morning was becoming compulsive; and much prefer to be moderate my thinking in all areas. So I stopped the morning sticks it was getting depressing No ketone burning and now only use my measuring tape and step on the grocery store scale on shopping day once every week. Also, I found that I used to drink a whole pot of coffee (by myself to get going) and now I drink only 3 cups in the Am and 1 cup after Lunch (still a lot). I put into cups 1 & 2 just 1 tsp butter, a pinch of salt and 1/2 & 1/2 in each; and #3 cup of the Am gets Coconut oil, salt and 1/2 & 1/2 and My after lunch cup gets 1 tsp of butter etc that way I am staying on just about 2 Tbls of butter/oil and wow do I have energy and get so much more done. I have lost about 6 pounds and a couple of inches and feel great since adding and stopped using sweetener in my coffee. Coffee needs salt and the taste is so delicious.

Dr Breg’s videos are simply amazing. Learnt many thing from his videos, now I have a doubt, I have my bulletproof coffee with Ghee (clarified butter) I am wondering if that’s a good idea, as worried if that stops the autophagy

[@JohnyRelax]

So,can we drink coffee or not?

Hey Dr.Berg, since I am not a coffee drinker at all I have been using the real "Hershey cocoa powder" with no sugar and have been using a little "yellow pea protein powder" with "half and half" or "CoffeeMate" instead of using sugar. is that alright to use for breakfast?

i always learn something new watching your videos ! !

Hii, for those who tried fasting for 72hrs did you take your electrolyte and sea salt? I have dr berg’s electrolyte and nutritional yeast tablet I was wondering if taking those will put me out of autophagy. Thanks!

[@jasonfanclub4267]

Mr Berg please make a video about the best source of supplement for each Vitamine or mineral

Hey what about juicing? Lets say i do a bundle of sellery and mix it with parsley. Nothing else. Will it block autophagy? Thanks.

[@viktor8119]

Thank you for the information! I would like to get the benefit of longer fast, like 36-48 hours because of injury, or just like overall heal cause of HGH and autophagy but I have very low body fat. End of the 48 hours I always feel so weak (even I consume salt, potassium, vit B and MG). I will try it with some MCT or coconut oil coffee.

I tend to go into low blood sugar during intermediate fasting. Since not eating sugars and carbs, it drops down from 75-88. Is that normal?

[@InquiringMindsKnow]

Hi Dr Berg - long time subscriber here. I am wondering if you can do a video on helping shrink tumors. My mother has a meningioma brain tumor and this has me looking for help. Also, hoping you can consider a video on the ingredients in heavy cream and what brands are safe. Just realized some horrible stuff in my heavy cream and the new stuff I tried does not turn coffee lighter - is that normal?

[@keepitreal5148]

I've been fasting 23hrs daily and lifting weights and eat I at 25th hr. For 1 week I feel great!!!

[@latinman9791]

Having difficulty understanding what you're talking about not sure what apathagy is and what does it have to do with coffee

[@bhargavA12]

Hi what about black coffee brewed with a French press,people now say it definitely has a significant amount of calories due to oil from the coffee bean?

[@mloan110]

I have itchy feet and just placed an order on Amazon for Gallbladder Formula. I was diagnosed of diabetic with A1c7.5. I have been controlling my diets with low carbs, no sugar. and no medication. My glucose is now ranging from 87-105 in the morning. I expect my A1c would be lower for next doctor visit. Can I take this supplement?

[@alisonl5127]

Anyone have any advice on how to quit coffee with HWC in the morning?

[@rishidhingra319]

Hey Dr. Berg, thanks for the video and amazing content as usual. Question regarding "when" autophagy starts - can it really start as early as 17-18hrs of fasting?

[@JohnSmith-pd4mf]

Thank you. Sun + Exercise + Fasting. Sounds like the life of a pre-agricultural age human. Nature knows best!

[@Kitiwake]

I use green tea instead of coffee

[@penyarol83]

100%. They really knew how to live, & we’ve completely forgotten it. They were (some still are) peaceful, playful & egalitarian. It really is astounding how much better lives they had than we have, and how little we realize this. See the Psychology Today article “How Hunter Gatherers Maintained Their Egalitarian Ways.”

[@gabepearl5661]

42 year old male good shape, I cheated with the coffee and MCT oil for a while, I felt better and maintained lower blood sugars when I gave it up. I also started dropping around 2lbs per week.

[@loriegreen8840]

How about a 1 TB heavy cream during intermittent fasting for weight loss &/or autophagy?

[@rudybaldovino9528]

Dr Eric berg thanks for your helps I feel great!

[@MsDestinedtoReign]

Hi Doc, would really appreciate some sun here but we’re heading into Winter🇦🇺 and besides when we had some sun idiot blocked it out with rotten Chemtrails so we were completely covered, (Strontium, Chromium Metalic chaff Barium) just for starters and god knows what else 😱 Would kill for sunshine and some warmth. 🌤 Even up North QLD,NT, it’s shocking weather, thanks for your teaching and informative videos. I have learned so much from you Doc, you’re a sweet💓

[@COLOFIDUTI]

in the exercise departament i like to cycle between high intensity (usually strengh training or sprints) medium intensity ( some jogging, bodyweight exercises) and low intensity ( long walks).Sure you can mix and match 2 or more intensities in the same day but n the beggining people with with low conditioning tend to overdo.Just follow you recovery and you will do good

[@broberts6828]

Hey Dr berg! I was wondering if Olive oil breaks a fast and blocks autophagy? You are the man!
