#fasting #extendedfasting #drfung #MCToil #breakingafast | MY PLACE

So its been a couple of months of extending my fast beyond the 42 hours, which was the goal I initially set for this month and last.

Surprisingly to myself its not been as hard as I thought it would be, and extended fasting really does get easier with more fasting believe it or not.

One of the habits I have decided to do incorporate into my ” break-fast” is to add in MCT oil into my black coffee as the first “food” item going back into my body to assist & promote extended ketone production in my liver, or so Ive read.

From my research on how to end a fast (primarily when I do a 5day fast) I found that there was a significant amount of “health” promoters who suggest adding in MCT Oil for reasons such as:

“BENEFITS OF MCT OIL WHILE INTERMITTENT FASTING…

Prolonged Satiety- may help extend fasting period
Increased Weight Loss
Increased Energy Expenditure
Enhanced Longevity
Improved Blood Sugar
Enhanced Brain Function

Though more research needs to be done on the effects of combining the use of MCT oil while intermittent fasting, there seems to be a lot of potential benefits with any use of MCT oil.: As per

Once I have established a true measure of establishing if my ketones or weight loss is increased with the MCT, I will update. What I can say for now it that the product is very edible, great on salads and my brain tells me “yeh, this is easy “. :).
