What Can I Consume While Fasting? 🫠 (3 Things I Consume to Make Fasting Easier) #shorts
What can you have during the fasts? Certainly water. Lots of water. You can have salt, right?
So putting some salt on your tongue can actually be a great strategy. A lot of people feel a lot better doing that.
Just getting a few electrolytes in. You can do herbal teas and electrolyte mixes, possibly. Many of them are flavored with stevia, a good sweetener.
However, if you consume anything sweet during your fasting window, I know it triggers more cravings for me. I get an insulin release, and my blood sugar goes down. I have more cravings. I feel lightheaded.
I don't feel as energized or mentally clear, so I choose not to do that. And really, with fasting, one of the best benefits of it is it helps reset your dopamine receptors.
So anytime you're consuming sweet foods or hyper-palatable types of things, things that have a lot of flavors, it's stimulating all your dopamine receptors in your brain. So you're getting this considerable stimulation.
And that's a good thing. That's a beautiful thing. It's a way that we enjoy life however we want to be doing all day long. Otherwise, we dampen down our dopamine receptors, and we need more and more stimulus to get the same response.
So it's actually a lot better to go periods where we're not getting sweet. Lots of salty kind of garbage, potato chips, and things like that. Stimulate your palate so much.
