Can Intermittent Fasting work with a Keto Diet?

Can Intermittent Fasting work with a Keto Diet?

Written by Zimmaron

Intermittent fasting is becoming very popular right now, but what is it and why does it matter?

The easiest way to describe Intermittent fasting it is that you basically eat all your meals, and snacks, with in a 6-8-hour window, and fast the rest of the time.

Water, coffee, and other non-caloric beverages are allowed during the fast, but no solid foods are permitted… and all conventional sodas are basically poison. Yes, I said it. Diets sodas (diet anything) are worse and far more dangerous to the human body than their sugary counterparts.

The idea is that while you’re fasting your body is naturally using its stores of energy, which helps burn fat, but also burns undigested proteins and foods that may need that additional help to focus on breaking that down in the body.

Other positive side-effects are that it helps the body release toxins and allows it to go into maintenance mode which it normally can’t do when it’s burdened down by digestion and processing the foods you eat all day, every day. I’m sure you wouldn’t mind a resting and recovering from a workout as well.

Intermittent fasting is popular because it focuses on when you eat rather than what you eat. In other words, you can eat whatever you want within a certain 6-8 hour window of time, you choose, and then take a break before eating your first meal the following day… 16 hours later.

Sounds awesome right?

Well, yes and no. Eating whatever you want, as much as you want, is not healthy. Yes, you give your body more time to recover, but you’re still eating all sorts of sugars and carbs which will still have a negative impact on your overall health and fat-burning efforts.

There is no doubt that you will feel better doing intermittent fasting. It really should be a mandatory practice. It is that good, that healthy, and boosts your immunity and ability to absorb the nutrients in the food you eat and making sure your body runs better.

By combining intermittent fasting with a ketogenic diet, you can turbo charge your results and make the transition to being completely Keto compliant easier as you start implementing the changes you need to make.

I recommend starting Intermittent fasting before you go Keto and getting used to it. Then gradually, start replacing certain foods step-by-step. This will make it easy for you to stick to your keto diet plan by feeling immediate results. It will also help your taste pallet adjust to minimizing cravings.

With cravings the rules are easy. If you are craving, then something is lacking. Usually the body interprets the need as sugar or carbs, but it is usually critical nutrients. So if you are craving, you are either going too fast and/or not eating healthy enough. Supplementation is a requirement for eating healthy today.

You should always get your bloodwork done regularly, and I recommend getting allergy tests, or your gut microbiome tested… so that you start learning more about what is good for YOU… as every person is different and reacts differently to foods. Who knows what you might discover about food intolerances.

Of course, intermittent fasting has its difficulties and may not be easy for everyone. Afterall, you are taking long breaks from eating anything at all. For some, moving through the hunger pains could be difficult.

That’s why I recommend you start intermittent fasting while on your regular diet first. This will allow your body to get used to the new fasting schedule first and then you can ease your way into eliminating carbs and sugars while increasing healthy fats to gradually balance everything out.

There is never a good reason to burden yourself unnecessarily. But being on a keto diet while doing intermittent fasting is a perfect combination that can super charge your results if done correctly.

Important Update

There is a lot of new research showing that the Ketogenic diet should be cycled with 2-days of high carbs / low-protein intake to keep the body truly healthy. Healthly carbs like white rice, sweet potatoes, or squash are ideal and needed by the body to function optimally.

Most of us have heard of Guardian Angels. However, we probably relate them to the stuff of fairy tales or religion. We maybe we remember being told stories about them as kids. What if you knew that you had your very own guardian angel assigned to you before you were born?

A guardian angel is like a sort of spiritual, divine life coach. It takes an active interest in your life and ensuring you navigate your experience on earth to the best of your ability.

Our guardian angels act as protectors and nurturers. They follow us as we go about our lives and making sure that we are on track and living our highest good. The angels are quietly intervening when necessary, fulfilling what they need to do to assist us.

Angels are not limited to one faith and anyone of any religion or spiritual belief. It can tune into the energy of the angels, should they wish to.

There have been many stories throughout the time of divine intervention, moments where at a crucial moment in their lives. People report the appearance of strangers, who magically seem to provide help. Leading them to safety and then promptly disappearing.

Might these be angels appearing to us briefly in our hour of need?

A key part of understanding angelic guidance is to connect with the angels and spirit guides that surround us purposefully. They are willing to support you; all you have to do is ask. We live in a world of free will, so you do have to make your desire for their support known.

Ways that you can use to open the channels of communication between you and your Angel.

1) Ask clearly

Our guardian angels are able to help us on our life paths in a number of ways, big and small. Anything from getting through a job interview to healing a childhood trauma. From finding your soul mate to surviving a difficult or dangerous situation.

The best way to begin your relationship with your angels is to ensure you are asking clearly for help. You can do this by meditating for a little while first, to clear your mind. Center your energy, then gently in your mind, ask for their help with a specific issue.

3) Request a Sign

4) Write a letter

5) Sleep

When you are asleep you let go of the control over your conscious mind. And are far more likely to receive intuitive messages and ideas from your guides. Ask your angels to come to you as you sleep.

When you wake up in the morning be sure to jot down any dreams, memories, words, anything at all that you recall. Be open to writing in a free flowing way. Regardless of whether or not it makes sense at the time.

6) Create a sacred space in your home

It can be helpful to create a sacred space in your home that is dedicated to your angels. You can collect crystals, stones, angel figures, flowers and candles and keep the space clean and tidy. You can burn candles and leave your messages there as a means of communicating.

Expressing your love and gratitude for their guidance in your life. Have a constant reminder of the presence of angels in your home through your sacred space. You will find it easier to keep in sync with their frequency and may find it easier to hear their messages.

7) Make personal requests

You might be surprised to learn that you can call upon your spirit guides for specific things. If you are in the middle of a creative artistic project, you could request the guidance of an angel who had been an artist themselves during their time on earth. If you are writing a book, call upon the essence and energy of those spirits who had been writers.

Think of the angels and spirit guides as a team of wonderful helpers. are devoted to helping where they can. Many of these guides have had lifetimes on earth and have their own gifts and wisdom to impart.

8) Meditation

Quieting your mind on a regular basis allows ample space for hunches to occur and your inner vision to sharpen. When you meditate often, you are bringing awareness and openness to your mind.

It will make it far more likely for you to receive guidance from the angels. As angelic beings are so pure and light, their energy vibrates at an extremely high level.

For us to be able to receive signs and guidance, we too need to elevate our energy. The best and fastest way is through meditation. But generally living a healthy lifestyle with plenty of rest, relaxation, fun and fresh air will drastically improve your energy also.

There are meditations that you can find online that are specifically tailored to helping you attune to your angel guides.

Learning how to interact with your angel guides is a wonderful thing, and through it you can feel more confident about your decisions in life.

When you know you have such a supportive, unconditional team cheering you on, even the hardest moments of life can seem manageable.
