I know you’ve likely already come across some kind of fasting.
Like intermittent fasting, right?
So, you’re likely wondering… what is “meta fasting”?
First off, the word “meta” means “beyond”.
And although meta fasting does involve some of the core elements behind intermittent fasting.
Meta fasting goes “beyond” just intermittent fasting.
In fact, it’s a superior and a more complete approach.
It’s the precise all-round approach that some of our ancestors adopted to live long, healthy and strong lives.
It’s the same approach Jeanne Calment took.
Let me explain.
So far, we’ve mentioned that attaining a metabolic reset is the first step on your weight loss journey.
As it starts aligning your body to work on your side, rather than against you.
But how exactly does that work?
You see, when your metabolism is broken.
All your metabolism really knows is to convert food into fat.
Essentially, with a broken metabolism your body is a “fat storer”.
So, if you’ve been trying one diet after the other… without seeing any consistent results.
It’s highly likely that your metabolism is broken.
So the first step is to fix your metabolism and turn your body from a “fat storer” to a “fat burner”.
And the only way to reset a broken metabolism and turn your body into a “fat burner” is through meta fasting.
But that is just the first step.
It doesn't stop there.
Because there’s a second component that plays a critical part in your weight loss endeavor.
Hormones.
More specifically, “hormone balance”.
And this is exactly what Jeanne Calment successfully managed to nail.
So, how can you balance your hormones?
In addition to fasting, we also need to tackle aspects such as: your diet, stress levels, exercise and sleep.
Because all of these elements can easily whack your hormones out of balance if handled incorrectly.
And without proper hormone balance, weight loss becomes much more difficult than it should be.
As you may notice, diet is only part of the overall equation.
It is not the entire equation.
So, the real solution to lose weight is not diet, it’s the overall system called meta fasting.
Which is a complete approach to achieve rapid and lifelong weight loss.
How?
By turning your metabolism into an effective “fat burner” through the power of fasting and hormone balance.
In fact, one of the great objectives of meta fasting is to slow down your “fat storing” hormones.
While speeding up your “fat burning” hormones.
And the food you eat does play a part in this process as well.
In fact, the foods you choose to eat signal to the body what hormones to release.
For instance, you may have heard of insulin.
That is a “fat storage” hormone.
Carbs raise insulin the most.
So, with meta fasting we’d want to limit our bodies releasing the insulin hormone too much.
And here’s a big one.
All those years of eating high-carb, low-fat “healthy” diets we were all told to eat?
Guess what?
Fat does not raise insulin!
So, this “diet” simply trained our metabolism to get used to running on sugar.
Instead of running on body fat (and hence, burning that body fat).
Of course, insulin is just one of the main hormones at play that we want to get under control.
And as you can see, having the knowledge of how your body really works - is what will help you achieve better weight loss results, faster.
Which leads us to an important question…
