I felt so good after the 5-day Prolon experience I decided to change my schedule. I "water fasted" for two more days. Don't do this at home. I'll share why. First of all, "water fast" is in quotes. Here's why. I do usually have a bulletproof coffee in the AM. It includes 1/2 teaspoon of coconut oil and 1/2 teaspoon of ghee. That would technically make these days a "fat fast," not water fast. Overall, everything continues to go well. But there was one problem. I woke up well-rested again this morning. (If you can sleep well during a fast, you'll probably do great!) But upon awakening, my blood sugar read 45. I confirmed it on my Freestyle fingerstick device. I felt fine, though. I didn't operate machinery. And I only went downstairs. I had my bulletproof coffee and sat talking with Janice until my sugar returned to the 60s. In this video, we talk about hypoglycemic episodes, what causes them, why they can be dangerous, and how to manage them.
