What really happens when you fast for a full day #healthtips #fasting

[0:00]What happens if you don't eat anything for a full 24 hours? Your body goes through some wild changes. Let's break it down. Hours zero to four are cake. You just ate, so your body's still running on that food. Blood sugar is normal, energy is fine. You're not even thinking about food yet. Your body's burning glucose like usual. Hours four through 12, things get real. Around hours six to eight, you start feeling it. Your stomach's growling, you're thinking about food constantly. Maybe getting a little irritable. Your body's running low on glucose, so it starts tapping into your glycogen stores in your liver and muscles. Hours 12 to 16, the shift happens. This is where it gets interesting. Your glycogen is basically gone, so your body flips the switch to burning fat for energy. You enter ketosis. Your liver starts breaking down fat into ketones to fuel your brain. Hours 16 to 20. Your body's producing human growth hormone to protect your muscles. Inflammation is dropping and your cells are starts cleaning out damaged parts and recycling them. Hours 20 to 24, final hours. Your body's fully adapted. Fat burning is maxed out, mental clarity is peak, and your digestive system has had time to rest and repair. 24 hours, no food. Your body completely transforms how it runs.
