* Note: many (especially with health complications) need a slower start using healthy fasting SNACKS
during the EASY Intermittent Fasting window. Example fasting window snacks: avacado, coconut products, cheese/butter, egg/yogurt/kefir and more. Also see Ben Azadi on Keto Flex Days
where you stay adapted to medium healthy carb intake. Also see 99% People Lose Weight Faster With This Insulin Trick: Lower Your Cortisol & Insulin STRESS Naturally.
Note: If on synthetic thyroid meds or statins, please see our Thyroid healing and Statin pages and take a slower approach to incorporate more healing time. Those with health complications should also take a slower approach.
Ditch the foods that cause inflammation and weight gain and replace them with healthier anti-inflammatory, fat-burning foods. This may shock you, but a lot of these so-called 'healthy' foods that you are probably eating are actually the very reason you are stuck.

How does copper deficiency lead to weight GAIN?...the natural metabolism of the cell is being altered by [bio-available] copper deficiency. And by default, leptin, the other really important hormone for fat metabolism, [the saity hormone feeling satisfied] is altered.

So what are healthy fats? See the books below by Enig/Fallon, Bruce Fife and William Davis.
Fat is Good For You from ...one of the foremost authorities in the world on dietary fats and oils...
Bruce Fife, N.D.
All of the experts below recommend a No Wheat (and often no grains) approach to weight loss.

Used copies are only $2 -$10. The safest and most effective weight loss supplement is provided by nature! How do coconut oil-milk-chips help and why do so many modern diet plans not work?
...Recent studies show that eliminating fat is not an effective dietary strategy. The low-fat foods you eat instead are nearly always high-carb foods, which trigger the release of insulin, causing your body to store fat. What's more, carb consumption can cause blood sugar surges and drops. As a result, you lack sustained energy levels and instead experience hunger...

...Our Eat Fat, Lose Fat program will put you back on the track that nature intended for efficient nourishment. Let go of the notion that you must suffer to lose weight... Nutritional satisfaction signals your body that food is abundant, so it releases fat stores. This is the key to weight loss....on this diet, you'll be taking in good fats and over time releasing bad ones from your system....we've heard from hundreds of people who not only lost lots of weight but also healed a wide range of health problems... Along with other healthy fats, coconut oil is key to this diet...

Modern diets focus almost exclusively on calorie restriction. Eat Fat, Lose Fat is a comprehensive diet plan based on: a.) nutrient richness, b.) satiation, c.) metabolic support.
Why are modern diets so frustrating?
...modern diets depend on some degree of calorie restriction, with different proportions of macronutrients. The original Atkins diet is the best, both for achieving weight loss and for satisfying your body's nutritional requirements. But like the others, the Atkins diet can lead to cravings, vitamin A depletion, and calcium deficiency (if you don't eat cheese)...
As a result, all of them can lead to lowered metabolism, either through the body's feast-or-famine reaction, or through vitamin A depletion that undermines your thyroid function, or both. And once you head in that direction, no matter how severe your calorie restriction, you won't lose weight.

...take advantage of the metabolism-boosting powers of coconut oil along with the thyroid-supporting powers of cod-liver oil....

...This plan is based on the way healthy people eat in countless traditional societies....

Coconut oil naturally raises the metabolism by supporting thyroid function- you'll just naturally burn more calories. Easy on the budget. No med addictions. No med side-effects.
Satiation is key. Calorie reduction diets lead to cravings, nutritional deficiency and boomerang weight-loss and weight-gain. Eat Fat, Lose Fat focuses on satiation as a key weight loss strategy.
...When you consistently use coconut oil (along with other healthy fats), you provide vital nourishment...that supports optimal function of your nerves, brain, hormones, immune system, and metabolism...When you eat coconut...your body actually produces a hormone in the stomach and small intestine that signals that you've eaten enough. When you feel satiated, cravings, and the persistent hunger you experience on most diets are banished....you won't even want to overeat empty calories...

What makes coconut oil special? ...The main medium chain fatty acid (MCFA) in coconut oil is lauric acid, a proven antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal agent that is also found in mother's milk. Converted in your body to a substance called monolaurin, it helps you defend against viruses, bacteria and other pathogens and strengthens your immune system... Coconut is synergistic with essential fatty acids...Your body needs saturated fats [coconut] to most effectively retain and use essential fatty acids...(both omega-3 and omega-6).

Worried about cholesterol?
...contrary to what you've heard, cholesterol is not the cause of heart disease, but rather a potent antioxidant weapon against free radicals in the blood.
Naturally produced in the body and naturally present in the foods we eat, it's a repair substance that actually helps heal arterial damage.
However, oxidized cholesterol in heat and additive processed dairy is a problem. ...heat and oxygen can damage cholesterol just as they do fats....oxidized cholesterol can injure arterial walls and lead to a pathological plaque build up...
That's why we recommend that you avoid foods that contain damaged cholesterol, such as powdered eggs and powdered milk (which manufacturers add to reduced-fat milk, yogurt, and other dairy products to give them body - without stating this fact on the label). Ironically,
when you choose reduced-fat milks in order to avoid heart disease, you consume the very form of cholesterol that can cause heart disease....

Ideally, adding coconut oil to your diet should be part of lifestyle and diet changes that eliminate pollutants (artificial and processed foods, junk foods, processed sugar, etc.) Read the following excellent info from Weston A Price.org below:
