What Happens in Your Body During a 24-Hour Fast?
*REMINDER: Perpetual undereating is NOT fasting.

We live in a world where food is always available—most of us eat over a 14-hour window every single day. But what happens if you give your body a full day off from digesting?

A 24-hour fast can act like a “deep repair” cycle for your cells, clearing out damaged parts, reducing inflammation, and boosting metabolism. Here’s the timeline ⏱️👇

🕓 4 Hours – Digestion winds down, insulin levels drop, and your body starts burning stored sugar for energy.

🕗 8 Hours – Blood sugar runs low, so your body taps into glycogen stores. You might start to feel the challenge here.

🕛 12 Hours – Mini-ketosis begins. Your body starts turning fat into fuel, often lowering appetite but sometimes causing fatigue.

🕓 17 Hours – Autophagy kicks in. This is your body’s recycling program—damaged cells, toxins, and even viruses get broken down and repurposed.

🕛 24 Hours – Deep repair mode. Fat is now your main fuel, inflammation decreases, and insulin sensitivity improves—helping your body reset at a cellular level.

💡 Autophagy = Cellular Housekeeping. Think of it as a spring cleaning for your body’s cells, helping prevent disease and slow aging. While it can start around 12–16 hours, fasting for 24+ hours can deepen its benefits.

⚠️ Not for everyone—fasting should be approached with care, especially if you have health conditions, are pregnant, or have blood sugar concerns. Always check with a healthcare provider first.

We can help you this! I love to teach people the difference between TIME RESTRICTED EATING, PERPETUAL UNDER EATING, and INTERMITTENT FASTING.

GIVE ME A REASON TO BE HERE! My finance team says I can not go! I want to hear this presentation to be able to help more kiddos! Let my finance department know I just need to attend MAPS twice a year!

🚨 New Diagnostic Breakthrough in Autism 🚨
What if you could identify a distinct microbial signature of autism—and use it to guide treatment?
At our upcoming talk, we’ll unveil the MDM System™, a novel urine-based diagnostic test that classifies non-genetic ASD with ~85% accuracy based on microbially-derived metabolites.
Why this matters to YOU as a physician:
🔬 Actionable diagnostics — Detect harmful metabolites that correlate with ASD severity
🧠 Mechanistic insights — Understand how microbial byproducts like p-cresol disrupt serotonin/dopamine pathways
🧪 Therapeutic potential — Use metabolite profiles to track response to microbiota transplant therapies
👶 New clinical phenotype — Introducing ASD-MDM, a precision medicine approach to autism
Join us in Phoenix this fall at the MAPS Conference to explore how this paradigm-shifting tool could revolutionize early diagnosis and personalized intervention for children with ASD.

🌟 DID YOU KNOW: Not all supplements are created equal?

There are poor, good, better, and BEST quality supplements on the market — and unfortunately, what we often find at grocery stores (yes, even at Costco) typically falls into the poor category.

At UDemand Health, we use and recommend only the highest quality products — and one of our top choices is the Quicksilver Scientific liposomal line. WE CARRY IT IN OUR OFFICE and this is what I personally use! I LOVE THIS BRAND.

💥 One standout? Let's talk Liposomal BPC-157 Peptide
This isn’t your average supplement. It’s a bioactive amino formula designed for regeneration and repair at the cellular level.

What is BPC-157?
It’s a 15-amino-acid peptide derived from the Body Protection Compound naturally found in the gut. In its liposomal form, it’s highly absorbable and doesn’t overload your detox systems — allowing for lower dosing with greater effectiveness.

Benefits of BPC-157:
✅ Supports healing of the gut lining (ideal for chronic GI conditions!)
✅ Aids in repair of tendons, ligaments, nerves, and blood vessels
✅ Helps reduce systemic inflammation
✅ Enhances neurological resilience and cellular protection

Who is it for?
Perfect for those:

Healing from injury or surgery

Struggling with chronic inflammation or oxidative stress

Seeking performance recovery (athletes!)

Managing GI conditions or autoimmune gut involvement

If you’ve been searching for a powerful healing tool that doesn’t just mask symptoms — but supports true repair — Liposomal BPC-157 might be the missing link.

🕷️ Nymph Tick Season is HERE — and they're tiny but mighty dangerous! (see image 👀)

DID YOU KNOW: Nymphs are more likely to transmit disease than the highly identifiable adult ticks? Why? Because they’re about the size of a poppy seed and often go completely unnoticed — giving pathogens like Lyme, Bartonella, Babesia, and more plenty of time to take hold.

🌿 If you're spending time outdoors, here are the Top 3 Ways to Protect Yourself:
1️⃣ Use a safe, effective tick repellent (oil of lemon eucalyptus)
2️⃣ Wear long, light-colored clothing to easily spot ticks
3️⃣ Do a full-body tick check (yes, everywhere!) when you come indoors — including scalp, behind knees, under arms, and waistline

⚠️ Chronic tick-borne infections are REAL! (Shout out to all my peeps fighting for their health!) They are strongly linked to conditions like MS, ALS, chronic fatigue syndrome, and autoimmune joint pain. Early prevention is your best defense.

👉 Stay aware. Stay protected. And always take symptoms seriously.
