What Eating One Meal A Day (OMAD) Does To Your Body (Science Explained) | Dr. Ken D. Berry

Описание: In this powerful 28-minute lecture, Dr. Ken D. Berry explains the real science behind eating One Meal A Day (OMAD) and why it may be one of the most misunderstood metabolic strategies of our time.

Is OMAD starvation — or is it biological restoration?

Dr. Berry breaks down what actually happens inside your body when you stop eating multiple times a day and compress your meals into one powerful, nutrient-dense window. From insulin regulation and fat burning to autophagy, mitochondrial repair, ketone production, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), this lecture walks you step-by-step through the hormonal cascade that changes everything.

You’ll learn:

• Why constant eating keeps fat locked away
• How insulin controls access to stored energy
• The difference between ketosis and starvation
• How autophagy repairs damaged cells
• Why OMAD improves mental clarity and focus
• Who should NOT do OMAD
• How to transition safely and intelligently

This isn’t about calorie counting.
This is about restoring metabolic rhythm.

If you struggle with insulin resistance, inflammation, brain fog, constant hunger, or stubborn weight gain, this lecture may completely change how you view fasting.
