 What's going on guys? I'm welcoming a special guest today. I'm sure many of you know who he is. This is Tyrone Magnus. This is actually his first time on my channel, but I've been on his a few times about like five, six years ago to me at this point. But we've known each other for 12? Since 2012. I guess you could say since 2012. Yeah. Yeah, so since the world was supposed to end, right? Yeah. We met at IMTA. Yeah, rough it in. Peter. So I wanted to bring Tyrone on here today and show you guys a side of him that you may not know about. Well, he does talk a little bit about, you know, his water fasting and his juice fasting on his channel, which obviously if you guys don't know, I'll drop it in the description below. But so that's the first topic I want to cover. We're going to cover five, six, seven, who knows how many topics today because we've got a notepad full. Yeah. Yeah. I've got my notepad here and we've already been sitting around talking for two hours. So I just turned the camera on. So I kind of wanted to get into like your fasting journey. Like what made you start doing it? Did you start off with juice fasting, water fasting, that kind of thing? I started with water fasting. And the reason why it was one of those stepping stones, you know, I stumbled upon it was about being as healthy as possible. Okay. Okay. Now if any of you know who Kevin Trudeau is, Kevin Trudeau wrote the book Natural Cures, they don't want you to know about. Oh, I'll have to check out one out. And he was banned from writing books after he wrote that book. Interesting. But he's in prison now from what I understand. I don't know if it's trumped up charges or if it's legit. However, that book changed my life. I mean, I really credit him with saving my life. Do they still tell about you? Yeah, you can still get it. You can get it on audio also. And I just got into cleansing and everything. A lot of the different things that spoke to me, I got into and I decided to start fasting and I bought a book called The Miracle of Fasting by Paul Bragg. I've heard of that. I haven't read it though. From what I understand, it was a number one seller for years in Russia, actually. Interesting. Yeah. Yeah. From what I was saying, they're actually pretty lean people over there. They're not dealing with fat problem. Yeah, a lot of cultures that are very healthy do fast. And Paul Bragg actually sells the, his company sells the Bragg's apple cider vinegar. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah, I have some of that. He was also one of the mentors for Jack LaLaine, the juice man. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I read the book and I started fasting and really opened my eyes back then. I mean, I was, I was lifting weights and I was in good shape, but I was shredded within a week. I was shredded. I thought faster. I read faster. My breathing was, you know, open and clear, like everything. It just, it was great. So let me ask you like, so I do some fasting, but I've never done more than, I don't even think I've reached three days, but I've never tried to. Like, I feel like it would probably like not be that difficult. I get a lot of feedback from people saying how unhealthy it is, right? Because it's not something that's normalized in our culture. But it sounds like you did anything negative come from your fasting. Yeah. If you have not been fasting all your life, like certain cultures do, and in the past, I mean, think about it, we were feast or famine anyway, different cultures. You found food when you found food, your body is built to fast. And when you do fast, the body will preserve muscle because what if you have to run, you have to fight, you have to protect yourself. You have over, you need to hunt or something. The body knows, the body knows, preserve muscle. Yes, you will lose a certain amount if you go too long, but that's when you start to get into starvation and everything. But some people also have torn up muscle in the body just from working out for a lot of years and never fasting or never really cleaning out. And your body will actually get rid of tore up muscle. Interesting. So it needs to be shed. But I got dry skin from it. I got dry skin for I would say a couple of months. Oh, wow. It was bad. It's interesting though, because you're consuming, I assume a lot of water like during that time. So the fact that that would still happen is interesting. Now, it was my first fast. I went in a gung-ho cave man. A guy bet me that I couldn't do it. And that's why I did. That's what got me to do a full week. He was like, you can't do that. Just that. That's what it was a week. And we bet $1,000 that I couldn't do it. And he never paid me. He was broke. So I got the good help. So if you're watching this, you still owe him. Yes. He's your way into it. I got dry skin. I was constipated also. I don't know what the problem was. Well, that's interesting because you're not consuming anything. So yeah. But once I was fasting for several months off and on doing a few days here and there, then you really move like clockwork. You know, it's like once a day. It's about being graphic. It's like, uh, what's the dexon? Valdez oil spills kind of get you, your body puts stuff out every day and you wouldn't believe it's coming out of you in where it's coming from. What black hole in your body is it coming from? But I'm telling you it's, I'm, I'm so happy I found it because fasting eats tumors. It dissolves tumors, viruses, fungus, scar tissue. We start to heal all the, I mean it does so much. And how often would you say that you're doing these longer fasts, water fasts specifically? Um, I don't do, I haven't done a water fast in a little while because with juice fasting, I can go a lot longer and it's a lot easier. I get to drink something that tastes good. Yeah. And so you said, so with water fasting, you're literally not consuming anything but water. Right. But with juice fasting, you're doing juices and the do say beef broth when we were talking before? Um, I would tell you that also if you're going to water fast, make sure you're taking magnesium and salt. Yeah. Pass them to a lot of people do that. That'll make sure that you are getting certain trace minerals and everything. But when I do the juice fast, yes, I do bone broth and I do lemon ginger blast. A lot of you, if you're into all that you've heard of it, it works. You put the pepper in it too, right? That that mixture? Yeah. Yeah. I don't put pepper in mine anymore, but if I do find them, sometimes I will cut a little bit and put it in there. Yes. And coffee. I'll drink coffee. Coffee really helps. Black or do anything in it? Yeah. Do you ever add any like stevia or anything like that in? I don't like stevia. Fair enough. Sometimes because it's so little, I'll put a little bit of coconut sugar in there. Okay. But you have to remember, if I'm one of the juice fasting anyway, there's a little bit of carbs. Yeah, there's a little bit of carbs going in there depending on what you're drinking. So when you're like in the middle, I guess we can move on to the juice fast, like what's your energy level like? Does it change throughout or how does that work? Back and forth. Back and forth. Someday you'll feel like you're dying, but some days you'll feel exhilarated, like nothing else. For any of you that are in a relationship, you'll be able to rise and fall. I mean, it could be like a psycho, but then it'll come to, you know, postpartum depression moment where you don't want anything and you don't want to tell anybody. So yeah. I noticed my sensitivity to things enhanced. Like what? Like you're hearing and smell and that kind of thing? Yeah, smell, taste, touch. Interesting. I wonder why that is. I guess it's, you're clearing out a lot of the toxins that you can feel more clear. Maybe. Maybe the body's just recalibrating and shedding off things, you know, old cells, stuff like that. Yeah, because you go into autophagy in both types of fast. And autophagy, you know, you just, it means self-eat. Your body just is recycling and it's eating scar tissue and everything else. Well, and I feel like the issue with it is that like when people hear things like that, they think it's like a negative thing. And it's just like, yeah, it's put it this way. Fasting shouldn't be hard, but it is because we're so full of toxins now and addicted to food. Yeah. And, and I, when I think I was reading Paul Bragg's book, he spoke about a guy who's breath. He said, it's almost knocked him over. He said, because he was so toxic. And he said, when, oh yeah, your breath will, you know, so yes, you fasting breath when you don't eat. Yes, you will get that, but it will go away. Do you use gum or mints or anything like that? No. Because it makes you hungry. But he said the guy, when he started to fast him, his urine burned coming out. He was so toxic. Oh. So sometimes people have to, you have to ease yourself into fasting. Try a day. Try intermittent fasting. Yeah, that's what I always suggest. Like doing some intermittent fasting and then going into maybe a 24 hours and then maybe 36 and kind of bumping it up. Yeah. Some people have, you know, they have passed away, but from what I understand, the people that have from fasting, they were going to these fasting resorts and camps where they would fast, but go on like hikes. Oh boy. In the sun. Definitely consult your doctor before you fast. Do you kind of, obviously you're big with like working out and stuff. Do you continue working out the same when you're fasting? No, but you kind of can when you do fasting. You can have a really nice juice that's big and, you know, and go and run off of that. But there's a book by, I think it's named, Brad Pilon. It's called Eat, Stop, Eat. And when I was water fasting, I would go in and do five sets of five of what I was going to do. Okay. So it was chestnut, five sets of five and maybe five sets of five for flies and I would be out. That's it. So you're working out for like 20 minutes. Yep. Keep it stimulated so the body knows to keep as much of it as possible and just move on. And I was fine. I looked incredible back then. I'm on my way back. I'm on my way back. I'm on my way back. I was, I just finished the fast a month long juice fast. I've been eating for a couple of weeks and I'm about to go back into another month of juicing, but I was 241. Okay. Now I'm 210. So, wow. That's, that's crazy. And would you say like overall you feel a lot better after you're done the fast or how do you transition from fasting back into eating? Eat a small amount. Yeah. Because if you try to eat, you know, too much, I would feel nauseous sometimes or like the food was too heavy because I don't think food tastes so much better. Yeah. Trust me. If you do it really and then you can taste the toxins and other like I had high seafood punch one time after a fast and it was like, Oh God, like it tasted like a bunch of chemicals. But normally I loved it. I imagine when you get so used to like eating clean and like eating, like it's hard to like get into it, I think because we're so used to eating all these like sugary, fatty, like high carb things. Then when you're like eating really healthy, going back to that is actually like pretty gross. But then it becomes pretty easy to get back into eating unhealthy too. Yeah, it can. It's, it's, you know, the foods are addicting and addictive additives are put in foods to keep you coming back. So it's like your drug addict. And there's one company I read about said that in their board meetings, they would speak about customers as heavy users. Like they were drug addicts. Yeah. Like if you went to their restaurant more than twice a week, you were a heavy user. You're using their freaking food. It's terrible. Now with the fasting. So this is the stuff where I get into the next few videos of Tyrone that you guys may not know about, but it's more his like spiritual side. So I want to know, does the fasting increase or deepen your spirituality when you're in or after a fast? I feel as though it deepens it. But if you're not religious, because when I first started fasting, I wasn't religious or very spiritual at all. I understood while fasting why spiritual people fasted. Interesting. Yeah. It, there's a, there's a level of sin that is your mind when you go on a long fast and when you're focused I get it. You're able to connect with that higher power a lot easier and feel at peace. That's why so many monks and stuff like that, they fast and they meditate and all that. I get it. I totally get it. Your energy is different than everything. Interesting. Do you feel like you connect with yourself or others differently when you're in a fast or after? When a fast is going well, I'm calmer. I know that I'm calmer, but I'm more at peace. But see, I don't run into people like Sarah too much that understand the energy and are seeking what I'm seeking. So usually I'm the only one at peace. So I don't connect with anyone. Maybe if I was fasting right now and I was visiting, I would maybe feel different. Like her energy feels really good right now, but I might feel something different if I were fasting right now. That makes sense. I wonder if it's just because like you are clearing out all of those toxins so that like you're working it into it. You're like souls can connect on like a deeper, like more spiritual level. Yeah. You know.
