NICE, last night mixed up some salt in olive oil and almost felt guilty it tasted so good lol, heavy cream, although delicious, gives me stomach cramps, no idea why

Heavy cream does have some lactose in it. Are you lactose intolerant?

I don’t think so I’m fine with milk and other dairy but something about heavy cream I have a strange reaction to it feel kind of awful after having it although I love it

You could use whatever good oils you like including lard. Go for it!

#25

Probably will not work any better but if you find you can tolerate HWC what about whipping it into whipped cream

I’m so confused and maybe the answer is that the science isn’t there yet. Per Richard’s calculator I ate 300 calories of fat on day 3 and 4 of my 5 day fast. (It acutally told me to eat 400-500, but I hedged my bets.) But now people are telling me I shut off autophagy, which was the whole poit of the fast…

If it is autophagy you are after then salt and water it is. No science to show us if any thing else can be used. They do know protein stops autophagy right away. This thread might be helpful to you, several studies and videos are linked in it.
