Question 1- 1:02
What are some of the best sources of potassium? I know the recommended amount is about 4700 mg. Where can I get this?
Question 2- 6:36
What drinks are acceptable for me to have during my fasting window? Can I have black coffee with creamer?
Question 3- 10:09
Can you do intermittent fasting if you are a type 2 diabetic?
Question 4- 13:47
I am on a lifetime diet because of an issue that I have with my liver. I would love to know a little more about how fasting helps you burn fat.
Question 5- 15:41
Will having sugar furing my window hurt my weight loss? I have 40 more pounds to lose, and I don't want to mess up how far I've already come.
Question 6- 17:40
I have been doing intermittent fasting for about 6 months and I have recently become pregnant! I asked my doctor and he said it was safe if I continuted to do IF. Sometimes I feel extra nauseous when I am fasting. Do you have any tips for the Nausea?
Question 7- 19:50
I don't always eat dairy and gluten, but I definitely feel terrible when I do. Since I've been doing IF, I've been able to eat dairy and gluten and it hasn't bothered me as much. Does this have to do with IF?

Question 1 - 0:21
Does chewing gum break your fast? I know it’s a small thing - but I chew a lot of gum!!! Would that spike an insulin response? What are your thoughts?
Question 2 - 3:52
I need some recommendations for getting in shape, I haven’t seen the results I want yet!
Question 3 - 7:14
Will drinking a pre-workout drink break my fast? Workout at 5am and first meal at 12, with an 8 hour window until 8. Also, what about BCAA after workout?
Question 4 – 8:00
Hi Chantel and Chris, I LOVE your podcast and wanted to get you to weigh in on the great debate of sodium. I have read a lot about the Ketogenic diet and it talks a lot about making sure you get enough salt. But I have also heard that if you are a woman trying to lose weight, Sodium is your number one enemy! Which is true? Does sodium make me gain weight, or do I need it? Does sodium make me gain weight?
Question 5- 14:15
I have been fasting in an 8 hour window for a little over a month now, and have been working out REALLY hard with a new trainer. Since I started, I have gained about 5 pounds. My friends tell me I have probably gained all muscle weight, that muscle weighs more than fat, etc.. But 6 lbs is a lot! Is it possible to gain six pounds of muscle in a month, or do you think I am doing something wrong in my eating window…maybe I am eating too much?
Question 6 – 18:15
I tend to open my eating window around 2pm and I am RAVAGED! Like Chantel says in her book, I am hamster hungry. I try to eat something relatively healthy, but as soon as I eat, I feel a HUGE drop in my energy! It’s annoying because I feel so energetic in the morning and then lose that energy when I eat. Is this normal? Should I be eating something different?
Question 7 – 23:34
My knee has been KILLING me lately…. It’s super painful and swollen.I have been working out harder than usual trying to get ready for the summer and I am wondering if I should stop workout out and give the knee some rest? Also, will fasting have any positive or negative affects on my knee?
Question 8 – 25:15
I loved your podcast with April! I have been looking into CBD oil for quite some time now and it definitely gave me the push to order some, I can’t wait to get started! I was wondering if it will break my fast, or if I can take it in the morning while I am in the fasted state?

2:34 Is there a wrong way to do intermittent fasting for women? I have felt very moody in a bad way…
5:29 I have a 6-hour eating window, but sometimes I’m not as hungry for my second meal. Should I eat a smaller meal to avoid being hungry later, or should I go without the second meal?
9:46 You’ve said it’s good to beak your fast on something with high protein, maybe lower in sugar…So should I save the cake I want to eat for later?
14:45 I have been doing Intermittent fasting for five months and I was losing weight steadily, but now I’ve hit a plateau. Any tips on breaking through it?
24:13 I just started intermittent fasting. When I opened my eating window and ate what I normally would, I was still really hungry. Why?
26:45 Should I track my meals and instead of my hours?
35:42 - Are there any alternatives to drinking coffee and drinking tea to help hold me over during my fast? I don’t like either of these without sugar!

1:00 I read that a person needs about 4700 mg daily for good health. What do you recommend we do to avoid potassium deficiencies?
4:16 I’ve never been diagnosed officially, but I am pretty sure that I have low blood sugar. I am worried that if I fast, my blood sugar will drop!

18:00 Love wine, but I do not want to drink sugar, and I also do not like dry or red wines! I would love to TRY the clean wine you spoke about! If you love ice cream, what brand do you suggest "tasting" OR do you have an ice cream recipe?
20:17 In Chantel’s book, she talks negatively about fad diets. But isn’t Intermittent Fasting a fad diet? I’ve only ever heard of it recently.
22:16 I have heard people say that Intermittent Fasting will cause me to lose muscle mass- If I am not feeding my body, will it start feeding off my muscles?
