Brawndo's got what plants crave. It's got electrolytes.
I've lost like 40 pounds with fasting and low carb. Lost fat; gained muscle, but despite that I will not tell people how I did it unless I trust them to not be fucking idiots because "fasing? but muh starvation mode" is repeated in the exact same way as "water? like from a toilet?"
I mean... it is. It was conceptualized specifically to preserve food supplies in times of famine. However, it worked so well it turned out to be incredibly beneficial under the right conditions. There's no shame in admitting what something really is. That doesn't make it inherently a bad thing. It takes a mentaley strong person to commit to it properly.
Your BMR does not drop when you fast at least not if you are active and have sufficient fat reserves. Starvation mode is mostly a myth.
You can thank decades of "finish your plate" and "children in Africa" for leaving millions of people in the West with a heavily skewed idea of what it means to be "full". We've also conditioned people to avoid satiating foods like meats and healthy fats.
