Dangers of 36-hour fasting revealed in shocking simulation

Many people struggle to lose weight and achieve their ideal appearance, but the truth is, it’s rarely easy or straightforward. In fact, weight loss requires time, patience, and persistence.

In order to reach their goal, people try different diets, use various shakes and pills, and go to even greater lengths — often at the expense of their health and overall well-being.

Most recently, intermittent fasting has been promoted as a healthy way of losing and maintaining weight, with a number of celebrities and athletes swearing by it.

In fact, intermittent fasting has been around for centuries before becoming a global trend.

This method doesn’t focus on the food you consume, but the timing of your meals.

If done correctly, intermittent fasting can help stabilize blood sugar and boost how your body responds to insulin.

However, it is not for everyone.

Recently, a popular YouTube channel shared a 55-second-long video that shows what happens with the body during a 36-hour-fast.

During the first four hours of not consuming any food, the body stars burning fat, which certainly leads to weight loss, but what happens next is rather shocking.

Just like with any restrictive diet, intermittent fasting can have side effects.

According to The Emily Program, some of the side effects — that don’t apply to everyone — are excessive hunger, headaches, dizziness, digestive issues, mood changes, bad breath, sleep disturbances, dehydration, excessive urination, and nutrient deficiencies and malnutrition among the rest.

The benefits, however, are impressive.

After eight hours of not consuming any food, the blood sugar levels drop. The body then starts using stored glycogen for energy.

After twelve hours, the body runs out of glucose and begins to break down fat stored in the liver, producing fatty acids known as ketones, a process known as “metabolic switching.” This is the reason why weight loss starts to take place.

Sixteen hours without food triggers the process of autophagy, your body’s process of reusing old and damaged cell parts.

According to the YouTube video, after twenty-four hours of fasting, the body goes in a full fat-burning mode. Inflammation is reduced and insulin sensitivity is improved.

Thirty hours into fasting is when the “deep cleaning” begins, and after thirty-six hours, the body reaches maximum autophagy during which body regenerates tissues and boosts your metabolism.

Trump’s niece warns he’ll want to be ‘president for life’ if re-elected

By
Monica Pop
-

Donald Trump’s niece, Marry Trump — the daughter of his late brother Frank who died of heart-attack in 1981 — has been a vocal critic of her uncle.

In 2020, she published the all-tell book Too Much and Never Enough in which she wrote about Donald and the Trump family.

Among the rest, she wrote in the book that the president is “utterly incapable of leading this country and it’s dangerous to allow him to do so.”

Trump’s niece dubbed his return to Office for the second time “uniquely dangerous times.”

During a recent interview with The Telegraph Marry expressed her fears of her uncle aiming to remain president for life. She believes he would intend to do so in case he’s given the opportunity to run for the third time, which is currently not allowed based on the Constitution.

Regardless of what the law states, Trump recently claimed there was a “loophole” that he could use.

So far, Donald Trump has opened up about the idea of a third term a number of times, but not many believed he was serious – unless not until recently, when he clearly hinted there are ways for him to continue his presidency beyond 2028.

“A lot of people want me to do it. But, I mean, I basically tell them we have a long way to go, you know, it’s very early in the administration,” he explained. “I’m focused on the current.

“I like working. I’m not joking. But I’m not – it is far too early to think about it,” he said, adding “there are methods which you could do it.”

Speaking of this possibility, Marry Trump said of her uncle that “It’s not about whether or not he’ll run. It’s about whether or not he’ll leave. It’s more likely that he’ll just say, ‘I’m president for life and I’m not going anywhere’. And he’ll challenge people to get rid of him.

“What enforcement mechanism is there to drag the guy who just lost the election but is in the Oval Office? How do you get rid of him? We don’t know, because we’ve never had this problem. I think he’s willing to challenge that.”

She added: “America is a deeply broken country and it has been for a long time. Donald is not an anomaly. He is, I think, the logical conclusion to the last 40 years of Republican degradation.”

She has also criticized the Democrats for failing to prepare better for the elections.

“The Democrats continue to not just fail to meet the moment, they fail to understand the moment… And one of my biggest criticisms of the Biden administration is that they didn’t see a second Trump term coming and they failed to prepare adequately.” she said.

“Part of it was complacency, part of it was just a failure of understanding where people in this country were. Part of it was honestly just failing to recognise what was happening globally.

“Incumbents in every single country, regardless of political affiliation, were losing by massive margins.”

Barack Obama’s name surfaced during Sean “Diddy” Combs’ federal trial when the singer’s former personal assistant David James testified that A-list guests at the rapper’s infamous parties took various drugs, including “pills in the shape of the former president’s face.” 

According to James — who recalled being told his job was to please the mogul when he was hired by a Bad Boy Entertainment executive — Diddy used narcotics excessively throughout the day. He travelled with a bag full of drugs, including “some advil, tylenol.”

“He had water pills to help him lose weight, viagra, pills that helped increase his sperm count,” James said of his former boss. Further, he added Diddy would take Percocets during the day and ecstasy at night.

As he went on to explain how he was frequently told to arrange the “freak off” s*xual performance sessions, James broke down in tears.

He also said that he had taken ecstasy once during a party when Diddy filmed him blackmailed him.

As witnesses take the stand, several celebrities have been dragged into the trial, including singer Usher.

According to the testimony of Dawn Richards — a former member of girl group Danity Kane that was signed to Diddy’s Bad Boy Records label and a close friend of Diddy’s ex Cassie Ventura — Usher was present at a restaurant when Diddy assaulted Cassie by hitting her in the stomach, the Daily Mail reported.

Rapper Ne-Yo and Interscope Records co-founder Jimmy Iovine were also present, according to Richards.

However, while many witnessed the assault, no one did anything to defend Cassie.

He then asked Cassie to leave the place. On the way out, he grabbed her “by the neck and popped her, slapped her in the mouth.”

This wasn’t the first time Richards witnessed the disgraced rapper punching, choking, and slapping his girlfriend in the mouth.

During the trial, she recalled Diddy assaulting Cassie with a skillet of eggs in 2009. He then warned her she could go missing.

Diddy is on trial for s*x trafficking, racketeering, and transportation to engage in prostitution charges. He pleaded not guilty.

Boxer Georgia O’Connor, 25, said doctors ‘gaslit’ her on cancer concerns for months before tragic death

By

British professional boxer Georgia O’Connor died of cancer aged 25. She was a decorated Team GB, winning the Commonwealth Youth gold in 2017.

O’Connor was a five times National and Commonwealth Champion, as well as a two-time World and European Medalist.

She went pro in 2021, going 3-0.

Her last fight as a professional took place in October 2022, outpointing Joyce Van Ee on an all-female card at London’s O2 Arena.

Boxer Georgia O’Connor shared her cancer diagnosis on January 31 and died just four months later, on May 22.

Days before her passing, she married her boyfriend, Adriano, whom she called her hero.

Posting a photo of her ring, O’Connor wrote, “The day I married the love of my life.”

In a social media post, O’Connor blasted the UK’s publicly funded healthcare system.

“For 17 weeks since the start of October, I’ve been in constant pain, going back and forth between Durham and Newcastle RVI A&E knowing deep down something was seriously wrong,” O’Connor wrote. “I said from the start I felt it was cancer. I KNEW the risks. I have colitis and PSC, two diseases that dramatically increase the chances of getting it. I KNOW how high my risk is and they do too. They always did.”

In the same post, she accused doctors of not taking her condition seriously and failing to diagnose her because they refused to run tests.

“Not one doctor did the scans or blood tests I begged for whilst crying on the floor in agony. Instead, they dismissed me. They gaslit me, told me it was nothing, made me feel like I was overreacting,” she wrote. “They refused to scan me. They refused to investigate. They REFUSED to listen.”

The young boxer shared that not only her cancer spread, but doctors also found potentially fatal blood clots in her lungs.

“And now? Now the cancer has spread. And if that wasn’t enough, throughout this whole time there’s been BLOOD CLOTS all over my lungs. That ALONE could have killed me instantly.”

She condemned the National Health Service of being a “broken system.”

“They could have done something before it got to this stage. But they didn’t. Because this is the state of the NHS – a broken system that fails young people like me over and over again.

“A system that makes people suffer, that sends them home in agony, that lets cancer spread whilst the thick, stupid, mindless ‘doctors’ shrug their shoulders.”

On their website, NHS states that ulcerative colitis — a chronic inflammatory bowel disease O’Connor suffered from — can significantly increase the risks of developing cancer.

O’Connor passing has been announced by her promotion company BOXXER.

“We are heartbroken by the passing of Georgia O’Connor,” BOXXER said in a statement on X. “A true warrior inside and outside the ring, the boxing community has lost a talented, courageous and determined young woman far too soon.”

Doctor who worked with Joe Biden says he had cancer ‘while president’

By
Monica Pop
-

Joe Biden’s cancer diagnosis caused a stir among the public. While many shared their support, others — mainly MAGA supporters — accused him of keeping his diagnosis a secret due to the fact that prostate cancer usually takes time to spread and Biden’s has been aggressive and already spreading to his bones.

President Donald Trump and Vice-President JD Vance were among those who questioned Biden’s transparency regarding his health while serving as the head of the country.

Now, a top oncologist who used to work with Joe Biden says he has probably had the cancer for “a decade.”

Dr Ezekiel Emanuel, who took part in crafting the the Obama-era Affordable Care Act, shared on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that Biden likely had cancer while serving as a president.

Host Joe Scarborough asked the doctor, “I just want to stop you here. So, this is not speculation. If you have prostate cancer that has spread to the bone, then he most certainly–you are saying had it when he was president of the United States.”

Dr Emanuel replied, “Oh, yeah. He did not develop it in the last 100 to 200 days.

“He had it while he was president. [Biden] probably had it at the start of his presidency in 2021. Yes, I don’t think there’s any disagreement about that.”

Although guidelines recommend against prostate cancer screening for men 70 and older, Dr Emanuel stated that both Presidents Obama and George W. Bush underwent prostate cancer tests, and that “it is a little surprising that the doctor didn’t take it” when Biden was at the White House.

He also added that it is very surprising doctors didn’t diagnose Biden earlier.

In light of the former president’s diagnosis, a 2022 video of Biden in Massachusetts resurfaced on social media, showing him speaking about the effects of pollution on health.

At one moment, he could be heard saying, “That’s why I—and so damn many other people I grew up with—have cancer.”

According to the White House, Biden’s off-script comment was about his past non-melanoma skin cancer that had been removed at the time of his speech.

Trump and many of his supporters accused Biden’s wife, Jill Biden, of being aware of her husband’s health condition and still encouraging him to run for a second term.

Man who consumed 7 liters of soda daily for a decade suffers severe health consequences

By

-

What started as a sugar craving became a dangerous addiction with health consequences for a man who consumed 7 liters of soda for an entire decade.

The case of the man, known as BA, has been featured in an episode of the YouTube channel Chubbyemu that spreads awareness by sharing medical incidents.

BA, 48, was sent to the ER “with sudden onset weakness.”

Until the age of 30, he was leading a rather healthy life but he then took a new job at a company where there was “free, unlimited soda for employees to drink.”

Over time, he got addicted to the sugary drink and the more he had it, the thirstier he got. What’s more, he would always wake up feeling extremely thirsty and instead of having water, he would drink more soda.

Eventually, he developed “short of breath,” stomach ache, and brain fog that ultimately led to “stuttering and slurring his words.”

One day, he was found unconscious at his desk at work and rushed to the hospital where they discovered his sugar levels were so high that he entered a diabetic coma.

At the time, he didn’t tell the doctors about his soda drinking habit because he thought it was irrelevant.

He was sent home with proper medications for his high blood sugar, his high blood pressure, and his cholesterol.

On the way home, he got himself a few cans of soda, unaware it was what made him sick in the first place.

Soon after, he collapsed again.

Doctors discovered his potassium levels were extremely high, his muscles were “spilling their contents out,” a condition known as “rhabdomyolysis,” and his kidneys were also “shutting down.”

Feeling unwell, he called his wife to bring him some soda to help him with his thirst and his massive headache. Looking at him drinking the soda, a student realized the consumption of the drink could be behind BA’s condition.

“In the kidneys, huge excess sugar from drinking one to two gallons of soda every day for 10 years can make it harder to absorb water because the water will want to stay with the sugar,” his doctor explained.

The caffeine in the soda interfered with blood flow and water balance, causing BA’s body to dehydrate and his kidneys to fail.

He was told to stop drinking the soft drink, and once he was able to break his habit, his potassium levels returned to normal, his renal function improved, and his muscle weakness disappeared.

Speaking of BA’s case and the health consequences of drinking too much soda, the doctor explained, “So take the study results with what you will. Type 2 diabetes and all its comorbidities like heart problems and nerve damage. Hypokalemia and all its consequences and kidney stones are what we’re thinking of when we’re speaking of excess chronic soda ingestion.”

5 foreign countries tightening rules for Americans living and working abroad

By
Monica Pop
-

For a huge number of Americans, holding a US passport felt like owning a golden ticket to any place around the globe. For decades, a number of countries have welcomed US citizens to live and work abroad with open arms, but that seems to be changing.

Due to politics and fears of foreigners taking local jobs, many countries are reconsidering their immigration policies. From introducing tougher visa requirements, to stricter implementation of existing laws, nations are sending message to Americans that their privileges are no longer guaranteed.

Pexels

The reasons why more and more Americans are choosing to move permanently to foreign countries are varied. Among the rest, they are looking for places with more affordable healthcare, lower living costs, safer communities, and political stability.

Among the foreign countries that started implementing changes is a popular destination for travel and living for many Americans — Japan.

Japan launches JESTA for Visa-Exempt Visitors

Pexels

This country has been known as a welcoming place for tourists from visa-exempt countries. However, Japan’s Justice Minister Keisuke Suzuki announced that “the country’s electronic travel authorization system, provisionally called “JESTA” (Japan Electronic System for Travel Authorization), will be implemented by fiscal year 2028.”

In order to receive approval to enter the country, visa-exempt visitors will need to submit key information online in advance, including the purpose of the travel and accommodation details.

Canada: From Welcoming Neighbor to Shutting the Gates

Pexels

For a number of Americans, Canada has always been an attractive destination both for travel and living. Not only does it feel like home because of the similarities between the two cultures, but it also offers a high standard of living

However, our north neighbor is now applying stricter protocols for asylum seekers, workers, and other categories.

In general, they are slowing down the pace of immigration and that also applies to temporary foreign worker programs and student visas.

Although there are no bans, there certainly will be delays.

The UAE: Strict Enforcement of Laws

Pexels

For any American seeking a tax-free job, the UAE, especially Dubai, has been number one choice. In 2025, however, the country enforced stricter residency rules. Unless you’re in a high-demand field like tech or healthcare—or you own a large business—your visa will likely not be extended.

The recent implementation of a 9% corporate tax has also pushed away Americans who saw UAE as a low-tax paradise.

In a nutshell, if you don’t contribute big, you are asked to leave.

Russia: Diplomatic Tensions

Pexels

The list of “unfriendly countries” that Russia first established in 2021 sees the States as part of it.

Despite this, the number of Americans applying for visas rose in 2024.

The process of application and approval is now much longer than it used to be.

The country can impose bans or travel limits as a reaction to political developments.

Fewer and fewer US citizens are having their residency renewed, and many business owned by Americans are forced to shut down due to sanctions and government restrictions.

China: Persistent Risks

Pexels

China’s treatment of foreigners has never been a consistent one. Most recently, however, many American’s are denied visa renewals. What’s more, they are only given a few days notice to leave the country.

Things became even more difficult for US citizens and American businesses in China following the decision by Trump’s administration to impose high tariffs.

Jill Biden accused of ‘elder abuse’ amid growing concerns over Joe Biden’s diagnosis

By

-

After they posted message of support and expressed their sadness over Joe Biden’s aggressive prostate cancer diagnosis, Donald Trump, JD Vance, and a number of their allies and supporters, accused the former president and his wife, Jill Biden, of hiding his diagnosis.

Leo Terrell, who works in the Justice Department’s civil rights division, posted on the social media, “Elder Abuse! Criminal Charges??”

In another post he published, which included a photo of Biden’s wife, Jill Biden, taken at the Oval Office during her husband’s presidency, Terrell wrote, “She knew about President Biden’s health problems. But still wanted him to run for President. Evil.”

Terrell, a long-time contributor to Fox News and senior lawyer to the assistant attorney general, posted the message from his personal X account.

He then reshared the letters his followers had sent to him, in which they also accused Jill Biden over keeping Biden’s diagnosis a secret.

“Elder abuse is a form of domestic violence and Dr. Biden has a lot of explaining to do about her part in defrauding the American people and taxpayers,” the letter from one of Terrell’s supporters read. “I would never wish Joe Biden physical harm despite my personal political views; too bad his own family compromised his wellbeing.”

“His medical team should have caught this years ago! Shame on Jill & all who turned their heads & ignored this!” wrote another supporter reposted by Terrell.

“Imagine if you will, a woman so power hungry and evil that she would submit her husband, suffering w/ dementia to ridicule, jokes, and humiliation,” read another message.

“She is GREEDY,” another Terrell follower wrote. “She wanted the prestige. I’m sure someone paid her well, you know a slush fund. Someone knew he would be able to call the shots, hmmm 3rd term.”

“It’s always the cover-up! Americans do not like liars!” Terrell added.

More and more MAGA supporters believe that the Bidens hid the truth from them, claiming Biden knew about his cancer even while still in office.

Donald Trump Jr. was among those who pointed a finger at Jill Biden.

“What I want to know is how did Dr. Jill Biden miss stage five metastatic cancer or is this yet another coverup???” he posted on X after he previously wished Biden a speedy recovery.
