FAQ
The Fast to Faith® 40‑Day Program FAQ guide provides concise answers to the most common participant questions about nutrition, fasting, symptom management, supplements, and the program’s faith component. It introduces the 2‑10‑20‑30 meal‑building rule (2 g sea salt, 10 g carbs, 20 g protein, 30 g fat per meal) and the overall macro split of roughly 75 % fat, 10 % carbs, and 15 % protein, explaining why this therapeutic ratio supports fat‑burning. The guide details the importance of sodium replacement to avoid “keto flu” symptoms, offers protein substitution options, and clarifies that meals can be timed flexibly (e.g., skipping breakfast). It recommends food‑tracking apps for macro compliance and emphasizes high‑fiber carb sources while avoiding low‑fiber, insulin‑spiking foods. Fasting beverage rules (plain water, black coffee, plain tea) and guidance on electrolyte powder use are outlined, with a note on artificial sweeteners. The document reassures participants to keep any existing nutritionist plan alongside the program. It explains the physiological rationale for low‑carb eating (insulin reduction, fat oxidation) and clarifies that dietary fat does not raise harmful cholesterol, highlighting the difference between anti‑inflammatory fats and seed oils. Protein’s role in tissue repair and hormone synthesis is described. Symptom‑specific troubleshooting covers dizziness/fatigue (sodium), reflux (digestive enzymes/bile), nausea (fat intake adjustment, magnesium), and weight‑loss plateaus (liver fat burn). Optional supplement suggestions are listed, and the faith component is presented as a non‑denominational, whole‑person approach encouraging surrender and peace rather than pressure. The guide ends with contact points: personal coaches, a Monday group call with Dr. Tabatha, and links to the supplement shop and discovery call.
Topics
2‑10‑20‑30 Meal‑Building Rule: Per‑Meal Macro Blueprint
Defines the core guideline of 2 g sea salt, 10 g carbs, 20 g protein, and 30 g fat for each meal, allowing participants to construct meals without a rigid plan.
Program Macro Ratio: 75 % Fat, 10 % Carbs, 15 % Protein – Therapeutic Fat‑Burning Split
Explains the overall macronutrient distribution that underpins the program’s fat‑burning strategy and why it differs from typical diets.
Sodium Replenishment via Sea Salt: Preventing Keto‑Flu Symptoms
Describes how reduced insulin increases renal sodium loss, and why adding sea salt (or electrolyte powder/bone broth) each meal mitigates dizziness, fatigue, headaches, and constipation.
Protein Substitutions & Portion Guidance for Non‑Egg Eaters
Offers animal and vegetarian protein alternatives and quantifies portions (~3–4 oz) needed to meet the 20 g protein target per meal.
Flexible Eating Window: Skipping Breakfast and Meal Timing Freedom
Clarifies that participants may begin their eating window at any time that fits their schedule; no mandatory breakfast is required.
Food‑Tracking Tools for Macro Compliance
Recommends specific apps (Cronometer, MyFitnessPal, Carb Manager) to quickly view nutritional information and stay within the 2‑10‑20‑30 parameters.
High‑Fiber vs Low‑Fiber Carb Sources: Optimizing Carb Quality
Guides participants to choose non‑starchy vegetables, nuts, seeds, and berries while avoiding pasta, rice, cereals, and sweets that spike insulin.
Fasting Beverages: Allowed Drinks During the Fast
Specifies that only plain water, black coffee, and plain tea are permissible during fasting windows to avoid insulin triggers.
