Amazing New Study Reveals Miracle Benefits Of Fasting

[@bobk.463]

Fasting and keto is reversing my Parkinson's symptoms. I think this is causing neurogenesis and the removal of defective mitochondria. My tremors are almost gone as well as another motor and none -motor symptoms. It has eliminated my bladder issues.

[@nirmalashish]

Amazing

[@Insp.CountMortisWinshipKlaw]

There is only one disease and its mucus. Fasting allows the body to repair and get rid of mucus allowing the cells to regenerate. All cooked food is acidic and causes mucus which stagnates the lymphatic system leading to disease. To increase health switch to a 100% raw fruit diet. I cured psoriasis and arthritis

[@kateliddle4814]

Amazing. So happy for you 🙂

[@glowlight3791]

Bob K. I have a familiar tremor that gets better when I am in ketosis. I am so glad to hear that it helps your Parkinson’s tremors. I have looked for research around the keto diet and tremors but have yet to find much. Only anecdotal examples from people like us. I would love to see some research around this idea that a state of ketosis can reduce tremors. All the best to you. I hope you continue to see reduction in your Parkinson’s symptoms.

Mine was the same after I lost 45 pounds in 5 months. But why did I have to find out about fasting by some wonderful person who recommended it to me in a KZbin comment? I needed to lose weight for years and no professional ever said a word. It’s gotta change.

[@martyvanord984]

@@juliakay6204 We are sadly to the point where deliberate misinformation and carefully scripted jargon is the norm. So is medication to keep us going. It seems that as long as the cash register keeps ringing there is no incentive to change the norm. Anecdotal is a favorite jargon word. The norm is that those most in need of help seek advice and consolation from those who are part of the problem. Denial is the norm as is obesity. My wife was a teacher and those who were undeniably obese adamantly insisted that 'this is my normal weight and I am as i should be.' The food in the lounge for staff appreciation day would leave a keto person with literally no choice but to begin intermittent fasting.

When I was a kid growing up in the 60s and 70s we did IF and the keto diet every day, back then it was called being dirt poor. We ate mostly off the land and didn't have access or the money to get junk food. Eating once a day and sometimes nothing a day was common. We only saw a doctor if we were injured and never had one cavity even though our water came from a well and was not fluorinated. We wanted to get the measles or mumps because it meant a few days out of school. The chicken pox not so much but only because it itched too badly. The idea of someone dying from these what at the time for us was slightly annoying childhood illnesses was unheard of and never happened in my area. Who knew there was an up side to being poor 🤔

I've fasted twice for 14 days each and after you get past the third day you lose interest in eating and feel fine. You need to prepare for this by eliminating carbs and and eating twice a day. Then try one meal a day for a week or two then try short fasts of a couple days at a time. It helps to be in ketosis first. The first time I fasted for 14 days I was amazed that I could do this and feel fine, I realized that eating is a habit and you just have to resist temptation. I also drink water with sodium and potassium chloride (NoSalt) mixed in. (3 teaspoons/2 quarts water). My hemorrhoids are almost gone, skin tags have disappeared, my weights down to 190 and feel great at 65. BTW If you don't have excess body fat don't fast for more than a couple days if that.

If anyone has ever had nasal polyps they would tell you that we would rather be deaf or blind. I have had surgery a few times because thus far their is no cure for nasal polyps. However, I have had zero polyps or symptoms of polyps since fasting! My Asthma and emphysema is under control with me still far from perfect but I am breathing better than most average people.

@Nadja Davidson I let my body tell me. It is hard to explain, but I will try. First, understand the difference between an addivtive craving (sugars and the like) and your body's cravings for something it may be lacking. For instance, when I have been doing strict carnivore, I will sometimes start craving a big salad or some other vegetables. So, I will eat them for days, weeks, or even months, thereby doing keto. I always keep fat high and carbs low.

Intermittent fasting definitely works. Down 35 pounds and am not that hungry until about 2PM or 4PM or 16 or 18 hours fasting since dinner the previous evening. Started at 12 hour fast and gradually built it to 18 hours normlly. Once in a while I'll have a braekfast on a weekend which becomes like a reward. Also cut down dramatically on alcohol which has helped. It is the ony sustainable diet in my 40 plus years of being overweight that has worked.

I am a muslim and I started fasting for ramadan when I was 12 years old. For years people criticized it and said fasting is so unhealthy and I shouldn’t do it. But I felt amazing after doing it for the whole month and I could see the change in my body. I knew that it was because of the rest that I gave my body especially my stomach, that way my body had the time to detox. Because we can’t even drink for those hours we give our stomach a full rest so I feel like it’s slightly more effective. Thanks to science it’s finally proven that fasting has a lot of benefits and it‘s not unhealthy at all.

I started intermittent fasting about 5 months ago - 24lb weight loss so far and have found it extremely doable for me . I think North Americans have been raised to believe they should never feel hunger so keep shoving the food in . Starting fasting for 15-16 hrs a day made it easy and moving gradually to 19 hours which I am doing daily now has improved my energy levels and decreased the inflammation I was feeling . Trying to move to 20hrs daily a few weeks back caused a real blood sugar drop and a faintness that made me know that that time is too long for me at this point . The weight loss was my main goal but the other positive side effects of the fasting will keep me doing it .

I drink water, bone broth, green tea, vites, potassium, magnesium, electrolytes, Light exercises most days, nothing strenuous. I tried bike riding but got wiped out. been biking for months so I over did it. Sometimes I was hungry at night but ignored it. Next day I was smiling because I lost a pound. After 30 days, will slowly introduce food, an egg and veggie or salad. Will probably do alternate days of fast. Eventually one meal a day. I'm so happy I have started this journey. I'm 66, no prescription drugs, don't drink or smoke. norm blood pressure. Will do fasting again...at lease once a month. It's so worth it. I hope I can encourage others to try.

Sugar was killing me! I started getting almost all sugar out of my diet that is causing me inflammation and most importantly inflammation of my brain.

Did my first 100 mile bicycle ride in nearly 9 months, I’ve done 2 since, I go to the gym 5-6 days a week, done three 72 hr fasts for even greater clarity. This has been a life changing event. I have 0 symptoms of dementia and BP is normal 123/73. My mom died with Dementia. I was afraid for my life. I have since explained all these symptoms to my Dr. with no medical explanation diagnosis or treatment. Come to find out doctors have very little training in nutrition.
