Just found this article on fasting at youtube, selected for me by my opening another page for a few minutes, and when I came back to youtube, this was playing. I'm intrigued. The claim is made that after a person fasts for 9 hours, during the next few hours the body begins healing itself, and even named the process. I may try this because I frequently have autoimmune issues and wondered if there is a solution outside conventional diets that would make some ailments subside. Anyone noticed an improved outlook and subsidence of issues after fasting for a couple of days?
