Innate Healing System Activation
The body possesses an innate healing system that can reverse nearly every disease when properly activated. This system operates efficiently under conditions of scarcity, a state our ancestors often faced, and can be stimulated through various fasting techniques. Modern lifestyles, characterized by an abundance of food, disrupt this natural mechanism, leading to health issues such as obesity. Engaging in practices like intermittent fasting helps to engage this ancient system, enhancing hormone regulation, cellular repair, and metabolic health.
