Light Up Your Metabolism Episode 8. Fasting: The most effective (& FREE) way to reverse diabetes, prevent Alzheimer's, balance hormones, lose weight, & reduce inflammation.
Fasting is the oldest dietary intervention ever used. It is a practice used in every single major world religion. Fasting is the opposite of feasting. Fasting is free, convenient, flexible, and powerful. It is where we step aside and give our body a chance to heal itself. When we cut our skin, we don't need to do anything for our skin to heal. Our body immediately begins healing. Yes, we might put on a band-aid to avoid dirt from entering the wound, but we essentially are getting out of the body's way so it can do it's thing. This is the same concept with fasting.
On this week's episode, I talk all about fasting and how you can begin to implement it. I discuss:
-The benefits of fasting
-Who shouldn't fast
-Who should fast
-The types of fasting
-Questions about hunger
-What you can have and can't have during a fast
-Considerations for supplements/medications
-Things to be mindful of while fasting and before fasting
-What to expect as you begin your fasting journey
Please be sure to work alongside your healthcare practitioner if you are currently taking medications or before embarking on a fast longer than a day. Start slowly! And HYDRATE!
