Deep dives

The Immunity Code and the Rhythms of Nature

Joel Green developed the Immunity Code, a system based on the understanding of how nature's rhythms optimize human physiology. Nature's rhythms include fasting, feasting, abundance, and scarcity. Fasting, when done in conjunction with foraging and feasting, has numerous benefits. It allows the body to turn off growth and focus on repair and housekeeping. However, excessive fasting can lead to gut issues and other adverse effects. Joel suggests incorporating fasting as part of a larger pattern that includes foraging and feasting for optimal benefits. Timing also plays a role, as aligning activities with natural diurnal rhythms and engaging with nature can further enhance physiological function.
