[QUOTE="PlevenskiTarikat, post: 1182665, member: 8216"] If anyone is interested in fasting, I'd suggest they look into Dr.Jason Fung's book, The Complete Guide to Fasting. Just keep in mind, if one is interested in fasting, it's probably not the best idea to jump into extended water fasting or some of the extreme variants like dry fasting. To the uninitiated, if you're interested in giving fasting a try, it's best to give intermittent fasting a spin, which is where you fast every single day for a certain amount of hours and consume your daily calories in a "feeding window." I started off with O.M.A.D. (one meal a day)/Warrior diet and stick to a vegetarian keto diet. Ketosis (using your own body fat for energy vis-a-vis ketones) and lowering insulin is what you're trying to achieve through any form of fasting and optimizing growth hormone/testosterone for a great anabolic state -- all through timing when you eat. It's been practiced for thousands of years through necessity and then various religious traditions and it's one of the oldest "tricks" in the book to be healthy; however most people are looking for an easy fix and not willing to endure any amount of displeasure and that speaks volumes.
