You've probably eaten food everyday of your life.

Give your poor body a break.

HERES HOW TO FAST AND WHY ITS SO BENEFICIAL:
First we will quickly look at the incredible benefits of fasting

Then we will get into how to fast, and answer your commonly asked questions down below.

THE BENEFITS OF FASTING:
1.) Stem Cell Regeneration

Fasting can drastically increase stem cell regenerative capacity by up to 2x.

The body cleans out damaged cells during a fast and regenerates new stem cells, promoting longevity and reducing the risk of chronic diseases:
2.) Improved Gut Health

Giving the digestive system a break through fasting allows for healing and reduces symptoms of gut-related issues like:

• Bloating
• Inflammation
• Leaky gut
• Dysbiosis
3.) Enhanced Brain Function

Fasting increases the production of brain-derived neurotrophic fact or (BDNF).

This is magical brain fertiliser.

It supports cognitive function, learning, and memory, while also protecting against neurodegenerative diseases.
4.) Hormone Optimization

Fasting has a significant impact on the body's hormonal balance.

Particularly in relation to growth hormone, insulin, and other key hormones that influence metabolism, muscle growth, and overall energy levels.
5.) Improved Metabolic Health

Fasting helps regulate blood sugar levels, increases insulin sensitivity, and reduces inflammation.

All of which are crucial for preventing metabolic disorders like type 2 diabetes:
6.) Lowered Risk of Chronic Diseases

Fasting reduces risk of heart disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders due to its anti-inflammatory and cellular repair benefits.
HOW TO FAST

Pick a duration.

There are several types of fasting, each with its own approach and benefits.

Here’s some of the most common types:

1. Intermittent Fasting
Example: you fast for 16 hours and eat all your meals within an 8-hour window.
2. Extended Fasting
Example: 24-72 Hour Fasting

3. Partial Fasting
Example: Juice Fasting

4. Multi-Day Fasting
Example: Fasting for more than 72 hours
As a general rule, the longer you fast the more of the benefits you are going to see.

For example, it’s not until 48 hours that you see autophagy really start to kick in and your immune system begins to reset.
•Start with a 24-hour fast—it's virtually foolproof.

Even if you're new to fasting.

Once you've nailed that, challenge yourself with a few 48-hour fasts the next few times.

Then, when you ready for it, push it to 72 hours. This where the real magic begins to happen.
