Look into a process named "autophagy"

It's basically a self healing process of body cells, initiated by fasting. Consider it a full reset and recycling process. It literally means "self eating" and diposes of abundant cells, i.e. fat and in many cases even cancer cells. Normalized blood sugar, blood pressure, digestive system and gets rid of body inflammation. There is a reason why fasting is a component of all major religions. It also clears the mind , which is a nice side effect. Resets dopamine levels within the brain.

Reason why it's not widely known is because big pharma makes $0 from it. All you need is yourself and your mind.

Very interesting! Maybe this is also why we sometimes lose our appetite when we are sick? Maybe that is our bodies way of doing this for us naturally? I appreciate this info. Thank you! I'm going to look more into this and save this reply! I love this site, because I always learn new stuff here.
