Lalit Kapoor story

[pundit999]

Came across this great story:

By 2012 lifestyle diseases had caught up with him and he was on medications for Hypertension, Diabetes, Hypothyroid, Gout, Osteo Arthritis and Sleep Apnea. To cure his diseases he developed interest in nutrition and educated himself in the field. Pursuing a Plant Based Whole Food dietary discipline, and various fasting regimes he was able to lose 50 pounds of weight, get off all medications and reinvent himself.

Later

To keep myself motivated I started watching documentaries and YouTube videos by various doctors and medical Universities on health topics, on a daily basis. In 2015 started attending Weekend Study programs conducted by Dr. John McDougall in Santa Rosa about 60 miles from our house. Such Seminars provided opportunity to meet with doctors like McDougall, Dr. Collin Campbell, Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn, Dr. Greger and others who were always helpful to clarify doubts.
....
I have found that the changes I achieved in one to two years are attainable in much shorter time frame if PBWF/IF/10K recommendations are followed to a T and combined with biweekly and once a year water fast of 9-10 days with a single 500 calorie meal of low protein diet. Many in my different groups have successfully confirmed that.

I want to emphasize to all and specially to those who are sitting on the sideline that nothing succeeds like success. If you make only minor changes, the results will also be minor and if you are a skeptic you will not connect the two and fall back. Try making some drastic changes at least for three weeks and you will be sold. Besides your friends will comment and pay compliments. All changes will be for the positive and you will feel great.

The last paragraph fully resonates with my experience and many others' on this forum.

If you read the full article towards the end it says

"I have found that the changes I achieved in one to two years are attainable in much shorter time frame if PBWF/IF/10K recommendations are followed to a T and combined with biweekly and once a year water fast of 9-10 days with a single 500 calorie meal of low protein diet."

I don't understand what he means by "biweekly and once a year water fast of 9-10 days with a single 500 calorie meal" how can you fast for 9-10 days biweekly? Is there a typo? Does he mean he eats a 500 calorie meal every 10 days? Anyone any idea?

Lalit has many detailed videos on YouTube and there is a lot of information on his web site.
But I think what he meant was that if you really wish to turbo charge your recovery, you can do water fast twice a week where you consume only water except one meal that provides 500 calories . And you also do this kind of fast over 10 days continuously once a year.
His argument is that water fasting this way rejuvenates the body.
Much of this water fasting advice is based on recent Nobel prizes in this area.

I love this!

If you make only minor changes, the results will also be minor
