Intermittent Fasting or Extended Fasts

Postby KillSwitch » Sun Oct 03, 2021 3:13 pm

I am just curious. Has anyone here ever done intermittent fasting or perhaps the extended fasts (24 hours or more) like they do at True North? I simply wish to talk to others who have done or are doing this and what your personal experiences were/are please.

I find Dr. Jason Fung from Canada fascinating. I love his books and youTube videos, but I don't believe in fasting and eating a ketogenic diet. I am interested in fasting by those who are eating a WFPB diet.

Thanks--

I tried a vegetarian keto diet, made me feel awful,, unlike water fasting, which I did 20 years ago on my own for two weeks, I was more naive, but only drank distilled spring water and worked at retail as a cashier, I felt great maybe because I was overweight, but the first few days I had a major caffeine withdrawal headache, still worked, it passed, but had to stop sooner than I wanted due to the foul breath you get fasting, it was really offending customers.
