We all know that food is medicine--yet going without food is one of
the single best things you can do for your health. Short, doable fasts,
when strategically timed, are an incredibly powerful metabolic
intervention, dovetailing perfectly with a ketogenic diet to activate
your body's fat-burning mode. This in turn can ward off insulin
resistance, reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, optimize brain
function, prevent neurological problems, support weight loss, and
more.
In this in-depth yet accessible guide, now available in paperback, New
York Times best-selling author Dr. Joseph Mercola explores the profound
health benefits that result when ketogenic living and well-planned
fasting are combined. Topics include:
How our food is making us sick and what we can do about it
The physiology and mechanisms of fasting, including stem cell activation
How the cyclical ketogenic diet--with fasting included--differs from the
conventional keto diet
How fasting works and how safe it is for you
How regular one-day fasts support fat burning and detoxification while
minimizing hunger and side effects
How to monitor your progress with lab tests
And much more
