In this Research Rundown we discuss fasting more in depth, and reference reading material that has been put out by Human Health Services on the mobile app, LifeApp. This is a very informative read if you want to know more about what happens during a zero calorie fast, and the metabolic switch which occurs. Be sure to watch Episode 14, 15, and 16 too, as all of those Research Rundowns feature the topic of fasting.

Highlights:

  • What is fasting? Fasting is essentially taking on a diet that includes no calories. Someone who is doing a zero calorie fast would only consume fluid like water, tea, coffee, bone broth, diluted apple cider vinegar. Juices and anything that has added sugar is off limits.
    • Minerals and electrolytes should be added to water to avoid depletion.
  • At 72 hours you’ve completed the multiple phases that your body goes through during a water fast.
    • The benefits go far beyond these multiple phases — you’re going to lose weight, feel better & smile at the fact your grocery bill is going down!
  • di Girolamo recommends that everyone should try fasting as a total body reset. The result is mind clarity, anti-aging, anti-inflammation, and weight loss – to name just a few.
  • At HBOT News we’ve now completed a number of segments that talk about fasting, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT), and even cancer. Remember that the research points to the combination of water fasting/heavy ketogenic diet and HBOT as a possible way to completely eliminate cancer from the body; maybe even cure cancer.
  • Extivita-RTP combines water fasting and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for the ultimate anti-inflammatory effect on your body.  They call this unique program the Longevity Challenge.
    • Our hope is that everyone has an opportunity to participate in such a wonderful program sometime.
