“Fasting carries significant health benefits. Metabolism increases, energy increases and blood sugars decrease. The only remaining question is this: Can you do it? I hear this one all the time.

“Regular fasting, by routinely lowering insulin levels, has been shown to significantly improve insulin sensitivity. This finding is the missing piece in the weight-loss puzzle. Most diets restrict the intake of foods that cause increased insulin secretion, but don’t address insulin resistance.

By fasting, you can efficiently reduce your body’s insulin resistance, since it requires both persistent and high levels.” HealthWeight LossFastingDietDietingLosing Weight Author:Jason Fung
