[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you all seen the documentary about fasting where there are special fasting clinics in Europe and Russia for people with auto immune conditions. They are under medical supervision and fast for  weeks to a month at a time and it completely resets their system, gets them off medications and then they maintain some sort of fast in their real life. Even a cancer clinic in LA is doing trials on it. It's really interesting![/quote]

The Science of Fasting? I saw it. I doubt any American would put much value into USSR and Russian communist science, German research and Italian even if he is working at USC. I think that we can learn a lot from former USSR research and from Asian and Indian philosophies and lifestyle. Yoga is fixing my chronic back pain, and it is cheaper than physical therapy and healthier than steroids. But, I am Slavic. I am also pp who doesn't believe our bodies have evolved to accommodate this many calories, and that we still operate on short bursts of feast and long periods of famine. My own grandmother observed lent as did all the "peasants" in my country until communists took over. Heavy or not, it seems that benefits of fasting are primarily health related and weight loss is a byproduct. [/quote]
