Beginning my WEEK long fast - Why Fast?
Fasting for a week, it starts now. Here's my plan and thoughts on fasting for those of you who are interested in learning why fasting and intermittent fasting is not only not "unhealthy" but can be incredibly beneficial when done correctly.
I briefly mention some myths of fasting, such as:
Slower metabolism. Muscle burned for energy. Starvation mode.
As well as briefly mention some benefits like:
Increased HGH
Increased metabolism
Fat burning
Increased stem cell production
Autophagy and Longevity
Let me know what else you'd like to know about fasting. I'll be tackling a different myth or benefits of fasting every day this week as well as documenting my experience fasting for a week while also attempting some ninja warrior training.
