Once a qtr I do 5+ days of water + electrolytes only.<p>Made a measurable difference.<p>Also maintain that with no food Mondays. Last meal Sun at 7p than fest on Tue lunch. Every week.<p>The difference comes in many folds.with one being less obvious; self discipline.<p>I admit now with a child. That 5 day qtrly fast has become impossible but can't give up on something that works.<p>I truly believe if everyone skips eating one day a week and IMF the rest. Our health system will be so disrupted with healthy ppl. Big pharma and private hospitals would go out of business. Then maintain healthcare by the gov could easily take place in the US.
