ORIGINAL: SorceressJ Starvation is bad for you and Old Threads Never Die. -The End- Starvation may be bad for you, but intermittent fasting and withholding of food is -not-. I work in a cancer hospital, and there has been substantial research done showing that intermittent fasting and calorie restriction, properly done, actually -increase- human longetivity and reduce the risk of a number of degenerative diseases from arthritis and Altzheimers to cancer and autoimmune dysfunctions. For myself, I am a relatively recent convert to the IF/CRON (intermittent fasting-calorie restriction optimal nutrition) camp, and my neurologist, immunologist, cardiologist, nephrologist, and family physician all confirm significant improvement in my MS, autoimmune degeneration (genetic dysfunction), cardivascular disease profile, kidney degeneration (caused by autoimmune issues) and general health. Calla Of course, Calla, but we weren't talking about that kind of restriction - and that being said, and although I am on a path of weight loss and do not have any health concerns: I am very interested in things like homeopathy, sustainability and natural remedies, and would be very interested in hearing more about this intermittent fasting and calorie-restriction therapy.. please PM me or answer here at your convenience. Blessings!
