You may thing you know about fasting, but I maintain that until you have seen this particular film, what you know is probably imprecise. At least that was the case with me. The jaw dropping revelation about WHY fasting works comes toward the end of the film, so stay with it.
Thanks, Celia. Dr. Herbert Shelton is the great expert and practitioner of fasting. (The Science and Fine Art of Fasting) Tens of thousands of successes and one failure and they destroyed him. His work saved and inspired Dr. Joel Fuhrman. (drfuhrman.com) I’ve heard that in the early 20th century, the most common medical advice and treatment was fasting and diet change. And then came pharmaceuticals. Not much money to be made in fasting….
Wow, Doug, I didn’t know that. It all makes perfect sense now. I am on day 3 of an Edgay Cayce apple fast. Apples and water. It wasn’t hard at all. I may keep going.
Terrific doco thanks Celia. I’ve been doing 17hrs daily, now working up to 24hr.
Mark Twain swore by fasting. (He liked to swear.) During the 19 century, it was a much more common practice.
