    Not surprisingly, we usually force people to eat when their body tells them not to. I had a bad case of flu (or even covid?) after coming back from traveling abroad last January. I was in bed and didn’t eat for almost two days, only water and tea. I can honestly say it was the fastest recovery from what felt like a hell of an infection.

    I drank ACV, lemon water, water and tea otherwise.
    The past 2 days, I randomly decided to try my first 48 hour fast (my fever was gone and just had post-nasal drip and wet cough every few hours). The fast felt great!
    I took lomg walks in the sun both days of the fast and slept like a baby👶

I turn purple which means little blood circulation to heal faster (it’s more complicated than this but just a general idea). Anyway I started fasting 16 hour and I feel like this helps speed it up.

      @ahimsa6791 Рік тому

      I don't believe in a god because I have not seen evidence of a god. That doesn't mean there is no god. I acknowledge I could be wrong. Science now can answer so many questions that went unanswered for millennia. That is why most people no longer believe in Thor (god of lightning) or Helios (god of the sun). Before the birth of modern science, we couldn't fathom how those things worked, and so we concluded that there must be a god or higher being in charge of those things. Now we know. To be sure, science cannot explain everything. Most evolutionary scientists believe that the big bang is the most likely explanation for the origin of life, but they can't tell us what came before the big bang. But it isn't logical to assume that just because they don't have that answer, that it must be a god. Perhaps they will discover the answer one day, not necessarily in our lifetimes, but one day.

    As with every advice, I have a counterexample. Had salmonella infection, severe diarrhea. waterfasted 5 days. Got worse and worse, water that I drank came out of my butt 2 minutes after drinking it. It seems like in the 5 days, while the rest of the microbiom went to sleep, the salmonella even got more room to grow. After ending the fast, my dicestive system turned every food directly into liquid and it shot out of the back.
    So I know that Dr. Berg provides great information in general. But there is no guarantee that fasting will work for you. From my experience, there is just one ultimate advice: listen to your body. If the current procedure hurts you, change it.

      When fasting you should probably focus on fat burning exercises like cardio, when you're fasting and your body doesn't have carbs to fuel your muscles your performance will suffer, when focusing on building muscles eat carbs to perform optimally and to help break down those muscle fibers, when trying to cut fat you should lower the carbs and go into a caloric deficit

    If you are fasting, why would you ingest vitamin supplements and garlic? Isn't the point to not be kicked out of the fast? Taking those things kicks you out. I just do water with sea salt.

    Thanks so much, Dr Berg, we really need this right now. We don’t have access to our usual medical care in England anymore. Though I do think these natural interventions are much better than what has been afforded by mainstream medicine, you need to know what they are in order to use them when you need them.
    Would you consider what you would do if you were on long term meds. Like for instance thyroxine and you were hypothetically denied it due to non compliance with other treatments? Or you couldn’t get it because supply chain goes down.

    In my experience, fasting helps with infections but it makes the body frail and you become more sensitive to airborne toxins so you need to be careful with fasting. Also, it will take a few days of fasting to get rid of the infection. There are other more efficient and faster ways I deal with infections.
