Important to acknowledge he is attacking the branding of fasting, which today seems to be turning into a game of telephone which went from "skip breakfast or lunch every now and then" to "just stop eating for days!"
Anorexia really is a deadly condition. I see a lot of refeeding syndrome patients on the elderly care ward. Sadly, these are the ones who have dementia, swallowing difficulties due to prior strokes, cancer or depression that means they either can’t physically eat or don’t have the appetite or will to do so. Pretty much the only thing we can do is replenish vitamins and electrolytes intravenously. Young and healthy people can recover. But for older patients who stop eating, it can be a much more serious scenario.
I fasted for 7 days, I had no idea refeeding syndrome could be lethal. I had a little yogurt and some fruit to break the fast, however, I let that settle in for 3 hours or so before I proceeded to gorge myself on pizza, cookies ice cream, etc for the remainder of the day. I got sweats, fatigue, dizzy spells and ultimately fell hard asleep. Be extremely careful when reintroducing foods after a prolonged fast.
The first time I heard about refeeding syndrome was around the search and rescue the caved boys in northern Thailand because there was a discussion that they should not be given too much amount of food immediately after the rescue.
i don’t think you should ever eat 23 bananas in the same sitting

Hey. I've been really struggling with a restrictive ed relapse this year, and it's just really helpful, I guess, to hear you talk through this stuff. Thank you, Doctor.
You're dead on about people randomly suggesting/talking about fasting for literally no reason. I've sadly had to explain to several people that fasting like that can be extremely dangerous for diabetics on medication because of the risk of hypoglycemia (for context, I have diabetes). They generally don't like hearing it, though, because as you said, these people are often already healthy and young and believe there's no reason it could be a danger to /anyone/ because it's not dangerous to /them/
My grandparents who starved during the portuguese fascist dictatorship of Salazar used to call refeeding syndrome as food wrongly
In my own experience, I've seen the "intermittent fasting" branding devolve into disordered eating and body image issues in male friends. Take care of your bodies, everyone, but love yourselves, too.
I appreciate the nuanced perspective on fasting. Like everything there's no one-sentence answer to the metabolism, or one-size-fits-all answer, and abusing good things can often be as bad as casually using bad things

I’m an adult with ARFID and was hospitalized for it earlier this year. The treatment centers around me are geared towards eating disorders like anorexia, bulimia, & BED. They successfully got my weight up but didn’t focus on the harmful behaviors I had surrounding food because they simply didn’t know how to. They tried their best but I ended up experiencing refeeding edema after being released. I typically eat the same foods everyday and their isn’t much nutritional variety, I phased back to this disordered diet and my body could not handle it. At the peak of being full of fluid I weighed about 117, after 5 days it subsided and I was 114. I couldn’t walk for more than 15 minutes without my legs ballooning up. Thankfully I’ve added multivitamins and supplements drinks (ensure) to my diet to prevent this from happening again. Loved hearing you cover this topic <3
I was shocked by how much the body changes over the years. I expected aging and breaking down certain things but developing allergies you never had before?The way you exercise stops working for maintaining/losing weight? For some reason your body stops absorbing certain things as it once did?
Oh my! I used to be brilliant at fasting when I was a teen, as I was in an emotionally dysfunctional family setting, so I used anorexia to represent how unhappy I was. The lack of emotional support then made me use bulimia to release the stress. I remember having fasted for such a long time, then the stressful feeling made me need to do bulimia, so I started eating chocolate (let’s face it, nobody ever does bulimia with salad do they), and can you guess what happened!? After putting a little bit of chocolate in my mouth, had the most horrendous sensation come over my body, it was like all my veins were pulsating so hard with the most intense pain, then I felt loss of consciousness coming, I couldn’t stop it, and boom fell to the floor out cold. Oops.
as someone with chronic hypoglycemia (due to pcos) it's really scary when your sugar gets low and you don't realize it. it's even scarier when you don't have the opportunity to get anything to bring it back up, and you know you're gonna drop. please try to take care of yourself and keep signs of abnormal blood sugar in your mind
