The Complete Guide to Fasting: Heal Your Body Through Intermittent, Alternate-Day, and Extended Fasting by Jason Fung

"We are wired for feast and famine, not feast, feast, feast."

 

A very good book as an introduction and a guide to fasting. Explains the benefits, debunks the myths, shares tips and  experiences from a lot of people who healed various conditions through fasting.

You will learn how to conduct many types of fasts, starting from short 18 hours ones (hardly a fast) all the way up to 14 day fasts (and beyond possibly).

I give a 9/10 because I missed explanations of the spiritual benefits, but as it is a book written by a medical expert, this was clearly not the purpose of the book.

 

If you are interested in trying out fasting, pick this book up!
