I kind of fast every day for decades because I only eat dinner. But I was listening to an athlete talking about how he fasts for 5 days when his sport is on the offseason.

Do you fast? If so why? How long? Do you only drink water? What do you believe this can do for you?

Also this guy was saying it seems harder for people who go through sugar withdrawal. I just avoid sugar anyway because I don’t like the taste of anything with a lot of sugar in it. But sugar gets in from vegetables, sauces, etc.

If you decide to fast the first thing you want to do is to go keto first. Once you get the body burning fat, fasting is easy. Look up The Phoenix Protocol. You will want to dry fast for better autophagy. Found it. A great read on the subject. https://archive.org/details/the-phoenix-protocol-dry-fasting-by-a-dunning-pdfdrive I do a 72 hour dry fast twice a month. The first thing that I noticed is that my skin feels normal, smooth and not dried out.
