Our anceint ancestors basiclly just snacked all day, roots berries, leaves some fruit and every once and awhile someone would kill a deer. It was probily common for us to go for days to a week with only tiny amounts of food or water. This whole 3 meals a day thing is a new thing.

We need a fresh constant supply of water. Im not saying drink copious amounts of it, but your body should naturally crave it anyway. But yes, without refrigerators it wasnt unusual for people to go days at a time without eating. That being said, children who are growing shouldnt do it, they turn into a lord of the flies scenario when they go more than a few hours. People who are diabetic/pre diabetic or have other health issues need to be careful as well.

Ive been intermittent fasting since I was 16, over 2 decades now. Started out because I was to proud to claim a free lunch for being poor. But I felt better when doing it. Finally did catch up to me recently. When I got covid I ended up nearly phosphorous deplete, which seems to be a common symptom in covid admissions.

I stopped drinking pop because I thought it was giving me gout, didnt drink it for 12 months. Did nothing to stop the gout, turns out my beta blocker was likely giving me the gout because I have an acute kidney injury from a hypertensive episode that lasted at least 7 months. Not only was it giving me gout, it was depriving my body of phosphorous, no wonder my neck started hurting around the time I quit drinking the pop. I tried to drink milk but have a hard time digesting it because of a tick bite a decade back.

I say likely because its been 6 months and I still havent been able to get a Canadian doctor to do anything more than prescribe blood tests for the phosphorous which is slowly going up(because im drinking pop again..).... I tried supplements, didnt do anything to boost my levels so for whatever reasons its just not getting in my system like its supposed to. Calcium is ok, blood sugar is ok, kidney function is ok, vitamin d is ok. Doctors just scratch their heads. I feel they are betting that I was either an alcoholic, have terminal cancer, or itll just spontaneously go away on its own. God damned idiots.

Intermittent fasting is not a magical cure all, I seen some girl in the r/con board asking about doing it so she could lose a few lbs. That's a horrible reason to do it. People who are worried about their sugars, cholesterol, etc, who want to try and control their conditions without medications, this is definitely something to try.

For otherwise healthy people, intermittent fasting is about the only way to save a few dollars anymore :/. How bad are things going to get before they boot the new economy in 2030 I wonder.

Considering that for decades mainstream scientists said it was unhealthy and dont do it. There were not many studies done. But considering the explosion in interest in the last decade which is funny to me for some reason, some of the studies that have been done recently show it can definitely reverse the effects of pre diabetes and a few other things like cholesterol. I dont think there is any real studies done on the effects of metabolism.

But in my mind, if your not eating, your slowing down your metabolism. (they say this is bad.) but it seems to me that the slower your heart beats, and the slower your cells burn fuel, the less wear and tear your putting on your internals. There is a common theory that a heart only has so many beats. So seems to reason again that less beats means a longer life.

Would make sense why mainstream information would tell us that fasting and slow metabolism is "bad". They do not want us living past retirement age anyway. Once we can no longer work for the system, we are considered useless, disposable.

All I can say for sure is. I have been fasting for over two decades (like I said in another comment). And everytime I go to buy my weed from the store I get carded. One time years ago when I used to have money to drink liquor, I had an asian lady who was shocked I was old. She legit told me I must have really good genetics lol.

Half the time the people carding me will make a comment about my age and when I was still able to hold a full time job my coworkers would always express disbelief that I was old as I was. Is it the genetics or the fasting, or a little bit of both. I dont really know.

Doesn't fasting cause aging

a) temporary living within the ongoing process of dying implies aging...the less the living resist; the quicker they die.

b) fasting implies progression by willingly ignoring to resist (adaptation to hunger) being moved towards death. Fasting is used to learn/teach oneself about the differences between need (hunger to sustain life) and want (appetite tempting towards death) as defined by responding free will of choice in-between.

c) those who comprehend hunger don't require fasting; yet the temptation of appetite cannot be avoided; only resisted as free will of choice. Fall for appetite too often and fastening can get you back to balance; but it isn't a justification for ignoring need (hunger) for want (appetite).

I have out of just natural habit found myself eating about 1 to 2 meals a day and usually at different times I get hungry as it's about 10-16 hours between meals usually. However I do snack during the meals nuts, berries, and fruit or cheese if I feel a craving. Usually it's not hunger but satisfying a particular sensation.

I have found my hunger levels are a lot lower if they do show up, I tend to not eat as much when I do eat, and I am still able to get through work or a whole day of exercise without a meal until dinner time.

Fasting makes you dumber, don't do it. Just eat healthier.

Most health issues can be fixed...

  • FIX, verb transitive [Latin firus, figo.] - "to make stable; to set or establish immovably".

The parasitic few suggest the rhetorical term "fix" to tempt the many to ignore being form (life) within flow (inception towards death) aka temporary living within the ongoing process of dying; hence existing within the ever changing moment (um) of motion.

Suggested immovably represents the inversion of perceptibly being within motion.

HEALTH, noun - "sound state of mind" implies resonance (perceiving) with source of sound (perceivable), hence adaptation (choice) to origin (balance); not to the suggested choices by others.
