This is a fact. ^^^

Also, not eating for one day doesn't put a body into a detoxifying state. If I stopped eating for one day, my body would not detoxify; systems don't work that way.

There are times when it may be appropriate to withhold food after prolonged vomiting or diarrhea - but that's completely different, and it's about allowing the system to rest, it's not about fasting. Even so, I personally have never withheld food even during those times as I find that nutritional support is key when the body is under assault, it just might be a different kind of nutrition than usual.
