is fasting good for health? i am taking a nutrition class right now. today the instructor said that fasting is not good/beneficial for health, which i think is kind of odd. i've done some research online regarding fasting before, and the info. i gathered was that fasting is in fact good for your health, and if you fast one day a week, it can be really good for you. that makes sense to me because i think fasting gives your system a break. when animals are sick, they tend to fast and it seems to help them heal. does anyone have good info. on this topic? i need to do some research again, last time i looked up this info. was a couple of years ago. |
