S1E7: Have We Taken Fasting Too Far?
About this episode
Fasting continues to be one of the top health and nutrition trends in the world. Why wouldn't it be? Weight loss, disease prevention and reversal, longevity benefits, and the list goes on. As someone who has practiced fasting and prescribes it in the clinic, there is a dark side to fasting that is not being discussed. I discuss some of the following topics in this episode:
- If fasting is medicine, what's the safety, efficacy and toxicity profile?
- 6 categories of high risk fasters
- Fasting in women and vulnerable populations
- Redefining a successful fast beyond weight loss
- Social media impact of fasting
- Fasting health inequities: A Case Study
