Long Term Fasting

Categories:

Diagnosed with CML in 2012, been on Sprycel since 2013. Deep down, I've always believed there is a way to cure any disease unless you are literally on death's door. Over the past four years, I've been researching and reading books on Fasting. One by Upton Sinclair called the Fasting Cure, one called Perfect Health: How To Get It And How To Keep It and another more recent one by Dr August Dunning about Dry Fasting called the Phoenix Protocol. The first two were written over a hundred years ago. I've done a lot of 2-3 days fast in that time but never a prolonged one or a dry one over 2 and a half days. There is a Doctor in Russia, Dr. Filinov who does dry fasting to heal people with serious disease.

I really want to try a prolonged water fast of 20-30 days or a dry fast of 10 days, but haven't gotten the time off work yet to attempt. Just curious as to if anyone here has ever done it.

Hi jay. Read John diamonds book. It’s called “ snake oil and other preoccupations “. Trust in proven science and western medicine before going down the fasting route. It don’t work my friend.

Can’t see where fasting would be snake oil as no one makes any money from it. There is nothing sold. It’s just using the energy the body normally uses for digestion for healing instead.

Look up, Professor Valter Longo PhD, he is a fasting expert located in Southern California. I believe he’s connected to the Keck school of medicine at USC in Los Angeles . one of his books is called Fasting Cancer. He’s been studying fasting for a very long time and is well known and up-to-date.

I urge you to read the research on this (look for peer reviewed medical journals). There are benefits to fasting but dry fasting more than a couple of days sounds potentially dangerous.
