or is it fasting water, as in, stop drinking water?

>3 weeks of alternate-day fasting reduces body weight, body fat, and plasma insulin concentrations in both men and women while a diet of 500-600 calories on 2 of 7 days per week induces loss of abdominal fat, improves insulin sensitivity; and reduces blood pressure.

>a study in the june 5 issue of the Cell Stem Cell shows that cycles of prolonged fasting not only protect against immune system damage - a major side effect of chemotherapy -- but also induces immune system regeneration, shifting stem cells from a dormant state to a state of self-renewal.

holy shit i never thought of it this way.

thanks bro

>>41475720
Yes.

That image is a load of shit. The monkeys are fed the same kind of food with just an increase in calories while the human "equivalent" is obviously made up to push a narrative.

>That image is a load of shit

obviously you didnt read all of it. it clearly compares a "calorie restriction diet" to a diet that has twice the amount of calories.

>>41476068
Yea that's pretty stupid. If all they consider is calories according to their approximation for a male you could just one hot-n-ready every day instead of vegan salads

look at it now and tell me its bullshit

>Calorie restriction diet
>Rather than having similar foods that an average person would eat it uses shitty vegan foods for the "healthy" section
You're not reading between the lines. You could get the same calorie restriction by having smaller portions of the shit on the right.

>>41476113
no, i get what you're trying to say. the part at the bottom doesnt correlate at all with the part at the top though. the fact that whoever made the image was pushing a narrative doesnt invalidate the efficacy of calorie restriction

>>41476132
I agreed with the calorie restriction part. I disagree with the narrative being pushed behind the image.

>>41476143
same here, i probably should have cropped it out to start with. i'm not a vegan shill by any means

>>41476112
I'm not arguing with the study. The example of food is just very misleading. I am pro fasting

As weird as it sounds, these fad thread waves come from a few autists constantly creating threads. In this case it's the nu-tripfaggots you see here trying to become relevant, who else would have premade responses made up for such a bad premise

How many threads do you need for this? I suppose 3 per day isn't enough?

Literally, who?

wow you made >>41475785
look completely retarded

why would you include an article that looks at people with MS

>>41476310
So what are you trying to say here? If one isn't superior to the other, both are still effective. You're just creating pointless controversy
