Thank you for sharing your experience. Your points resonate with me. The only clarification, proper fasting did not put me in starvation. It might make some people weaker if they have underlying health conditions and their bodies are not fat adapted. During fasting growth hormone skyrocket and protect the body. For course more than seven days could be risky for some and any long term fasting for some people might require medical supervision. I am glad you benefited from from your regimen.
