http://stm.sciencemag.org/node/186102.full http://stm.sciencemag.org/node/186102.full Interestingly some lysosomal enzymes are only activated after 10 days of fasting, today how many people fast for this length of time? This is super interesting. What is the source for the 10 days number - is it in the article you linked? Do you know where I can get full text - it is behind a paywall for me. I was always interested how long does it take to get most benefits out of fasting, but research on anything over 72 hours is very scarce. Edit: found it here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3608686/ http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3608686/ Animal studies again. Nothing wrong with that, I'm convinced that fasting has a range of benefits, but human studies would be just so much more interesting. Still looking for the source of the 10 day figure for lysosomal enzymes and humans.
