- DoreenMichele 6y agoI sort of think of it like "maintenance downtime." It was my son that first suggested to me it helps by freeing up immune cells and letting them concentrate on other things for a bit and I think that makes a lot of sense. I also suspect that dropping your blood sugar levels low enough, long enough helps starve some invaders. We are bigger than the bacteria in our system. We can survive for a bit without those resources. Maybe some of them can't.
