There feels like a deep truth to the constant assault of man-hand compounds in relation to our health. I recently started fasting every other day, and I've noticed odd issues just clearing up on their own.
I'd wager the down-votes related to the claims around curing cancer, but there is reason to pursue this. I'm self experimenting on myself and wife since the wife has an auto-immune issue (MS). She was on the anti-gluten train way before it was fashionable since there is an immediate cause and effect for her without celiacs.
We really should question all of our practices and values.
- kaiju0 5y agoI think bodies are not meant to always be processing food. We are designed for downtime to process the backlog. The body would get to nagging issues if given opportunity to do so. I also think this has a lot to do with our cancer rates.
- samatman 5y agoI'd say that a less fraught way of putting this is that we have adapted to feast-and-famine since that was the ancestral condition of the species. So I agree with you that, at least for me, eating less than I want to (or nothing) much of the time, and eating a lot occasionally, feels better than constantly feeding myself more calories (carbs especially!) than I need. But most people on this site, myself included, don't think we were 'designed' at all.
