I'll give you an example. You took my comment too literally and completely missed the point.

Depends on your definition of red meat - grass-fed or grain-fed? Two completely different animals. Literally.

> Researchers are working to develop a test for people still alive so they can begin to study the disease more comprehensively. What more is there to study? Getting knocked in the head for years is bad for you. Do we really need scientis

My 2018 prediction is that a terror attack (or other high profile event, say a massive human trafficking ring bust) of some sort will get blamed on "Bitcoin financing" and this will be used as pretext to go after one or more US ex

And people expect Amazon to announce Bitcoin acceptance any day now... lol.

2018 will be the year that a major US exchanger gets raided by the FBI/SEC.

I raised this concern in a comment last week. We are going to see more instances of this. Remember how in the movies they break into a bank manager's house and hold the family captive while someone goes with the manager to open the ban

You are being naive. Who do you expect to do the "cutting edge" research to confirm fasting can cure Crohn's? Do you honestly not realize this is career suicide? There is zero benefit to researchers funded by the government o

I appreciate your response. > None of this means we shouldn't try to help people where appropriate. But the way we go about trying to help people makes every bit of difference. Agree that it makes a difference, which is why my style

This. I book quite a few hotel stays throughout the year and you will definitely get perks and resort credits when booking directly. Just ask for it. They don't want you hanging up the phone and going back to Kayak which may lead you t

Haha, yep, you are spot on.

I'm curious if you don't mind sharing, how long was your longest water fast?
315.
by aviv 9y ago
Also - why shouldn't I be certain that water fasting IS helpful and likely to cure many diseases? All the evidence I have and been exposed to shows precisely that. I'm not saying people should start it tomorrow. All I say is - res

by aviv 9y ago
I have not seen or heard today of any evidence that says water fasting is either (a) harmful or (b) not useful. Do you have any sources? It is well known that fasts need to be from a few days to 40 days. I'm sure you've come acros

Your last statement makes no sense. I already started with the man in the mirror. That man is arthritis-free since day 20 of a water fast 6 years ago. That man plays soccer every weekend, after not being able to for many years. I made my ow

It's not about getting converts. That's the first problem here - that getting someone interested in a water fast as remedy to a disease is considered "cultish", some crazy conspiracy or religion. Seriously, have the phar

Thanks for your feedback. As I said elsewhere in this thread, my presentation does appear a bit harsh when done in a comment section such as this one vs. how I am in real life. I don't know if it makes sense to change it. It may seem c

Can you please point to the study that shows extended water fasts carry certain health risks? Posted some more links for you in another comment.

Seriously - why would someone like you be so opposed to water fasting? Think about it for one minute - patients go through extreme treatments like chemo, radiation, Remicade, whatever - anything to get better, right? Why is exposing your bo

by aviv 9y ago
Please what? Do you have proof that you know of someone who water fasted for extended period of time and was not cured or was harmed? Because I DO have the opposite proof. So your empty statements and insinuations is just trolling.

by aviv 9y ago
I am not aware of any study (that has been made public, remember they always have that option at the end) by a pharmaceutical company or university that was set out to test whether water fasting for 5+ days is beneficial in treating or curi

I agree though, by the time a patient makes it to a traditional physician for advice it's pretty much too late in the game. What do you expect from doctors that accumulated a total ~20 hours of nutritional education in their many years

Look into research and patient treatment results by the likes of Dr Herbert Shelton. There is quite a bit of literature to support caloric restriction and in particular water fasting as ideal treatment option for many diseases once you filt

Effectively a PCP is a load balancer for the pharmaceutical industry, directing consumers to the appropriate pill pusher.

by aviv 9y ago
I don't, funny thing is I see it exactly the opposite, the traditional medical treatment and attitude towards alternative options is preventing those with serious disease from following through. 2 weeks is the minimum I've seen. S
