I've been experimenting with various types of fasting for a couple of years and am due to complete my first 5 day fast tomorrow, so it's great to hear the awesome Steve Maxwell championing the benefits of intermittent fasting. Its interesting he touches on how fasting can be the best treatment for a cold as it was a heavy cold that prompted me to start my longest fast so far. It cleared up within 2 days. He makes some excellent points about 'habit hunger' as a primary source of confusion around our dietary habits. So far its been a very positive experience for me and I consider it a very valuable tool for promoting health and longevity. Its also a fundamental paleo specific concept, so right up my street.
