Publisher's Summary
Thousands of books have been written about the latest and greatest diets that will help people lose weight and improve health. But a key element in any successful nutritional health program is a tried-and-true method that most people haven't thought about - yet it could be revolutionary for taking health to the next level. This ancient secret is fasting.
Fasting is not about starving oneself. When done right, it's an incredibly effective therapeutic approach that produces amazing results regardless of diet plan. In fact, Toronto-based nephrologist Dr. Jason Fung has used a variety of fasting protocols with more than 1,000 patients, with fantastic success. In The Complete Guide to Fasting, he has teamed up with international best-selling author and veteran health podcaster Jimmy Moore to explain what fasting is really about, why it's so important, and how to fast in a way that improves health. Together, they make fasting as a therapeutic approach both practical and easy to understand.
The Complete Guide to Fasting explains:
- Why fasting is actually good for health
- Who can benefit from fasting (and who won't)
- The history of fasting
- The various ways to fast: intermittent, alternate-day, and extended fasting
- What to expect when starting to fast
- How to track progress while fasting
- The weight loss effects of fasting
- How to ward off potential negative effects from fasting

Today, most doctors, dietitians, and even diabetes specialists consider type 2 diabetes to be a chronic and progressive disease - a life sentence with no possibility of parole. But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this paradigm-shifting book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible. Writing with clear, persuasive language, he explains why conventional treatments that rely on insulin or other blood-glucose-lowering drugs can actually exacerbate the problem, leading to significant weight gain and even heart disease.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 10
Leading health blogger Jimmy Moore and researcher and internist Dr. Eric C. Westman join forces again to explain the powerful therapeutic effects of a ketogenic diet—one that combines a customized carbohydrate restriction, moderation of protein intake, and real food-based fats—which is emerging in the scientific literature as a means for improving a wide range of diseases, from Type 2 diabetes to Alzheimer's and more. Simply eating a low-carb diet alone isn't enough, and Moore and Westman tell you why. Have you looked at a low-carb diet simply as a means to lose weight? What if you learned that combining a low-carb nutritional approach with a high fat intake produces a powerful therapeutic effect on a wide variety of health conditions that most people think requires medication to control? That’s what Keto Clarity is all about. Jimmy Moore, a leading low-carb diet blogger and podcaster, has reunited with his Cholesterol Clarity co-author Dr. Eric C. Westman, a practicing internist and low-carb diet researcher, to bring you the crystal-clear information you need to understand what a ketogenic diet is and why it may be the missing element in your pursuit of optimal health. This book includes exclusive interviews from twenty of the world's foremost authorities from various fields bringing their depth of expertise and experience using this nutritional approach. Moore and Westman explain why ketosis is normal and how this nutritional approach is being used therapeutically by many medical professionals. You will find a step-by-step guide to help you produce more ketones and track your progress, real life success stories, and more. The solid evidence for nutritional ketosis in dealing with many of the chronic health problems of our day is presented, including but not limited to: epilepsy, Type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, polycystic ovarian syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome.

For decades we have been taught that fat is bad for us, carbohydrates better, and that the key to a healthy weight is eating less and exercising more. Yet despite this advice, we have seen unprecedented epidemics of obesity and diabetes. Taubes argues that the problem lies in refined carbohydrates, like white flour, easily digested starches, and sugars, and that the key to good health is the kind of calories we take in, not the number.

It's not you; it's your schedule. Does it sound like magic? It's not. We've all heard of circadian rhythms - those biological processes that give us jet lag and make us night owls or early birds. But few of us know just how profoundly these diurnal patterns affect our overall health. Bad habits - like skipping meals, squeezing in workouts, working late into the night and then trying to catch up on sleep during the weekend - disrupt our natural cycles. A growing body of research on chronobiology reveals just how sensitive the human body is to these rhythms all the way down to the genetic level.

Fast for a healthy you, this book will help you!
Fasting: a nightmare or heaven's ride?
The answer to this question has been quite a journey. After been in this journey for more than almost 2 years, one thing I can surely say is, staying informed and hydrated is THE Key.
I have used my body as an experimental ground for almost everything. Anything that interests me, I try it out on myself. By the virtue of being a healthy individual, this has relatively been easy for me and my body mostly supports me through such experiments. Had I not been healthy and still did those experiments, will I get through easily? god knows and hence I say, this is an area where proper research and information is necessary before experimenting and this book provides you that. Bursts a lot of myths and increases your confidence in your ability to fast.
I started with different kinds of fast with different intensities and frequencies. It was hard initially because I was doing it with lack of information and that's when my interest grew in the field. I have suffered through headaches until a friend suggested me to drink enough water. I fainted and felt dizzy many a times until a friend informed me of missing salt. My stomach went upset too. And add to this the common misconception of, your body can't handle hunger and hence will feel loss of energy. Well psychological if you believe this, you feel it then. So did I. I desperately needed expert advice and this book has came to the rescue.
This book prepares you, with all those advices, correction of misconceptions backed by science and a lot of motivation by fasting all stars stories. Reading through this book I added a milestone to my fasting journey by smoothly doing a 36 hour water fast. When I finish this book, I've already successful repeated it 4 times, that marks a month and the experience has been far better than my early fasts and broke all fears that existed when I started. I encourage everyone to read it so they understand the intricacies and break myths. A big hurdle I've faced in my fasting journey is the discouragement by my friends and family and that comes from all the misconceptions that are widespread. It's hard to convince them and I think this book could be a great help there too.
