I hope there is some real substance to this study, if so it can help people like us enormously.

Interesting. I don't think I could do it, nor could my daughter with her tendency to low blood sugar.

I think it was Dr. Mercola that did an article recently, suggesting skipping breakfast, but I don't remember the details at the moment. I'll have to look it up again.

Shamelessly bumping because our immune systems need all the help they can get.

I have low blood sugar, and fasting never messed me up. Ok, after the fourth day, all I could think about was food, but I wasn't dizzy or anything.

How does fasting help you? Because of potential allergens, toxins, or what?

Personally, I think this only applies to people who are eating junk (packaged foods, GMO's) in their diet. A healthy diet would support the immune system, and fasting can be bad for those who have increased calorie requirements...
