The magic of fasting lies in its ability to activate autophagy, the body's natural cellular recycling process where damaged components are broken down and reused to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and clear out accumulated waste. Essentially you are detoxifying at a deep cellular level.
Extended fasting, particularly beyond 24-48 hours, shifts the body into ketosis, producing ketones from fat stores as an alternative fuel source. Unlike glucose, which can drive inflammation and oxidative stress when in excess, ketones provide a cleaner, more efficient energy for the brain and body, enhancing mental clarity, sparing glucose for essential functions.
Happy Healing!
Much Love, Lynn
