I find it hard to say "you should try this or try that" but it is a bit easier to say "these are the positives I experienced". (if that makes any sense at all?) So far, and maybe it has been 7 or 8, but I have had only positive experiences from fasting. If added up all the fasts the weight loss was minimal but it was still some weight loss. The first couple three probably made more change in body composition than how I tipped the scale that week. The energy levels were crazy. I still struggle to wrap my head around how 'no food equals more energy'. I can say all the scientific words I learned getting my Batchelor's by Google and my Master's by You Tube but the first fifty years I was dispositioned that food equaled energy and had to be a part of that equation. This has been a pleasant surprise. I feel like it has given my immune system a boost, maybe even say making carnivore all the more effective. I wish I could do blood tests the day before and the day after each fast and then lay those numbers over top of one another. Fasting is not like the magic pill, no more so than carnivore, but the two of them together, with the gym tossed in the mix, has improved my health by leaps and bounds in the last 14 months. The most recent one did surprise me because of the drop in weight which goes unexplained as the fasts have all been pretty similar. I went six days and it was so much easier than "six days' sounds. I have seen the time when six hours without eating would have bene a real challenge. it is most definitely worth a try. Scott
