RE: My Life-Changing Deep Detox Journey: Part 2

in #health7 years ago

I love to use intermittent fasting as a part of my approach to listening to my body. As I have refocused my diet to include a better balance of nutrients through mostly whole foods, sensations of hunger are infrequent unless I begin to approach a 14-18 hr window. Even then, with proper electrolyte balance, I would likely be able to extend further.

Our bodies have the potential to be so flexible to our ways of eating, but often are beaten down by the chemically-laden and nutrition-stripped standard western diet. Once we get into this habit of optimized nutrition, we always wonder how we even managed the former way of eating.

It's so true. I've done some experimenting with intermittent fasting, always been a great experience. I'd like to deepen my practice with it. I feel my body naturally calling for that and often honor long periods of time without eating.
