    Personal choice. Personally I think fasting is counter intuitive to the way our biology is but each to their own.

    since its been pretty much proven to have masses of health benefits in mamals how is it counter productive?

    Never said it was bad, I said counter intuitive, if you are looking to lose fat, starving yourself is counter intuitive, as cavemen we used to go through times of famine, our bodies are designed to hold on for dear life the fat stores in our bodies in times of famine, hence counter intuitive.

    So the body stores fat incase of famine, then when famine hits it saves the fat?
    That goes against nature, feast and famine is how we evolved

    I think it can be done. I do love a yummy green juice or smoothie. I'm not much of a faster.
