This is a link to an article which talks about the positive effects of fasting. It is based on a TED Talk which is linked at the bottom of the article. I haven't watched it, yet, but I fully intend to later.

I'm looking forward to watching it! I just did a pubmed search on his research. His alzheimer's study was done in mice - just a caveat to be aware of. Personally, I love fasting. It has given me much better control over my hypoglycemic tendencies.
