The Complete Guide to Fasting

Heal Your Body Through Intermittent, Alternate-Day, and Extended Fasting

De: Jimmy Moore, Dr. Jason Fung

Narrado por: Jimmy Moore

Thousands of books have been written about the latest and greatest diets that will help people lose weight and improve health. But a key element in any successful nutritional health program is a tried-and-true method that most people haven't thought about - yet it could be revolutionary for taking health to the next level. This ancient secret is fasting.

Fasting is not about starving oneself. When done right, it's an incredibly effective therapeutic approach that produces amazing results regardless of diet plan. In fact, Toronto-based nephrologist Dr. Jason Fung has used a variety of fasting protocols with more than 1,000 patients, with fantastic success. In The Complete Guide to Fasting, he has teamed up with international best-selling author and veteran health podcaster Jimmy Moore to explain what fasting is really about, why it's so important, and how to fast in a way that improves health. Together, they make fasting as a therapeutic approach both practical and easy to understand.

The Complete Guide to Fasting explains:

• Why fasting is actually good for health
• Who can benefit from fasting (and who won't)
• The history of fasting
• The various ways to fast: intermittent, alternate-day, and extended fasting
• What to expect when starting to fast
• How to track progress while fasting
• The weight loss effects of fasting
• How to ward off potential negative effects from fasting

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Book flows way better at these speeds due to the narrators slow over articulated reading. Otherwise good info.

Your Fasting Challenge Bible

If you are part of a group that has accepted a fasting challenge in fundraising for a cause, this is the book for you. Everything you need to know and understanding about fasting is in here. And it is very easy to understand. The book was so interesting I followed up with his second book, which is essential reading if you are human that eats. By reading both books you will learn how to control every organ in your body through your mouth. You will also gain the insight necessary to learn what it is you put in your mouth and what it does to your body. The hidden sugars and processed foods and their effects. How government and industry push certain items on to your table that are poison and should not be in anyone's body.

very informative and educational

being recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, i knew there was a way to reverse it. i wasn't getting an answers from my doctor, so i did my own research . I'm going to beat diabetes!?

Great content but . . .

If you could sum up The Complete Guide to Fasting in three words, what would they be?

Easy to understand

Who was your favorite character and why?

Not applicable here

Did Jimmy Moore do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

The narration was the weakest part of this audible book. I could never tell whether it was his own commentary or if he was quoting for Dr. Fung or someone else. A professional narrator would have been a better choice.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Non-fiction dietary book, nothing extreme here.

Any additional comments?

Overall great content. A bit of a different take on the Obesity Code, which I liked. Certain subject matter was repeated several times throughout, which made it easier to remember later, so in this case it was a good thing and I suspect intentional.

Awesome!!

This books was very informative. As a personal train and a fitness guy I was stuck in the idea that everyone should eat six meals a day. I was wrong! This book has shed new light on the way I help people achieve there goals. This book will be recommended!

Excellent audiobook!!!

After listening to this book completely, I know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, there is a lot to work on and I know that everything is possible if I want to recover my health, everything was explained in an understandable way, thank you!!!

What a thorough book on fasting

Everything you ever wanted to know about fasting and the best part is it’s all done through Qualified doctors with amazing results for their patients. Almost everyone can fast with amazing results

The Complete Guide to Fasting

Would have strongly preferred the audio book of Jason Fung was the narrator. Hearing Jimmy Moore read Fung’s words and experiences made it confusing. The content was still interesting but without Fung’s charm and sense of humor a lot of magic was lost which is unfortunate.

Great read

Encouraged about fasting after listening to Dr Fungs book. I feel prepared to jump in with both feet now.

Excellent book - Medically Sound

Very well written on benefits of fasting all backed by medical science. What I really liked was all examples where from actual first hand results with humans in his medical practice and diet clinic.

Only negative was the performance - producer should have invested in pop filter for mic and a program to even out the sound.
