Recently there have been a vast study of the effects of fasting, and its effects on our health.

Ive seen a few studies come out with some interesting results, especially the new "5:2" diet that seems to have hugely beneficial effects on the body.

I wanna know your thoughts on these forms of dieting. Would you participate? do you believe the hype?

I don't believe in any of these so called diets , but I do fast every year in March for a period of 19 days and I have observed its benefits all my life. It has a great cleansing effect on the body ,getting rid of old fat deposits as well as giving the digestive system a rest. However I do not do it to lose weight, I mostly do it as an spiritual exercise which also has the physical benefits above.
