I don’t meant for weight loss, I mean health benefits as in autophagy, clearing out toxins, giving your organs a break type stuff

    Ya I was hoping for some people who do 48+ hour fasts but it’s still interesting to see how people’s bodies react to shorter periods

      I’m the commenter who eats once a day. Not sure, if that’s the information you’re looking for, but I could easily do 48 hours without negative impact on my well being. I don’t do “real” fasting, but my body is really forgoving in the meantime. I don’t feel hangry or tired. If I can’t get my food in time, I’ll just get it later. Sometimes it feels like a tiny superpower compared to other people who sometimes seem to really suffer in such situations.

        I’m still interested if IF has noticeable benefits but would like to know a little more about multi-day fasts where someone depletes their glycogen and is in full ketosis.
