Hey guys, today we're going to talk about the eight major benefits from prolonged fasting.

Now prolonged fasting is where you'd go 48, 72 hours or longer, sometimes a week, sometimes 21

days, sometimes even longer. There's some interesting benefits that occur when you do this.

The body goes into this survival mode. It's kind of like a physiological vacation for your organs,

especially for your digestive system because every time you eat, you kind of like shut down

that system. The people that eat frequently, let's say you're doing three meals plus two snacks,

never have a chance to get these amazing benefits. Let's start with number one. You actually

regrow your brain cells. Not the entire brain, but very specific parts of the brain,

including hippocampus, parts of the brain stem, and other parts as well. So that's really cool.

I mean, how many of you could use some extra brain cells? So the part of the hippocampus that's

regenerated has to do with memory. There's like a relay switch in there that helps you get access

to your database, your file cabinet of memories. So you're able to regrow that structure of the brain

to improve memory. That's really, really cool. Okay, number two, increase mitochondria.

The mitochondria are the energy factories of the body. So you're going to find that your energy

goes straight to the roof. Incredible amounts of energy when you don't eat. Well, remember,

you're burning your fat. So you are eating, you're just not eating dietary calories. Number three,

atophagy. This is a condition in your body whereby it recycles old damaged proteins. Okay.

And other things like microbes in damaged mitochondria. So it's kind of a good self-cleaning action

going on. And you recycle these proteins into new proteins to build new tissue.

This is the epitome of anti-aging. But in order to get in this, you want to do prolonged fasting.

Now, I do recommend doing intermittent fasting once a month or once every other month. Or even like

four times a year, it would be great. All right. Next one is enhanced stem cell production.
