“Fasting is an effective and efficient way of reversing and normalizing blood pressure.” Today’s guest is Dr. Alan Goldhamer who is one of the world’s leading experts on medically supervised, water-only fasting. In 1984 he founded and became Director of TrueNorth Health Center in Santa Rosa, California; since then, he has supervised the fasting and care of more than 20,000 patients. It is the largest facility in the world specializing in medically supervised, water-only fasting and one of the premier training facilities for doctors to gain certification in the supervision of therapeutic fasting. This conversation was so powerful that we had to split it up into 2 episodes. In this first episode Lewis and Dr. Alan Goldhamer discuss the biggest benefits to water-only fasting, the best way to fast from the comfort of your own home, how one of Goldhamer’s patient’s was able to overcome cancer through fasting and diet change, what the “pleasure trap” is and how to avoid it, and so much more!
