Fasting clinic to reverse autoimmune

[Cathlo]

Interesting Article in UK Sat Times magazine re fasting reversing autoimmune illnesses. The reporter goes to Buchinger Wilhelmi clinic by Lake Constance in Germany for a week’s fast. Lots of info re Professor Valter Longo _ how if mice made to fast for three days, their bone marrow started to produce new stem cells. Occasional three day fasts over 6 months left the mice with completely rejuvenated immune systems.
A week’s stay at clinic cost 2k plus. However, Longo is waiting for final approval from America’s Food and Drug admistration for approval of his Fast Day Fast Mimicking Diet (FMD) _ a5 day programme of shakes and soups all from real food. Approval of FMD hoped for this autum. Would cost 165 pounds.

2013 Poor gut & low white blood cells. Jan 2014 RA symptoms. Diet - no gluten/dairy/nightshades/sugar. Started AP in Oct 2014. On Mino MTWTF. RA improved but still there. Many supplements.

I dont see how the FDA would be involved –if it is only food –no reason for the FDA

Dr. Mercola posts a lot on his website about intermittent fasting. I have been following it for over a year now and feel the health benefits. Once you get used to it, it’s not that difficult.
