Obviously, this resting of the intestines is not fully supported by deductive reasoning.Īnd my gut microbiota? They did not sign-up to starve to death with a 10 day or a 20 day fasts. My heart has been beating more than 71 years does it need a rest? Perhaps I should stop my heart from beating for 9 days in order to give it a rest. My intestinal tract has been working 24/7 for about 70 years and 11 months. ![]() The theory of fasting includes the idea that the intestinal tract needs a rest.

Even cancer cannot stand up against the long fast. ![]() But the long fasts go deeper and do more. ![]() I have no problem with the short fasts, called intermittent fasting. Long fasts are reported to go deeper, to do deeper “cleansing” than short fasts.
