Low Insulin levels is the too often neglected benefits of Fasting.
Just today, the "news" was proclaiming the benefits of those in a study of those with gastric bypass surgery able to go off their Diabetes type 2 medicine, because of the body adjusting itself through diet to better handle insulin.
Low Insulin has so many health benefits, which is why low carb is beneficial as well as the lower insulin levels as a result of fasting.
Too many benefits can be found as the result of what and when you eat. Don't expect the medical community to always state what's best. I see St John's Wort as the most effective "medicine" I give my 80 year old parents with dementia. This herbal anti-depressant used often in Europe but pretty much neglected in US, and the high buck prescription meds don't do nearly as much. My Mom's neurologist thankfully gave approval that the St John's Wort could be helpful, while many others in the Alzheimer caretakers community simply follow the Dr. suggestions of only the prescription meds.
The medical "experts" that recommend 5 meals a day, I personally ignore since seeing the true benefits of fasting.
A fatty meal gives stick to itiveness to a meal of meat and green vegetables, while avoiding the "staff of life" BREAD is probably the best thing possible for good health. I had questioned Heather's rice recommendation because of high carbs but have seen first hand it as a great meal addition with fish and depend upon fasting to deliver benefits that a low carb person would likely avoid.
In short, better to believe the low insulin people.
