RE: No longer an option

in #steemexclusive15 hours ago

I have done a couple of 3 day water fasts this year and REALLY enjoyed them.

The health benefits alone are worth it :)

Sort:  

I don't deny the benefits of fasting, or veganism, or raw foodism. However, I believe they also place a great deal of stress on the body when they are not part of one's regular lifestyle. I know people who observe religious fasts every year. They experience it as a form of punishment, this deprivation of their favorite foods, and barely make it through those days; then, they start eating to compensate, which puts immense stress on the body.
On the other hand, I’m not a fan of deprivation, especially when I don’t know how much longer I have to live. But my perspective on all this is probably quite flawed, which is why I still haven’t committed to something like that.😃

Fair enough each to their own, fasting is something that i enjoy.

I think there are a lot people in this world that would benefit from fasting buts that's just my opinion.
