My wife does intermittent fasting and swears by it. I’m actually fasting today. I can do 24 hours easily, but I’m shooting for 36. Not sure I have the discipline though.

Some years ago I did a 4-day fast as an experiment. After the first 24 hours or so hunger was mostly gone and I felt great. Doing 24 hours now is easier after having done this.

If you think historically, our hunter-gatherer ancestors probably went without food many times in their lives when it was scarce for whatever reason. The human body does amazingly well without being constantly fed.

How often do you do 24 hr?

Not too often, but mostly during the season of Lent. But I guess I do intermittent fasting more than I think. I regularly skip meals if I feel I ate too much previous day.
