Medical Opinion
 

 


These excerpts come down clearly in favour of fasting, as you would expect from our interest in the subject.

It is also true that there are other physicians and dieticians who either see no real benefits to be derived from fasting or, see it simply as another passing 'fad diet'.

N. Yashiro, M.D.

"Fasting has been repeatedly observed to alleviate neuroses, anxiety and depression. It appears from these studies that fasting improves our ability to adapt to frustration and external stress. One Japanese clinic fasted 382 patients with psychosomatic disease, with a success rate of 87%."

"Clinico-Psychological & Pathophysiological Studies On Fasting Therapy," (SAPPORO MEDICAL JOURNAL: 1986) pp. 125-136.
