In this video, I want to talk about the benefits of fasting and intermittent fasting for your immune system.

The benefits of fasting are amazing—especially if you can do a 72-hour fast. Most people will need to build up to a fast this long by starting with a 48-hour fast. It’s a good idea to do a 48- or 72-hour fast periodically—maybe once every month or two.

The benefits of fasting on the immune system have to do with literally growing a new immune system. Here’s what it helps with:
1. Boosts white blood cell count, including phagocytes, T-cells, and B-cells.
2. Strongly surpasses inflammation by supporting cytokines
3. Decreases PKA
4. Kills old and damaged white blood cells through autophagy
