What if the key to improving brain health lies in something as simple and powerful as silence and fasting? In today’s episode, I’m joined by Loren Lockman, an expert in water fasting, who’s helped thousands reverse chronic conditions by allowing their bodies to heal naturally.

Loren shares his journey of overcoming chronic illness with fasting, revealing how detoxification and proper hydration can restore health in ways modern medicine often overlooks. We discuss why fasting might be the most healing tool you’re not using, how hydration directly impacts cognitive function and aging, and Loren’s fascinating insights into the body’s natural healing abilities.

Tune in for a truly radical approach to health that challenges conventional wisdom. If you’re ready to explore fasting and its transformative potential for brain health, this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.

“What makes fasting so powerful is because it's the most efficient and effective way to get out of our incredible self-healing body's way–to allow it to do what only the body can do.”
