Memorable Quotes:

"Fasting can be really great for creating a break for your body and for your gut specifically, where you're not constantly digesting foods. It's also a really great opportunity to support your body with detox."

"If you're not eating something for a period of time, it can be a major stressor on the body, especially if you're also working or you're running around or you're doing errands or you just have a lot on the go and you are in more of that stressed out state."
