Ed Jones and Dr. Mercola

“One of the most powerful metabolic interventions you can do is fasting. Historically we’ve been doing it for time immemorial. It’s a part of every major religion in the world and has been for many, many centuries. It wouldn’t persist if there wasn’t some value. Aside from the spiritual perspective, there’s an enormous physical benefit.”-Dr. Joseph Mercola
