Jason Fung - 2016
But a key element in any successful nutritional health program is a tried-and-true method that most people haven't thought about—yet it could be revolutionary for taking health to the next level.

In The Complete Guide to Fasting he has teamed up with international bestselling author and veteran health podcaster Jimmy Moore to explain what fasting is really about, why it's so important, and how to fast in a way that improves health. Together, they make fasting as a therapeutic approach both practical and easy to understand. The Complete Guide to Fasting explains:
why fasting is actually good for health
who can benefit from fasting (and who won't)
the history of fasting
the various ways to fast: intermittent, alternate-day, and extended fasting
what to expect when starting to fast
how to track progress while fasting
the weight loss effects of fasting
how to ward off potential negative effects from fasting
