For me I believe more articles on fasting and healing for weight loss should be offered.

More calories is not what we need especially as we move into our older stage of life.

Nothing dramatic just information about the benefits you get missing a meal one day a week.

Digestion issues are a big problem for the young and old these days. Eating constantly is not the answer.

The stomach like any motor needs to be turned off and rested.

Just my thoughts.

This article was written for those taking weight loss medications such as Wegovy or Zepbound, in which decreased appetite and nausea can be a common side effect when starting or increasing the dose.

Here are three articles from Mayo Clinic written on fasting:

2. https://mcpress.mayoclinic.org/living-well/wait-what-youre-struggling-to-lose-weight-7-tips-to-consider/
