Fasting to relieve or eliminate gastro problems?

@mmilich can I ask when you avoid eating when you do a fast? Do you eat breakfast and then stop eating for 18 hours? I am only 32 years old, so I feel like I can really explore my options here and do some serious fasting/risk taking. I have had stress induced stomach ulcers and reflux since 2010 because of my anxiety problems. Of course, this leads into the gut-brain connection. I do understand that a healthy gut creates a healthy brain so I am trying to do all I can to create a safe environment for my gut (probiotics, fasting, eating vegetables)

@hsroka15 You can ask me anything you want. You can also contact me through FB or email. How great you are taking charge of your health at such a young age. I don't know if you have been prescribed anything for your digestion issues, but beware. Certain phamaceuticals such as prilosec can delete bone mass. They don't tell you that when they prescribe the medication. I wish I had known sooner. As far as fasting, I skip breakfast and usually don't eat till after 12 noon. I then eat until four o'clock or sometimes six o'clock. FYI, I have plenty of energy i the morning and I exercise before I break my fast. I swim and do yoga. Sometimes both back to back before I eat. I'm never hungry in the morning and I have a very vigorous work out. I do break my fast at twelve usually with a salad. Then a fat and protein.
