@johnbishop ok I have a problem with this. The title of the link “fasting boosts your immunity” jumped out at because those of us with autoimmune diseases should NOT BE DOING ANYTHING TO BOOST OUR IMMUNE SYSTEM! (sorry for the shouting)

Our immune system is trying to hurt us. The very last thing someone with an immune system that has gone rogue is help it…

I’m done. Sorry for the screaming, John.

@SusanEllen66, It's OK to scream. All of us do it at times. I have a different take but it's just my opinion. Yes, our immune system can run amuck at times and some folks have it worse than others. I don't look at boosting the immune system as making it worse for whatever conditions we have. My take when someone says boosting the immune system is that it is more about getting it back to what it was designed to do for the human body and not to wreak havoc on our body. If you listen to the video, Dr Fung does a good job of explaining the how's and why's in fairly easy to understand language.

Hoping you have a pain free day.
