Hello!

The picture titled “How inflammation effects the body” mentions autism. My daughter is 2 and recently diagnosed with autism. How can I help reduce inflammation with a toddler?? Is there something she can naturally take to help with the inflammation since she cannot fast for more than 12 hrs a day (while she’s sleeping – 6pm to 6am)?

Thanks!

In reply to Dr. Jockers. I have not seen any reference to osteoarthritis. Only rheumatoid arthritis. With my arthritis it’s bone on bone. The damage is done already. Do the same principles apply?

Hey Debra, there are a number of factors as to why you are still in pain and haven’t lost the final 7 lbs. One thing to consider would be if you are possibly eating a food you may have a sensitivity too. Here is a helpful article on how to test this out https://drjockers.com/food-sensitivity-testing/

I have been doing the warrior fast everyday for two weeks. No pain relief for my arthritis in my fingers, no weight loss. I am not hungry. When I eat, it is all organic according to your protocol. I drink all the 64 0z. Of water. I get 8 hours sleep. I walk 2 miles a day. What am I doing wrong? Four years ago I was diagnosed with insulin resistant, syndrome X. I have been working with my diet ever since. I lost 75 pounds with eating clean, Keto and intermittent fasting 1 meal a day. For the past 4 years. It has been slow, not always perfect, but pretty darn close to it. The past two weeks I fasted 21 hours everyday. I get my electrolytes as well. I am at a quandary as to why still the inflammation and pain? I still have some omen tump that needs to go and wee love handles. I am 68, 5’3 large bone, weigh 147 and want to be 140. I think that would get rid of the extra fat.

In reply to Brigitte Tornatora. Yes these supplements will help reduce the pain you are experiencing with or without the fasting. But combining them with a fast can be extremely powerful! Blessings!

when doing a 5 day water fast i always believed that you only have water as any supplements throw off your fast?
i am 79 years old and over weight and have a lot of back pain as there is very little disk left in my spine.i have regular chiro care monthly.the supplements help with my back pain .I also take CBD oil every night it helps me sleep.i love MCT oil in my morning coffee.
please advise as there is a lot of conflicting information.

I have been following the alternate days fasting, 3 days a week, and it does work in reducing inflammation as I have autoimmune rheumatoid arthritis. I also take herbal supplements ,Fusion brand, which has high content of Curcumin, Boswell serrated, ginger and black pepper.

Thanks for sharing! Here is a good study for you to review on fasting and pain relief in individuals with rheumatoid arthritis https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12232494

Great information on pain and inflammation, as individual topics, with a hypothetical connection. Unfortunately, no references to support pain relief as a direct result of fasting. Ultimately, more show than go.
