In this video we dive deep into the science of 36hour and 48hour extended fasting. Discover the latest scientific studies showing some of the key promises of why it can make sense to do a 48hour or 2 day fast which in my opinion may be the perfect prolonged fasting length to do every so often for both weight loss and health benefits.

We cover 9 studies ranging from IGF1, HGH or Human Growth Hormone, Cancer Research, Autophagy, Immunity, the general timeline of fasting, gut bacteria and microbiome research and answer questions like when does autophagy start and much more!
