This Month Presentation:
"Fasting, the Ultimate Vegan Diet”

This lecture is designed to teach the basics of fasting and dispel many of the myths concerning fasting. Fasting and calorie restriction are valuable tools that can be used by almost all people to treat numerous conditions ranging from hypertension, cardiovascular problems, diabetes, allergies, arthritis, migraines and a wide range of inflammatory pathologies. Scientific evidence will be presented along with practical applications demonstrating effective use of both water and juice fasting. Also will be discussed will be FMD (fasting mimicking diets), which is a term coined by Dr. Valter Longo, one of the world’s leading experts in fasting and calorie restriction. Lastly, transitioning from fasting to eating solid foods will conclude this lecture.
