13: The Beauty of Dirty Fasting (pros/cons + how to do it)

Today I explain the difference between “clean fasting” and “dirty fasting” (aka modified fasting).  That includes the pros & cons of each type, as well as how to do a dirty or modified fast.  I also share 2 stories about prolonged fasts I’ve done to illustrate some of the key points.

The bottom line?  Dirty fasting is a great option for most beginners because it's more flexible, easier to do, but still gives you most of the health benefits you're probably looking for (like improved blood sugar, better insulin sensitivity, or fat loss, to name a few).
