Summary: Great for the beginner as well as experienced faster
Comment: This book covered everything I had been searching for in the last year on fasting. Though the cover focuses on weight loss, the book includes many other benefits. It also went into the misconceptions and resulting fears about going without food (with funny, but disturbing examples of paranoia). It can shed some serious light on the current media craze to quickly finger someone as "anorexic". It confirmed ideas in my personal experiences with fasting-including why water fasting is easier and better than juice fasting. It has a chapter with many personal accounts of the fasting experience. The print is easy to read and it's not at all wordy (boring). My longest fast was an 11-day juice fast. I am starting again, with much more information to make this a way of life.

Summary: A BIG THANK YOU to Amazon's used book sales!
Comment: Finally!! I had the original book by Dr Cott "Fasting as a Way of Life", and it was practical, and extremely informative about all aspects of fasting.
I would fast about once every 3 to 4 months, for anywhere from 3 to 7 days. It was wonderful! It kept my weight optimal, I felt energetic, and I was only slightly hungry on the second day of any fast, but no longer than that day. Once I regained my hunger, I always carefully broke my fast as directed, and felt great afterward.
I lost my copy of that original book many years back, and didn't feel comfortable to fast without some reference. But since the tide had turned in public opinion about fasting, and there weren't many sources of information available.
Thanks to amazon.com 's used book sales, I will get another copy, so that I can once again feel the benefits of fasting.
This book is the one that other authors reference as the authority on fasting, and anyone planning to fast should definitely read it.

Summary: a wonderful and responsable book on unique suject!
Comment: i am a orthomolecular- nutritionist, and generaly my system is not exactly in the direction of fasting,but the only rule is that there are no rules. sometimes i do recommand to my patients a few days fast,( especialy to my very severe allergic patients). eventhough i admit that i didn't ordered toany of my patients to fast more than 5 days, i am convinced that some cases can benefit from this book.the actualy 2 books combined together explains the mechanisms of fasting, and teach the reader what really happens in the body systems while you are on fasting for 3 days,a week, 2 weeks, and 3 weeks,andwhen and how to understand what and when it became a starvation, and when it is just a cleansing fast. the exact way of introducing yourself back to foods are discovered with great details, and what kinds of illness and diseases are not alowed to do the fast.this is why i said in the begining that this is a responsable book. it is very recommanded!
