Fasting Boosts Metabolism and May Promote Longevity

I have talked in other blogs about the many benefits of intermittent fasting. And just as some patients fear the acupuncture needles before they get a treatment and find out that the needles don't hurt - many people are afraid if they fast they will get hungry. It's true you might get a little bit hungry, for a while. But the benefits far outweigh any temporary discomfort. I just read an article that explains recent research that shows some of these benefits - which include helping you live longer!
