Don't listen to this hewbrew.
I went from 264 to 155 then lifted my way back up to 210.
I've been to doctor several times since and everything is flawless, bloodwork, liver, kidney, etc.
Just be smart about it, if you back/sides hurt you need electrolytes and organic lemon juice.

I’ve seen studies saying it can increase blood pressure, but it’s mostly harmless.
For me personally, when I didn’t work 9-5 I’d lift in the mornings fasted and it was great. Now I just don’t eat until my second coffee break. The limited time window works for me because I tend to stuff my fricking face.
Also I don’t know if it’s a result of fasting, having no time, being surrounded by unattractive women at my workplace, or being severely mentally and socially fricked by the last girl I was into, but I haven’t felt the desire to jerk off or view any kind of porn in months, yet I’m having more wet dreams than ever. So that’s good I guess?
Yes. IDK about the stemcells or estrogen part though. Everything else is negligible. It's like those gays who cry that artificial sweeteners "spike" insulin, when it's a tiny itty bitty insulin response.
>I’ve seen studies saying it can increase blood pressure, but it’s mostly harmless.
It definitely does.
It's true. No one taught me when I was a wee baby and had to get an emergency circumcision because it stole shut.
I was like 5, I only remember trying to pee but couldn't and it hurt like he'll.

Effect of Intermittent Fasting on Reproductive Hormone Levels in Females and Males: A Review of Human Trials >As for men, intermittent fasting reduced testosterone levels in lean, physically active, young males
These are all time restricted feeding aka IF, going beyond IF to extended fasts is even worse and more catabolic too.
If you're not fat as frick and (pre-)diabetic and you actually care about performance you should not be doing IF, simple as that. There's no actual benefit and it's worse for muscle protein synthesis, strength, hormones, is more catabolic to the muscle >muh HGH spike
that's a stress response, not a good thing and doesn't help anything

Not totally wrong, but still inaccurate.

Is this true?
test reduction claim is probably true. I'm never horny while I'm fasting even tho I'm at normal bf%

It sad and funny at the same time how much morons flip flop between health fads all the time.
I give it 2 years before seedoils are actually good again and they find another big bad ingredient to blame for their lack of a body.
it's almost like you're supposed to synthesise a nuanced viewpoint from the entirety of the data rather than cherrypicking whatever agrees with your paranoia on a given day
NOOOOOOOO that goes completely against my autistic behavior of only eating one or two single ingredients and trying to convert everyone on the internet into the same shit.
If fasting lowered testosterone and increased estrogen, our species would have gone extinct a long time ago.
Stoicism was cool, but now it's been hijacked by bad actors just like everything else that is good.
i try and try and try to avoid this prick as much as i can but he just won't go away, and his take on """estrogen""" is empirically wrong, it's driving me mad
religious fasts are fine. it's the prolonged fasting meme that is harmful

Bro you were obese. We are talking about fasting for normal people here. Don't be obese in the first place.
>I was obese listen to me
No thanks
I don’t care for the opinion coming from an anonymous Twitter account run by a poo in loo larping as a stoic and you shouldn’t either.
>I don't care for the opinion coming from an [redacted] Twitter account
That's all that needed to be said right there. People put too much stake into things anyone says on social media regardless of who runs the page
it came from twitter from an actual nobody, of course its true
No, it's not. Stop posting dumb shit twitter posts.
bump
Kinda
But its better than being fat
people that give any regard to some marcus aurelius larper on twitter have other problems to worry about

Define fasting because for a lot of people fasting is simply eating at meal times. It's not going without food for weeks.
This has always been true for me. Always lean and feel weak and tiny when I don't eat. I literally waste away after missing meals.

Takes a real genius to realize you need food for your body and brain to work.
