The practical guide to fasting

Health, detox, well-being, disease-prevention…

Lionel Goudron is a nutritionist and fasted regularly over many years. He accompanies and supports his patients who wish to do so. His book explains in clear terms which physiological mechanisms are at work whilst fasting and helps the reader find the most appropriate technique: fasting for a weekend, six days, two weeks… accompanied by broth, meditation or yoga… at home or in groups. Fasting is not a universal cure-all remedy, and the author also details certain disadvantages, such as fatigue or headaches. However, it could relieve patients with rheumatic diseases, mood disorders, fibromyalgia or even cancer.
