A lot of technical medical jargon in the beginning, but the middle is revelant!

Explaining why we should keep fasting, how we should fasting. Discipline in food will keep you healthy for life .

FAITH BASED FASTING. TOO PREACHY FOR MY SCIENCE AND TECH BACKGROUND. BUT NOT BAD.

This book is chock full of scientific cases about fasting. The portion of the book on fasting itself talks about the healthful benefits of fasting both physical and spiritual. I enjoyed this portion of the book. I would have enjoyed it more if there had been a better template of how to go about fasting.

This book is basically in two parts. First, he gives the medical evidence and scientific reasons to fast. In the second half, he addresses the spiritual benefits and reasons to fast. While I admit to skimming over some of the scientific explanations, his conclusions and evidence were still quite compelling. I was ready to fast before I got to the spiritual half of the book and the second half just served to seal the deal for me! Thank you, Professor Umesiri!!! (He is a man who truly lives what he teaches!)
