from Love Your Life and Yourself Podcast · host Dr. Ashley Rath

In this episode, I share my detailed experience of completing a 72-hour water fast. I explain my reasons for undertaking the fast, the physical and mental challenges I faced, and the remarkable benefits I observed. From overcoming hunger pains to experiencing a deep sense of mental clarity and cellular health benefits through autophagy, I unpack the stages of the fast and provide insights on how a longer-term fast affects the body. I also discuss the importance of proper preparation and breaking the fast, and offer tips for those interested in trying intermittent fasting. This episode is packed with valuable lessons and resources, including recommendations for further reading and expert podcast suggestions.📲 Find Ashley Online → [www.drashleyrath.com]🎯 Let’s Connect: [Linktree]📲 Follow Ashley on Instagram for daily insights → [@drashleyrath]📚 Get Ashley's Book here: [⁠⁠Love Your Life and Yourself⁠⁠]
