  1. How does fasting help with viral infections? First off it lowers your blood sugar and insulin, this allows white blood cells to move more freely throughout the body and do their job. Ideal blood sugar is around 80. Second it shuts down your ribosomes, which are the factories in your cells used to produce proteins. This is what a virus needs to reproduce and it can't reproduce without them. Third, it stimulates the AMPK complex and activates autophagy. Autophagy (literally self eating) will causes cells to recycle foreign matter such as viruses. AMPK does many helpful things in the body including activating the body's antioxidant defenses. Fasting also puts you into deep ketosis, which virtually eliminates inflammation in the body. This can offset the life threatening symptoms of viral pneumonia which effectively kills you through inflammation. This also creates BHB ketones in your body, which help your immune system. When you fast, your T and B cells retreat to the bone marrow and are renewed at a genetic level, each cell having all its DNA repaired. This supercharges your immune system and makes your cells young again. On top of all this, fasting encourages the direct apoptosis (death) of infected cells, shortcutting the typically length process of killing them off through macrophages. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autophagy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMP-activated_protein_kinase https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribosome https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketosis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokine_storm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sepsis https://repository.upenn.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1537&context=edissertations https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(19)30849-9 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25686106 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24905167 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10859646

  6. @Peter Pain Instead of getting emotional look over the research instead before commenting. I already linked enough to keep you busy for days so don't tell me you already have. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autophagy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMP-activated_protein_kinase https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribosome https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketosis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokine_storm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sepsis https://repository.upenn.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1537&context=edissertations https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(19)30849-9 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25686106 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24905167 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10859646 http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0005272806000223 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1413655/
