True Health
In the search for quick-fix solutions, we’ve forgotten what true health means. Human history and modern science show us true health is achievable with two basic elements: fasting and nutrition.

Fasting Aid units both

01. fasting

Today’s science suggests intermittent fasting’s far-reaching metabolic effects help with weight loss, natural energy, blood sugar balance, heart health, brain function, gut health, immune performance, anti-aging and more.

Fasting’s far-reaching physiological benefits may manifest as mental and physical performance enhancements.

02. nutrients

Peak health requires micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) that perform thousands of life-sustaining functions in your body.

Good micronutrient intake promotes health, immunity and longevity. But suboptimal micronutrient status from fasting and other factors may diminish vitality and performance while raising risk for long-range health concerns.

The secret to maximum fasting benefits?

Reduce eating frequency without depleting micronutrients. Approaching fasting from a new angle, Fasting Aid product help you to do just that.

Nutrient imbalances are more common than we think

Fasting reduces micronutrient intake. But even those eating multiple meals a day may not get enough nutrition from diet alone. A three-year CDC survey of 16,000+ individuals found several micronutrient shortfalls:
· Vitamin A
- 34% fell short
· Vitamin C
- 25% fell short
· Vitamin D
- 70% fell short
· Vitamin E
- 60% fell short
· Calcium
- 38% fell short
· Magnesium
- 45% fell short

why a healthy diet alone may not be enough

Low nutritional status is linked to fasting “side effects”: hunger, fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, immune issues and other concerns. Eating a healthy diet on feeding window helps, but still may not be enough due to our modern world’s nutrient-depleting factors:
things to consider
01. Fruits & Veggies Are Less Nutritious

During the fast, our reserves run even lower

Intermittent fasters may have a higher risk of nutrient inadequacy. We may start a fast with pre-existing nutrient imbalances. Fasting itself can then drive our bodies further into imbalance due to:
01. Dietary Shifts
We tend to eat less when we practice periodic fasting regularly, which means we’re restricting our main source of key micronutrients.
02. Electrolyte Depletion
Fasting steeply lowers insulin levels and depletes glycogen stores. As a result, we excrete water and charged minerals called electrolytes at an elevated rate.
03. Individual Health
Depending on factors like insulin sensitivity, gut microbiome, or levels of certain hormones, our bodies may need more of certain nutrients than usual during the fast.
