Got interested after seeing benefits of intermediate fasting in retreats from noon (more energy more time) - but started to read about benefits of longer fasts now (24 hours - 28 days)
But there is the whole middle way thing to consider - did buddha talk against fasting ? or just against fasting to suffer on purpose thinking that would liberate you ?
If i do it for health benefits it might be ok - right ?
maybe it does have benifits that can help the practice (more energy more time etc).
