I have heard that one of the benefits of intermitent fasting is that people constantly digest food and thus they become sick from overuse . Letting the body rest periods of time is extremely beneficial for the body . In fact this helps the body repair and rest a while .
Of course it would take longer fest to benefit a great problem But intermitent fasting is like prevention and helps the body to clean up the bad cells and give a very needed rest to the digestive system .
