Yes #111629,
going long-term on a 70, 80, or 90 day fast would indeed give the body ample time to eradicate any health/disease-issues, but it is just too long a time-frame for internal food reserves to be sufficient in the prevention of starvation.
We have to consider that fasting is still just a state of nutrition, but instead of living from external daily sources of food we are surviving on a "limited" amount of internal nutrition or food supplies.
No fasting supervisor or competent and professionally qualified fasting expert, would consider a fast of that length to be of any benefit before serious health issues arise and the onset of starvation begins.

Good health and the eradication of disease can be more easily accomplished with a shorter and safer fasting period of anywhere between 25 and 48 days and where food reserves would last up to and possibly slightly beyond this period, but this will depend entirely on the quality of food reserves that are available and is again entirely dependent on the quality of the pre-fast diet in achieving those health goals.

My own cure from leukemia was achieved by a fast of 25 days followed by another fast of 30 days with approx' 30 days of careful refeeding in-between, so if this is sufficient time to effect a cure from a serious cancer such as this, is there really any need to invite the possibility of destructive starvation by prolonging a fast any longer?
I hardly think so.
