Re: Healing injuries with fasting.

arn,
perhaps you would like to explain in more detail the differences between the requirements shortly after an injury occurred, where tissue healing is important, and a chronic condition, months after the injury occurred?
Healing is healing, whether this be a new injury or an old injury.

If Dr Fuhrman had practised his eventual cure sooner, then his healing would have occurred earlier. We should still bear in mind that the body is healing itself 24/7, but while eating normally, his injury did not heal despite this.
His fast "accelerated the healing process" and accomplished the complete healing he needed, which while eating regularly his body could not achieve.

We know that good nutrition is essential for health, and this is why we have food reserves to tide us over in times of famine/sickness or even injury. The body for example will feed on its amino-acid-pool when required on a water-only-fast to meet its protein needs for healing, along with all other essential nutrients from its reserves, to assist the body with its own self-healing mechanisms. Scurvy for example will develop on a restricted diet eventually if deprived of Ascorbate, but this does not occur on a water-only-fast.

Make no mistake, that when animals are sick or injured (even domesticated ones) they will abstain from food until they are well and recovered.
The evidence is all around you if you know where to look.
