Fasting (2017) Reviews

  • Instead of using medicine, rather fast a day. - Plutarch.

    As a gym instructor and nutritionist, i totally endorse fasting under supervision. There is a thin line between fasting and starvation. Starvation leads to atrophy n wasting but fasting has been shown to induce autophagy, a process by which cells "clean up" cellular "garbage". Autophagy protects cells from excessive oxidative stress. Autophagy prevents cancerous growths, metabolic dysfunctions like obesity and diabetes. The three ways to Autophagy is fasting, low carb and exercise. Regarding the film, there was no need to show the Donner party. Starvation leads to low potassium thereby causing psychosis, whereas fasting prevents dementia. In fact, more emphasis shud have been on autophagy. More talks shud have been on the difference between starvation n fasting. Also important is that after fasting n weight loss regime one shud never forget to excrete the toxins with the use of high fiber foods.

  • Good topic, bad coverage, confusing and irrelevant information

    First, I was hoping to find something that spoke more clearly about the science of fasting. Instead you get a few testimonials from doctors who had some of their patients turn their health around, and a lot of time is spent on that. Autophagy isn't even mentioned until nearly the end. I also was totally thrown by the section about the Donner Party, which seems completely out of place. I skipped half of it as it was repulsing me and not why I was watching a documentary about fasting. There are not seven methods discussed, it is more anecdotes about different people who used fasting in different ways. The information feels incomplete, and scattered. This documentary is awful.

  • Great subject, Terrible movie

    admin-8022018-02-14

    Fasting for healing is a great subject to tackle, it's too bad it was done so poorly in this documentary. The editing is extermely confusing, especially in the beginning, the message is often unclear (they talk about how fasting is dangerous for those with eating disorder but then a guy with an eating disorder says how much it helped him?). There are many people walking in slow motion for some reason, doing things that are not really related to the movie or what is being talked about. The main issue of this movie is simply bad editing. I was barly able to finish it and I only did because the topic is interesting to me.

  • Oh. The confusion was total. Do not watch!

    Looking for a good movie about fasting? Do not watch/pay for this one. All in all it is just a mess of bad moviemaking mixed with a strange back and forth message about fasting. it surprises me that they got Walter and Jason onboard this project at all. And what also truck me is the long sweeping bodyshoots that where alsmost he whole time. Wanna know about fasting in detail? Search for Jason Fung on Youtube and watch the longer talks. There you will really learn a thing or two.

  • Too many personal anecdotes, and poorly constructed

    lewisworrall-291672018-06-28

    Lots of people running on beaches like a sanitary towel commercial, meandering, chatting about random medical health numbers, personal ancedotes and 2nd hand anecdotes, drone shots, random yoga 'how this worked for me - miracle' 'my hob-o-diba-doblin is down from 300 to 25'. (I made that last bit up). This film really does little to push forward the science of fasting - all that is being said is a similar thing some of the recent vegan documentaries are saying. Like the makers just watched 'What the Health' and decided to put out a fasting version. There is a lot to fasting, as there is to plant based diets. Essentially you are eating less and eating better quality foods- cutting out the terrible junk processed food. What is the difference in effect to a plant based diet? What different types of fasting are there? Fast Mimicking? Water fasting? Fruit fasting? Intermittent fasting? How long for? Hours? Days? Weeks? What are the dangers of each one? Do you need medical supervision? Which could be done safely on your own? And for whom? That could have been covered in much more detail, they have an interview Dr Valter Longo, an expert who could shed real insight but he needed more screen time. Like the makers left out the hard bits that might confuse the intellectually weak in the audience or not get sued - fasting is great, but don't do it as it couldbe dangerous for some people. I think this documentary could be re-edited, and actually be much better. An opportunity missed.
