Georges St-Pierre achieved remission from ulcerative colitis with fasting. Diagnosed and on heavy medication with little improvement, he started intermittent fasting (16:8) and moved to prolonged water fasts (up to 4 days). Within weeks, his symptoms vanished and he was able to stop the medication completely. Clinical research shows...

Georges St-Pierre eliminated all symptoms of his ulcerative colitis with fasting. After his fight with Michael Bisping, GSP was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis and put on heavy medication. He wasn’t a fan of the drugs, so he connected with Dr. Jason Fung and started fasting. Within a month his symptoms basically disappeared. Eight years later, he’s off all medication and says he can eat whatever he wants. Fasting is now just his normal lifestyle, often eating only after his afternoon training, plus four 3-day water fasts a year. Hearing one of the greatest MMA fighters ever credit fasting with reversing his symptoms of a “lifelong” condition is pretty eye-opening. No hype, just real results from someone who’s lived it. In a world full of constant snacking and pharmaceuticals, this shows how strategic breaks from food can powerfully support the body’s own healing processes. Have you ever tried fasting for gut issues or inflammation? What happened?

Georges St-Pierre tried fasting on a friend’s advice. After a 72-hour water fast, his ulcerative colitis symptoms dropped dramatically. Nagging injuries and inflammation vanished, even a stubborn Achilles tendon issue healed. He now does four fasts a year. Fasting triggers autophagy, where the body clears damaged cells and reduces inflammation, which can help with autoimmune conditions and injury recovery. A surprising recovery story from one of the greatest fighters ever.

Georges St-Pierre on fasting: “You can stay almost a month without eating, for most people.” He mentioned Angus Barbieri, who fasted for 382 days, lost a crazy amount of weight, and never gained it back. “If you don’t have a condition and your doctor says it’s okay, you’re not gonna die in only a few days of fasting.” Extended fasting triggers autophagy, where the body clears damaged cells and reduces inflammation, which can support recovery and metabolic health, as seen in studies on intermittent and prolonged fasting. A take from one of the greatest fighters ever.

Dr. Mindy Pelz laid out a practical fasting schedule: - 3-day water fast twice a year (e.g. January & September) to clear senescent cells - 48-hour fast once a quarter for mental health & mood - 36-hour fast once a month if weight loss is stuck 24-hour fast once a week as a baseline - Shorter daily windows (12–17 hours) the rest of the time, adjusted around your cycle Prolonged fasting (48–72 hours) significantly ramps up autophagy and stem cell regeneration. Valter Longo’s research shows periodic 3-day fasts or fasting-mimicking diets can reduce biological age markers. Shorter fasts (24–36h) improve insulin sensitivity and fat loss. Different fasting lengths trigger specific benefits, from cellular cleanup to better mood and metabolism. What fasting schedule have you found works best for you?

The Dangerous Cult of 'Fasting' Influencers. Fasting has its anecdotal benefits, yes. But it is overrated. And water fasting is highly overrated. But this video featuring a Cardiologist is amusingly nonsense. There is no study from Boston (from a "University?" - how vague!) that says 7-days water fasting reduces risk of cancer (what cancer?) by 70%. And there is no proof that fasting kills cancer cells in humans. Here is what fasting does to cancers in humans. Nothing. Fasting is now become a sort of religion-like cult for wellness influencers to rake in views and engagement. From a scientific standpoint, there are no realistically good human studies to prove anything from fasting that benefits cancers. I know, I know, "autophagy" and all that. Autophagy: Autophagy is the natural, conserved degradation of the cell that removes unnecessary or dysfunctional components. Yes, its a legit term and all. But in the context of cancer reduction and fasting in humans, it sounds like "immunity boosting," another wellness fraud term. The effects of fasting on cancer cells are all based on MOUSE studies, and none explicitly translated to humans. See this paper: everything is based on cells and tissues and small animal experiments: "While research on the subject is tantalizing, there’s little clinical evidence involving humans to substantiate the claims. Studies on the potential impacts on cancer treatment from various forms of fasting or calorie restriction, including the possibility that they reduce side effects, have been limited." "Fasting may not be appropriate for malnourished individuals or those with cancer cachexia, which results in a continuing loss of skeletal muscle mass, or for people with chronic diseases. Those with diabetes need to be very careful, because of the risk of hypoglycemia." "Based on our systematic review and meta-analysis, there is currently no evidence supporting the superiority of therapeutic fasting over non-fasting in preventing chemotherapy toxicity." - see here: Even intermittent fasting (IF) is overrated in cancer. "IF may be considered in adults seeking cancer-prevention benefits through means of weight management, butwhether IF itself affects cancer-related metabolic and molecular pathways remains unanswered. See here: Also this: "Fasting for short periods does not have any beneficial effect on the quality of life of cancer patients during treatment. Evidence on fasting regimes reducing side effects and toxicities of chemotherapy is missing." See here: The whole aspect of "fasting reducing cancer incidence" in the real world is just due to weight loss. Obesity is associated with at least 13 types of cancers and reversing obesity reduces risk of cancer - nothing to do with fasting killing off cancers cells in the body. And one can lose weight even without fasting. See here: Everything from prevention of adverse events of cancer, to reduction in side effects from chemotherapy, to slowing cancer growth by reducing glucose levels, to promoting cell regeneration by affecting autophagy is all LAB BASED MOLECULAR LEVEL HYPOTHESIS that has not been proven conclusively in humans. See here: Cancer patients must not starve. They must remain hydrated and they must eat a well balanced diet because cancer condition is highly demanding. And dont water fast for 7 days. Easy for people to make reels on it, but in real life, it may prove disastrous. Water fast does make you lose weight (because of starvation) but it is not at all a healthy way to lose weight. Stop with this fasting and cancer madness already.

The Science of Fasting - 2012 Documentary There is a reason so many religions and cultures across the world advocate for fasting to resolve health issues, and think every human being on earth should fast intermittently to help repair and detoxify themselves in this incredibly toxic world where we are being inundated from every vector. Obviously fasting can be detrimental if done excessively and the nutrition is inadequate in between fasting stints, but overall if done right, it's so obviously a great tool for our health that we should all take advantage of. It can by intermittent fasting with 18/6 or 16/8 schedules, it can be 1-2 days a month, it can be 1 week every 6 months, or whatever works best for your individual situation and health goals, but we should all be doing a little bit of fasting every now and again. Considering a large portion of the US is brutally addicted to food and severely overweight and unhealthy with countless diseases and ailments, we should be investing in fasting clinics such as the one shown in this documentary to help them break the addiction and get healthy. Robert F. Kennedy Jr has discussed detox clinics for drug abuse, and hope he can consider the same for obesity and chronic disease with fasting clinics. Many people are not disciplined and strong enough to not eat at home for a few days because of all the temptation, but if they had a place to stay with rules and restrictions, they could learn that discipline and then do it on their own. For anyone that thinks it's dangerous to fast for a long period of time, you should lookup the story of the scottish man back in 1965 who was over 450lbs and fasted for a year straight. If you have body fat on you, you can fast until it's gone, as long as you have water to drink.

Dana White did an 86-hour water fast, and he says it changed how he sees his body. He went in after learning about Boston studies on prolonged water fasting. According to him, after 72+ hours your body starts shedding dead cells, generating new ones, and fighting inflammation and disease. He came out shredded with insane mental clarity and described hitting a zen-like euphoric state. Research shows that autophagy (cellular cleanup) significantly ramps up between 48-72 hours of fasting. Studies, including recent multi-day water fast trials, have found widespread shifts in thousands of proteins affecting metabolism, inflammation, immune function, and even brain-supporting structures. In a world of constant eating and processed food, strategic extended fasting is one of the most powerful (and free) ways to trigger deep biological repair mechanisms our bodies evolved with. Have you ever tried a multi-day fast, or does 72 hours sound insane to you?

A functional medicine physician shares his clinical experience with autoimmune conditions: many cases of rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Hashimoto’s, and ulcerative colitis appear linked to intestinal permeability (“leaky gut”). Undigested food proteins—especially from dairy, gluten-containing grains, and refined sugars—can enter the bloodstream and trigger immune reactions that mistakenly target the body’s own tissues. Standard treatment often relies on immunosuppressive medications like prednisone or biologics, which can reduce symptoms quickly but carry significant long-term risks. In his practice, when patients strictly remove common dietary triggers and support gut healing—sometimes using supervised water-only fasting as one tool—many report dramatic improvements: reduced pain, normalized lab markers, and in some cases the ability to discontinue medications under medical supervision. He notes that patients who experience symptom flares after dietary slips tend to maintain long-term adherence because the contrast is so clear. Watch the attached 2:33 clip to hear his real-world patient outcomes straight from the source. Who else has seen symptoms completely shift just by cleaning up their plate?

A 72-hour water fast (drinking water but consuming no calories) can trigger several changes in the body. Some are well supported by research, while others are still being studied. Potential benefits 1. Autophagy may increase * Autophagy is the process by which cells break down and recycle damaged components. * Animal studies show fasting can stimulate autophagy, and in humans it is thought to increase during prolonged fasting, although exactly when and by how much varies and is still being researched. 2. Ketosis * After around 24–48 hours, most people begin producing ketones from stored fat. * By 72 hours, many people are in deeper ketosis, which can: * Increase fat burning. * Provide an alternative fuel source for the brain. * Reduce hunger in some people once ketosis is established. 3. Improved insulin sensitivity * Fasting lowers insulin levels. * Short-term fasting can improve insulin sensitivity after the fast, which may help with blood sugar regulation in some individuals. 4. Reduced inflammation * Some studies have found short-term fasting can lower certain inflammatory markers, although results vary. 5. Weight loss * You’ll lose weight during a 72-hour fast. * Part of this is fat, but a significant amount is also water and depleted glycogen stores. * Some weight is regained once you eat normally again. 6. Lower blood sugar * Blood glucose typically falls during fasting, particularly in people without diabetes. 7. Potential cardiovascular benefits * Temporary reductions in blood pressure may occur. * Triglycerides may improve in some people. * Long-term benefits depend more on overall diet and lifestyle than occasional fasting. 8. Mental clarity * Some people report improved focus and concentration after the first 24–48 hours, possibly related to ketone production. * Others experience fatigue or brain fog instead. 9. Digestive rest * The digestive system gets a break from processing food

Dana White’s jet lag hack is wild. He fasts the entire long flight (he already does intermittent fasting) and drinks hydrogen water the whole way. He’s done it to Australia, Abu Dhabi, and New York, and says he gets zero jet lag. He’s so into it he just bought a bigger hydrogen water machine. Fasting during travel helps reset circadian rhythms by aligning meal timing with the destination’s local time, reducing jet lag symptoms. Molecular hydrogen (in hydrogen-rich water) acts as a selective antioxidant, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation caused by high-altitude flight conditions, which may further aid recovery and energy levels. Jet lag ruins travel. If this combination really works, it’s a simple, low-cost hack for frequent flyers. Have you tried fasting on long flights before?

Struggling with stubborn belly fat that won't budge? Renowned cardiologist Dr. Pradip Jamnadas, with over 30 years of experience helping patients improve heart health and metabolism, shares his practical step-by-step approach to intermittent fasting in this insightful 58-second clip. He explains how to gradually build fasting habits: - Start gently: A 12-hour fasting window (e.g., stop eating at 8 PM, eat again at 8 AM) with no-calorie drinks only—do this for 2-3 weeks to ease in. - Progress: Move to 18-6 (18 hours fasting, 6-hour eating window) using water, black coffee/tea, or green tea. - For bigger goals (like significant weight loss or supporting metabolic health): Incorporate a 48-hour fast weekly, or every 9-10 days combine OMAD (One Meal A Day) with a 3-day water fast. Dr. Jamnadas emphasizes starting slow and listening to your body—many find it boosts energy over time! Important: This is general educational info. Always consult your healthcare professional before trying fasting, especially if you have conditions like diabetes or are on medications. What's one small change you've made for better health lately?

Christopher Hemsworth went from “no way I can fast” to full ketosis superpower on day 4. In this clip, he shares how he committed to a 4-day water fast for a project (after initial talks of just intermittent fasting or a day or two turned into “nah, we’re doing four”). Expectation: Maybe ketosis by day 2–3, mental sharpness, alertness. Reality: Days 1–3 felt flat. Then on day 4, during spearfishing, “it kicked in and things started to percolate.” Science nugget: By day 3–4 of water fasting, most people enter deep ketosis—liver glycogen depletes, fat breakdown ramps up, ketones become the brain’s primary fuel (up to 70% of energy), often leading to improved focus, reduced inflammation, and that classic “fasting clarity” many describe as a mental edge. Clip from this 45-second gem—Hemsworth proving the real magic usually hits when you think you’ve hit the wall. Ever pushed through a multi-day fast and felt that switch flip? Or does day 4 still sound like pure torture? Your fasting stories — drop them below 👇

Fasting's the most underrated longevity hack on Earth. Doctors said skipping meals destroys your metabolism... Yet fasting is proven to boost your hormones, burn toxic fat, and repair DNA damage naturally. Here are 7 insane fasting benefits (bookmark this):👇️️️️️️ 1. Activates Autophagy Autophagy kicks in after 12–16 hours of fasting. It's your built-in cleanup system, recycling toxic and old cells into new, fresh ones. It also removes toxic debris linked to Alzheimer's, cancer, & accelerated aging. 2. Burns excess fat Fasting flips your body's fuel switch. When glycogen runs low, it start breaking down stored fat into ketones for energy. And the fact that no more calories are coming in your body... Means you're now forced to burn your own fat. 3. Boosts your hormones Fasting increases human growth hormone (HGH) by up to 5x baseline levels. Higher HGH means: - Faster fat loss - Enhanced recovery - Preserved lean muscle It also improves testosterone in men by reducing insulin resistance. 4. Repairs DNA damage With no food to process, your cells focus on SURVIVAL: - Repairing DNA strands - Cleaning out broken parts - Recycling damaged proteins Fasting's one of the few medicines that helps you rebuild from the inside out naturally. 5. Enhances Insulin Sensitivity Fasting gives your pancreas a break from constant insulin production. Over time, your cells become more responsive to insulin → better glucose control & lower diabetes risk. One study found 16:8 fasting improved insulin sensitivity by ~30% in just 8 weeks. I've found a supplement that increases fasting's benefits by 5X. It keeps insulin low, stabilizes energy, even lets you stay lean year-round. It allows me to stay at 10–12% body fat all year effortlessly, without energy crashes. Here's the one I use (AMAZON PRODUCT LINK): 6. Lowers Inflammation Fasting suppresses inflammatory cytokines like IL-6 and TNF-alpha — the molecular triggers behind: - Brain fog - Chronic pain - Slow recovery By quieting that response, your body heals faster and ages slower. I use fasting daily for the past year and here's exactly why: It gives me: - More energy - Leaner body - Better focus And I feel more alive than EVER. I've made a guide with my fasting protocol. Comment "Fasting" and I'll send it over. (Must Follow so I can DM) 🤝 *Every body works differently, this is not medical advice, just what worked on me." *Always consult a health expert before following any protocols." *Affiliate links included.*

Yet fasting is proven to boost your hormones, burn toxic fat, and repair DNA damage naturally. Here are 7 insane fasting benefits (bookmark this):👇️️️️️️ 1. Activates Autophagy Autophagy kicks in after 12–16 hours of fasting. It's your built-in cleanup system, recycling toxic and old cells into new, fresh ones. It also removes toxic debris linked to Alzheimer's, cancer, & accelerated aging. 2. Burns excess fat Fasting flips your body's fuel switch. When glycogen runs low, it start breaking down stored fat into ketones for energy. And the fact that no more calories are coming in your body... Means you're now forced to burn your own fat. 3. Boosts your hormones Fasting increases human growth hormone (HGH) by up to 5x baseline levels. Higher HGH means: - Faster fat loss - Enhanced recovery - Preserved lean muscle It also improves testosterone in men by reducing insulin resistance. 4. Repairs DNA damage With no food to process, your cells focus on SURVIVAL: - Repairing DNA strands - Cleaning out broken parts - Recycling damaged proteins Fasting's one of the few medicines that helps you rebuild from the inside out naturally. 5. Enhances Insulin Sensitivity Fasting gives your pancreas a break from constant insulin production. Over time, your cells become more responsive to insulin → better glucose control & lower diabetes risk. One study found 16:8 fasting improved insulin sensitivity by ~30% in just 8 weeks. I've found a supplement that increases fasting's benefits by 5X. It keeps insulin low, stabilizes energy, even lets you stay lean year-round. It allows me to stay at 10–12% body fat all year effortlessly, without energy crashes. Here's the one I use (AMAZON PRODUCT LINK): 6. Lowers Inflammation Fasting suppresses inflammatory cytokines like IL-6 and TNF-alpha — the molecular triggers behind: - Brain fog - Chronic pain - Slow recovery By quieting that response, your body heals faster and ages slower. I use fasting daily for the past year and here's exactly why: It gives me: - More energy - Leaner body - Better focus And I feel more alive than EVER. I've made a guide with my fasting protocol. Comment "Fasting" and I'll send it over.

Can people in power/ authority kindly stop with this absolute BS on "fasting killing cancer cells" and citing religious nonsense to appeal to peoples emotions? Fasting is really quite dangerous for cancer patients in real life. Let me explain and bury this myth once and for all, especially for science illiterates like this guy. [1] The most common argument is that fasting "starves" cancer by cutting off its sugar (glucose) supply. While it is true that cancer cells consume vast amounts of glucose, they are biologically aggressive survivalists. If you stop eating, your body eventually switches to burning fat and breaking down muscle for energy. Cancer cells are highly adaptable; when glucose is low, many types of cancer can mutate to feed on other fuel sources, such as lactate, amino acids (from your muscles), or fatty acids. You cannot simply "starve" a tumor without starving the patient first. [2] Fasting is dangerous for cancer patients because of cancer cachexia - a wasting syndrome where the body loses muscle and fat rapidly. Cachexia is responsible for up to 30% of cancer deaths. Cancer puts the body in a hyper-metabolic state (burning energy fast). If a patient fasts, they risk accelerating muscle loss and weakening their immune system. A weak body cannot tolerate life-saving treatments like chemotherapy or radiation, nor can it fight off infections. [3] Most claims about fasting curing cancer come from studies on mice or cells in a petri dish. In a dish: You can kill cancer cells with almost anything (lemon juice, bleach, starvation, even shooting a bullet at it at close point or using a grenade to destroy the entire lab) because they have no immune system or body to protect them. In a human: The biology is infinitely more complex. Human metabolism, hormonal fluctuations, and tumor micro-environments mean that what shrinks a tumor in a mouse often fails completely in human trials. [4] Proponents often cite "autophagy" (the body's cellular recycling process triggered by fasting) as the cure. They claim it cleans out cancerous cells. Science shows that autophagy is a double-edged sword. -In all people, autophagy is a normal physiological process - whether fasting or not, which help in cleaning up damaged cells. -But in patients with cancer, once a tumor exists, cancer cells can actually hijack autophagy to survive stress (like chemotherapy) and repair themselves. In this context, fasting could theoretically help the cancer survive the treatment intended to kill it. [5] "Cancer" is not one disease; it is over 200 different diseases characterized by uncontrolled cell growth. Some cancers are driven by hormones, some by genetic mutations, and some by viruses. A fasting protocol that slows down one specific type of breast cancer might have zero effect on pancreatic cancer, or worse, accelerate a different type. The most lethal aspect of this misinformation is the delay in treatment. Cancer is a time-sensitive disease. While a patient spends months trying to fast the cancer away based on religious or alternative advice, the cancer often metastasizes (spreads) to other organs. Once cancer spreads, it often moves from being curable to being terminal. Relying solely on fasting wastes the critical window where medical intervention could have saved a life. Suggesting a single "ancient cure" for 200 complex genetic diseases is scientifically illogical... ...and generally stupid, as this video proves.

Fasting is NOT Superior for Autophagy Autophagy has become the biggest buzzword in nutrition in the last 5 years & whenever I do videos or posts on intermittent fasting & why it is a useful tool for fat loss, but NOT superior to other calorie equated diets, people invariably say that ‘tHeSe StUdIeS dOn’T aCcOuNt FoR aUtoPhAgY!’ When I cite studies showing that normal calorie restriction gets the same benefits as calorie equated fasting diets, people often say that fasting gets you the benefits WITHOUT calorie restriction. Well, a very highly controlled study showed that this is NOT the case Well this study did (PMID: 34135111). They had people follow one of 3 diets: 1) Alternate day fasting without calorie restriction where they ate 200% of their maintenance calories on feeding days, & 0% the next day (200:0) & continued to alternate them throughout the course of the study 2) Alternate day fasting with 25% calorie restriction where they ate 150% of their maintenance calories on feeding days & 0% the next day (150:0) & continued to alternate those throughout the course of the study or 3) Continuous calorie restriction where they had people eat 75% of their maintenance calories every day for the duration of the study (75:75) Both the 150:0 & 75:75 diets reduced body weight to the same extent, but the 75:75 group lost slightly more fat mass & retained slightly more lean mass than the 150:0 fasting group. Both restricted groups lost more body fat & weight than the 200:0 group which did not lose weight or fat. Markers of autophagy were also equivalent between the 150:0 & 75:75 groups as well as other adipose tissue genes, gut hormones, and markers of cardiometabolic health This study demonstrates that it is the caloric restriction that drives these improvements in health & the changes in autophagy, NOT because fasting has some magical effect on autophagy that exists outside of the caloric restriction it imposes I am NOT saying fasting is bad. I’m not saying it’s not a useful tool or that you can’t lose fat with it. You can & it can be a great tool for many people… it’s just not magic like many proponents of fasting try to make it out to be Tired of the diet wars & not knowing how to make sense of all the contradictory information out there?

David Sinclair’s #1 anti-aging hack: Skip a meal or two every day. He’s on one-meal-a-day and says he got his 20-year-old body back, feels sharper, sleeps better, and has steady energy. Fasting flips on the same longevity genes (like sirtuins) our ancestors used to survive hard times. His tip: Don’t go cold turkey. Give it at least two weeks, your body adapts and the hunger fades. Multiple studies (including human trials) show time-restricted eating and intermittent fasting improve metabolic health, insulin sensitivity, reduce inflammation, and activate cellular repair (autophagy). Animal studies link it to longer lifespan, while human data supports better markers of biological age. What’s your take, could skipping one meal a day be one of the highest-leverage things you can do for longevity?

A Harvard professor who's studied aging for 30 years says one of the most powerful longevity tools on Earth is free. Fasting. David Sinclair explained what happens at the cellular level when you stop eating food for long periods of time: Your body has proteins called sirtuins. They're the conductors of your cellular orchestra - telling each gene when to turn on and off, keeping every cell's identity intact. But sirtuins need fuel called NAD to function. By age 50, your NAD levels drop by HALF. Your conductors are running on empty. Your cells start losing their identity. Fasting raises NAD back up. It reactivates the sirtuins and preserves the epigenome. Sinclair mentions it's only useful if you're already meeting nutrient and micronutrient intake as well. He himself skips breakfast daily and tries to go until late afternoon before eating. Once a month, he fasts for 3 full days because deep cellular recycling - called chaperone-mediated autophagy - only kicks in after about 2 and a half to 3 days. He called three meals a day "craziness" and said the idea that breakfast is the most important meal of the day was "marketing from the early 20th century" by cereal companies. Fasting is just one of the strategies he uses for optimal health. — David Sinclair

Dana White says a 72-hour water fast (done a couple times a year) completely changed how he feels. On Adin Ross, he described it as giving insane mental clarity and making you feel incredible. He sticks strictly to water + zero-calorie electrolytes the whole time and calls it one of the most beneficial things he’s ever done for himself. 48–72 hour water fasting has been shown in studies to significantly increase autophagy (cellular repair and cleanup), boost growth hormone levels, improve insulin sensitivity, and reduce systemic inflammation. It also enhances metabolic flexibility, helping the body burn fat more efficiently. Have you ever tried a multi-day water fast? Would you consider doing a 72-hour one?

Many modern Bible translations removed Matthew 17:21, Why? “This kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.” Fasting isn’t just spiritual it’s both spiritual and physical. It is a discipline that brings the body under submission and sharpens the spirit. Scripture shows that obedience, prayer, and fasting are connected to healing, clarity, and authority. The Bible also speaks of natural provision for healing: “The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.” Revelation 22:2 When God’s people listen and walk in His instructions, He says: “I will put none of these diseases upon you… for I am the Lord who heals you.” — Exodus 15:26 God even gives guidance on what we consume: “Season all your grain offerings with salt.” Leviticus 2:13 Salt is mineral rich especially magnesium, which supports the body’s detox and healing processes. Scripture also points to nourishment from animals: “You will have goats’ milk enough for your food.” Proverbs 27:27 Many modern health issues are linked to mineral depletion, especially magnesium deficiency. God’s design always included natural balance, discipline, and obedience not shortcuts. Prayer. Fasting. God’s provision. God’s instructions. 🙏🏻✝️
