Passar fome regenera Pâncreas (ajudando na diabetes Tipo 2)

Parecido com o livro sobre a reversão da diabetes tipo 2, há estudos que analisam o efeito da redução calórica (jejum) no pâncreas, parecendo que ajuda à sua regeneração e normalização dos níveis de açúcar no sangue:

Citando:
"Experts said the findings were "potentially very exciting" as they could become a new treatment for the disease.

People are advised not to try this without medical advice.

In the experiments, mice were put on a modified form of the "fasting-mimicking diet".

It is like the human form of the diet when people spend five days on a low calorie, low protein, low carbohydrate but high unsaturated-fat diet.

It resembles a vegan diet with nuts and soups, but with around 800 to 1,100 calories a day.

Then they have 25 days eating what they want - so overall it mimics periods of feast and famine.

Previous research has suggested it can slow the pace of ageing."
