I have a torn rotator cuff that I injured 2 years ago, and it’s still bothering me. The only thing that tends to help is fasting, and I refuse to get surgery.
3 months ago I did a 26-day water fast which helped a bit, and I just finished a 9.5 day dry fast (just started drinking water, will eat in a couple of hours).
Mentally, it’s going to be difficult for me to do a fast that long again for a while. I was wondering if it’s okay to do multiple, 5-day fasts instead of always doing long ones.
​
Will fasting for 5 days result in the same? (obviously less efficient and less healing, but the same type of healing) Or is it that only fasting after long periods of time do certain processes get activated?
Thanks in advance!
That’s incredible and congtats on dryfasting that long. In the video below Dr Filonov talks about fractional dryfasting where you can achieve the same results of very long dry fast with 2 shorter dry fasts within a 2 month period.
This is assuming very clean eating in the interim and careful refeeding.
Although he probably knows more about dryfasting than anyone else in the world he seems to prefer a vegetarian way of eating.
Dry fasting will definitely speed up the process.
If you live in America look up ASTR (advanced soft tissue release therapy). It will break up scar tissue and trigger points in your rotator cuff muscle and help you heal much faster.
