Health Tip: Fasting

However, increasing this fasting window by even just a few hours can provide a multitude of health benefits. Mike Mallin, MD, shares the basics of fasting, including why fasting is beneficial, the difference between time-restricted feeding and periodic fasting, and who should or should not consider adding fasting to their routine.
