All Things Fasting (Oct '23)

There are three ways we can work with food: we can change what we eat, how much we eat, or when we eat. All three are important but fasting is that underutilized third level-when we eat. There is a growing body of research showing that fasting can be of benefit in conditions as different as weight loss, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disease, adjunctively in cancer treatment or post-treatment, and generally in overall health and longevity.

We’ll cover all the facets to fasting, including ‘time-restricted eating’ (essentially a longer overnight fast), 24-hour fasts weekly or biweekly, OMAD (one meal a day), what has been termed a ‘fasting-mimicking diet’ (which is essentially a specific low-calorie diet for 5 days a month), 3 consecutive days of fasting monthly or quarterly, and various other programs in between. The classes will provide a group learning experience for individuals interested in various forms of fasting and will equip you with the skills to start exploring fasting for yourself at your own pace. It is a program rich with learning and practical applications.

Each of the four 90-minute sessions is conveniently online. The class is scheduled 4:30-6:00 pm PST on Tuesday, October 10, 17, 24, November 7. The course is open to anyone who would like to attend.

If you are a patient of Dr. Lukaczer, it can be billed directly to your insurance plan (co-pays and deductibles apply). You can find a list of insurances taken by clicking here. If your insurance is not listed, or are not a current patient, the cash price is $325, and payment is due in full prior to the first class for cash participants. Class size will be limited to 15 and registration ends October 5. To get the full benefit of the group experience, these classes will not be recorded so live participation is required.
