Join HELPcare Group Fast III

By Lee Aase • July 8, 2024

We're holding our third group fast this week to provide support, encouragement and motivation for HELPcare Challenge participants and others who want to take their experience of fasting up a notch.

After a long holiday weekend that likely included some dietary indulgence for most of us, now's a great time to climb back on the wagon, and fasting can give you a quick boost!

Limit When you Eat (another way of saying "fasting") is one of 10 elements of HELP: The Health, Energy & Longevity Plan, which is the health improvement guide Dr. Dave Strobel and I developed as we were conceiving HELPcare three years ago.

You can get your free copy by signing up for a website account and taking this eLearning course.

Or read Chapter 6 — Limit When You Eat, which we published as part of our HELP Explained series. And for more inspiration, check out these related HELP Explained posts:

Stretch Your Fasting Experience

Our HELPcare Clinic passion is building relationships with our members and helping them take charge of their health and their health care.

That's why we include metabolic health coaching in HELPcare Premier membership and have developed HELPcare Challenge with Coach Jane Connell to provide education and expert guidance along with peer support for lifestyle changes.

It also led us to sponsor HELPcare Group Fasts for the HELPcare Challenge participants and for anyone else who wants to join.

HELPcare Group Fast III is this week! Start whenever it works for you, and try to push your fast just a bit further than what you've done previously:

  • If you typically struggle with late-night snacks, shut your eating window after dinner and do a 12-hour daily fast.
  • If you ordinarily fast overnight, try pushing breakfast to noon and make it a 16-hour fast.
  • If 16 hours is your norm, see if you can stretch it to 24.
  • If you've previously fasted for a day or more, consider a three-day fast.

My wife Lisa and I have been doing three-day fasts roughly every other month. It's a great way to reboot your immune system, and as indicated in the articles linked above, it has likely benefits for cancer prevention and longevity.

I started this fast Sunday at 6 p.m. and plan to go until Wednesday at 6, with just black coffee and electrolytes.

You can start whenever you're ready, and end when it feels like it's time.

Fasting is free, and it actually pays! You save money by fasting since you don't have to pay for food. There's no charge for HELPcare Group Fast III either. Just get your free website account.

I hope you'll join us and share your experience in our online support group!
