Fasting has been practiced across cultures and societies for centuries, and for a wide range of reasons.
For some, fasting is associated with religious and spiritual observances; for others, it is a health and wellness practice; while for many people, fasting is simply a natural part of their lifestyles.
Conversations relating to the ‘how’ and even ‘why’ of fasting also tend to be varied.
Despite its long history, questions surrounding its potential benefits, who should or should not fast, when to fast, and how long to fast continue to generate a wide range of opinions and differing perspectives.
In their documentary Fasting: The Healer Within, two Australian brothers take a deep dive into the practice of fasting, exploring fasting from various angles while featuring insights from experts who offer their knowledge and experiences.
