Episode Description from the Publisher

Fasting, intermittent fasting, calorie deficit diets, autophagy, gut resets, Navratri fasting, GLP-1 -- GI expert Dr. Shubham Vatsya gives Indians the most complete, honest science of fasting in one episode. Hindus fast for Navratri. Muslims fast for Ramzan. Celebrities swear by intermittent fasting. Scientists have won Nobel Prizes studying it. And yet fasting remains the most misunderstood health tool available to every single Indian -- for free. In this episode of Doctor Vs Internet, Senior Health Editor Sonal Mehrotra Kapoor sits down with Gastroenterologist Dr. Shubham Vatsya to break down exactly what fasting does to your body, who should do it, how to do it correctly, and why most Indians -- despite fasting their whole lives -- are getting no benefit from it at all.Tune In!Produced by Areeb RazaSound mixed by Suraj Singh
