The research coming out is pretty compelling.
There would likely be an insulin sensitizing effect, akin to metformin, which has some positive impact on mood.
Also, some of the ketone bodies produced during a fast, have anticonvulsant, effects.
Supposedly too, there is a boost in stem cell regeneration and/or improved learning / neurogenesis.
Who knows. Worth a whirl.
