Here are 2 studies concerning the relationship between nutrition and
circadian rhythm that were posted on the yahoo fasting group. I
checked to see if you all were members before posting this message and
I didn't see your names, so I assume that you have not seen the
posting. I feel it might be of interest to you as you have recently
stated that you have changed to a modified fast for your daily eating.
[In Erich's first message he made no connection with anything on the MoreLife or
SelfSIP websites as now required for acceptance of a post. However, even in this
second message, what Erich states is his *interpretation* of something he has
read from me and/or Kitty somewhere, rather than a direct quote of text with a
link for verification. Thus, this is akin to hearsay, rather than any direct
connection to either what is on the MoreLife website or what has previously been
posted and related to the MoreLife website, as is now our mandatory posting
requirements.
I am not merely being picky here. The purpose of the strictness of this
requirement is not only to publicize links to the MoreLife website and hopefully
encourage others to join in helping to improve it, but even more importantly to
teach all readers of MoreLife the skills and methods of scientific factual
citation of evidence for every statement that is made, most particularly instead
of some likely inaccurate and possibly erroneous or misleading paraphrasal.
The particular places where we have stated something related to Erich's "you
have changed to a modified fast for your daily eating" are at least twofold:
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/morelife/message/1543
wherein nothing was stated about fasting, and
http://morelife.org/personal/health/dietregimen.html
where under the section "Calories and Us" intermittent fasting and our change to
one meal per day are both mentioned. And there is more again about one meal per
day and fasting in the section of that same page "Our Meals, Wherever &
Whenever".
There is also some information about the theory and benefits of fasting, the
negatives of snacking and consideration of the number of daily meals on the Use
of Food page: http://morelife.org/food/index.html but no mention there about our
own personal application of this information.
If Erich got his information about our stated practices from somewhere else then
he needs to provide a link to that source. --Paul]
