Fasting for Health: The Forgotten Achievements of Soviet Medicine

Fasting is commonly feared and avoided. Hunger is a disaster caused by severe social upheavals, resulting in deprivation, suffering, and death for many people. It seems utterly inconceivable that anyone could fast voluntarily.
However, this is the case!
The author of this book, Doctor of Medical Sciences Yuri Sergeyevich Nikolayev, is the founder of the method of unloading-diet therapy (UDT), also known as therapeutic fasting.
In the Soviet Union, anyone willing could be treated with this method simply by visiting their therapist. Many patients with bronchial asthma, hypertension, stomach ulcers, and diabetes received not a prescription for pills but a referral to the nearest UDT clinic.
The healing results are remarkably high and surpass the success rates of all other therapeutic methods.
And today, you have the opportunity to recall this unique experience by embarking on a kind of journey through time, learning about the connection between UDT and longevity, and obtaining precise practical recommendations for alleviating chronic diseases, some of which are considered incurable (such as Bechterev's disease).
By reading this true alphabet of therapeutic fasting, you will change your perspective on your own body and come to appreciate the Russian saying: "Hunger is not an aunt, but a mother".
